Videos of the Day: Trump Announces Aid Cuts as Caravan Continues North

President Donald Trump announced he will stop or reduce aid to the Central American countries of Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala for their failure to stop a caravan of an estimated 5,000 migrants moving towards the United States.

“Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador were not able to do the job of stopping people from leaving their country and coming illegally to the U.S.," he said in an Oct. 22 tweet. “We will now begin cutting off, or substantially reducing, the massive foreign aid routinely given to them.”

The halting and reduction of payments given to the countries begins on Oct. 18.

In 2017, the United States sent about $530 million in aid to the three countries. Around a million of their citizens have been apprehended by Border Patrol trying to enter the country illegally since 2013.

The large tip was left with a note that said “Thanks for the delicious water.”

Two men at a nearby table were filming Custer’s reaction because the customer who left the money is a famous youtube personality, Mr. Beast.

“Good people are still doing good things these days so I thought it was really, really cool. I’ve seen some really big tips but not $10,000 so this was totally out of the blue, once in a lifetime, this will never happen again in my lifetime, ” said Bret Oliverio, the owner of Sup Dogs.
