As millions march against communism across Cuba, Biden administration makes an outrageous response
American Thinker ^ | 07/12/2021 | Monica Showalter

Defying death, terror and beatings, millions of Cubans took to the streets across Cuba shouting "Freedom" and "We are not afraid" in a collective call to end to the 62-year communist dictatorship.

It was breathtaking, a thing of beauty, comparable only to Tiananmen or the fall of the Berlin wall.

It took unprecedented courage, too -- against state goons, secret police, government death squads, and paid thugs -- who are responding now like cornered rats, recognizing very well their survival is at stake.

It's too soon to tell if the Cubans have won, a big general strike has been called today. But even if they didn't, this was a vast people's repudiation of communism, that brutal system so praised by the U.S. left.

It was very bad news for the wokester flag-burners and ruling socialists of every stripe over here, many of whom have praised Cuba's brutal regime and burned the U.S. flag, now that the Cubans are waving it.

But the worst response of all has come from the far-left Biden administration.

Rather than standing up for the people of Cuba, and hailing their call for liberty, praising their waving of the U.S. flag, and warning the Castroite communist regime it gets the hammer if it dares hunt them down, beat them, or drag them off in the dead of night, (which they are doing as I write this) the only thing we have from the Biden administration is obfuscating garbage from one lowly "Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs," named Julie Chung.

If you thought Jen Psaki was bad, get a load of this one:

I have a very bad feeling that this is all going to end up like something similar to what happened in Communist China at Tien An Men Square three decades ago.

I hope I’m wrong.

The best scenario would be a Cuban Pinochet taking over and eventually turning Cuba into a Chile ( I can dream can’t I ? ).

Working with Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Twitter, the Biden administration has vowed to help Cuban authorities crack down on these hooligan malcontents.

What would you expect from people ( Democrats) who routinely have pictures of Che and Castro in their offices.

Wishing the best for the Cubans but worry Putin will deploy troops to squash the protesters.

If this can happen in Cuba, I have hope for the United States.

I hope and pray we see communism overthrown.

Many of us remember the events of 1989, when the Berlin Wall fell, and communism was overthrown in country after country in eastern Europe.

And two years later, the Soviet Union was dissolved.

This is another reminder, that communism is imposed by force, and communist governments stay in power by force.

Let’s hope and pray for the Cuban people.

Here is the problem Bidone has. His regime are communists that have suppressed protesting and opinion here in the US by intimidation, fear and violating conservative protesters basic civil rights. They have painted themselves into a corner and the only way to weather the storm is to come up with the most ridiculous responses which only show their nuttiness.

The current administration is 100% behind the communists and their repression of the Cubans. biden will not lift a finger to help them in their quest for freedom, as he eliminates freedom in the USA.

Cuba is a playground for Pedos, that’s why Hollywood celebrities love it so much.

They are protesting because of a YouTube video which insults Islam. Oh, I forgot, that was Benghazi. I hope Susan Rice will explain what’s going on in Cuba as soon as possible.

Correct. However, in a sane world our government would do what they could to help short of boots on the ground.

Prayers up for the people of Cuba. Freedom is never free, but it is worth fighting for!

I too am wondering when the Communist government will order the troops with “peaceful weapons” into the streets to break up the demonstrations. And, even if the Cuban commies start killing the protestors, Biden and the Demo-Communists in Congress will be silent. Or blame the Cuban people for ingratitude toward their Communist masters.
