@michael_esq1 Says the guy that probably doesn't know the sacrifice of military service. Guys like me served so you can enjoy your "Esq." title.

@mattvanswol JFC. Honestly, can the US just ditch Puerto Rico? We don’t need to keep paying for them.

🚨HOLY CRAP!!! The San Juan airport in Puerto Rico now has DOZENS of OUTDOOR TENTS set up, just so hundreds of passengers have somewhere to stand while waiting for TSA. Reports are that people are standing in line at TSA for 5-6 HOURS in Puerto Rico. PURE MADNESS!!!!!

Purposefully turning off the halftime show Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them) You are their benefit. Realize you have power. Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that.

@IvelisseArroyo Outstanding post! The sad part, it will continue to happen. I hope their "Lessons learned" meetings take your thoughts into consideration, for their own sake.

Another American GTM failed trial for Hispanics in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. All Arby’s’ restaurants are closing islandwide. I share my two cents: My home island 🏝️ has long been treated as a Go-to-Market playground, a convenient “testing ground” for U.S. brands before they scale into LATAM. Yet every failure shares the same root: they test the market, but they don’t learn from it. Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 is a consumer economy. Around 80% of what we consume is imported. American franchises often see this as an open invitation to experiment, assuming that our buying habits are identical to the rest of the U.S. or Latin America. The mistake? Ignorance toward cultural nuance. Many American brands lump all Latinos together, and that’s where they lose us. Yes, we share some roots; language, family, similarities in food, rhythm, but we’re not monolithic. 🤦🏻‍♀️ In CPG and franchising especially, Puerto Ricans reject brands that don’t understand our flavor of culture. Take Arby’s, for instance. Their failure to localize, to bring in local sandwich favorites or adapt the menu, wasn’t just a marketing miss; it was a cultural blind spot. Here, sandwiches made with our native bread 🥖 are not fast food, they’re comfort, identity, nostalgia. To ignore that is to misunderstand what people actually crave. The market here has shifted demographically in the past decade. Puerto Rico remains welcoming, but we embrace brands that embrace us. Those who succeed, from Chinese restaurants to Dominican restaurants to Venezuelan areperas, integrate Puerto Rican culture into their offerings while sharing their own. It’s cultural reciprocity, not cultural imposition. 💥 That’s the lesson American GTM strategists keep missing: you don’t win a market by teaching it who you are. You win it by showing that you understand who they are. Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 isn’t your practice field, it’s a living, breathing market with its own identity. If you come to sell, come to listen first. Those who honor our culture earn our loyalty. Those who don’t, leave as another failed GTM case study. 🥴

My wife Connie & I were married for 30 years. Two days ago she passed away. A remarkable woman who was a fantastic stage performer & recording artist for 35 years, co-founder of The Caring Place in Las Vegas that helps Cancer patients (like her), & a great mother & wife.

@MAC_Arms @krassenstein If someone tries to come to my house with masks with a "warrant", I would ask them to slip the "warrant" under the door. I would then verify the legitimacy said warrant. This stunt puts ICE agents in danger in the future, because, a person with doubts will protect their castle.

@krassenstein I had to screenshot this one, clearly Brian was drunk posting again. 1) it's more than "a man" its a group of men. 2) they show a fake warrant so it's not "warrantless". 3) this has absolutely nothing to do with ICE raids.

A Man posing as masked FBI agents in Jurupa Valley, CA entered a home claiming to have a search warrant on the homeowner. The men zip-tied the family and robbed them. This is why warrantless ICE INVASIONS of homes are so dangerous, especially with masked agents.

@MattWalshBlog The U.S. was founded by European colonists, but this doesn't make Europeans indigenous in the anthropological or historical sense, as they arrived long after Native Americans had established complex societies.

The government is shutdown, but the House refuses to go back in session. Why are we in recess? Because the day we go back into session, I have 218 votes for the discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files. @SpeakerJohnson doesn’t want that to be the news.

@RepMTG HR 1862 bill applies to official government business. However, imposing that on private enterprise is a stretch. Are you saying you want government interference on a private business matter? That would be an overreach as per the HR 1862 bill. The NFL is a private entity.

Bad Bunny says America has 4 months to learn Spanish before his perverse unwanted performance at the Super Bowl halftime. It would be a good time to pass my bill to make English the official language of America. And the NFL needs to stop having demonic sexual performances during its halftime shows.

@lyndaPT72 Glad you are already trying to learn Spanish. By the way it's "Aprende" not "Apprende." You have 4 months. Keep the Spanish lessons going, buen trabajo Lynda. 👍🏽
