Cuba Kills 4 Exiles Trying to "Infiltrate" Island by Boat as U.S. “Medieval Siege” of Cuba Continues
Americans are a cruel people. Trump is especially cruel. Americans call themselves Christian—Nay! They insist that they are Christian—but Jesus wouldn’t recognise them as such. Americans are about as far away from Christianity and Christian principles as it is possible to get! Greed, cruelty, and mercilessness abounds in America, especially under the leadership of Trump and his cronies.
I am no communist sympathiser. But so what if a tiny island such as Cuba chooses to live by communist principles? What possible difference could this make to the Goliath that is America today?
Instead of going to church next Sunday, I suggest that Americans look into their mirrors and ask themselves one simple question: Am I really living according to Christian principles? — © Mark Alexander

Cuba's U.N. Ambassador Denounces U.S. Oil Blockade, Push to Topple Government

Trump is a wicked, evil man! As is Marco Rubio.
One doesn’t have to endorse communism for one’s heart to go out to the longsuffering people of Cuba. These are human beings who are suffering needlessly. All the while, Trump and his warped acolytes are living in the lap of luxury.
There is no conceivable reason why Cuba should be considered a threat to the USA. This ‘war on Cuba’ is based solely on ideology and prejudice. Further, the endgame for Trump must surely be the dollar signs he is able to visualize when he can build Trump towers and hotels on the beautiful island. He must surely be salivating even as I write this over the billions he and his crooked family will be able to make from monetizing the island! For he will surely sequestrate any assets available in Cuba for himself, his bent family, and for his warped little helpers.
Had the US authorities had the balls to incarcerate Trump when they had the chance to do so, Cuba, Venezuela, and the rest of the world would have been spared the nightmare of Trump. Alas, the spunk was wanting! Now, we all have to suffer. Some, of course, more than others. – © Mark Alexander
House Passes "Worst Voter Suppression Bill Ever" in Latest Push to Help Trump Take Over Elections
Feb 13, 2026 | The Republican-controlled House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to require proof of U.S. citizenship in the November midterm elections. If it becomes law, it would be the "worst voter suppression bill ever passed by Congress," according to Ari Berman, national voting rights correspondent for Mother Jones. "The bill really combines a lot of the worst things that Republicans want to do with regards to voting, and it comes at a time when Trump appears dead set to try to interfere in the midterm elections," he adds.
Wednesday's vote sends the legislation on to the Republican-led Senate, where it is expected to receive a vote but unlikely to garner the 60-vote, filibuster-proof majority needed for passage.

Colombia Senator Clara López Obregón: Latin America Needs "Collective" Response to U.S. Aggression
Feb 4, 2026 | After several months of rising tension between them, Colombian President Gustavo Petro sat down with U.S. President Donald Trump in a closed-door meeting that lasted approximately two hours at the White House on Tuesday. The two leaders have exchanged threats and insults since Trump returned to office in 2025, with Petro harshly criticizing the U.S. bombing of boats at sea and for threatening the sovereignty of countries in Latin America. Both leaders took a much more conciliatory tone after their meeting, with Petro sharing a photo of them shaking hands alongside a handwritten note from Trump calling it an "honor" and adding, "I love Colombia."
Colombian Senator Clara López Obregón, speaking to Democracy Now! from Bogotá, says the White House meeting was an important "repositioning" of the relationship, and cautions that the region needs a more coordinated response to "coercion" from the U.S. "Latin America, unfortunately, has been unable to structure meaningful and permanent instruments of collective action, so each country has to negotiate on its own from a position of weakness."
