The president of Haiti told the speaker he thought he was going to be killed or taken away, but the speaker dismissed it. The president, Aristide, was then deposed and flown to the Central African Republic on an unmarked CIA plane. The U.S. ambassador walked him to the plane in broad daylight. The speaker, an economic advisor and friend, called the New York Times reporter on the beat to cover the coup. The reporter said her editor was not interested.

Haiti's history reveals a pattern of external interference hindering its progress. As the first black republic formed by rebelling slaves in 1804, Haiti posed a threat to colonial powers. France demanded reparations for lost property, plunging Haiti into long-term debt. The US invaded and occupied Haiti for 20 years starting in 1915, seizing gold reserves and imposing forced labor, leading to decades of dictatorship. During the Baby Doc era, neoliberal policies harmed Haitian farmers, creating slums and low-wage factories. The Lavalas movement emerged, seeking a new Haiti. Jean-Bertrand Aristide's election in 1990 offered hope, but a coup ousted him months later. After a period of military rule, Aristide returned but faced constraints. Despite reforms under Aristide and Preval, external pressures persisted. In 2004, a US-backed coup removed Aristide again. UN forces occupied Haiti, and paramilitary groups terrorized the population. Elections were held, but Lavalas was excluded. The 2010 earthquake and subsequent cholera outbreak exacerbated the situation. Michel Martelly's election followed intervention by Hillary Clinton. The cycle of external interference continues to impede Haiti's progress towards democracy and economic stability.

Haiti has one of the largest gold mines in the Caribbean, but no one is talking about it. Tony Radham, Hillary Clinton's brother, has a 26-year contract related to this gold. Haiti used to produce its own rice, but Bill Clinton destroyed the rice production so his brother could sell rice from Arkansas. Millionaires or billionaires who want to do business in Haiti cannot do anything unless they check with the Clintons. The Clintons are running Haiti.

The devastating earthquake that ravaged Haiti killed more than 316,000 people, leaving at least a million homeless. Critics have faulted the efforts of international donors, including The US, for failing to deliver on pledges while exerting excessive control of the reconstruction process. Former president Bill Clinton has played a major role in relief efforts serving as the UN special envoy to Haiti and as co chair of the interim Haiti recovery commission. Through his Clinton Foundation, the former president has helped fund a number of projects in Haiti. The Nation magazine’s investigation focuses on the Clinton Foundation’s first recovery commission project in post‑earthquake Haiti, the construction of shelters in Laogan, announced in a video on his foundation’s website. “My foundation has contributed a million dollars there to the construction of emergency storm shelters in Laogan.” After the outbreak, “my foundation responded allocating a million dollars to the government so that we can move supplies down there in a hurry.”

The Clintons have been devastating Haiti for decades, posing as friends while exploiting our resources. After the earthquake, billions in aid poured in, but Bill Clinton controlled the funds, and much of it never reached the people. We have oil, gold, and other resources, yet Tony Rodham, Hillary's brother, has a 26-year gold mining contract. The Clintons control business in Haiti, undermining our sovereignty. They're stealing our money and resources, and even creating instability. We are outraged by their crimes. They portray Haiti as poor to steal from us, but we are rich. I'm ready to die to expose the Clintons and their corruption. This must end.

They say "a decision has been made at the highest levels of our government to rid Guatemala of the R. V. S. Regime" and you will be "the chief of propaganda and political action." They claim "the CIA ... mobilize every facet of American power" and "used the techniques of social psychology" to create a "sense of crisis in Guatemala" to terrify troops "much as the German Stuka bombers terrified" Europe. They assert this was "so that The United States could control the economy of Guatemala, destroying the dreams of its people." "We sowed confusion through the countryside" with "aircraft flying over and dropping leaflets" and "doing a little harmless bombing." "A CIA terror campaign cost thousands of lives." Arbenz, "the Democrat now branded a communist," was "humiliated, stripped naked, and photographed before being forced into exile." Nixon "flew in to congratulate the new dictators." "General Rios Montt was to be one of Washington's faces of liberty" while thousands were murdered by death squads, most of them indigenous.

