Little Havana Conquers Congress

  Maybe The USA Is Next!!

    On January 1-1959 when the Cuban Revolution overthrew the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Havana, it quickly spawned Little Havana in the heart of nearby Miami, Florida. The expectation was that the ultra-rich and ultra-powerful Batistianos, Mafiosi, and the United States would recapture Cuba within weeks,  or least in a few months!! But now, deep in the month of March in 2021, Revolutionary Cuba still rules the Caribbean's largest island nation. Immediately in 1959 Cuban exiles overwhelmed Miami with vast amount of money and firepower; soon Cubans dominated South Florida and then all of Florida; and soon thereafter, thanks to help from the Bush dynasty, they became a force in the U. S. Congress. Now early in 2021 they perhaps feel able to savor the prospect of dominating the whole USA.
      There are many journalists who understand this trajectory but there is just one that has both the insight and the courage to express it, and that is Alvaro Fernandez. He is the Editor of Progresso Weekly, which is based in Miami. And no one, except possibly the perpetrators themselves, knows as much as Mr. Fernandez about Little Havana!!
      Little Havana's U. S. Senator Marco Rubio is the prime spokesperson in the U. S. Congress and in the mainstream U. S. media about how decent the Batista-Mafia rule in Cuba was and, by contrast, how indecent Revolutionary Cuba has been since 1959. Deeply ingrained within the bowels of the U. S. Democracy, that lie -- even backed with massive money, gruesome terror, awesome military power, and unending legal legislation -- has YET TO recapture Cuba but, in the last six+ decades it has surely bestowed wealth and power to a litany of Little Havana Counter Revolutionaries. Along the way, only a handful of journalists have had the integrity or courage to criticize Little Havana leaders. So, the Alvaro Fernandez/Progreso Weekly depiction of Marco Rubio in the graphic shown above is, uh, let's say unusual. Yet, in these last days of March-2021, Alvaro Fernandez penned another article that again pointedly focuses on his belief that Little Havana shames the entire USA by continually sending only unchecked Counter Revolutionary Cuban zealots to Washington.
       Above is the headline of an article that Alvaro Fernandez wrote this week criticizing Little Havana's latest contributions to the U. S. Congress.
      This was the photo that Alvaro Fernandez used of Carlos Gimenez, whom Alvaro knows well and therefore laments Gimenez's new role in Congress. Now 67, Carlos Gimenez was born in 1954 in Havana during the Batista-Mafia rule of Cuba. He was the Major of Miami-Dade County from 2011 till 2020 during his euphoric rise to being one of Little Havana's most powerful Counter Revolutionaries. No problem!! Even as Alvaro Fernandez's headline depicted above proclaims: "MIAMI'S CARLOS GIMENEZ EPITOMIZES THE GREED THAT CHARACTERIZES CONGRESSIOBAL REPUBLICANS."
      In the aforementioned article the great & brave Miami journalist Alvaro Fernandez used this photo to discuss three of Little Havana's Counter Revolutionaries that Alvaro obviously wishes were not in the U. S. CONGRESS -- Carlos Gimenez, Maria Elvira Salazar, and Mario Diaz-Balart. The first two are newcomers to Congress but, of course, either Mario Diaz-Balart or his brother Lincoln Diaz-Balart have staunchly represented Little Havana in the U. S. Congress for the last three decades. The rich & powerful Diaz-Balart brothers are the sons of MIGUEL Diaz-Balart who was a powerful Minister in the Batista dictatorship and then, beginning in January of 1959, one of the richest and most powerful Counter Revolutionaries that created Little Havana into a powerhouse. Of course, Alvaro Fernandez considers anyone of power in Little Havana to be just about as Counter Revolutionary as the Diaz-Balart leaders. This is some of what Alvaro Fernandez wrote about the three Little Havana members of Congress shown in the photo above:
       Note above that the notable Miami journalist Alvaro Fernandez, in his article, explained succinctly about what he believes is "...the greed they adhere to. But the truth is that not one of the three is worth the paper I'm writing these words on." In other words, the best and bravest journalist in Miami, Alvaro Fernandez, longs for the day when Little Havana and Miami can elect politicians who are NOT Counter Revolutionary extremists!!!!! And, I believe, more Americans and Cuban-Americans should agree with him.
