Summary:
In this episode, we detail Nicaragua's transition to authoritarian rule under Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo's co-presidency. Constitutional reforms have concentrated executive power, dismantling checks and balances and suppressing opposition. This has resulted in widespread human rights abuses, media censorship, and economic instability. International condemnation and sanctions have followed, yet the regime persists. The future of Nicaraguan democracy remains uncertain, with a possible trajectory of deepening authoritarianism or a potential resurgence of democratic resistance
