@toddrappfree recognized in @univmiami #30under30 for his legal experience and work in the community. Very well deserved recognition! @MiamiLawAlumni

[Abhi Kambli @AbhiKambli1984]

Thankful to be at a firm where none of this is mutually exclusive and the fun/interesting work is not relegated to limited pro bono hours. And our associates (who are significantly more talented than their big law counterparts) are also among the happiest you’ll find anywhere.

[Attorney General James Uthmeier @AGJamesUthmeier]

Today, we announced the arrests of 116 human traffickers and child predators and the rescue of five victims as part of an operation supporting the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Florida has zero tolerance for this evil, and we will continue to hunt down every last one of them.

90 miles off our coast is a regime that hates us. The Communist regime in Cuba is friendly with Russia, Communist China, Hezbollah, and Iran.

Every American will be safer when this illegitimate regime falls, Raul Castro is brought to justice, and Cuba is free.

[Lindsey Lazopoulos Friedman @LLFEsquire]

I'm not convinced this is the "biggest" national security risk-the existing harboring of Russian, Chinese, and IJ bad actors together with the intelligence gathering and trading is a bigger ongoing risk. This administration in particular is equipped to stop/disallow evacuation

[Face The Nation @FaceTheNation]

Former CIA Director Robert Gates says the biggest national security risk posed by Cuba to the U.S. is "another Mariel evacuation… that has tens of thousands of Cubans heading to the United States out of desperation."

"They have been involved in ways that have impacted our national security and our interests in their engagement in other countries for a long time," he tells @margbrennan, noting how Cuban security forces were in Venezuela protecting then-President Nicolás Maduro.

"But, are they an imminent threat to the United States? Other than in these, if you will, peripheral ways, I think the main threat is, frankly, is collapse," he says.

If the CIA is meeting with you face to face like this, your regime is already changed, you just don’t know it yet. https://t.co/Ak42RCyTEu

[Lindsey Lazopoulos Friedman @LLFEsquire]

Regime change addresses NatSec threat Cuba poses to USA, & as I said in the Tampa Bay Biz Journal, a "free Cuba will stand as a tribute to every family that fled by sea, every prisoner who endured the system’s cruelty & every exile who refused to forget"

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: The wealth in Cuba is controlled by a company owned by military generals who take all the money. This is a country where people are literally eating garbage from the streets, but this company is sitting on $16 billion.

It’s a broken nonfunctional economy.

[Lindsey Lazopoulos Friedman @LLFEsquire]

The tension mounting against the Cuban regime is palpable in South Florida--expecting a lot of announcements and changes next week.

[Rep. Nicole Malliotakis Office @RepNicole]

For decades, the Castro regime has gotten away with the cold-blooded murder of American citizens and other crimes against humanity. It is long past time to hold Raúl Castro accountable for his role in the shooting down of the Brothers to the Rescue plane in 1996. In February, I joined my Cuban-American colleagues to urge action and I’m encouraged that @TheJusticeDept may be on the brink of charging Castro to deliver the justice the victims' families have so far been denied.

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

🇺🇸🇨🇺 The CIA director just visited Cuba, the first time a CIA chief has set foot on the island since the Communist Revolution in the 1950s.

Ratcliffe delivered Trump's message personally: the U.S. will engage on economics and security, but only if Cuba makes "fundamental changes."

The key demand: shut down Russian and Chinese intelligence listening posts used to intercept American communications.

Perhaps will strengthen case for bringing claim un USA and surviving forum non conviens challenge. Definitely will increase litigation over restitution claims in alternative forums.
