Mark Rubio has achieved greatness. The liberals are the only ones who refuse to admit that.
Greatness? He is ruthless to his own heritage.
FYI
Cuba is currently facing a severe and deepening humanitarian crisis that United Nations experts warn is nearing a total socio-economic collapse.
Following the enactment of U.S. Executive Order 14380 in late January 2026, which imposed a fuel blockade and tariffs on third-party oil suppliers, the island has been paralyzed by critical shortages of energy, food, and medicine.
Current Conditions
* Health and Water: Over 80% of water pumping equipment depends on electricity, leading to widespread loss of safe water and sanitation. Intensive care units and emergency rooms are compromised, and a lack of refrigeration is ruining essential vaccines and blood products.
* Food Scarcity: The fuel shortage has disrupted the harvesting of crops and the national food rationing system, leaving many Cubans hungry.
* Infrastructure Collapse: Rolling blackouts of up to 20 hours occur daily. Schools and universities have been closed, public transport has largely ceased, and garbage is piling up in cities because trash trucks lack fuel.
* Public Health: Cases of dengue, chikungunya, and the Oropouche virus are surging due to the breakdown of municipal waste and sanitation systems.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights has expressed extreme worry over the "disproportionate impact" on vulnerable groups, including children and the elderly. Many nations, including Canada and the UK, have advised against all non-essential travel to the island as it struggles with these catastrophic shortages.
Secretary Rubio effectively launders the devastating humanitarian impact of the U.S. fuel blockade through a lens of 'statutory necessity,' dismissing the starvation of the Cuban people as an inevitable byproduct of the regime’s own 'intransigence' while simultaneously using his Cuban heritage to moralize a strategy of asphyxiation that he frames as a liberation, rather than a cause, of the island's collapse
