Good morning.
It's an honor to be here and support Attorney General Blanch, Senator Moody, and your great United States Attorney, Jason Reading Kinones.
Communist revolution ...In reality, there is no abundance nor freedom. Rather, it obstructs individual personal property rights, suffocates merit, and centralizes total power in the hands of tyrants. We've seen what communism has brought us. Over a hundred million people that have lost their lives, engineered famines, and the total destruction of human liberty.
Just 90 miles from our Florida shorelines, the Castro family has ruled the island with an iron fist. For nearly 50 years, Raul Castro directed the armed forces and served as chief enforcer, the very man who traded the promise of revolution for a prison state.
And under his command and to this day, Cuba remains a dungeon.
Political dissident are ripped from their homes at night under fabricated charges. They're dragged through the streets, beaten, and imprisoned for decades.
I know this pain is all too real for many of you in this room.
The people have long suffered because of that communist regime. And today that hits very close to home here in the Freedom Tower with the brothers to the rescue.
Raul Castro ordered those fighter jets to shoot down unarmed civilian aircraft. It was not an accident. It was intentional, premeditated, state sanctioned murder. And their criminal conspiracy violated Florida's sovereignty. They embedded spies here in Miami and across jurisdictions down into the Florida Keys, revealing the intelligence that would put these civilian aircraft in the crosshairs.
And yet for too long leaders in Washington looked the other way. They sat by idly. They even attended baseball games with the very man that directed the murders. Not anymore. We are blessed to have a president, Donald J. Trump. We are blessed to have a president in Donald J. Trump who will not bend the knee for communist tyrants. And we are blessed to have Attorney General Blanch and your United States Attorney that advance justice and rule of law and who are not going to politically weaponize government. It's an honor to support them in this endeavor. last year, right after I took office, I directed our prosecutors to reopen the investigation into the Castros and these murders. working hand inand with the US attorney and supporting his team, we are today one step closer to advancing justice and the cooperation between the United States and state of Florida could not be more critical than today. Americans deserve justice. Flidians deserve justice. The family members of these men that lost their lives, they deserve justice.
Now, going forward, let me be crystal clear. There can be no future for a free Cuba so long as the Castros and their criminal gang of thugs remain in power. We now have the leaders that will pursue that which is right and just. That I know.
So get ready.
There's more to come.
God bless America and God bless the free state of Florida.
