I hope there isn’t a giant crackdown on them. Freedom is an oddity in this century. Even in America.

Have Sean Penn and Danny Glover been down there to tell them they know not of what they speak?

Biden will probably send in US Forces to support the Cuban government.

Cuba should have learned. The last American President who they might have thought could have helped was too busy boinking every woman in D.C. At least he didn’t kill one while drunk driving like his sleazy brother did.

Or the fall of Colonel Phodopholis (spelling?) or Nikki Czauczesku (spelling?). Caribbean Spring? There, now, we’ve upset Sanders, AOC, AND Joe;D

This has come from a people who had the much celebrated free government health care system. Has it collapsed like Champlain Towers?

I guessed right:

Havana, Jul 7, 2021.- While a large portion of the world is recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic, Cuba is suffering its worst outbreak with new infection records being set almost daily and the healthcare system on the verge of collapse in the province of Matanzas, where patients are piling up in the halls of hospitals and there is a scarcity of medications to treat them . . . Finding a simple painkiller or antibiotic is an ordeal in this Caribbean country, where pharmacies and hospitals are almost out of a wide variety of drugs amid a significant health crisis that prevailed even before the pandemic hit, the US embargo and the questionable efficiency of the ongoing measures.

It appears that Castro’s replacement is a weakling, and the people are sensing it.

Interesting...since “Matanzas” means “Slaughter”.
