President Donald Trump sent more than 5,000 troops to the border to halt migrants’s attempts to enter America.
Rihanna used her social media platforms to address the U. S. Border Patrol’s treatment of migrants aiming to enter America from Mexico. After news broke of how U. S. Border Patrol agents fired tear gas at migrants, including children, the singer-turned-businesswoman referred to their acts as « terrorism. »
Rihanna, who’s been appointed as the ambassador of her native country Barbados, is no stranger to political matters. She sent a cease-and-desist letter to President Donald Trump in early November after he played her music at one of his rallies. She also rejected the opportunity to perform during the Super Bowl LIII in February 2019 out of protest for Colin Kaepernick. Now, the 28-year-old « Wild Thoughts » songstress took to Instagram to share her thoughts on the U. S. Border Patrol’s actions.
On Sunday, she posted a screenshot of a tweet shared by the Associated Press’s Mexico Correspondent Chris Sherman. « US Border Patrol has just launched tear gas into Mexico, » Sherman tweeted Sunday.
