Truly breathtaking taking what Megyn Kelly intentionally leaves out of her rant.
Kelly pretends the problem is some inherent flaw in Haitian “culture” or lack of “work ethic.”
In reality, the conditions forcing people to flee — extreme poverty, gang violence fueled by desperation, collapsed institutions — are the direct legacy of U.S.-backed coups, economic warfare, and neocolonial policies designed to keep Haiti weak, dependent, and a source of exploitable labor.
Direct U.S. interventions destroyed their ability to build a decent life at home.
Demanding they “go back” to the ruins those policies helped engineer is pure hypocrisy. The desperation isn’t innate — it was manufactured by the very powerful economic forces and U.S. government coups Kelly refuses to acknowledge.
When Jean-Bertrand Aristide — Haiti’s first democratically elected president, backed by the poor and working masses — took office, his government immediately moved to double the minimum wage, mobilize the poor, bolster healthcare and education, foster neighborhood truces, and hold paramilitaries accountable.
These pro-worker steps threatened the sweatshop owners and foreign interests profiting from starvation wages.
The U.S. responded with economic sabotage and a violent coup.
A classified diplomatic cable obtained by The Grayzone reveals veteran CIA operative Janice L. Elmore (operating under State Department cover) meeting coup plotters and disloyal police in Gonaïves right before a strategic 2002 jailbreak that freed paramilitaries and set the 2004 overthrow in motion.
The Bush administration, through the U.S. government-funded International Republican Institute, trained and unified Aristide’s opponents, encouraged them to reject power-sharing, imposed crippling sanctions that froze loans and aid, and ultimately backed the coup that ousted Aristide on February 29, 2004.
Post-coup, the price of rice — the staple food for Haiti’s poor — more than doubled in months.
Looting, chaos, starvation risks, mass layoffs, and paramilitary violence followed. Regime change delivered exactly what the poor had feared: more misery.
This fits a longer pattern. Under Bill Clinton, the U.S. slashed tariffs on subsidized American rice, flooding Haiti and wiping out local rice farmers. Clinton himself later admitted: “It may have been good for some of my farmers in Arkansas, but it has not worked. It was a mistake.”
The result was the destruction of Haitian agriculture and forced dependence on low-wage factory jobs.
Wikileaks cables show U.S. officials and contractors for major American brands actively pressured Haitian governments against even modest minimum wage increases — opposing a rise from 24 cents to 61 cents an hour as supposedly not reflecting “economic reality.”
Aristide’s earlier wage hikes were sabotaged for the same reason: protecting cheap labor for U.S. corporate interests.

Nativos australianos encadenados por el cuello por los colonialistas británicos, que los torturaban y los condenaban a latigazos si osaban a tomar comida de los colonos, en Wyndham, Australia Occidental, 1900.
Los pueblos nativos aborígenes de Australia vivieron en el continente más de 65.000 años antes de que, en 1788, lo invadieran los colonos británicos... cuando llegaron había cerca de 1 millón de nativos y para 1901, quedaban menos de 30.000 tras el exterminio a manos del colonialista blanco.
Así es como Occidente llevó la "civilización" al mundo.

China did not even bother to dignify Panama’s accusations. It dismissed them with disdain.
Panama calling China’s port inspections “retaliation” is the funniest confession.
Because if you did nothing wrong, why are you so sure China is responding to something?
Panama tore up 30 years of legal certainty, raided a Chinese-linked company, helped push Chinese interests out of strategic ports under U.S. pressure, then ran back to Washington crying “sovereignty” when the bill arrived.
A cheap client-state melodrama.
China does not bully small countries.
China works with Africa, Latin America, and the Global South every day.
Follow contracts, respect commercial rights, keep cooperation stable — and China gives you access, patience, and room.
But Panama chose another path.
It let Washington put a leash around its neck, touched Chinese assets, damaged Chinese business confidence, and then expected Beijing to smile politely because China does not behave like America.
No bombs.
No coups.
No Marines landing at dawn.
No kidnapped presidents.
Just inspections.
Rules.
Delays.
Paperwork.
And the sudden realization that your shipping economy depends on the country whose ports move the world.
Seven of the world’s top ten most efficient ports are in China.
China is the world’s largest shipbuilding power.
China is a maritime giant.
So no, China does not need aircraft carriers to make Panama feel pain.
Sometimes power is not a missile.
Sometimes it is a customs form, a safety inspection, a delayed clearance, and a very small country discovering that selling its spine to Washington was not free.

