DeSantis Awards Florida’s Medal of Freedom to Che Guevara Captor Felix Rodriguez
Front Page Magazine ^ | 10/06/2021 | Humberto Fontova

“Felix’s life has been dedicated to fighting communism, to supporting freedom, to supporting liberty, and we appreciate Felix as a brave and courageous freedom fighter,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “From his service as a paramilitary officer with the Central Intelligence Agency during the Bay of Pigs Invasion to a Colonel in the United States Army at the height of the Vietnam War, Felix has marked his legacy as one of the bravest fighters for freedom in history. I am honored to award Felix the Governor’s Medal of Freedom and may God bless him and the Great State of Florida.”

“Rodríguez said he is concerned about a socialist regime taking control of the United States. That’s beginning to happen, he warned. And he encouraged people to vote in the 2022 election, because losing the House and Senate could lead to what he called the United States of Socialism: “Go out and make sure that we’ll regain those two houses, because that’s the only way that we’re going to save the United States of America,”

Needless to add, no mention from the Democrat-Media Complex about an award for a man who helped take out one of America’s most virulent enemies—an enemy whose fantasies would have left Osama Bin Laden’s, Tojo’s, and Hitler’s in the dust. To wit:

“The U.S. is the great enemy of mankind!” (Che Guevara, 1961.)

“Against those hyenas there is no option but extermination!” (Che Guevara, 1961.)

“We must keep our hatred [against the U.S.] alive and fan it to paroxysm!” (Che Guevara, 1965.)

“If the nuclear missiles had remained [in Cuba] we would have fired them against the heart of the U.S. including New York City. The victory of socialism is well worth millions of Atomic victims.” (Che Guevara, 1962.)

Without Humberto Fontova, we would have a hard time finding honest stories about the Cuban Freedom fighters. Anything at at all.
Plus he is one of the few willing to write the truth about the Left’s hero, Che Guevara.
Thank you Mr Fontova.

DeSantis keeps knocking it out of the park.

He’s like Trump with better verbal skills.

I’d take either one of them in either POTUS or VP slots. We need more like them.

The other Medal Of Freedom should be awarded to Mario Terán Salazar.

It’s good politics by DeSantis, but also very appropriate.

Trump US Medal of Freedom winners were mainly athletes + Elvis, trivializing the award, and he snubbed Thomas Sowell.

I will vote for Trump if he is the 2024 nominee, but I’d rather have DeSantis.

Didn't beat you to the post; and couldn't have said it better.

Same here. Ron DeSantis is in many ways the man Donald Trump wanted to be. I really hope DeSantis throws his hat into the ring for '24. And I really hope Donald Trump sits this one out and instead wisely chooses to put his efforts into endorsing the strongest MAGA candidate running.

Of course, if Trump gets the nod I will vote for him enthusiastically but I am not supporting him in the primaries unless it's Donald Trump vs. four GOP establishment RINOs. I hope this isn't the case. MAGA needs younger blood, --hungry, focused, and disciplined.
