The above photo of U. S. Senator Marco Rubio was used to illustrate a major article in Politico this week -- June 27, 2018. It's entitled: "Senate Farm Bill Stalled by Rubio's Cuba Crusade." Rubio has never set foot on Cuban soil; he is strictly a product of Miami's Little Havana section of Counter Revolutionaries who have been bolstered and financed by self-serving acolytes such as obscenely rich Cubans, the Bush dynasty, the Tea Party, etc. All of Rubio's political and economic fortunes have been built on his willingness to starve totally innocent Cubans on the island to sate the desires of a tiny but vile group of Cuban-Americans in Miami still hiding behind the skirts of the U. S. government in seeking revenge against the Cuban Revolution that overthrew the not-so-angelic Batista-Mafia dictatorship in 1959. Most Cuban-Americans in Miami favor decent treatment of Cubans on the island and, indeed, send about $4 billion of aid to them each year. But it seems only self-serving extremists like Rubio and the Diaz-Balart brothers {whose father was a key Minister in the Batista-Mafia dictatorship} are eligible to get elected to the U. S. Congress from Miami -- YES, the Miami where the decent Cuban-American newsman Emilio Milian was car-bombed after complaining about unchecked Miami extremists murdering innocent Cubans, such as blowing up a civilian airplane, bombing hotels, strafing coastal fishing cabins with cannon-fire from speed-boats, etc.
As just one Counter Revolutionary extremist in the Senate, Rubio blocked President Obama's appointment of a decent diplomat, Jeffrey DeLaurentis, as the U. S. Ambassador to Cuba. As Trump's newly anointed American dictator of Cuba, Rubio has just named a long-time and all-time Counter Revolutionary extremist to head Miami's lucrative tax-sucking anti-Cuban propaganda machine known as Radio-TV Marti. Now this week Rubio is blocking a bill vital to American farmers unless he is allowed to starve, deprive, and make miserable the lives of Cubans on the island, and that just happens to be, according to de-classified U. S. documents, the stated purpose of the Batistiano-loving U. S. embargo against Cuba that has existed since 1962 because of vile, self-serving extremists like Rubio coupled with a democracy unable to challenge extremist anti-Cuban evil-doers.
The Cuban narrative in the U. S. since 1959 has been dictated by extremists such as Rubio to feather their own political and economic nests. Therefore Fabiola Santiago, the Cuban-born Editorial Chief at Rubio's hometown newspaper, the Miami Herald, calls Rubio "a hypocrite." Of course, the intimidated mainstream U. S. media and propagandized Americans often depict Rubio as a choirboy, the Rubio who got all the way to the U. S. Senate still claiming his parents escaped the tyranny of Castro's Cuba when they actually escaped the tyranny of Batista's Cuba long before Americans ever heard of Castro.
The best investigative journalist in the U. S. right now is Ken Silverstein and he happens to have penned the best and longest biographical sketch of Rubio, and it's easily dialed-up online. Ken Silverstein begins his assessment by claiming Rubio "is head and shoulders" above everyone else in Washington when it comes to "corruption and chicanery." And then Ken Silverstein uses a vast amount of dates, names, and episodes to document his opening statement. As far as I know, none of the meticulous Ken Silverstein data on Rubio has ever been disputed, but Americans are programmed, it seems, not to care. And remember...I'm not talking about caring for innocent Cubans on the island because that would be asking TOO MUCH. But I am talking about CARING for Americans, Cuban-Americans, and Democracy.
The aforementioned Politico article this week about Rubio's willingness to starve American farmers in order to starve Cubans on the island is par-for-the-course for the Little Havana "choirboy." He and his ilk have gotten away with such things for 6+ decades and it appears that will be so for another 6+ decades...unless America is blessed with a generation of citizens who truly love America and will defend it.
Ken Silverstein's portrait of Rubio,
the definitive one, I believe,
Does not portray a choirboy;
but in America's name,
he can punish innocent Cubans,
to feather his own nests.
