As millions march against communism across Cuba, Biden administration makes an outrageous response

Defying death, terror and beatings, millions of Cubans took to the streets across Cuba shouting “Freedom” and “We are not afraid” in a collective call to end to the 62-year communist dictatorship.

It was breathtaking, a thing of beauty, comparable only to Tiananmen or the fall of the Berlin wall.

It took unprecedented courage, too — against state goons, secret police, government death squads, and paid thugs — who are responding now like cornered rats, recognizing very well their survival is at stake.

It’s too soon to tell if the Cubans have won, a big general strike has been called today. But even if they didn’t, this was a vast people’s repudiation of communism, that brutal system so praised by the U.S. left.

It was very bad news for the wokester flag-burners and ruling socialists of every stripe over here, many of whom have praised Cuba’s brutal regime and burned the U.S. flag, now that the Cubans are waving it.

But the worst response of all has come from the far-left Biden administration.

Rather than standing up for the people of Cuba, and hailing their call for liberty, praising their waving of the U.S. flag, and warning the Castroite communist regime it gets the hammer if it dares hunt them down, beat them, or drag them off in the dead of night, (which they are doing as I write this) the only thing we have from the Biden administration is obfuscating garbage from one lowly “Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs,” named Julie Chung.

Thanks. I pray for the people of Cuba. But I prayed for the people of Venezuela too. I remember they had Cuban goons to knock off the protesters, so now will Venezuela repay the favor? The commies have Russia, China and Iran on their side too. They will not give up being so close to US. Plus now they’ve got Biden on their side.

Haitian doctor with ties to Florida arrested as alleged leader of Moise assassination

A Haitian doctor with reported ties to Florida has been arrested in connection with the assassination of President Jovenel Moise last week.

Christian Emmanuel Sanon is the third person arrested on Sunday in connection with the killing who reportedly had ties to the United States. Authorities have said he was one of the masterminds behind the plan and that he wanted to assume the presidency, according to the Washington Post.

Before the assassination, he reportedly spent the last two decades living on and off in Florida, per the Miami Herald, and had registered more than a dozen businesses in the state, though most are inactive.

An interagency group of U.S. officials traveled to Haiti on Sunday following the island’s request for a military presence to stabilize the country, National Security Council spokeswoman Emily Horne revealed in a Monday statement. The group was made up officials from the Department of Justice, Homeland Security, State, and National Security Council, and during their visit, the officials met with officials from the Haitian National Police, acting Prime Minister Claude Joseph, Prime Minister-Designate Ariel Henry, and Senate President Joseph Lambert.

James Solages and Joseph Vincent, both of whom are U.S. citizens, were arrested on suspicion of participating in the assassination last Wednesday. The two of them told a Haitian judge participating in the investigation that they served as translators and were not in the room when Moise was killed.

Solages, who said he found the translating job online, told the judge he had been in Haiti for a month, while Vincent said he had been in the country for six months, Judge Clement Noel said.

Australia Announces the New World Order!

The New World Order is here!

And it’s first country is the “Land Down Under.”

On a recent broadcast, Australian mainstream media announced the first full day of the “New World Order.”

And the New South Wales’ MP echoed that statement.

According to Worldometer, Australia just confirmed its 2nd COVID-19 related death of 2021 on July 11th.

In response, Australia’s government has turned the country into a literal prison.

Australian citizens cannot leave the country without an approved exemption from their Department of Home Affairs.

Even with the approved exemption, you must leave for 3 months minimum.

And a severe restriction on the number of inbound flights to Australia still has many Australians stranded abroad.

So, I use the term prison literally in this sense.

Australia is functioning as an open-air prison.

And its prisoners are given tyrannical lockdown procedures to follow.

New Wales Minister for Health and Medical Research Brad Hazzard dismissed lockdown concerns as “just the way it is,” claiming citizens must “accept” this “New World Order” paradigm.

“This is a world pandemic,” Hazzard said Saturday. “It’s a one in 100-year event. So you can expect that we will have transmission from time to time, and that’s just the way it is.”

“We’ve got to accept that this is the New World Order.”

Avocado farmers take up arms as Mexico violence spikes

A convoy of vigilantes snakes along a road in western Mexico, vowing to defend their avocado orchards from gangs sowing terror in a country reeling from a new wave of
Armed with assault rifles and other firearms, the masked men travel between plantations and maintain checkpoints in Ario de Rosales in Michoacan state, the scene of a bloody cartel turf war.

Before they began patrolling the area, residents lived in fear of kidnapping, extortion and theft of avocados, according to a member of the self-defense group Pueblos Unidos, which says it has 700 members.

“We need to be armed to defend ourselves,” he told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity, wearing a badge reading “Down with injustice, no more dead.”

Previously, criminals “came to do what they wanted to us, and that doesn’t happen anymore,” he added.

President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador opposes such self-defense groups — a phenomenon that dates back to 2013 — saying that some of them have become fronts for criminals.

Such comments are not well received in Ario de Rosales, where another Pueblos Unidos member says the president should “get his shoes dirty” to discover the reality of life in the area, where the Jalisco New Generation and Los Viagras cartels operate.

The police and military “feared the criminals or were paid by them to do nothing,” said another vigilante who gave his name as Martin.

- ‘Hugs not bullets’ -

It is estimated that there are around 50 such self-defense groups in Mexico, which has seen intensifying violence in recent months, notably in Michoacan and the northern states of Tamaulipas and Zacatecas.

Mexico registered 14,243 murders in the first five months of the year, and the bloodshed has shown no sign of stopping since then.

Despite the escalation in violence, Lopez Obrador refuses to declare war on the cartels, arguing that this policy failed in the past.

Instead he has maintained a strategy of “hugs not bullets” and fighting crime at its roots by attacking poverty and inequality.
Lopez Obrador has told the United States that he wants to end military cooperation in fighting narcotics trafficking.

“You cannot confront violence with violence,” he said on Friday about the situation in Aguililla, another Michoacan town terrorized by warring gangs.

In April, former US ambassador Christopher Landau said that Lopez Obrador saw the cartels as a “distraction” from a domestic agenda mostly focused on social programs.

Sounds like Biden is running the place.
