As gangs take over the island nation of Haiti, having blocked the return of the U.S.-installed Prime Minister, Ariel Henry, the country has devolved into chaos and indiscriminate killings –– akin to the movie franchise, “The Purge.” Erik explains how U.S. State Department official Brian Nichols, a career diplomat responsible for the Caribbean, blocked a plan by Haiti officials in 2023 to correct the exorbitant purchase price Haiti pays for fuel that generates their electricity to fund a national security force. The Biden solution to the depraved, gang-run port and streets of Port-au-Prince? Contracting a security force from Kenya, a deal that PM Henry was negotiating before his return to the country was blocked and he had to take refuge in Puerto Rico.