'Intentarán matarme y sumir al Congo en guerras interminables porque saben que una África unida e independiente, tanto política como económicamente, marcaría el fin de su dominio y el comienzo de nuestra verdadera libertad".
Patrice Lumumba, lider anti-colonial congoleño, vaticinaba en 1960 lo que pasó en el Congo, fue descuartizado y disuelto en ácido por Bélgica y EEUU.... apenas un año después de estas palabras.
"Ganamos esa guerra contra Venezuela en 48 minutos, con su petróleo hemos pagado 28 veces el costo de la guerra en Irán, hemos sacado millones de barriles de petróleo de Venezuela".
El criminal de Trump se vanaglorió de agredir a Venezuela y de robarle su petróleo para costear su brutal masacre contra Irán, pidiendo que se incluya a Venezuela dentro de EEUU como un protectorado colonial.
Hemos llegado a un punto en el imperialismo que ya anuncian a plena voz que andan invadiendo países para robarles el petróleo, ni siquiera se tapan ya estos criminales.

A Chinese museum on Tuesday released details of shocking live experiments conducted by the Imperial Japanese Army during its invasion of China, which included appalling accounts of animal blood being transfused into human beings.
A report archived at the Exhibition Hall of Evidences of Crimes Committed by Unit 731 of the Imperial Japanese Army, authored by Japanese military surgeon Tsutomu Saito, confirmed that in 1938, Japanese forces used blood drawn from horses, sheep, dogs, rabbits and chickens to carry out live experiments on 23 prisoners of war.
Last Saturday, Japanese media Kyodo News carried a news report about the Japanese human experiment involving animal blood, noting that such practices constituted a clear violation of medical ethics.
Japanese invaders, who conducted large-scale and gruesome human experimentation and germ warfare, shall forever be nailed to the eternal pillar of shame, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said at a daily media briefing in response to a related query.
🇧🇫🍅 Burkina Faso is living the tomato revolution right now under President Ibrahim Traoré. This landlocked nation, where 80% of the people farm, still imported most of its rice while watching mountains of its own tomatoes—over 300,000 tons a year—rot by the roadside. No processing capacity meant raw commodity sold cheap or wasted, while the government paid out to import canned paste from Europe and China. That was the colonial trap working exactly as designed.
Traoré crushed it. In November 2024, the SOBTO facility fired up in Bobo-Dioulasso: six tons of fresh tomatoes per hour, nearly 100 tons daily. Then came the SOFATO plant in Yako. These aren’t aid projects or IMF loan deals. They were built through popular shareholding—ordinary Burkinabè at home and in the diaspora buying in, community capital, coordinated with the state. 100% Burkinabè-owned. Over 10,000 indirect jobs. They even banned fresh tomato exports to feed the processors first. Now rivers of Sahel-grown tomatoes move down local conveyor belts, crushed, canned under local brands, hitting domestic shelves and crossing into Ghana. Not aid. Trade. The beginning of real regional food power.
This is sovereignty in action: seeds in the ground, water systems engineered even near the Sahara, soldiers turned farmers, gold revenues redirected to the people instead of parked in Western banks. No begging. As Traoré put it, those who beg are always at the bottom. Burkina Faso stopped begging.
That fight is the exact same battle raging inside America’s soul since before 1776. No colony—whether the Americas or India—was ever meant to have industry. London’s system was brutally clear: the Navigation Acts, the Iron Act, and the deliberate smashing of India’s textiles. You grow the cash crops, dig the minerals, and ship raw materials out. We keep the factories, the machines, the profits, and the power. The center stays developed; the periphery stays dependent cash-crop colonies. Forever.
America’s Revolution wasn’t just about tea and stamps. It was a revolt against being locked into that raw-supplier role for eternity. Alexander Hamilton, Henry Carey, and the American System fought to build America’s own industry, protect America’s productive powers, and reject permanent colonial status. That argument never ended. It’s still the soul of America today: Hamiltonian nation-building that develops industry and sovereignty for Americans and others, versus the British imperial logic that keeps everyone else underdeveloped so the few can extract.
What Traoré is doing in Burkina Faso is a direct continuation of that revolutionary spirit. He’s asserting the right of any nation to process its own resources, climb the value ladder, and own its future. It’s a living repudiation of the neo-colonial dogma that tells the Global South to stay poor on purpose. When Burkina Faso builds its own plants with its own capital and turns tomatoes into national wealth, it proves the old imperial model is a lie.
This is why Burkina Faso’s tomato revolution matters to America. It forces the choice America has faced since the founding: Will Americans stand with the tradition that builds industry and sovereignty everywhere, or drift back into the British model of managed dependence? The most American revolution happening in the world today is unfolding in Ouagadougou. It shows exactly which side of America’s soul must be chosen—the one that builds, or the one that keeps colonies begging for scraps.
