When I was at the Hospital as a result of my accident on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, and then surgery later, they were already trying to kick me out of the Hospital on a Friday. Don't get me wrong, I don't know about other people, but the food was delicious and everyone was friendly. But isn't someone's health more important than the type of insurance and their economic status? Kicking people out of the hospital very quickly, no matter how severe their incident was. I said that, after I expressed that concern to many people, I was given testimonies from different people that I was not the only one who had this experience. Then examples were given to me. What is going on at the Hospitals in the United States? The reason that my stay at the hospital was extended longer was because I was not able to complete all of the therapy exercises, and most importantly, because I didn't keep my mouth shut; I spoke up! In conclusion, that was an American Experience about greed and money!

Just days after U.S. authorities unsealed an indictment and offered $5 million for information leading to his arrest, Haitian gang leader Jimmy "Barbecue" Cherizier has broken his silence on social media.

In a video posted to what appears to be his TikTok account, Cherizier claims he is willing to "collaborate" with the FBI but only under one condition: "They stop the lies," he says.

Cherizier, the former police officer turned gang leader, is accused of funneling money from the U.S. to support violent operations in Haiti, including paying gang members and purchasing illegal firearms. He has been under U.S. sanctions since 2020 and is linked to the 2018 La Saline massacre.

But now, facing terrorism charges and a global manhunt, Barbecue is pushing back publicly.

The security firm of former U.S. Navy Seal Erik Prince will soon deploy nearly 200 personnel from various countries to Haiti as part of a one-year deal to quell gang violence there, a person with knowledge of the plans said Thursday. Prince guaranteed that his team can defeat most the gangs in 1 year. After the 1 year is up, they will still be there for 10 years help fight any remaining opponents that may recruit themselves and try revive to bring back terrors upon the Haitian people and the Haiti Government.

The deployment by Vectus Global is meant to help the government of Haiti recover vast swaths of territory seized in the past year and now controlled by heavily armed gangs, said the person, speaking to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the plans. Another reason why they will be in Haiti for 10 years is because Americcan company has signed a contract with the Haitian Government for 10 years.

The company, which provides logistics, infrastructure, security and defense, is run by Prince, a major donor to U.S. President Donald Trump. Prince previously founded the controversial security firm Blackwater. Can Blackwater keep its word and defeat the gangs within 1 year?

President Donald Trump shared on social media the "peace letter" from first lady Melania Trump that was hand delivered to Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska on Friday, August 15, 2025. "Every child shares the same quiet dreams in their heart, whether born randomly into a nation's rustic countryside or a magnificent city-center. They dream of love, possibility, and safety from danger," Melania Trump's letter begins. Well, this got me asking these questions: What about all of the children in Palestine and Haiti that are dieing? When this letter was written, was it to make a mockery out of us who are watching all of this theater?

Donald Trump wants to put an end to mail-in ballots. Trump has repeatedly called for an end to mail-in voting, claiming it's susceptible to fraud and corruption. He claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent. Which makes him not trust machine or electronic voting. Despite Republicans advocating that it is safe to continue electronic voting, he doesn't want to listen and still wants to pursue this plan.

Springfield faced a crisis after Donald Trump falsely claimed Haitians were eating pets. Now his policies are driving out workers like Wilford Rinvil, who left for Canada. Mr. Rinvil was among more than 10,000 Haitians who in recent years settled in this working-class city of 60,000. They were welcomed by a Republican governor and business leaders who needed workers to power companies that had been enticed to invest millions here. Over the last four years, Springfield had rebounded, thanks in large part to the arrival of Haitian immigrants. For four years, Mr. Rinvil, a Haitian immigrant, had pressed steel into car parts at McGregor Metal. While the work was grueling, it offered a stable income, health insurance, and a 401(k).

Because Haitian immigrants are a specific target in Springfield, Ohio, the economy will go down, workers are scared to go to work, and people's Temporary Protective Status (TPS) and work permits are set to be terminated in February 2026. All immigrants who are not United States citizens are affected, too. Many times, because of prejudice from ICE agents, you may get arrested. You may be a target because of how you look, behave, dress, speak, where you live, etc. After you get arrested, you may be released because they found out that you are a U.S. citizen. Furthermore, you may get released from prison or the Immigration Detention Center, but the damage has already been done. So, my advice: Sue their ass!!!!!

Last week, the US government confirmed to CNN that it had ordered naval movements in the region to contain the threat from drug trafficking groups. On Monday, Reuters reported that three US Navy destroyers and some 4,000 military personnel would arrive at the edge of Venezuela's territorial waters within the next 36 hours.

As a result of that move by the United States, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro announced on Monday, August 18, 2025, the deployment of 4.5 million militiamen throughout the country, assuring that "no empire will touch the sacred soil of Venezuela," after the United States doubled the reward for information leading to his arrest and increased the number of troops sailing around Latin America and the Caribbean.
