Thomas Massie chose to end his career with this despicable line about Congressman-elect Ed Gallrein: “I had to find him in Tel Aviv.” Rather than exit with dignity, Massie just proved President Trump was right to send him into early retirement.

@ChiBearsMuse Nah. Lou’s is alright, but it’s a matter of taste. And as much as I love and prefer Giordanos, they suffer from the same homogeneity that any of the chains do

I'm being left behind by the AI revolution in the same way I was left behind when Heaven's Gate ascended to join the spaceship that was hiding behind a comet.

It's truly amazing how ideologically polarized the #Cuban "story" has become. On one side are those who cling to the idea that pre-1959 Cuba was a paradise with democracy, prosperity, & gold in the streets for everyone! And on the other side, Fidel was a revolutionary hero who did away with racism & economic deprivation and liberated Cubans from the grasp of the evil imperialists.... Maybe, hear me out, both images are WRONG. The history of #Cuba's relationship with the US is complex and needs to be viewed empirically & objectively. So too the legacy of Fidel & the revolution. As a Cuban-American, born on the island and raised in the United States, I reject the cartoonish characterizations of both pre- and post-1959 Cuba. As a US citizen, I am critical of my government and wish our foreign policy to be driven by rational/strategic considerations & respect for other people. As an ethnic Cuban, I wish my compatriots on the island had more opportunities & freedoms. I want regime change in #Cuba, but driven by Cubans on the island—not Miami! As a Cuban-American, I wish the two countries would engage with each other through mutual respect! Thank you for coming to my TED Talk!

🚨 NOW: Sec. Marco Rubio just broke out into full SPANISH MODE, ripping the Communist Cuban regime and sending a message DIRECTLY to the people DOWN WITH COMMUNISM 🇺🇸🇨🇺 "The reason you are FORCED to survive without electricity is NOT an oil blockade by America...no electricity, fuel or food is because the people who control it have PLUNDERED billions of dollars, but NOTHING has been used to help the people!" "30 years ago, Raúl Castro founded a company called GAESA. This company is owned by the Armed Forces and operated by them, and has income three times higher than the current budget of his government!" "Today, while you are suffering, these entrepreneurs have $18 billion in assets and control 70% of Cuba's economy." "They obtain profits from hotels, constructions, banks, stores, and even the money that their relatives send them from the United States." "Everything, everything goes through their hands. From those remittances, they retain a percentage, but nothing comes to you from the profits of GAESA." "Instead of using the money to buy oil, like all other countries in the world, they depended on Hugo Chavez and Maduro's free oil to keep the money. But now that they no longer receive free oil, they buy fuel for their generators and their vehicles, while the people are asked to sacrifice themselves." "If owning your own business and having the right to vote is possible around Cuba, why is it not possible for you inside Cuba? In the United States, we are ready to open a new chapter in the relationship between our people and our countries!" "And right now, the only thing that gets in the way of a better future is those who control their country."

1/7 On May 20, 1902, the US flag was lowered in Havana and the Cuban flag raised, marking the end of direct US military occupation and centuries of Spanish colonial rule. However, this birth of the Republic of Cuba came with severe limitations on our national sovereignty. #Cuba

Feels bleak that people have grown so sick of having to read and learn, two of life’s greatest and most rewarding pleasures, that they built machines to spare them from ever having to know anything again. I feel as though I’m living in a prequel to Fahrenheit 451.

@EricLDaugh You’re not even a good propagandist. You just breathlessly repeat what the regime puts out there, as if it’s the most amazing thing you’ve ever read

🚨 JUST IN: The Trump DOJ is now planning to unseal an indictment against RAUL CASTRO — brother of Fidel Castro President Trump says Cuba is flailing, as reports say Cuba considered ATTACKING FLORIDA and Guantanamo bay DOWN WITH COMMUNISM! 🇺🇸🇨🇺 47: "Cuba is calling us, they need help! Cuba is a FAILED NATION. Cuba needs help, and we'll do that." FOX: "New intelligence reveals that Cuba's regime is reportedly stockpiling attack drones from its allies, Russia and Iran with Cuban officials, even planning potential attacks on U.S. military targets here in Guantanamo Bay and Key West just 90 miles north of Havana." "Cuban leadership is so far hedging on this U.S. offer of $100 million in humanitarian assistance"

🚨 @WHO recognized Cuba for eliminating the transmission of HIV and syphilis from mother to child, a feat it has maintained since 2015 thanks to its universal health system and primary care, despite the hardships imposed by the US blockade and oil siege.

I, too, would like to sue the IRS so that they can never examine my taxes or the taxes of my children or my businesses. after all, it’s equal justice for everyone.
