Rubio's Family Roots Traced To Bella Italia!



From the National Italian American Foundation:

During a diplomatic visit to Rome today, Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani presented Secretary Rubio with a genealogical document tracing his family’s origins to Casale Monferrato, in the Piedmont region of northern Italy. The research was conducted through municipal and church archives by the Region of Piedmont and the city of Casale Monferrato.

Rubio called it “an incredible experience and one more reason to return soon, visit the region, and connect with the past.”

What The Hell Is Happening In Cuba?

- July 11, 2023 - 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States

On the anniversary of the July 11 protests in Cuba, Joe Biden has betrayed the Cuban people and surrendered Cuba to Communist China. By allowing China to sink their teeth into the island and establish military bases 90 miles off our shore, something unthinkable, Biden not only risks our own national security, but he abandons the dream of freedom for those many amazing Cuban Americans who under my administration, were going to get their wish.

 

Today, we also ask God to strengthen and watch over all the political prisoners and protestors being cruelly held captive by this evil regime. Three years ago, the Cuban nightmare was ready to end. The Biden administration has given it up - but I will get it back again. We pray for the day when all of Cuba will be free.

Happening Everywhere But Media Not Covering



This was yesterday in Philly in front of the Art Museum -- home of the famous "Rocky" steps.
These demonstrations are happening everywhere -- all over the country.
But the Biden Administration doesn't want you to know about it. And the media aren't covering these events.
Who ever thought we'd see a day like this in our great nation? Wake up, America!

Here's Who Stands With The Cuban People . . .

July 15, 2021 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

The proud people of Cuba are desperate to be free from the iron boot heel of the Island’s wicked Communist Regime.  These incredible warriors for freedom risk everything to take to the streets in their quest for freedom.  I stand in total solidarity with the freedom fighters in Cuba and the brave Cuban Americans who have watched their families suffer in the motherland at the hands of this heartless and brutal regime.   

 

The Biden Administration’s refusal to forcefully condemn Communism and the Cuban Communist Regime is a national travesty.  The Biden Administration's ludicrous suggestion that the Cubans are protesting government mismanagement—not brutal Communist oppression—is an insult to every Cuban patriot who has suffered, been imprisoned, or died in pursuit of freedom.

 

Today’s Democrat Party is so far left they can’t even take a stand against violent Communism.  Many are Communists themselves!

 

As President, I advanced a strategic vision in which the people of Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua would be free, and that the Western Hemisphere would be the first fully free hemisphere in all of human history.  The Biden Administration is squandering a historic opportunity to stand for freedom and human rights in our home region.  The Biden Administration is betraying the freedom-loving people of Cuba.  I fought for Cuba, they didn’t.

Well, He Has Always Praised And Defended Cuba!


 

Perez, Other Cuban Prelates Speak Out!

“In dramatic and courageous images that have been seen throughout the world, the people of Cuba went to the streets in massive demonstrations of solidarity, in towns, villages and cities on July 11 and 12.  Their motto ‘Patria y Vida expressed their frustrations as they experience record cases of Covid-19, a lack of vaccines, adequate medical care and needed supplies – inhuman circumstances that add to the existing lack of food and essential human necessities.  Their chant of ‘Libertad’ underscores their desire for every Cuban citizen to enjoy basic human rights, as recognized as part of our human dignity by the United Nations, and defended for centuries by the Catholic Church in its social teaching.

As Cubans and as bishops of the Catholic Church in the United States, we are ever-mindful of the constant suffering and frustration of our brothers and sisters on the Island.  We recognize that, while hundreds of thousands have experienced the need to emigrate, in order to enjoy basic human rights and a future filled with possibilities, those who have not – by choice or inability to do so - as Cubans in Cuba, are to be the actors of their own future and aspirations.  The right and courage of the people in Cuba to raise their voice publicly, casting away their fear of repression and revealing authentic solidarity as a people, are acknowledged and applauded.  

We, Cuban-American bishops, join in solidarity with the Cuban people in their quest for responses to their human rights and needs.  We are deeply troubled by the aggressive reaction of the government to the peaceful manifestations, recognizing that ‘violence engenders violence.’   Such a reaction seems to negate the basic Cuban principle of having ‘una patria con todos y para el bien de todos’ (a homeland with all and for the good of all).  We stand in solidarity with those detained because they have voiced their opinions.  We pray for their families and call for their immediate release.

Finally, we call on international governments and all charitable organizations to collaborate in assisting in this urgent humanitarian crisis for the sake of the suffering people of Cuba, especially the sick and the poor. We commend the care of Caritas Cubana, as it continues to mediate – with ever so limited resources – a response to the basic human needs of the people of the Island, recognizing that the alleviation of suffering is a moral imperative. 

As always, together with our brother-bishops in Cuba, and our brothers and sisters inside and outside the Island. We continue to place our trust in the motherly gaze of the patroness of Cuba, Our Lady of Charity.”

Most Reverend Nelson Perez                          Most Reverend Manuel Cruz
Archbishop of Philadelphia                            Auxiliary Bishop of Newark

Most Reveend Felipe Estevez                          Most Reverend Octavio Cisneros
Bishop of St. Augustine                                   Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of Brooklyn

Trump: Get Tough; Stand Up For Cuban Freedom

July 12, 2021 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

Big demonstrations are breaking out in Cuba and Miami in protest of the Communist Cuban Government (although, today there are zero protesters in Cuba—you know what that means!). Don’t forget that Biden and the Democrats campaigned on reversing my very tough stance on Cuba. Remember when Obama attended baseball games with Castros while they imprisoned, beat, and killed the Cuban people. I stand with the Cuban people 100% in their fight for freedom. The Government must let them speak and be free! Joe Biden MUST stand up to the Communist regime or—history will remember. The Cuban people deserve freedom and human rights!  THEY ARE NOT AFRAID!

Watch As Cubans Fight Valiantly For Freedom!

How Radical Can Dems Get? Outrageously Radical!

From our friends at Save Jersey (reprinted with permission)
Note - The "today" referenced in this article was yesterday, April 3:
No less than eight current 2020 Democrat presidential candidates are visiting the Warner Theater in Washington D.C. for today’s “We the People” summit.
According to Fox News, the conference of far-left activists opened with Jamal Watkins, Vice President of “Civic Engagement” for the NAACP, leading attendees in a chant of “We have nothing to lose but our chains.” That slogan is associated with notorious cop-killer Joanne Chesimard who murdered New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster on the New Jersey Turnpike back in 1973.

Chesimard is presently hiding in Cuba despite her conviction in absentia.
NJSP Colonel Patrick Callahan issued a fiery statement after the Fox story broke.
“It is an affront to every man and woman who wears the badge that someone would chose to evoke the words of a convicted cop killer and fugitive from justice at a political conference,” said Callahan. “The men and women of the New Jersey State Police will never forget the sacrifice made by Trooper Werner Foerster on May 2, 1973 nor will we forget that the person convicted of his murder remains a fugitive for nearly 40 years. We will remain steadfast, both in the pursuit of Joanne Chesimard and in the preservation of the memory of Trooper Werner Foerster, Badge #2608.”
Notwithstanding her heinous history, Chesimard remains a pop culture icon in certain Leftist circles, having been honored by both the Women’s March and, later, Jet Blue before the airline giant apologized.
