No one publishes a 30-year total, but roughly $30 billion in international aid and peacekeeping has gone to Haiti since the mid-1990s, not counting the many charities, large and small, that have operated there:

• 2010–2018: $11.6 billion in foreign aid after the earthquake
• 2019–2023: about $4.5 billion more
• 1994–2009: an estimated $6–10 billion
• Peacekeeping: $7.2 billion for the 13-year MINUSTAH mission

Purchased was a capital 90% controlled by gangs - with the nation not providing security, water, electricity, or garbage collection.

Today, Haitians are helping Salvadoran patrols and pastors are advocating Bwa Kale. El Salvador, the smallest country on the American mainland, will achieve success in three weeks or three months rather than three decades, because it follows a different path: The path of God.

The international community, and the academics who supported them, should write another report, this time on why their recipe was so poisonous to everyday Haitians, in Haiti and everywhere else it has been applied.

Ningún análisis le hace justicia a esta declaración, y ningún medio se la hará jamás, pero demuestra por qué más del 95% de los salvadoreños ama a su Presidente. Es un liderazgo con un profundo contexto histórico, donde Dios y la justicia son los únicos intercesores. En 1816, el Presidente de Haití, Alexandre Pétion, le dio a Simón Bolívar refugio, barcos y armas cuando nadie más lo hizo, pidiendo solo que liberara a los esclavizados. (Bolívar comparte cumpleaños con el Presidente @nayibbukele.) Haití ayudó a liberar a América Latina. Hoy El Salvador le devuelve el favor, honrando las palabras de Martin Luther King Jr., "La injusticia en cualquier parte es una amenaza para la justicia en todas partes", y, aún más importante, honrando al pueblo haitiano.

La historia recordará estas palabras. Pocas veces una nación le habla a otra no como conquistador ni como acreedor, sino como un vecino que ha caminado por la misma oscuridad. Sin reclamar tierras, sin reclamar riquezas. Solo un país pequeño, pagando con sus propios y modestos recursos, ofreciendo lo que aprendió de su propio sufrimiento: que la paz y la justicia no tienen precio. La verdadera fuerza está en la humildad, y la verdadera grandeza en servir a quien no puede pagarte. Me enorgullece servir bajo el Presidente @nayibbukele.

We finished the gangs in El Salvador.
We can finish them in Haiti too.
President @nayibbukele has over 95% support here because he treats crime effectively—street gangs and politicians alike—for the citizens.
Many Haitians in the street already support him. Soon he will have 95% of them too.
One objective: bring our four technicians home alive. No empty threats.
I support the President.

Dear Ambassador Duncan, thank you for your tireless work on behalf of El Salvador. Your dedication has made a lasting impact, and it was deeply meaningful—for both my wife and me—to share in a relationship marked by such mutual respect and purpose with you and Nora.

We hope you remain close in geography, but regardless of distance, please know that you will always remain close in our hearts.

@nayibbukele And Iron workers work hard for livin'

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@nayibbukele As a signatory CA Union contractor, I saw Oakland & SF Ironworkers exploit immigrant labor—denying them healthcare, retirement & annuities. When these workers were deported under Obama, the unions pocketed the benefits. They didn’t stand up—they cashed in. #LaborJustice #TVPA

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@nayibbukele

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@LeadingReport The TVPA clearly targets enablers of human trafficking. If judges won’t enforce it due to politics or support for popular malcontent—as seen in Soros-backed agendas—Rep. Chris Smith and Congress must clarify the law. Justice should never be optional. #HumanTrafficking #TVPA

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@JDVance Hopefully, the U.S. will partner with El Salvador in leading the Americas toward true sustainable development—through security and growth. The Bretton Woods model has failed. Look at the collapse of nations of the Americas-starting with Haiti, with Colombia picking up pieces.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@msandoval2548 @USEmbassySV @nayibbukele @DeputySecState @USAenEspanol @PresidenciaSV @StateDept @WHAAsstSecty With El Salvador recognized by the new U.S. administration as a most favored nation, expect hemispheric security standards to rise. Other nations may soon face pressure from their citizens to follow El Salvador’s lead.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@msandoval2548 @USEmbassySV @nayibbukele @DeputySecState @USAenEspanol @PresidenciaSV @StateDept @WHAAsstSecty Don't worry about buying land in El Salvador's poorest areas. Crime is down, and freedom has boosted property value. President Bukele's reforms have created a culture hard to reverse. But beware: enemies like certain media & Soros-backed groups aim to undo these gains.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@JDVance Salvadorans are too respectful and patriotic to engage in this kind of behavior.
They would never disgrace their country.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@JXWrite @nayibbukele The TVPA allows DOJ to prosecute not only traffickers like Abrego Garcia, but also those who fund, enable, or profit from trafficking—like Soros-backed media networks or unions using illegal labor. Under 18 USC §§ 1591, 1594 & 1595, willful blindness is no defense.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@elsalvador @nayibbukele Yes, the president has demonstrated to the world that the term sustainable development is functionally implemented as security and development.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@EricLDaugh Poor seniors just earning a little extra retirement money. NGO's that are funding this mess are the same ones that have supported terrorists and poor workers alike coming into the country.

[David Rivard @DavidRivardSV]

@nayibbukele I am so happy that we have a Gulf of America, and soon a "Security and Development Plan for America". For America, that spans from Pole to Pole.
