             .@SecRubio is US offer of aid to Cuba after Hurricane Melissa equal to other nations? Will this aid be handed to the Cuban govt or will the US insist on routing it through private third parties? This modelโs deadly failure in Gaza proved itโs not a neutral or humanitarian option.

             To "stand with the Cuban people" while upholding a blockade that denies them medical supplies & building materials is a lie. Stop the punishment. Lift the blockade. Let Cuba Live! 
           In the wake of Hurricane Melissaโs devastation of eastern Cuba, the Trump Administration stands with the brave Cuban people who continue to struggle to meet basic needs. The United States is prepared to provide immediate humanitarian assistance directly and via local partners

             Despite being hit by one of the most powerful hurricanes in its history, Cuba had no deaths reported. Hurricane Melissa killed at least 30 across the Caribbean and left heavy devastation, but, Santiago residents tell BT's @ldejesusreyes, the whole area was organized and prepared.

             In recent years, police in the U.S. have killed over 1,200 people each year. In 2024, less than 1% of killer cops were charged with a crime. The conviction of Sean Grayson in the murder of Sonya Massey is a refreshing victory for her family & the movement โ Jail all killer cops!

             What is the goal of the US blockade? To prevent Cuba from powering its grid, stocking its pharmacies & feeding its people as a plan for regime change. Itโs a deliberate, calculated strategy to inflict suffering. Year after year, the US votes for it.
