    You are aware that part of the reason the protests are going on is due to "FOOD SHORTAGES"! SMH.....yeah, you guys have done SuCh A gReAt JoB at "improving food security" for Cubans.

    "Opens meaningful dialogue"????
    You are aware that the Cuban government has shut down most internet services and phone messaging services to try and stifle the "dissent" from it's citizens, and certain high-ranking politicians/ religious leaders/ community leaders on the island, aren't you?!? That's the opposite of "opening meaningful dialogue". LOL!
    Or are you just one of those "good canadian comrades" that turns a blind eye to the injustices and atrocities committed by a communist dictatorship, because your country "has a good deal going" with the shit-bags?

    Communism is Bad. Period!
    ... do you really think that Canada gives money without strings attached?

    If there is no progress on specific objectives, the funding stops.

    Do you have any proof that Canadian money lines of the pockets of Cuban politicians or are you just verbalizing stereotypes?

    What atrocities are you actually referring to? Or are you making that up as well?

    SACRAMENTO, CALIF. -- Two California men have been charged with plotting to blow up the Democratic Party's headquarters in the state capital, a bombing they hoped would be the first in a series of politically-motivated attacks, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
    The pair used multiple messaging apps to plan to attack targets they associated with Democrats after the November 2020 presidential election, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement. Their first intended target was the John L. Burton Democratic Headquarters in Sacramento, prosecutors said.
    "According to the indictment, the defendants planned to use incendiary devices to attack their targets and hoped their attacks would prompt a movement," the statement said.




    Ian Benjamin Rogers, 45, and Jarrod Copeland, 37, each face multiple charges including conspiracy to destroy by fire or explosive a building used or in affecting interstate commerce, prosecutors said.
    Rogers, of Napa, is charged with additional weapons violations, including one count of possession of unregistered destructive devices, and three counts of possession of machine guns. Copeland, of Vallejo, is charged with an additional count of destruction of records.
    It wasn't known Thursday evening if the men have attorneys who could speak on their behalf.
    "I want to blow up a democrat building bad," Rogers wrote, according to the indictment unsealed Thursday in San Francisco federal court. Copeland responded, "I agree" and "Plan attack," the indictment says.
    In late December 2020, Copeland told Rogers he contacted an anti-government militia group to gather support for their movement, according to court documents.
    In one exchange, Rogers wrote to Copeland, "after the 20th we go to war," meaning that they would initiate acts of violence after Joe Biden's inauguration on Jan. 20, 2021, the court papers say.
    On Jan. 15, law enforcement officers searched Rogers's home and seized a cache of weapons, including 45 to 50 firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition, and five pipe bombs, prosecutors said.
    Copeland is accused of attempting to destroy evidence of the plan after Rogers' Jan. 15 arrest.
    Rusty Hicks, chair of the California Democratic Party, called the accusations "extremely disturbing."
    "We are relieved to know the plot was unsuccessful, the individuals believed to be responsible are in custody, and our staff and volunteers are safe and sound," Hicks said in a statement. "Yet, it points to a broader issue of violent extremism that is far too common in today's political discourse."
    Copeland was arrested Wednesday and made an initial court appearance Thursday. He's scheduled to appear in court again on July 20 for a detention hearing. Rogers is scheduled to appear in court July 30 for a status conference.
    If convicted on all charges, each defendant faces a maximum of 20 years in prison, officials said

    I know the reason why democrats don't support Cubans who fight for their freedom. You see, Cuban's detest socialism because they've had to live under it for the entire life and dems want socialism for the USA.




    GOP Rep. Salazar: Castro Made ‘Same False Promise’ Left Makes Today, ‘Socialism Is Socialism’



    During Saturday’s Republican Weekly Address, Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) said that Fidel Castro gave the Cuban people “the same false promise being brought to you today by liberal politicians, Hollywood, academia, and the legacy media.” And “Socialism is socialism” regardless of what word you put in front of it.


    Transcript as Follows:


    “Today the Cuban People are crying out. They rally in the streets of Cuba, chanting, ‘LIBERTAD.’ Liberty. Yet for 62 years, Misery has become the Cuban birthright. The Communist Regime has ruled with violence, lies, and oppression.


    But no more.


    The Cuban people have nothing left. No rights and no freedom, but even more importantly: no fear. The world is watching as tens of thousands of Cubans take to the streets, but the regime is fighting back. The regime is a satanic nightmare.


    Internet blackouts, silence of the press, beating those on the streets. That is Cuba’s reality at this very moment. As the island goes dark, the Cuban people fight in the streets.


    The Biden administration must act now to turn the lights back on so we can all see what’s happening.


    The United States invented the Internet – and we know how to amplify it. They need the VPNs to boost internet access to all Cubans. They need the ability to share their videos in order to expose the regime’s atrocities. They need a secure channel to upload them – just as Secretary Pompeo did when Iran cut Internet three years ago, for killing their own people.


    Cuba is 90 miles from Miami, the distance between freedom and oppression. Worlds away but only hours apart.


    When Fidel Castro took power in 1959, he promised the riches of the world, and called it democratic socialism. This is the same false promise being brought to you today by liberal politicians, Hollywood, academia, and the legacy media.


    Socialism is socialism, no matter what word you put on the front of it. It is a sickness that crushes the soul. Cuba is the best example of this.


    Our founding fathers rejected it and entrenched individual rights in our Constitution for all to enjoy. The Cuban people want the same things that we have in America. The US is the bastion of liberty.


    We must not fail them again — just remember the Bay of Pigs — and we must support this spontaneous movement unconditionally – NOW!


    Long live freedom and the United States. Cuba Libre.”
