Real Talk with Marissa Streit | PragerU
Panama City Mayor Mayer Mizrachi joins this NEW Episode of Real Talk to explain why Panama matters far more to America than most people realize. We discuss the history of the Panama Canal, America’s role in Panama’s independence, and the rise of Chinese influence across Latin America. President Trump’s focus on the canal signaled that America was finally paying attention to this important small country because of its strategic location. Mayor Mizrachi also shares his remarkable personal story of surviving illness, political persecution, and six months in a Colombian maximum-security prison before becoming the mayor of Panama City. 00:00 Why Panama Matters to America 00:59 The U.S., Colombia, and the Birth of Panama 03:57 Is American Intervention Always Bad? 08:06 Why Trump Focused on the Panama Canal 10:35 China’s Growing Influence in Latin America 13:28 Who Controls the Ports Around the Canal? 17:20 The Panama Canal, Trade Routes, and Global Power 29:35 How Mayer Mizrachi Became Panama City’s Anti-Politician Mayor 37:12 From Political Prisoner to Mayor of Panama City 1:06:13 Why America First Cannot Mean America Alone Follow Marissa on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marissastreit/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/marissastreitofficial/ Twitter/X: https://x.com/marissastreit/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@marissastreit LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marissastreit/ PragerU: https://www.prageru.com/shows/real-talk/ PragerU Español: https://www.youtube.com/@esPragerU Listen to Real Talk with Marissa Streit on Spotify and Apple Podcasts New episodes drop every Wednesday!
