On Sunday, November 25th, US officials fired tear gas at migrants, including women and children attempting to breach the US/Mexico border. Gas canisters and pepper balls were also used, leaving children gasping for breath and traumatized. Trump strongly defended the use of the gas; indeed he lied, saying several border patrol agents were badly injured by the migrants. Tear gas is considered a chemical weapon under international law. Our guests are David Abud with Pueblos Sin Fronteras, who is currently at the US/Mexico border, and Pedro Rios, director of the US-Mexico Border Program at the American Friends Service Committee.

An uprising continues in Haiti as protesters hit the streets calling for the ouster of US-selected and backed President Jovenel Moise as well as calling for accountability for the disappearance of over $3 billion dollars in PetroCaribe. PetroCaribe is money from Venezuela to assist the Haitian people. Our guest is Pierre LaBossiere of the Haiti Action Committee.
