Please, I beg you, watch and share this video

I'm sorry I'm unable to post the video here. The link takes you to Univision, It is a series of very powerful pictures showing a mother and her toddler from when they arrive to the border to the moment they are being separated.

The narration is in Spanish, but the pictures speak for themselves and the whole thing only lasts for a couple of minutes.

Please, watch and share!

Yes, we are supposed to be a major humanitarian country of the world, but what do Honduras' Pres. Juan Orlando Hernández, VP Ricardo Álvarez Arias and President of National Congress,
Mauricio Oliva have to say to the world? They actually allow the world's highest murder rate and high levels of sexual violence in their country. What the hell for.

The president is some "businessman." The country is called a "presidential republic," whatever that means. Sounds like some dictatorship to me.

Honduras is Mestizo. Is this some ethnic cleansing? What is the Big Central American Exit all about. Are globalists really allowing this humanitarian crisis to continue WITHIN the country in the name of "just business"??

This is what a State Department is supposed to handle. This is when we need a State Department, not some hollowed out shell of a shithole government.

Thank you for the post, Luna.
