#PresidentTrump is poised to sign an executive ord

#PresidentTrump is poised to sign an executive order directing Education Secretary Linda McMahon to initiate the process of dismantling the U.S. Department of Education, according to sources familiar with the matter. The draft order instructs Secretary McMahon to close the department "to the maximum extent appropriate and permitted by law."⁠
⁠
This move aligns with a longstanding conservative objective of returning control of education to individual states and reducing federal oversight. The draft order asserts that federal programs have failed students, teachers, and families and advocates for a decentralized approach to education governance. ⁠
⁠
Secretary McMahon, recently confirmed by the Senate, has reportedly informed her staff about the impending actions. However, fully dismantling the Department of Education would require congressional approval, necessitating a 60-vote majority in the Senate due to legal constraints on significant programs it manages. ⁠

#Haiti has taken a step toward improving regional

#Haiti has taken a step toward improving regional connectivity with the official inauguration of the upgraded #AntoineSimon International Airport in #LesCayes. The airport, which is reported to have been expanded and modernized, is now capable of receiving international flights, offering a crucial alternative to the country’s main airport in #PortauPrince, which remains affected by security concerns.
The upgrade was formally launched on March 5, 2025, by #LeslieVoltaire, President of the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT), alongside key government officials, including the Ministers of Public Works, Economy and Finance, Trade and Industry, and #Culture and Communication. The improvements elevate the airport’s classification from category 2B to 3B, allowing it to accommodate aircraft carrying up to 80 passengers. The rapid runway expansion from 1,500 to 1,850 meters was completed in just ten days by the construction company Vorbe & Fils.
The airport opens when #ToussaintLouverture International Airport in Port-au-Prince faces severe disruptions. Ongoing gang violence has suspended commercial flights to the capital, prompting Haiti to seek new entry points for passengers and goods.
The situation in Port-au-Prince has cut off Haiti’s southern region from major economic hubs, worsening an already fragile humanitarian situation. With the expansion of Antoine Simon International Airport, local leaders hope to revitalize trade, tourism, and humanitarian assistance delivery to the South, which has long struggled with isolation due to poor infrastructure and security risks.
The airport’s expansion follows the January 17, 2025, opening of the South International Port in Les Cayes. Together, these projects aim to boost economic activity in the region, attract investment, and facilitate the movement of people and goods. Despite the improvements, it remains unclear when major airlines will begin offering commercial flights to Les Cayes. #lunionsuite #haitianamerican #haitian #caribbean

JetBlue Airways has announced an extension of its

JetBlue Airways has announced an extension of its flight suspension to Haiti's main international airport in Port-au-Prince. Initially set to expire on April 30, the suspension will remain in place until at least June 11, 2025.⁠
⁠
As the only U.S. carrier operating direct flights between #PortauPrince and #SouthFlorida and #NewYork, JetBlue's decision comes in response to Haiti's ongoing civil unrest. The airline's primary concern is the safety and well-being of its customers and crew members.⁠
⁠
According to a JetBlue spokesman, "Due to the ongoing civil unrest in #Haiti, we have made the decision to suspend all flights to and from the country through at least June 11, 2025. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and update our plans as necessary."⁠
⁠
The extension of the flight suspension coincides with the expiration of the Federal Aviation Administration's ban on U.S. commercial and cargo airlines on March 12. Meanwhile, Haiti's Transitional Presidential Council has announced the domestic airport in #LesCayes is now capable of receiving international flights, following a runway extension. ⁠
⁠
This development is seen as a significant step forward for the development of the South, which has been cut off from the capital due to criminal gangs controlling major highways.⁠

In a significant development, the #AntoineSimon Ai

In a significant development, the #AntoineSimon Airport in #LesCayes, southwestern #Haiti, is now ready to receive international flights. This milestone marks a safer option for commercial airlines that had halted flights to the main airport in #PortauPrince due to persistent gang violence.⁠
⁠
According to the AP, the renovated airport, named after a #Haitian president who led a rebellion in the early 1900s, has undergone significant upgrades since 2013, including extending its runway. This development is expected to boost the local economy and provide a new route for nonprofits to distribute much-needed aid. ⁠
⁠
The Antoine Simon Airport is Haiti's third international airport, and its reopening is met with excitement from locals and organizations operating in the region. Wynn Walent, executive director of the Colorado-based nonprofit Locally #Haiti, welcomed the development, stating that it could significantly promote economic growth and aid distribution in the south.⁠
⁠
Leslie Voltaire, president of Haiti's transitional presidential council, emphasized the importance of infrastructure development in driving economic growth. "Infrastructure is the basis of a country's economic development," he said during the airport's unveiling ceremony.⁠
⁠
The redevelopment of the Antoine Simon Airport is expected to promote tourism and economic development in Haiti's southwest. However, it remains to be seen whether U.S. commercial flights will utilize the new airport and whether any international flights have already landed on the extended runway.⁠
⁠
While the renovated airport offers a safer alternative, gang violence remains a significant challenge in Port-au-Prince. The Toussaint Louverture International Airport in the capital remains open, but commercial flights have been halted since November. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has extended its ban on U.S. flights to Haiti's capital until March 12.⁠

