We learned this week that missionaries and other Americans are trapped in war-torn Haiti. One group reached out to the Biden administration for help. But the State Department refused, claiming it was “too dangerous.”
It is unknown how many Americans are currently stuck in Haiti. But a violent gang wars threatens the lives of every person on the island.
Another group of Americans, visiting an orphanage, reached out to a Republican congresswoman for help. She contacted Cory Mills, the Florida Republican who rescued Americans from Afghanistan and Israel. This is what he did in just days.
From The Post Millennial:
Florida Representative Cory Mills has stepped up yet again to help his fellow Americans stuck overseas in times of crisis, this time conducting an independent rescue mission in Haiti with the help of Michigan Representative Lisa McClain.The Republican congressman and his team managed to bring ten Americans working at an orphanage in Port au Prince back home, including author Mitch Albom, who has run the institution since the 2010 earthquake and was visiting at the time.
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.

After the Biden administration refused to help Americans stranded in Haiti, Cory Mills managed to get ten out of Port au Prince. The city is where the gang war is at its worst. Somehow, the Republican congressman was able to secure a helicopter and airlift these Americans to safety.
One of the people was author Mitch Albom, who runs an orphanage of about 60 children. He and nine other Americans were visiting the facility, when the war broke out.
Criminals captured the airport, preventing anyone from leaving. Other Americans had asked the State Department for help. But Biden’s administration seems unwilling to help anyone, even it seems members of its own embassy.
While Biden does nothing, Rep. Mills found a way to save these Americans. And he continues to work to find ways of helping other Americans stranded.
Biden has discussed welcoming as many as 40,000 Haitian refugees. Yet he has no plans to help the hundreds of Americans stuck in Haiti.
Key Takeaways:
- Republican Rep. Cory Mills airlifted ten Americans stranded in Haiti.
- This comes after the Biden State Department refused to help those in need.
- Mills has also rescued Americans from Afghanistan and Israel.