The speaker believes the Clintons have destroyed Haiti for decades, acting as enemies disguised as friends. While many know some people dislike Haiti, the Clintons are more dangerous because of their pretense. The speaker claims that the amount of money donated to Haiti after the earthquake was much larger than $6 billion, with Bill Clinton in charge. Despite the donations and Haiti's own resources, including oil reserves larger than Venezuela and one of the largest gold mines in the Caribbean, people still live under tents. Tony Rodham, Hillary Clinton's brother, allegedly has a 26-year contract related to Haitian gold. The speaker further alleges that Bill Clinton destroyed Haiti's rice production so rice from Arkansas could be sold there. The Clintons are said to control business in Haiti, requiring millionaires and billionaires to consult with them before undertaking any ventures.

US politicians accuse other nations of election meddling, but the CIA has a long history of interfering in foreign affairs through military coups. In one example, the CIA orchestrated the overthrow of Iran's prime minister for nationalizing the oil industry, leading to widespread violence and the installation of a US-friendly government. Declassified documents reveal the CIA's involvement in the coup, highlighting their use of propaganda and bribery. Despite claims of no longer meddling in elections, the CIA director openly admitted to continuing such actions for "very good reasons."

Here's a list of South American countries where the CIA has overthrown the government since 1947: Costa Rica in 1948. Guatemala in 1954. El Salvador in 1979. Nicaragua in 1981. Panama in 1989. Paraguay in 1954. Brazil in 1964. Peru in 1968. Chile in 1973. Uruguay in 1973. Argentina in 1976. And Venezuela in February 2002.

Speaker argues that 'the Clintons have destroyed Haiti for the decades' and that they 'pretend to be our friends when in reality, they are our number one enemies.' He claims 'the Clinton Foundation ... gave over $6,000,000,000 to Haiti' and that 'the money is much more than $6,000,000,000' with 'Bill Clinton in charge of the money.' He asserts Haiti has 'oil, more oil than Venezuela' and 'gold' with 'one of the largest gold mine[s] the Caribbean,' and that 'Tony Radham, Hillary Clinton's brother' holds a 'twenty six years contract.' He says 'Haiti used to produce our own rice' but 'Bill Clinton destroyed our rice so his brother can sell the rice from Arkansas.' The Clintons are claimed to be 'running Haiti' and that 'If there's a millionaire... they cannot do anything unless they check with the Clintons.' He urges self-governance, notes two Haitian factions.

"The first to be attacked was Guatemala, one of the small countries of Central America known dismissively as Banana Republics." "In fact, most of the people of Guatemala are not of Spanish descent. They're indigenous Mayan people and very poor." "In the nineteen fifties, 2% of the population of Guatemala controlled the natural wealth in collusion with giant US corporations like the United Fruit Company, which dominated banana growing." "On the board of United Fruit was John Foster Dulles, who happened to be US Secretary of State. His brother, Alan, happened to run the CIA." "Both were Christian fundamentalists who regarded any opposition as the work of communism and the devil." "In 1950, this man, Jacabo Abenz, became the first Guatemalan leader to be democratically elected by a majority of his people who saw in him the hope of social justice."

Well, we have every reason to be mad because the Clintons have destroyed Haiti for the decades. And, you know, they pretend to be our friends when in reality, they are our number one enemies. The money is much more than $6,000,000,000. Bill Clinton was in charge of the money. Haiti have oil, more oil than Venezuela. Tony Radham, Hillary Clinton's brother. He's got a twenty six years contract. Bill Clinton destroyed our rice so his brother can sell the rice from Arkansas. The Clintons are the one who's running Haiti. We are the first black people who liberate ourselves from from the French rule. They dropping disease in Haiti. They they stealing our money. This have to stop.

