    Politically, PBS has demonstrated it’s bias toward socialism / communism for a number of years.
    A documentary called, “Nobody Listened” which was an exposition detailing the brutal offerings of the Castro government, PBS refused to air it.
    On the other hand, when the documentary called “Uncompromising Revolution” came out which was totally pro Communism, PBS was thrilled to air it.

    Our tax dollars militating against us.

    I recall some years ago when the fight to make PBS survive on its own flared up, I think it was reports that the marketing rights to Elmo alone were somewhere around $300 Million.

    From CBS News yesterday:

    "People fleeing Cuba and Haiti by boat will not be allowed to enter the U.S., even if they demonstrate fear of being persecuted or tortured in their home countries, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas warned on Tuesday.

    "Allow me to be clear: if you take to the sea, you will not come to the United States," Mayorkas said, highlighting the dangers of traversing the Caribbean Sea and the Florida Straits by boat."



    Those pesky Cuban illegals need to go to Mexico and sneak in that way since that border is a free-for-all.

    So how Mexicans can just come here for asylum from unemployment, but the real definition of asylum from persecution no longer applies???

    We don't need no stinkin' anti-Socialists.

    I have an idea why not fight for your freedom but then it won't last long if America is any example.

    It’s not like there’s going to be thousands or millions of Cubans hitting our beaches in inner tube boats like the thousands coming across our borders.
    The southern border is okey-dokey because the dems know they will get the votes from even the illegals but the Cubans? Nope.
    The Dems led by Obama have already shown their backside to the citizens of Cuba by making nice with Castro so the Kennedy edict of giving the Cubans asylum if they make it to the beach is canceled now that they’re about to overthrow the dictatorship.

    Whatcha wanna bet a bunch of American mercenaries are preparing themselves for a battle in Cuba……..

    One thing going for the Cuban citizens is even though the government is essentially a dictatorship they can own guns. That’s not saying that they have any ammunition to put IN the guns but they can own firearms.
