China reportedly reached an agreement with Cuba to allow them to create an electronic eavesdropping facility on the Caribbean island, which is located about 100 miles south of Florida, as tensions between Beijing and Washington have been rising dramatically over the past several months.

The Cuban facility would allow Chinese intelligence officials to monitor U.S. ship traffic and to listen to electronic communications throughout the southeastern United States, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of highly classified intelligence, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.

China reached an agreement in principle to pay several billion dollars to the impoverished Marxist-Leninist nation of Cuba, officials familiar with the matter also said.

Thinking of what to say about Biden’s weakness Lloyd Bentsen comes to mind.

[No name given]

Two communist countries cooperating with each other. So far I’m not so surprised.

[Boogieman]

“secret base”

Not anymore, apparently.

[NohSpinZone]

OK here we go again some 61 years later after the Cuban Missile Crisis.

[Seruzawa]

Not much of a secret.

[03A3]

Uke lovers........tell me we no right to eliminate this threat.

[frank ballenger]

Maybe Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. can negotiate and end the crisis.

Let’s re-visit the Zeeper Russia/Ukraine-in-NATO arguments for this case:

- its only a defensive alliance, why is USA so butt-hurt?
- there won’t be any offensive missiles on USA’s borders
- its not a formal alliance directed at the USA
- its an independent 3rd country, they can do what they want

Shocked...shocked I tell you.

[Liberty Valance]

How lucky are we to have Biden at the helm at this time?

[MeganC]

1. It’s not a secret.

2. Cuba is a sovereign country and they do not answer to the US anymore than NATO answers to Russia.

[discostu]

They gonna move into Russia’s old base?

[proust]

Why is it even needed? They have spy balloons, fang fang, Feinstien’s driver, Huawei and ZTE, TikTok, WeChat, etc.

[Chgogal]

Bumbling Biden sure is working hard for China. What has he not done in China’s favor? He is surely going to put up a great stink about this.

[ConservativeInPA]

Or Ukraine and piss poor civil engineers 😂

[The Iceman Cometh]

Does it really take a secret base to determine we are run by idiots? We’ll end ourselves long before China would have to lift a finger.

[high info voter]

But we’ll keep that covered up thanks to the BILLION and a half dollars China used to buy the felony Biden family! /sarc

[pops88]

We getting news from the 1950’s-60’s now being made public? LOL.

[NohSpinZone]

Right, and he’ll send Adlai Stevenson IV (grandson) to the UN to shame the Chicoms?

[Responsibility2nd]

A secret base on Cuba.

So much more effective than “weather balloons”.
