Literally the first Greenwald article I came across in a Google search was propaganda:
https://theintercept.com/2019/12/16/evo-morales-interview-gl.... Greenwald heaps praise on Evo Morales, calling his ouster from the Presidency a “coup.” The story of Morales’ ouster is as follows:
1) In his first term, Morales pushes through a new constitution, which among other things dissolves the Bolivian Supreme Court. In its place, it creates a high court comprising judges elected from a slate of candidates appointed by the legislature controlled by his party. This constitution has a two term limit.
2) Morales runs for a third term, after getting the high court to rule that his first term didn’t count since it started before the new constitution.
3) In his third term, he solicits a public referendum asking whether the term limit should be waived to allow him to run for a fourth term. In a vote that had very good turn out, the people vote “no.”
4) Morales ignores the referendum. Instead, he goes back to the high court, which rules that the term limits violate Morales’ “human rights.” The court allows him to run for a fourth term.
5) Morales wins the election, but the Organization of American States releases a report finding “overwhelming evidence of vote rigging.” Massive protests start in response to the report.
6) Morales slowly loses the support of key institutions, including the police. Many members of his own party resigned. A major labor union called for him to resign.
7) The account is disputed at this point. Morales supporters contend that the military then withdrew its support and encouraged him to resign. Morales opponents say that he ordered the military to crack down on protestors, and they refused. Even taking Morales’ supporters at face value, at most what happened is that the military encouraged him to resign after he lost the support of key institutions and many members of his own party.
8) Claiming that he was deposed in a coup, Morales flees to Mexico.
9) Subsequently, Morales’ party basically told him not to come back.
Aside from hunting at the term limits, Greenwald mentions none of the real story.
