In a report published by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, this month, it was revealed that Cuba attempted to influence the 2022 mid-term elections. The report also details attempts by China, Iran, and Russia to influence elections in the United States, and while Cuba’s interference was much smaller in scale, it was also far more focused.
Naturally, that focus was primarily on Florida, where Cuba ran “operations aimed at denigrating specific US candidates”, though the report notes that its scope probably wasn’t limited to Florida alone.
According to the Miami Herald:
The report, released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, said that Cuban officials worked to build relationships with members of the American media who held critical views of Havana’s critics in Congress, and that a network of social media accounts “almost certainly covertly tied” to Cuba “amplified derogatory content” on U.S. politicians viewed as hostile to the Cuban state.
The declassified portion of the intelligence assessment does not name any specific individuals who were targeted, and much of the report’s section on Cuba’s activities are redacted. The assessment also does not say how effective Havana’s influence campaign was on Florida’s elections.
It’s a testament to the state of the American media that our enemies can use it as a petri dish to cultivate whatever mind virus they want to infect the public with. If only the targets of the Cuban operations weren’t redacted, because I’d love to see which U.S. politicians our enemies fear enough to want to keep out of office.

No, Endorsing Kamala Harris for President Isn’t What Jesus Would Do
by The Federalist
Christians should reject the backward theology of teachers who twist the character of Christ to punish their political enemies. “Never Trump. This time Harris. Always Jesus.” These were the words not of Taylor Swift or Pete Buttigieg but of Ray Ortlund, a card-carrying member of “Big Eva,” in a recent…

It seems all of a sudden the issue of lifting sanctions on Cuba has arisen. Why?
Ask my Congressman Jim McGovern of Massachusetts on the House ways and means. He visits Cuba, he will say its for Hemingway’s Cuba property and his novels which is lame. Check out his photos with Fidel and his peculiar love of Hispanic under dogs, what we would call Terrorists like the shining path and support of Nicaragua. Some has called his interest a fetish, but it is just Marxism. There is no humor or light heartedness in his fetish as people will see in the coming months.
