On Monday, November 18, #Haitian authorities officially inaugurated the "#Vertières" military base in Tabarre. The General in Chief of the Armed Forces of #Haiti (FAD'H), #DerbyGuerrier, emphasized the urgent need for government support and equipment to assist soldiers and the national police in reclaiming lawless areas and restoring peace for the population. ⁠
⁠
According to urban planner #LeslieVoltaire, the expansive facility spans several acres and can accommodate over 2,000 soldiers and war equipment, including helicopters.
This so-called development aims to bolster national security and stability that we have yet to see!!!!!!! ⁠😑🙄🤔

We understand the frustration and emotional respon

We understand the frustration and emotional responses surrounding this event, but as a community, it’s vital that we anchor our discussions in facts rather than assumptions. It’s easy to ask, “What are others doing?” but we must also ask ourselves, “What are we doing collectively to uplift our people and address our concerns?”
Here’s a detailed response from governmental consultant, speaker, and advocate @iamyola.marj offering insights on some of the various questions asked. And again we say, the clip that’s viral is a 30 sec close out of the event while the group in attendance take group photos. #lunionsuite #haitianamerican #whitehouse

On Monday, President-elect #DonaldTrump announced

On Monday, President-elect #DonaldTrump announced plans to declare a national emergency and leverage military resources to execute his mass deportation agenda, a core promise of his 2024 campaign. The announcement came via Trump’s social media post, in which he confirmed conservative activist Tom Fitton’s earlier claim that Trump would use military assets to address illegal immigration. ⁠
⁠
Trump’s proposals aim to target immigrants who violate U.S. laws, although critics argue that his rhetoric conflates border security with broader deportation policies. According to Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior fellow at the American Immigration Council, “The Trump administration is blurring the line between border enforcement and mass deportation efforts.” ⁠
⁠
During his first term, Trump declared a migration-related national emergency, reallocating military construction funds to erect barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border. His administration constructed over 400 miles of border fencing, although much replaced existing structures. ⁠
⁠
According to @USAToday, legal experts warn that U.S. law prevents the military from acting as a domestic police force, and #Trump’s proposed use of military assets for deportations would likely face significant legal challenges. The Brennan Center for Justice underscores that prior attempts to employ the military in immigration enforcement have drawn scrutiny and lawsuits. ⁠
⁠
The Trump-Vance transition team, represented by spokesperson Karoline Leavitt, stated, “Voters have given President Trump a clear mandate to deliver on his campaign promises, including decisive actions on immigration policy.” #lunionsuite #haitianamerican

Spirit Airlines has filed for bankruptcy protectio

Spirit Airlines has filed for bankruptcy protection due to mounting losses, growing debt, and fierce competition for budget-conscious passengers. The airline intends to continue its operations as it works through the restructuring process, assuring customers that flight services, bookings, and loyalty points will remain unaffected.⁠
⁠
As part of its strategy, #Spirit aims to reduce debt and boost its financial stability, aided by an additional $300 million from creditors. However, the airline's future remains uncertain, with the possibility of acquisition or liquidation if restructuring efforts fail. Spirit's past merger attempts with #Frontier and #JetBlue were blocked or unsuccessful, adding to the airline's challenges. #lunionsuite #haitianamerican

Today marks the anniversary of the historic Battle

Today marks the anniversary of the historic Battle of Vertière! 🇭🇹⁠ On November 18, we honor the anniversary of the Battle of Vertières, a monumental event in world history that symbolizes the unyielding fight for freedom and justice. This decisive battle fought in 1803, brought an end to French colonial rule in Saint-Domingue (modern-day #Haiti) and set the stage for Haiti to become the first independent Black republic in the world. ⁠
⁠
The #Haitian Revolution, one of the most significant uprisings in human history, culminated in the triumph at #Vertières. Under the leadership of #JeanJacquesDessalines, Henri Christophe, and others, Haitian revolutionaries achieved what many thought impossible: defeating #Napoleon Bonaparte’s formidable army. This victory not only abolished slavery in Haiti but also made a resounding declaration of the rights and freedoms of oppressed people everywhere. ⁠
⁠
The Battle of Vertières is celebrated in Haiti as a testament to the courage and resilience of its people. It stands as a beacon of hope for those who strive for justice and equality, reminding us that the fight for freedom is always worth pursuing. ⁠
⁠
Reflecting on this pivotal historical moment, we also celebrate Haiti’s profound legacy as a leader in the global fight for human rights and independence. Let us honor the sacrifices made on this day and the enduring impact of the Haitian Revolution on the world stage. ⁠
⁠
Haitian pride shines brightly today as we remember the extraordinary courage of those who fought for freedom against all odds. ⁠

