VP Harris to Guatemalen Pres. (seen that look at :20 before...😏)




"Vice President Kamala Harris tells the Guatemalan President to his face that political corruption, violence against lgbt people and Afro-descendants are some of the root causes of migration to America."

"She adds that The Biden-Harris administration is willing to provide aid to help with these issues. Noting it won’t be solved overnight."

"Let's send in government-trained death squads" approach.

Any medical provider will tell you: "Don't treat the symptom; treat the underlying problem."

Good for VP Harris. She's doing an amazing job.

Her background gives this particular mission a necessary edge.

Bet she's got a big stick next to her soft spoken speech, too~
Thank you VP !
