Amid the rapidly deteriorating political climate in Haiti, the Biden administration has dealt with this crisis in a disgraceful manner that resembles the reprehensible handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. While the current situation in Haiti has resulted in an increasingly lawless country, the Biden administration has continued its pattern of abandonment by failing to take appropriate action to rescue trapped American citizens. However, one congressman, Rep. Cory Mills from Florida, has risen to the occasion and taken action to rescue ten American citizens from Haiti, providing a glimmer of hope in an otherwise dire situation.
Mills, a veteran who served in Iraq with the 82nd Airborne Division, has once again demonstrated his commitment to protecting American lives by organizing a rescue mission for the Americans trapped at the Have Faith Haiti orphanage in Port-au-Prince. This rescue also included prominent Detroit Free Press columnist, Mitch Albom, and his wife, who were visiting the orphanage run by his charity when the situation in Haiti became untenable. It is commendable that Mills has stepped up to rescue fellow Americans and protect their lives when the administration has seemingly abandoned its responsibility to do so.
This is not the first time Mills has organized a rescue mission for Americans in peril. In 2021, he coordinated efforts to extract Americans from the chaos in Afghanistan after the disastrous withdrawal led by the Biden administration. In 2023, he again demonstrated his dedication to fellow Americans by facilitating the safe return of stranded citizens from Israel during a period of heightened tension in the region. These actions by Mills highlight his unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of the American people, even when the government has failed to provide necessary support.

Mills has criticized the Biden administration for its lack of action in rescuing American citizens and its repeated pattern of abandonment. He asserts that under Biden’s leadership, American lives are constantly endangered, with the government failing to fulfill its duty to protect its citizens. In this latest crisis in Haiti, once again, the administration quickly evacuated its embassy staff and their families while ignoring the pleas of stranded Americans. It is unconscionable that the government has left its citizens to fend for themselves in dangerous and volatile situations.

GOP Rep. Lisa McClain of Michigan was also heavily involved in the rescue mission, with eight of the ten Americans being from her district. She learned about Albom’s situation from a constituent and immediately began making calls to assist. McClain and Mills have worked together on previous rescue efforts and have once again successfully collaborated to save American lives from precarious situations. However, it is unfortunate that the State Department is not providing the necessary resources and support to protect its citizens in these crises.
The Biden administration’s lack of concern for American citizens in these international crises is deeply troubling. It is concerning that they prioritize illegal immigrants and foreign policies over the safety and well-being of their own citizens. With multiple crises occurring during Biden’s term, including Ukraine, Afghanistan, Israel, and Haiti, it is a damning indictment of his leadership that Americans are consistently disregarded and abandoned in these situations. It is unacceptable that the government is failing to fulfill its responsibility to protect its citizens and provide necessary assistance in dangerous situations.
Biden administration’s handling of the situation in Haiti, along with previous international crises, demonstrates a clear disregard for the lives of American citizens. It is a testament to the bravery and dedication of individuals like Reps. Cory Mills and Lisa McClain that American lives are being rescued amidst the chaos and failures of the government.
I am proud to report that my team and I were successful in evacuating and rescuing a trapped, and at risk group of Americans from ‘Have Faith Orphanage’ in Haiti last night.
This recent mission reiterates a disturbing reality that under President Biden’s leadership American…

These rescue missions highlight the urgent need for the Biden administration to prioritize the safety and well-being of its citizens, rather than perpetuating a pattern of abandonment and neglect. It is time for the government to fulfill its duty to protect American lives and provide necessary support in times of crisis.
