President Trump seems determined during his last term in office to ‘fix’ a lot of what’s been broken regarding U.S. domestic and foreign policy. No one has been more valuable to him regarding the latter than his choice for secretary of state, Marco Rubio.
To say he knows what he’s doing is an understatement.
As such, he’s been an invaluable figure regarding Trump’s efforts around the world, but especially in our hemisphere. That includes helping the president implement “The Donroe Doctrine” – a laser-like focus on The Americas, including Cuba, where Rubio’s family hails from.
The secretary of state and former Florida senator made a move this past week that appears to signal Trump’s intent to bring the communist regime ruling Cuba to heel after nearly 70 years in power:
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced last week that federal authorities arrested Adys Lastres Morera, the sister of sanctioned Cuban official Ania Guillermina Lastres, in Florida Rubio said Lastres Morera will remain in the custody of U
Rubio said Lastres Morera will remain in the custody of U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending deportation proceedings after he determined she was removable under U.
S. immigration law.
According to Rubio and ICE officials, Lastres Morera entered the United States as a lawful permanent resident on Jan. 13, 2023, during the administration of Joe Biden.
Rubio, who is of Cuban descent, said he personally revoked her green card after concluding that her presence in the United States posed a threat to American foreign policy interests due to alleged ties to the Cuban regime and its military controlled business conglomerate, GAESA, according to reports “For far too long, the family members of terrorist organizations, repressive anti American regimes, and other bad actors who would threaten the national security of the United States have been given a free pass to enjoy the privileges of living in the United States,” he said in a statement
“For far too long, the family members of terrorist organizations, repressive anti-American regimes, and other bad actors who would threaten the national security of the United States have been given a free pass to enjoy the privileges of living in the United States,” he said in a statement.
“Past Administrations have permitted the families of Cuban military elites, Iranian terrorists, and other reprehensible organizations to enjoy lavish lifestyles in our country funded by stolen blood-money, while the people they repress at home suffer in increasingly dire circumstances,” Rubio continued.
Under President Trump, we are removing from our country the family members of IRGC terrorists and Cuban regime elites,” he went on Under President Trump, we are removing from our country the family members of IRGC terrorists and Cuban regime elites,” he went on.
That, along with the Trump administration cutting off the island’s oil from Venezuela and the indictment last week of Raúl Castro, Fidel’s brother, sure seems to indicate Trump is preparing a move against the island’s regime
After taking Iran off the enemies list, ending Cuba’s decades-long communist nightmare would cement Trump’s place in history as one of our greatest presidents.