Multiple wildfires continued to burn across North

Multiple wildfires continued to burn across North and South Carolina on Wednesday, with the most significant blaze erupting over the weekend and prompting evacuations and a state of emergency. The largest of these fires, burning in the #Carolina Forest area near #MyrtleBeach, has consumed more than 2,000 acres and remained largely uncontained as of Tuesday afternoon. ⁠
⁠
Firefighting crews worked tirelessly to contain the numerous blazes across both states. As of Wednesday morning, officials in North Carolina reported approximately 130 wildfires, covering more than 1,800 acres. This marked a decrease from over 200 fires on Monday, according to the North Carolina Forest Service. The count included both reported and confirmed fires, with confirmed blazes categorized as active, contained, or controlled. A contained fire continues to burn but is no longer spreading, while a controlled fire has been fully extinguished. ⁠
⁠
South Carolina faced a similar situation, with around 70 wildfires recorded on Wednesday, down from more than 100 earlier in the week, per the South Carolina Forestry Commission. Like North Carolina, the state's reported figures encompassed all wildfire statuses, including ongoing and contained incidents. The Myrtle Beach-area wildfire remained among the most active as of Wednesday. ⁠
⁠
Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely as dry conditions and shifting winds pose ongoing challenges to containment efforts. Residents in affected areas are urged to remain vigilant and adhere to evacuation orders as necessary.

@DawnRichard, a #HaitianAmerican artist deeply rooted in #NewOrleans culture, continues to honor her city’s rich heritage through her involvement with the #WashitawNation, a prominent #MardiGras Indian tribe. In recent years, she has been honored with the title of "queen" within the tribe, marching alongside Chief David Montana during Mardi Gras celebrations. ⁠
⁠
For this year’s Mardi Gras, Richard unveiled a powerful new Indian Suit titled "Tears of Hope: Katrina 20", a tribute to the resilience, grief, and unwavering spirit of New Orleans in the wake of #HurricaneKatrina. ⁠
⁠
The suit embodies the city as a Black woman adorned in regal beauty yet weeping for the home she lost. Her embroidered tears carry the weight of 20 years of remembrance, mourning the devastation while honoring the strength of those who rebuilt. The intricate beadwork and bold colors transform sorrow into a vibrant display of culture, resilience, and pride.⁠
⁠
Richard expressed, “Tears of Hope is not just a suit—it’s a story, a tribute, and a reminder that even through loss, we rise.⁠

President #DonaldTrump signed an executive order d

President #DonaldTrump signed an executive order designating English as the official language of the United States, marking the first time in the nation’s history that such a declaration has been made. ⁠
⁠
The order, signed on Saturday, reverses a policy issued by former President #BillClinton, which required federal agencies to provide language assistance programs for individuals with limited English proficiency. While Trump’s directive eliminates that mandate, it does allow agencies to continue offering language support at their discretion. ⁠
⁠
"A nationally designated language is at the core of a unified and cohesive society, and the United States is strengthened by a citizenry that can freely exchange ideas in one shared language," the order states. ⁠
⁠
While more than 30 states have already designated English as their official language, Trump's executive order takes the policy to a national level. The decision comes as the number of people in the U.S. who speak languages other than English continues to rise. According to 2022 data from the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly one in 10 Americans now speak a language other than English, more than three times the percentage recorded in 1980. ⁠
⁠
Trump’s order aligns with a long-standing campaign promise and, according to the White House, aims to "promote unity, cultivate a shared American culture for all citizens, ensure consistency in government operations, and create a pathway to civic engagement." ⁠
⁠
Despite the administration’s justification, the executive order has drawn criticism from immigrant advocacy groups and civil rights organizations, who argue that it could disproportionately impact non-English-speaking communities. ⁠
