What Are These People Thinking?

 

                                    What Are These People Thinking?

Ms. Harris met with Guatemala’s former Attorney General Thelma Aldana, despite Ms. Aldana’s two outstanding Guatemalan arrest warrants on charges of corruption.

Former Guatemalan high-court judge Gloria Porras was at the same meeting, though there are scores of legal complaints against her at home for allegedly refusing to obey the constitution. These include complaints from a qualified majority of the association of representatives who drafted the constitution in the mid-1980s.

In 2014 and 2015, insiders at Guatemala’s National Registry of Persons and at the attorney general’s office presented evidence to Ms. Aldana suggesting that permanent residency cards were fraudulently issued for people from places like Kazakhstan, Russia, China, Iran, Libya and Syria. Such cards can be used to secure Guatemalan citizenship, which can then be used to apply for U.S. visas. Rather than investigate the person who signed those documents, Ms. Aldana promoted her to deputy attorney general.

Now Vice President Kamala Harris visits Guatemala as part of her laughable effort to address the “root causes” of migration from Central America’s Northern Triangle. Root causes are apparently not known by these people. And one of Ms. Harris’s "goals" is to drum up investment for the region.

Imagine. 

Presumably, investors will join right in with the corruption. And they will not be alarmed the fact that all the native citizens are trying to leave.
