Bari, I am surprised you didn’t mention that yesterday Biden’s DHS Secretary said the US would not accept any refuges from Cuba even if they are legitimately fleeing political persecution. How is this not HUGE news?

That's easy. They would all eventually vote Republican.

If we had an honest media, it most certainly would be huge news. However, the DNC state media is clearly trying to duck and spin what's happening in Cuba as anything but protesting the regime. I believe Jen Psaki claimed that Cubans are protesting for vaccines, not freedom (insert massive eye roll). Seriously! Cubans understand totalitarianism and would be highly unlikely to vote for it again down the line in the US (if permitted entry). Better to allow future Democratic voters (nudge, nudge, wink wink) to flood over the southern border (at massive cost to US taxpayers). Cubans legitimately fleeing political persecution don't really bolster the DNC narrative. Think about how insane that is - that's where we're at right now. Also note silence from Bernie, AOC, and that tribe on this issue.
