People could also just listen to her original records.

There’s an eternal education there.

GAESA reportedly sold off its container terminal at Mariel to another state company.

If true, interesting response to get free and clear of sanctions.

But claim in article this is start of a wider dismantling of GAESA seems a stretch at this stage.

⚠️⚠️Muere otro alto jerarca de las fuerzas armadas del régimen.

El régimen anunció el fallecimiento del General de Brigada de la Reserva Antonio Rafael Concepción Quintero.

Lo que veremos a partir de ahora es una sangría de altos cargos, casi todos con más de 90 años.

El nieto pródigo speaks about investment potential to a UAE-based outlet owned by a Sheikh.

Quite the roll out.

Not sure ideólogos in Havana will love that the title calls him part of a "revolutionary dynasty."

As we await results of the pleno del PCC, ojo con esta noticia.

Creo que por aquí puede ir la cosa, de una manera que no va a complacer ni a un sector del pensamiento oficialista tradicional ni a la oposición.

"Soft takeover," se le llama.

Rubio: “The president’s preference is always a negotiated agreement that’s peaceful…that remains our preference with #Cuba . I’m just being honest with you. You know, the likelihood of that happening, given who we’re dealing with right now, is not high.”

The US has moved the USS Nimitz (flat top carrier) and three ship task force to the Caribbean Sea close to Cuba. Today SouthCom General Francis Donovan met with Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in DC.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Adys Lastres Morera is the sister of the Executive President of GAESA, the Cuban military-controlled financial conglomerate that steals millions in aid for the Cuban people at the behest of the regime.

Morera was managing real estate assets and living in Florida, while also aiding Havana's communist regime, until I terminated her permanent resident status.

I am pleased to announce that today, she was arrested and is now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

There will be nowhere on this Earth - much less in our country - where foreign nationals who threaten our national security can live lavishly.
