(1/5) Good to see #Bolivia's new leftwing president, Luis Arce, appoint military & police leaders, after the former commanders had supported the 2019 coup.

The new police chief is Jhonny Aguilera Montecinos, who was purged after the coup for being too close to the elected gov't https://twitter.com/jncatron/status/1328495648124137472
(2/5) I imagine they've been vetted well, but it's still important to watch & be cautious. It appears that the newly appointed Chief of Staff Miguel Ángel Contreras did a 1996 course on Psyops at the US military's School of the Americas (SOA).

(3/5) It appears that Cesar Moises Vallejos Rocha, the newly appointed commander of the Air Force, has been living in Washington DC & was air attache in Bolivia's DC embassy in 2016.

(4/5) Recall Bolivia's military head Williams Kaliman flipped last year, from gov't supporter to coup backer (& he had attended the SOA in 2003). Putschist Police commander Vladimir Yuri Calderón Mariscal had been working in DC w/ the FBI: https://twitter.com/JebSprague/status/1194710802168610816
(5/5) US intel (DIA, CIA, NSA, FBI, and often working alongside its allies) consistently targets military & police command structures for info gathering, influencing &/or joint ops.

Another example of this is in Haiti, which I have documented in detail: http://monthlyreview.org/press/books/pb3003/
