Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) has brought word of a new low from the Biden-Harris regime, which has already faced serious criticism for turning a blind eye to the plight of Anti-communist protestors resisting the authoritarian regime of Cuban Presidente Miguel Díaz-Canel, heir to the blood-soaked Castro regime. According to Senator Scott, the White House abruptly hung up on him during a call to speak with someone in the administration regarding the abuse that freedom-fighter J. Daniel Ferrer is enduring as a prisoner of Diaz-Canel’s illegitimate regime.
The @WhiteHouse just hung up on me when I called to talk to someone about the horrific torture & abuse @jdanielferrer is experiencing as a prisoner of the illegitimate communist Cuban regime.
This isn’t just weakness, it’s shameful cowardice. I won’t tolerate it. #SOSCuba

Since the July installation of Diaz-Canel, 100 Democrat-Socialists in Congress rather than taking a hard-line stance against the vile depredations of the Communists, have lobbied the administration to dramatically drop restrictions against the regime and engage them diplomatically. Reportedly Biden is refusing to go either way seeming satisfied to avoid the issue at all costs, simultaneously refusing to take Republicans calls regarding Havana and refusing to commit to the demands of Congressional Democrats.
The Deafening Silence of Biden To The Cuban People
NBC reported, “There’s a rule before July 11 and after July 11,” Juan Gonzalez, the National Security Council’s senior director for the Western Hemisphere, told NBC News, referring to the historic protests that took place in Cuba over the summer.
“After July 11, we hit the pause button,” Gonzalez said. “Even those Cuban Americans that were pro-engagement said, ‘We need to wait — we need to look at this moment and figure out how we move forward from here.’”
It’s a far cry from what Senator Marco Rubio called for in July as the streets of Cuba were alive with protests that could’ve succeeded with American encouragement.
“‘What can we do?’ is what people want to know. Number one, I hope we will all be clear about whose side we’re on. You don’t even have to agree with anything I’ve said. What you should agree with is that people everywhere in the world, including 90 miles from our shore, should be allowed to go into the street, peacefully march, call for an end to dictatorship, and not have their head cracked open.
“By the way, no one in Cuba has guns except the military, so why are these repressive forces walking around with these rifles and people [are] getting shot? They’re shooting people that literally are unarmed… We should be clear in our language. We don’t just condemn this tyranny; we condemn this communism, this Marxist — this socialist — tyranny. Call it for what it is.”
No such affirmation ever came, no support of any kind, no words of encouragement for the protestors, no condemnation for the regime, no warnings, no threats of repercussions for atrocities, just a pause… a silence… a hung-up phone.
