On this day in 1954, CIA-sponsored Exile Army succeeds in overthrowing Guatemalaâs Jacobo Ãrbenz after major lobbying efforts by the United Fruit Company, an arm of US imperialism which John Foster Dulles owned major stock in.
Ãrbenz had become enormously popular, with an Agrarian Reform policy which saw uncultivated portions of large land-holdings expropriated in return for compensation and redistributed to poverty-stricken agricultural laborers. Approximately 500,000 people benefited from the decree.
Ãrbenz had threatened to nationalise the United Fruit Company, which was an arm of US imperialism exploiting Guatemala. John Foster Dulles owned significant stock in the United Fruit Company. The coup was led by CIA asset General Castillo Armas, what would follow would be 4 decades of US-backed brutality by successive dictatorial regimes, which fought to protect US interests. Among the horrors was the genocide of the Maya people.

2022 â In Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the U.S. Supreme Court rules that the U.S. Constitution does not assign the authority to regulate abortions to the federal government, thereby returning such authority to the individual states. This overturns the prior decisions in Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992).
