At the Summit of the Americas, Belize Prime Minister Johnny Briseño and Argentine President Alberto Fernandez criticized the Biden administration for excluding certain nations from the event.

Alberto Fernandez, the former head of the State Department's counter-messaging campaign against ISIS, admitted that the U.S. is losing the online propaganda war. He criticized the administration's response as "limited and weak" compared to ISIS's 90,000 Twitter accounts. Fernandez noted that many are attracted to ISIS for what they perceive as "noble reasons," such as building a new society.

Argentine President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner backtracked on her initial claim that prosecutor Alberto Nisman committed suicide, now stating she is convinced he was murdered. Nisman was investigating the 1994 AMIA bombing and had accused the President of trying to cover up Iranian involvement in exchange for trade deals. The hosts note the role of social media in forcing the President's change of stance.