Speaker 0 argued that Maduro was not democratically elected and was not cracking down on drug trafficking to the U.S. and other countries, contrasting this with Honduras’ crackdown on drug trafficking supported by agencies like the DEA and Southcom, which earned praise for the Honduran government. The discussion then turned to U.S. policy. Speaker 0 asked whether the interviewee supports what the Trump administration did, or believes there is a line that should not be crossed. They noted that the U.S. military action against Maduro—bombing the country, entering, capturing Maduro, killing members of his government, and taking him to jail—was seen by some as positive, with Maduro described as a criminal who destroyed the country and economy. Speaker 1 responded by focusing on the human impact in Venezuela and other Latin American countries. They stated that a large portion of the population has suffered, with a notable number of people migrating from Venezuela and Honduras. They asserted that elections in Venezuela were stolen by Maduro’s regime, stating that the opposition’s poll results were stored in the cloud and the government did not want to see them because they knew they would lose. They described this as not democracy. They added that, since Hondurans left the country due to trafficking, vessels by sea and illegal flights were bringing jobs to Honduras, but also causing deaths and bloodshed. They argued that if the Trump administration framed Drug Trafficking as terrorism, it was warranted because the drug flow to the United States harmed not only U.S. citizens but also Honduras, which faced the highest death toll in fifteen years due to drugs coming through its borders, largely from Venezuela, and that nothing was done about this by prior administrations. Speaker 0 then asked for the stance on U.S. intervention in general: should intervention be allowed only in certain cases (e.g., Maduro), or should there be no U.S. intervention in Latin America under any president? Speaker 1 shared a Venezuelan friend’s view that there are no options to change Venezuela and that intervention might be necessary if there is no other way to save Venezuela. From a Honduran perspective, they believed Trump’s actions helped not only Honduras but also other Central American and regional countries along the drug-trafficking routes, by reducing corruption, bloodshed, and deaths. They argued that the political machinery Chavez created and used to stall elections in other Latin American countries had previously gone unchecked by the U.S., and that Trump faced Maduro with a confrontation. They concluded that many people in the world do not know what has been happening in Venezuela and its impact on the region. They stated that Trump confronted Maduro, who now has a chance to defend himself in a trial, and emphasized the issue of sovereignty for every country.

Speaker 0 asks about the organizing principle behind the activism, noting a lack of a specific list of grievances beyond longtime Democratic criticisms, and wonders if there is something truly animating the movement. Speaker 1 responds with the hammer analogy: for thirty years since the end of the Cold War, the instrument used to overthrow democratically elected governments has been that a country with an autocracy may have voted for its leader, but it functions like an autocracy. This justifies overthrowing governments that people voted for in the name of democracy, with examples including Hungary under Orban, which is hugely popular but autocratic, and El Salvador, where protests faded once USAID money stopped. The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, embraced the shutdown of USAID, which has been used to influence internal politics there. A notable article in Notice about four months earlier defended USAID employees and warned the Trump administration that shutting down USAID would be a big mistake because it would unleash professional government toppling specialists. This professional class is described as a career path to learn how to network with organizations that topple governments on behalf of the State Department, the CIA, USAID, and their donor-drafted class in private equity, hedge funds, and multinational corporations that profit from post-coup governments. Speaker 1 explains that activists label these efforts as “no kings,” attempting to frame the issue as autocracy. He notes the irony that these activists are partnered with global networks in Canada and the United Kingdom that have kings, and they have had to rebrand in different countries. He recounts a scene in London where their network protested outside the US embassy, shouting “no US kings,” while in the same context they themselves are connected to monarchies. He emphasizes the incoherence of the current stance, especially given that we are less than a year out from a sweeping democratic victory—control of the House, the Senate, the electoral college, and a popular vote—defined as the opposite of a king-like monarchy. Speaker 1 concludes by saying that with only a hammer, everything looks like a nail, and that all these NGOs are set up for democracy promotion against autocracy, which is how they obtain 501(c)(3) tax-deductible status. They must label regimes as autocracies even if they are far from that description.

