Anti-Communist Protests Erupt in Cuba
From the story: Cubans in over 32 cities protested in retaliation to the communist regime chanting “Freedom! “Down with Communism!” and “Patria y Vida” (Homeland and Life) in a live Facebook video. The demonstrators demanded access to food, medicine, vaccines and the end to communism amid a massive COVID-19 outbreak (Daily Caller). https://dailycaller.com/2021/07/11/cuba-protests-san-antonio-de-los-banosmiguel-ciaz-canel/ From CNN International Corresponded and Havana Bureau Chief Patrick Oppmann: I have lived in Cuba for nine years and the scenes we saw today were stunning. The protests spread more quickly than anyone could have imagined. I don’t know what tomorrow will bring but the level of discontent and anger isn’t going anywhere (Twitter). From Wall Street Journal Latin America Correspondent Jose de Cordoba: Cubans always talk about the “doble cara” – hiding your true feelings and thoughts because of the fear that comes with living in a police state. This is what happens when a people take off their masks (Twitter). White House press secretary Jen Psaki said it’s not about freedom (RedState). As of late last night, Socialist Bernie Sanders, who heaped high praise on the government of Cuba, was silent (Fox News). From Katie Pavlich last night: Nothing from the @WhiteHouse, @JoeBiden or @SecBlinken on Cuba. Telling (Twitter). From Erielle Davidson: Biden WH predictably out to lunch as Cuba erupts in protest against its socialist government while waving the American flag (Twitter). From Marco Rubio: Frustration with the dictatorships incompetence,greed & repression is mounting rapidly (Twitter). From Dan McLaughlin: … one hopes that the Cuban regime can & will fall to the Cuban people, if not now, soon. And we should do whatever we can to help that along. Cuba Libre (Twitter).

.....and the Biden Administration could care less about the Cuban people, the Afghanistan people and as a matter of fact, the American people unless you are a Liberal Democrat, Socialist or Marxist. How despicable!

LTC Stephen F. What a brave and stellar intellectual girl at 14 years of age to have made such a huge life changing decision and end up with a dream come true life together, as faith would have it, with you. HOWEVER, her heart must be breaking for her beloved people, here and in Cuba, many of whom may be relatives and with a Government Administration which is the worst our Country has ever endured. May our Lord bless her and all of the Cuban people.

Very interesting. And no response from the current administration...not surprised. No comments from our resident Communist, Bernie Sanders...not surprised. Lessons for us to remember...indeed.

Get real, we can't respond to every protest that takes place all over the world. That would take an office full of protest responders, and a huge government agency that I thought people of your feelings are solidly against.
