Hot Takes: Choose Who?
FUN FACTS:
– In 2009, Hillary Clinton, acting as Secretary of State under the Obama administration, supported the Honduran coup against democratically elected president, Manuel Zelaya, resulting in a right-wing regime that targeted and murdered multiple activists, including Berta Cáceres.
– Acting in response to Central American unaccompanied minor surge in 2014, Barack Obama initiated Plan Frontera Sur, an agreement with the Mexican government to escalate the campaign of terror against Central American migrants., laying the groundwork for the future Trump Administration.
– In an attempt to stem the flow of migration from Central America, then vice-president Joe Biden was the biggest proponent and promoter for the Alliance for Prosperity, a $750 million economic package for Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras. Most of that “economic aid” went straight toward the further militarization of these countries.
