A lot of the people who have been paying attention to Haiti for years and years and years,

their frame of reference is what happened in 2004, they see him and they think, oh, he's CIA still,

he's reprising his same old role and this whole thing of like Gee

Philippe and barbecue who carried out that La Saline massacre. This is all a sigh up and this is all being orchestrated by the CIA and all the

Haitians are just screwed because of it. I don't think that's who Gee

Philippe actually is anymore in the sense that he does have real constituency he was

screwed by the US he was basically thrown in jail on a plea deal from money

laundering charges he was accused of drug trafficking but he took a plea deal to basically get out in several years.

He got out of jail a few months ago and then was sent back to Haiti.

And he also talked.

Oh, he was in jail in the US. He was in jail in the US. And so what happens with

Haitian citizens that are in jail in the US as soon as you're let out you get

deported back to Haiti. He's now back in Haiti and talking about revolution and an uprising and all of these things.

And so he and Cheriezier are both on the same wavelength and they're not part of this whole Kingston-Caricom Presidential Transitional

Council which is like the obvious US tool so yeah what will happen from here is anybody's guess.

How may understand this because Karakam picks their candidates.

I get that, but is there not still going to be an election?

What they say is we'll have an election in like two years, you know, with a guarantee of an

election in like 18 months or two years.

That was the same way they got Ariol on Rein.

He kept promising, I'll have elections next year, next year. And you know, he'd

kick the can down the road and never have elections.
