Cuba Summons Biden Envoy to Complain About ‘Flagrant’ Human Rights Abuses in U.S.
Breitbart ^ | 6 Apr, 2021 | FRANCES MARTEL

The Ministry of Foreign Relations (Minrex) of Cuba confirmed Monday that it had summoned the top American diplomat in the country, Embassy Chargé d’Affairs Timothy Zúñiga-Brown, to protest “flagrant and systematic violations of human rights in the United States.”

The accusation followed the publication of the U.S. State Department’s 2020 report on international human rights, which detailed the situation in every country on earth. Cuba’s profile in the 2020 report was typically unflattering given the consistent use of state violence to silence dissidents, the lack of free speech and assembly provisions, and widespread abuses of power by state security.

The Communist Party of Cuba’s protest followed repeated, public declarations of alleged human rights problems in the United States by the world’s most repressive regimes, primarily the Communist Party of China, which is currently overseeing the genocide of its Uyghur Muslim population in the nation’s west. At a meeting with President Joe Biden’s top diplomat, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, in Alaska last month, senior Communist Party official Yang Jiechi claimed the United States “is not qualified to speak to China from a position of strength” because of its own alleged wrongdoings.

Minrex made clear that it had lobbied the same protest against Washington in a diatribe delivered to Zúñiga-Brown.

Cuba’s director-general for American affairs, Carlos Fernández de Cossío, told the American diplomat that “flagrant and systematic violations of human rights in the United States and on the part of the government of that country are well-known and documented,” according to a Ministry press release. “This refers to racism, xenophobia, police brutality, torture of prisoners, extended imprisonment, the use of secret prisons, antisemitism, McCarthyism, and other forms of religious and ideological intolerance,”

That’s what I thought, especially when I skimmed ahead and saw, “...given the consistent use of state violence to silence dissidents, the lack of free speech and assembly provisions, and widespread abuses of power by state security. “... I thought they were talking about the HARRIS / (Biden) administration.

HOW DO AMERICANS KNOW BIDEN'S P/C STUPIDITY HAS RESULTED IN THE LOSS OF OUR COUNTRY?

<><>Cuba Summons Biden Envoy to Complain About ‘Flagrant’ Human Rights Abuses in U.S
<><> Communist Cuba’s complaints follow those of Communist China.

In Alaska, China's senior CCP official Yang Jiechi, b****-slapped the US and lacerated Biden’s top diplomat,
the spineless Secy of State Antony Blinken, saying "the US is not qualified to speak to China from a position of
strength because of its own alleged wrongdoings."

Biden is relegated to ruling with force and fear, not w/ the required consent of the governed....thanks to his worship of "P/C wokeism."

Every move Biden makes is (A) to make every Biden family member filthy rich and (b) to assure China he is still in abject obeisance to them.

He's so dumb, Biden hasnt yet figured out, WE THE PEOPLE, KNOW he and the Democraps have lost control of our country.

That means more razor wire around the Capital to protect the scalawags from we, the people.

We can’t really lecture to communists when we can’t even run an honest election.

How else are we going to create an authoritarian government if we don’t elevate our leaders to godlike status.
While stripping the deplorable masses of any semblance of freedom or rights.

Several truths — I think:

1) Joe B. is a virtual wholly-owned subsidiary of CCP Corp. (As is his group of handlers and hired brains.)

2) Iran will shortly have The Bomb. Iran is an evil country.
(The U.S. will pontificate, but do nothing.)

3) China will shortly take Taiwan and other small contested territories.
(The U.S. will pontificate, but do nothing.)

4) Russia is poised for some action soon regarding Ukraine.
(The U.S. will pontificate, but do nothing.)

5) D.C. is completely corrupt — completely — and is not structurally able to repair itself, and doesn’t want to anyway. Too profitable as it is.

6) “We” currently believe too many mutually exclusive imperatives to fend off a total collapse financially and sociologically. “Altitude will be insufficient for recovery.”

7) My grandchildren will have to awaken and re-win their Liberty — if that is even possible when their time arrives. They are currently steeped in contradictory but comfortable pure and preachy delusions, Their Liberty will be gone by the time they come of age. (Perhaps this is always necessary, periodically.)

8) The 2022 elections will overwhelmingly confirm and vastly extend and strengthen left-wing control of everything.
(Many of We The People will pontificate, but do nothing.)

It’s all one big Snug Puzzle.
