AOC, Omar silent after Black Lives Matter voices support for Cuban regime
Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Cori Bush of Missouri have yet to weigh in on Black Lives Matter declaring its support for Cuba's communist regime, even though the congresswomen have been vocal BLM supporters in the past.
Black Lives Matter sparked a backlash late Wednesday after posting a statement that blasted the U.S. embargo and praised Cuba's government.
"The people of Cuba are being punished by the U.S. government because the country has maintained its commitment to sovereignty and self-determination," the statement said. "United States leaders have tried to crush this Revolution for decades."
The statement also credited Cuba's government for "protecting Black revolutionaries like Assata Shakur," a convicted cop-killer who fled to Cuba after escaping from prison in 1979. BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors has repeatedly praised Shakur in the past.
Ocasio-Cortez and Omar are vocal supporters of BLM, while Bush was a BLM activist before joining Congress.

Based on Hellenbrand's usual comments, it is probably a 10 year old kid who is using his father's identity. You will notice that he hasn't been verified.

And like usual, you sound like a 10 year old. Does your father know you are using his computer?

What exactly are they supposed to say again?
Seriously, is this the absolute level of conservative rhetoric these days?

You consistently spout lies about Trump and conservatives and you're calling me gullible?

Just about everything I've said is demonstrably true and I don't have to invoke conspiracy or anecdote or 'alternative facts'. Not a luxury that the red hats have.

"people just don't take conservative hysteria seriously, nor should they"
"It literally did happen in the USA, and the conservatives were all for it."
"republicans are ever-eager for whatever excuse to butcher more brown people."
"Maria and Puerto Rico underlined the incomitance of the Trump admin. He pulled the same bullshit with relief to any other region that didn't vote for him, explicitly because he understood that the people would suffer for it."
"US conservatives and Israel are literally the only people in the world who endorse this, and we know why. It certainly isn't because you suddenly care about the plight of brown people overseas."
"I see you guys are struggling with the initial obstacle of not being able to parse what Trump claimed vs what actually happened."
Actually, I think it would be easier and quicker to list what wasn't wrong.