Speaker 0 describes a long, forty-year conflict described as a Third World War waged by the CIA and the U.S. National Security Complex against people of the Third World, not the Soviets. He states that at least six million people have been killed in this war. He emphasizes that these are not Soviets and notes no parachuting into the Soviet Union to kill since 1954, when the Soviets developed the capability of dropping atomic weapons on the United States. He references CIA, Marine Corps, and three CIA Secret Wars. He recalls his 1975 position as chief of the Angola task force within the National Security Council, describing it as the third CIA secret war he was part of. He mentions the National Security Act of 1947 creating the National Security Council, and the CIA being given a charter to perform duties and functions necessary to national security interests, with vague authority to protect sources and methods. He says, in the mid-80s, he coined the term the Third World War after realizing the U.S. was not attacking the Soviet Union but people in the Third World. He characterizes the Third World War as the third bloodiest war in history, with operations conducted globally and a license to kill, smuggle drugs, and violate international law and principles of nations working together for a healthier and more peaceful world. He alleges the U.S. legal system was being converted to give the CIA control of society. He notes there is massive documentation of CIA secret wars, citing the Church Committee investigation of 1975, which found 900 major operations and 3,000 minor operations in the fourteen years prior. Extrapolating over the forty-plus years of CIA activity, he claims 3,000 major operations and over 10,000 minor operations, all allegedly illegal and disruptive to other societies, with many bloody and gory. He asserts the CIA organized the overthrow of functioning constitutional democracies, created secret armies, and directed them to fight on multiple continents. He claims the agency encouraged ethnic minorities to rise up: the Mosquito Indians in Nicaragua, the Kurds in the Middle East, the Hmongs in Southeast Asia. He alleges death squads funded by the CIA, such as the Treasury Police in El Salvador, responsible for most of the 50,000 killed in the 1980s, and 70,000 before that. He describes orchestration by the CIA through secret teams and propaganda, leading to involvement in the Korean War and attacks on China from Quemoy and Matsu, Thailand, and Tibet. He notes drug trafficking, the Korean War resulting in about a million deaths, and the Vietnam War, with CIA involvement at every level, contributing to the creation of the Golden Triangle and the Golden Crescent, where heroin became a major outcome, with Air America aircraft shipping arms for allies and returning with heroin, and claims President Carter and Admiral Turner brag about the Afghanistan operation as the largest CIA secret war operation in history. He concludes that the Golden Crescent remains the largest source of heroin today. He summarizes that the Third World War, waged by the CIA, the U.S. National Security Complex, and the military, has resulted in widespread devastation, especially in the Third World, as opposed to Europe where there is no equivalent destructive capability. He notes that those regions rarely have the means to hurt the U.S., questioning the motive of targeting those who cannot defend themselves.

The speaker addressed the Security Council on the issue of whether any member state may determine Venezuela’s political future by force, coercion, or economic strangulation, stressing that the question concerns the prohibition on the threat or use of force against a state's territorial integrity or political independence under the UN Charter. The council must decide whether that prohibition is to be upheld or abandoned. Background is offered on U.S. foreign policy, described as repeatedly using force, covert action, and political manipulation to achieve regime change since 1947. The speaker cites Lindsay O’Rourke’s documentation of 70 attempted U.S. regime-change operations between 1947 and 1989, noting that such practices continued after the Cold War. Regime-change actions attributed to the United States since 1989 include Iraq 2003, Libya 2011, Syria beginning in 2011, Honduras 2009, Ukraine 2014, and Venezuela from 2002 onward, employing methods such as open warfare, covert operations, instigation of unrest, support for armed groups, manipulation of media, bribery, targeted assassinations, false flag operations, and economic warfare. These measures are described as illegal under the UN Charter and typically yielding ongoing violence and civilian suffering. Specific Venezuelan-related actions cited include: the April 2002 coup attempt known to the U.S.; funding of civil-society groups engaged in anti-government protests in the 2010s; sanctions following crackdowns; in 2015, President Obama labeling Venezuela an “unusual and extraordinary threat”; in 2017, President Trump discussing invasion options at a UN General Assembly margin dinner. Between 2017 and 2020, sweeping sanctions on PDVSA reduced oil production by 75% from 2016 to 2020 and dropped real GDP per capita by 62%. The UN General Assembly is said to have repeatedly voted against unilateral coercive measures, and the speaker asserts that under international law only the Security Council may impose such measures. On January 23, 2019, the U.S. unilaterally recognized Juan Guaidó as interim president and soon after froze about $7 billion of Venezuelan sovereign assets abroad. The actions are framed as part of a two-decade-long regime-change effort. The speaker notes U.S. bombing operations in seven countries in the past year without UN Security Council authorization or lawful self-defense, listing Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and Venezuela, and cites threats by President Trump against six UN member states, including Colombia, Denmark, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria, and Venezuela. The speaker invokes realist theory and the League of Nations’ failure, arguing the UN was created to place international law above anarchy and urging that failure to uphold the Charter would threaten humanity. The proposed resolutions call for: the United States to cease all explicit and implicit threats or use of force against Venezuela, terminate the naval quarantine and related coercive measures without UN authorization, withdraw all military forces and forward-deployed assets from Venezuela’s vicinity, and require Venezuela to adhere to the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The secretary-general should appoint a special envoy to engage Venezuelan and international stakeholders and report back within fourteen days with Charter-consistent recommendations; the Security Council should remain urgently seized of the matter. All states should refrain from unilateral threats, coercive measures, or armed actions outside the Security Council’s authority. The speaker closes by emphasizing that the UN Charter must remain a living instrument of international law.