A recent @WashingtonPost article examines the dete

A recent @WashingtonPost article examines the deteriorating conditions in Haiti amid growing political instability and violence, alongside the backdrop of Donald Trump’s return to power and his well-documented disdain for Haitians and migration from the island nation. The article provides a look at the potential implications of his presidency on U.S.-Haiti relations, particularly concerning immigration policies, humanitarian aid, and international security interventions. ⁠
⁠
The piece highlights Haiti’s worsening turmoil, describing a week filled with alarming events. The ruling council dismissed the prime minister it had appointed just seven months prior. Gangs expanded their control, forcing residents to flee the capital. Gunmen fired at commercial aircraft, prompting the closure of the international airport for the second time this year. ⁠
⁠
The article reminds readers of Trump’s prior remarks about Haitians, including false claims about them eating family pets in Ohio and his opposition to Haitian migration. During his first term, Trump showed little regard for Haiti, according to Pierre Esperance, director of Haiti’s National Human Rights Defense Network, who said, “He didn’t really care.” ⁠
⁠
Trump’s rhetoric and policies suggest mass deportations could resume, exacerbating Haiti’s instability by overwhelming the nation’s fragile infrastructure and cutting off vital remittances, which constitute about 20% of the country’s GDP. ⁠
⁠
The article also focuses on the uncertain future of U.S. support for the U.N.-backed, Kenya-led policing mission in Haiti. Analysts fear Trump’s administration could severely cut funding, pressuring other nations to shoulder more responsibility. Meanwhile, Cabinet nominees like Sen. Marco Rubio, Trump’s choice for secretary of state, are seen as likely to support harsher immigration measures rather than advocating for increased intervention in Haiti. ⁠
⁠
Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stated that the president-elect would “restore peace through strength,” but offered no specifics on whether that strength would extend to supporting Haiti or its people. ⁠

Jean-Victor Harvel Jean-Baptiste was formally inau

Jean-Victor Harvel Jean-Baptiste was formally inaugurated as head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Religious Affairs following a ceremonial handover organized by the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT). The event, held on Saturday, November 16, marked the leadership transition from outgoing minister #DominiqueDupuy to her successor, appointed by Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils Aimé and the CPT. ⁠
⁠
During her farewell address, Ms. Dupuy reflected on her tenure, saying, “In a forest on fire, I tried to bring a little water. My glass was not enough, but I tried to do my part.” She expressed deep gratitude for her four years and four months of service, first as ambassador and later as minister. Dupuy commended the dedication of the ministry's personnel and highlighted her efforts in promoting "uncompromising diplomacy to defend our dignity, sovereignty, and humanity." ⁠
⁠
In his first remarks as minister, Jean-Victor Harvel Jean-Baptiste extended his appreciation to the CPT, led by Leslie Voltaire, and to Prime Minister Fils Aimé for their confidence in his leadership. He acknowledged the work of Dominique Dupuy and emphasized his intention to rely on the commitment of the ministry’s team. ⁠
⁠
Jean-Baptiste career began in 1993 at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where he held pivotal roles, including Director General, Consul General in Montreal, and Chargé d'Affaires in Brazil. In 2001, he served as Chief Inspector General of the Haitian National Police and contributed to the Presidential Commission for the Relocation of Haitian-Dominican Border Markers. ⁠
⁠
He later held posts as Minister Counselor in Spain and Chile, where he was also named Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary. In 2016, Jean-Baptiste represented Haiti as Permanent Representative to the Organization of American States (OAS) in Washington, D.C. Upon returning to Port-au-Prince, he took on roles such as Chargé de Mission, Cabinet Director, and Director of Cabinet at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Most recently, he served as Director of Cabinet for the Presidential Transitional Council. ⁠
