Marco Rubio Not Cuba's Favorite Son
This should not come as a surprise. Rubio is a reactionary fanatic who demagogues incessantly about the evils of the Cuban government. He supports illegal and immoral policies that cause vast damage to the Cuban economy and needless suffering by the Cuban people.
But Rubio cannot accept that Cubans’ nearly unanimous rejection of his right-wing politics might mean he is badly mistaken in his Manichean view of the Cuban socioeconomic system. Rubio wears Cubans’ disapproval of him as a badge of honor. For Rubio, Cubans are incapable of independent judgement. If the Cuban people are against him, it means they must be brainwashed
by the evil Castro regime.

BernieSanders White Knights
A local activist brought to our attention this commentary by the website "Fight Back News" on her Facebook page (Which no longer exist) on why they will not support Bernie Sanders. here
"we cannot support the candidacy of Mr. Sanders. As senator, Sanders supported the 2010 Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill that included more militarization of the border, more temporary workers, cutting legal immigration from Africa in half by the elimination of the so-called diversity visa, and cutting back on family reunification visas. Sanders has said almost nothing about the ongoing police occupation of oppressed nationality communities, and the plague of police killings that target young Black and brown men."
We expressed our opinion on her comment section but the post disappeared, apparently dissent is not tolerated.
We think one of their own said it best:
"It's an organizing opportunity, not a horse race or a checkoff list of 'correct' positions. Avoiding the electoral area, failing to build organizations with a capacity to win elections at the grassroots, and counter-posing it with a kind of 'street heat syndicalism.' isn't going to get us where we need to go."

Sandra Bland Deserves Justice
Last Friday, 28 year-old Sandra Bland was driving to her new job in Waller County, TX when she was pulled over for switching lanes without a signal--a routine violation that usually ends with a ticket. But instead, officers slammed her head into the ground and arrested her. Three days later, she died in police custody. here

Rick Scott Is Cool With Trump's Racism
HE WAS NOT OFFENDED
He was asked what he thought of Trump's comments on whether Mexican
immigrants were, for the most part, "killers" and "rapists". You would think
Rick Scott could handle an easy condemnation of Trump's remarks considering he is governor of a state with
a very large Hispanic
population. here

Mexican-American Comedian George Lopez, performed this past Saturday night in Phoenix, Arizona, leading “the audience at the Phoenix Celebrity Theatre in a profanity-laced chat against” Donald Trump. here
Here is what Mr. Manjarres had to say:
"Just because Lopez is Latino, he does not represent every Latino from countries like Brazil, Colombian, Venezuela, or even Mexico. (You forgot Cuba) Hey George, not every Latino is Mexican, and many of these Latinos support what Donald Trump said."

Rick Scott's War On Wildlife
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) director Nick Wiley
created the new panther management plan almost exclusively with a rancher who
was appointed by Rick Scott to the FWC commission. The state of Florida spends
nearly $1 million per year studying the panther, yet the scientists and
biologists involved in those studies weren’t even consulted until after
the controversial plan was drafted. here

Kid Rock Can Kiss My Tampa Ass
A few weeks ago when a friend from Michigan and I went to buy our tickets for the Def Leppard concert he picked up a couple for the Kid's show at the Trop. tonight. He is a big fan of Kid Rock as I am of the opening act "Foreigner." After hearing what he said about protestors of the Confederate flag. I decided I am going to sit this one out, Sorry Foreigner. He found another friend to use the ticket, I hope they have fun among the bubbas.

The Florida Democratic Party Sucks
In Florida, the Republicans control Both Houses, the Governorship, and the majority of state appointments. Statistically, this does not make sense, because there are more Democrats registered on the voting polls, which gives the party the advantage in every election. But somehow the Republicans continue to win, and it would appear that the wrong Democratic leadership is in positions of power. here
Under the leadership of the Florida Democratic Chairperson Allison Tant, the Democrats have lost the Governorship twice. For almost two decades the Florida Democrats have delivered constant electoral defeats, and the same group is now making recommendations based on what they keep doing wrong. Fire Tant and hire Susan Smith!