We've set out to overthrow functioning constitutional democracies in over 20 countries. We manipulated elections in dozens of countries. We created standing armies and directed them to fight. We went after to organize ethnic minorities to encourage them to revolt. In Nicaragua, "the Mosquito Indians ... given them more money than they had seen in the entirety of history and arms and training" were sent into Nicaragua to attack, kill, fight, rape, burn, pillage. This is an insidious thing. "This has been a technique the CI has used in Nicaragua, in Thailand, in Vietnam, in Laos, in The Congo, and in Iran Iraq with the Kurds." We created, trained, and funded death squads like the treasury police in El Salvador that are responsible for killing as many as 70,000 people according to the count of the Catholic church. "We've assassinated world leaders, including The United States president in 1963." Chile 1973: CIA organized the overthrow of Salvador Allende, Allende killed, Schneider killed, Pinochet in power. Kissinger: "the issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves." "6,000,000 people killed" minimum; "22,000 in Nicaragua"—mostly "rag poor peasants, including a high percentage of women and children."

Haitian activists protested outside Hillary Clinton's Manhattan office, accusing the Haiti Reconstruction Commission, led by Bill Clinton, of stealing billions of dollars. They alleged that foreign governments used Haiti as a cover to funnel kickbacks, possibly totaling hundreds of millions of dollars, through the Clinton Foundation. The activists claimed that these actions were done in exchange for favors Hillary did as secretary of state. Their goal was to inform Americans about these crimes and discourage them from voting for Hillary if she runs for president. In January, they also rallied outside Bill Clinton's office in Harlem.

Haiti's gold mine is controlled by Tony Rodham, brother of Hillary Clinton. He has a 26-year contract. Haiti used to produce its own rice, but it was destroyed so Rodham could sell rice from Arkansas. The Clintons control business in Haiti, with no one able to operate without their approval.

Haiti's history is marked by both resilience and external interference. Following a successful slave rebellion in 1791 that led to independence in 1804, Haiti faced international isolation and a demand from France for reparations, crippling its economy for decades. In 1915, the US invaded and occupied Haiti for 20 years, seizing gold reserves and imposing forced labor. The Duvalier dictatorship, supported by a US-trained army, further terrorized the population. The rise of the Lavalas movement and the election of Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1990 offered hope, but a coup, backed by wealthy families and the army, ousted him. After Aristide's return, he was later removed again in 2004, in a move many see as a coup supported by the US, Canada, and France. This was followed by a UN military occupation and the installation of an interim government. Subsequent elections were controversial, and the country continues to struggle with poverty, corruption, and external interference, hindering its progress towards true democracy and self-determination.

