And on top of it all, they have given up on trying to stop people from leaving. I’d say that the last person out should turn off the lights, but it looks like the lights are already off.

Biden and Harris gave direct flights to Cubans to come here as illegal immigrants.

I spoke at length with two Cuban immigrants that arrived here in December, with nothing. They told me they were legal as Biden gave them a phone app and direct flight across the Border. Biden even gave them working papers.

It was a couple who had abandoned their children in Cuba to come here, hoping to bring their children later.

It’s sad what Biden/Harris have done.

“Cuba’s population had suddenly dropped by close to 20% over just the past two to three years. Moreover, the 20% who had departed were not randomly distributed,”

WTF? What shot did they get there?

Ohio and Pennsylvania still have some small towns left.

I always believe a lot of PRs problems got worse when they ran out the US Navy.

I was there 6 months before the Navy pulled out and while only there a week I could see how much money the military was infusing into the economy......there’s no telling how many tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars PR lost because they wanted the Navy out.

Well, they got Vieques back....hope they’re happy.

Capitalist countries build fences to keep people out.

Communist countries build fences to keep people in.................

Cuba - the darling of the American Left is not making news in the major media; because their ass is exposed.

Air Canada is offering a tour package to Havana.

Obviously, Cuba can get foreign exchange.

The power stations were probably built with Russian equipment and the Russians would certainly be willing to sell replacement parts.

The power stations probably could run on wood alcohol.

We need to pray for the poor Cuban people. Destitute, no food, water, power. They are suffering greatly.

Most hate communism, but as 20% of the population work for the government, and are spies, overturning it is almost impossible.

There are communities of Christians across the country who are really suffering - I have friends who go to minister there about once a year. It is so sad.

So please pray. I’m praying for a complete collapse of the communist government and a rising up of those wanting freedom. And for supplies to meet their needs.

I’m starting to think that maybe communism doesn’t work ...Why how dare you, you counterrevolutionary! The power supply has been increased from 24 hours per day to 4 hours per day. Soon it will be increased to 0 hours per day. Viva La Revolucion! Glory to Fidel!
