2 Americans Are Among Those Arrested In The Assassination Of Haiti's President
NPR ^ | July 8, 20214:37 PM ET

Two men believed to be Haitian Americans — one of them purportedly a former bodyguard at the Canadian Embassy in Port au Prince — have been arrested in connection with the assassination of Haiti's president, a senior Haitian official said Thursday.

Prime Minister Claude Joseph assumed leadership of Haiti with the backing of police and the military and on Thursday asked people to reopen businesses and go back to work as he ordered the reopening of the international airport.

On Wednesday, Joseph decreed a two-week state of siege following Moïse's killing, which stunned a nation grappling with some of the Western Hemisphere's highest poverty, violence and political instability.

Inflation and gang violence have spiraled upward as food and fuel grew scarcer in a country where 60% of Haitians earn less than $2 a day. The increasingly dire situation comes as Haiti is still trying to recover from the devastating 2010 earthquake and Hurricane Matthew in 2016 following a history of dictatorship and political upheaval.

Drag a few billion dollars thru a Hatian trailer park and you've got a dozen Clintonista bag men on the hook where the billions used to be.

Analogy credit to Mr. James Carville with all his observational wisdom.

"...following a history of dictatorship and political upheaval."

More precisely, "following a history of dictatorship, political upheaval, and RICO-level crimes by the Clinton crime family"...

"There is this void now, and they are scared about what will happen to their loved ones," said Marlene Bastien, executive director of Family Action Network Movement, a group that helps people in Miami's Little Haiti community.

She said it was important for the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden to take a much more active role in supporting attempts at national dialogue in Haiti with the aim of holding free, fair and credible elections.

LMAO. Such irony. Joe O'Biden helping with the aim of holding free, fair and credible elections!

I wonder if china paid them to crate instability that results in a pro-china dictator?

Whatever happens, this only means one thing: More Hatians coming to the US. Just what we need.

An earlier report said two of the assassins were dressed as US DEA agents.

And now we hear that two of the assassins were Americans. Make of that what you will.

Maybe the next el Presidente of Haiti will remember the Hillary rules. Pay to play. Don’t forget the kickbacks. Or else.