The speaker argues that whenever a country defends its own people, the United States asks, “Who owns the resources?” and if the answer isn’t The US, a coup follows. The claim is that over 80 foreign governments have been overthrown or destabilized by the United States, and that most of them weren’t dictatorships, but democratically elected governments that threatened US corporate profits. The described playbook involves the CIA funding opposition groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda, planting stories in the media, bribing generals, arming rebels, or collapsing a country’s economy, with the coup replacing the leader with a pro-US dictatorship. The overarching assertion is that this is not about democracy but about power and control. Key historical examples cited include: - Iran in 1953: Mosaddegh attempted to nationalize oil; the CIA launched Operation Ajax, orchestrated protests, paid off politicians, and installed the Shah, resulting in twenty-five years of dictatorship and torture under US protection. - Guatemala in 1954: President Arbenz redistributed land from the United Fruit Company, a US corporation; the CIA branded him a communist, conducted a coup, and Guatemala descended into a civil war with over 200,000 deaths. - Chile in 1973: Allende was overthrown in a US-backed military coup, and Pinochet’s regime tortured and killed thousands after Allende’s attempts to nationalize copper. - Congo in 1961: Lumumba sought African control of African resources; the CIA helped orchestrate his assassination and installed a brutal dictator who was supported for decades. The speaker adds that there are “dozens of others” beyond these cases, including Haiti, Iraq, Libya, Nicaragua, El Salvador, the Dominican Republic, Brazil, Bolivia, and beyond, arguing that the motive is not fighting tyranny but profits and control. When a country attempts to exit the system or nationalize resources to reduce inequality, they threaten profits and the idea that another world is possible, so the CIA sabotages such efforts to prevent successful example-making, such as Libya. The conclusion is that many nations don’t trust the United States because “we’ve been the villains throughout most of our history.” The speaker invites readers to comment to receive a “forbidden reading list” of books and documentaries that “they never wanted you to find.”

Haiti has one of the largest gold mines in the Caribbean, but nobody is talking about it. Tony Radham, Hillary Clinton's brother, has a 26-year contract regarding this gold. Haiti used to produce its own rice, but Bill Clinton destroyed the rice industry so his brother could sell rice from Arkansas. Millionaires or billionaires who want to do business in Haiti cannot do anything unless they check with the Clintons. The Clintons are running Haiti.

Haiti's history is marked by both resilience and external interference. As the first black republic, Haiti posed a threat to slavery and colonialism, leading to international efforts to stifle its progress. France demanded reparations for lost property, plunging Haiti into long-term debt. The US invaded and occupied Haiti for 20 years, seizing gold reserves and imposing forced labor. The Duvalier dictatorships further terrorized the population. Aristide's election in 1990 offered hope, but a coup ousted him. Clinton negotiated his return, but with constraints. Preval's presidency saw progress, but external pressures persisted. The US and Canada withheld aid, and Canada participated in meetings discussing regime change. Paramilitary forces destabilized the country, culminating in Aristide's removal in 2004. UN forces then occupied Haiti. Elections were held, but Lavalas was excluded. The international community backed Martelly's presidency, and he revived the army. The 2010 earthquake and subsequent cholera outbreak exacerbated the situation. Despite these challenges, Haitians continue to strive for democracy, equality, and a better future, facing persistent social injustice and external control.

Speaker 0: We've set out to overthrow functioning constitutional democracies in over 20 countries. We manipulated elections in dozens of countries. We created standing armies and directed them to fight. We went after to organize ethnic minorities to encourage them to revolt. The first thing we did in Nicaragua was to go to the Mosquito Indians who had never gotten along with the other people in Nicaragua very well and give them more money than they had seen in the entirety of history and arms and training and rationales and sanctuaries in Honduras and sent them into Nicaragua to attack, kill, fight, rape, burn, pillage. And this has been a technique the CI has used in Nicaragua, in Thailand, in Vietnam, in Laos, in The Congo, in in Iran Iraq with the Kurds in different parts of the world. We created, trained, and funded death squads like the treasury police in El Salvador, and we've assassinated world leaders, including The United States president in 1963, and I'll get to that in more detail in just a moment. You can never be sure how many people are killed in the jungles of of Laos or the hills of Nicaragua, but adding them up as best we can, we come up with a figure of 6,000,000 people killed, minimum figure. It has to be more than that. These things are all done in countries of the third world where the governments don't have the power to force The United States to stop destabilizing the country and brutalizing their people.

In 2014, riots known as the rebellion occurred in Ukraine, but it was not widely known that the US was financing these riots. The riots led to a coup against Ukraine's democratically elected government, which refused to align with the West. A month before the coup, a secret call between Victoria Nuland, a high-level official in the State Department, and the US ambassador was recorded and made public. In the call, they discussed choosing a new cabinet for Ukraine, essentially picking a US-backed government before the old one was overthrown. This raises questions about democracy and the role of organizations like USAID and the CIA, which have a history of overthrowing governments, including democracies.
