On May 20, 2026, the United States Department of Justice formally indicted 94-year-old Cuban dictator RaĂșl Castro for conspiracy to commit murder, destruction of aircraft, and four counts of murder related to the 1996 incident where Cuban forces shot down two civilian aircraft carrying Brothers to the Rescue volunteers, killing four Cubans in the Florida Straits. This historic indictment, announced at the Freedom Tower in Miami, represents a significant escalation in US pressure on the Castro regime, coinciding with the deployment of the USS Nimitz nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to the Caribbean and increased drone surveillance flights around Cuba. The indictment carries potential penalties of death or life imprisonment, marking a potential turning point in the pursuit of justice for the victims of the Castro regime's 67-year rule.

đŽ Cuba en la mira: Portaaviones en el Caribe, la CIA en el terreno y RaĂșl Castro imputadoAñadido:
[music] [music] Friends, good morning. Welcome to this program. Welcome to Mag Jorge Castro's social media. Today, Thursday, May 21st. What's on the program today, friends? Because yesterday, everything happened. RaĂșl Castro charged with murder. The murder of four Cubans in the Florida Straits in 1996.
But at the same time, important things were happening in the Caribbean. A United States aircraft carrier was deployed to areas of the Caribbean. New drone surveillance flights around Cuba. This comes as Donald Trump claims that the CIA is inside Cuba along with Marco Rubio. I have all the reactions to what yesterday was, a historic day, a historic May 20th for Cubans, a gift for the day of Cuba's independence.
RaĂșl Castro. The 94-year-old dictator, almost 95, charged with murder. And I have everything here, look, reactions from the regime, reactions from the United States, what is being prepared for the coming days and what is coming from today. I welcome everyone who has been connecting this morning. I ask you to stay for the next hour of the broadcast because we also have special guests to discuss this new reality that is opening up for Cuba. What comes after this indictment? Is the United States really going to act, or is this just another pressure tactic against the dictatorship?
We're going to talk about everything here. So if this is your first time tuning in, please subscribe to our channel and give us a like so that this video gets more exposure on this platform. If you're watching me on my other social media channels, please go to my YouTube channel and subscribe there. To those who are connecting now, who are commenting, as always, thank you. Tell me a message, how was your day yesterday? How did she experience it?
How are you feeling? And if you are inside Cuba, tell me if you have electricity service, how this situation is being felt inside the country. As always, I'll be greeting you throughout the entire broadcast, friends. I'm not going to prolong the introduction any further. Let's get started now because we have a really special program.
Let's begin. [music] Friend, RaĂșl Castro, charged with the murder of four Cubans for shooting down the sister planes on the rescue mission. We'll talk about this later, but while the indictment was taking place in an absolutely extraordinary and historic act at the Freedom Tower there in Florida, Miami, where the acting United States Attorney was, something was stirring in the Caribbean. A US Navy aircraft carrier is in the Caribbean. This was stated by the Southern Command, which published images. But as if this were not enough, just a few minutes into this program, the United States embassy retweeted and stated verbatim that this aircraft carrier was in the Caribbean area. Not only that, but new drone flights. You remember that there were 25 surveillance flights up to last Monday, there must be more than 30 now, again close to the coasts of Cuba in surveillance and espionage operations. And I also have to tell you that it was confirmed, according to Donald Trump, that the CIA was inside Cuba. But let's get into all the details.
I want to start from the beginning. Today, with the information as reported by the Southern Command account, we can confirm the presence of this aircraft carrier in the Caribbean. We're going to see what kind of aircraft carrier it is, where it is, and why this is happening right now; of course, it's an escalation of pressure against the dictatorship. Just look, the Southern Command announces the arrival of the Nmits in the Caribbean on May 20th.
The arrival of the Nimits aircraft carrier strike group to the Caribbean was announced this Wednesday, Independence Day. You are seeing it on screen verbatim, the publication from the Southern Command. This deployment comes at a time of heightened tension between the United States and the Castro regime. Just yesterday, Independence Day. This is no coincidence. And just yesterday, while it was being announced in Florida that RaĂșl Castro was being indicted, the Southern Command posted the following announcement on its Twitter account: "Welcome to the Caribbean, NIMITS Strike Group," describing the formation as an epitome of readiness and presence, unparalleled range and lethality, and strategic advantage. A strike group comprised of the aircraft carrier Nimis, the embarked air wing, the destroyer Hitley, and a replenishment ship Pautex. All of this in the Caribbean area.
And no, it's no coincidence that this was announced yesterday, nor is it a coincidence that it's being announced with such fanfare. So much so that I'm going to present you with breaking newsâthis is breaking news. The United States Embassy is echoing this information, and it's doing so intentionally, friends, because in politics, these acts, like what we 're seeing, this public and conspicuous presence of the aircraft carrier, have significance, and the fact that the United States Embassy is stating it in this way, which I'm about to present, also means... It has. They are undoubtedly putting pressure on the Castro regime. There it is, the United States embassy. It says the following: "Southern Command, welcome to the Caribbean, the Nimits Carrier Strike Group, the Nimits Carrier Strike Group, the embarked area, the Hildrey and the Pauten." There's the embassy, ââalso advertising this video that I'm going to show you next, and you can let me know if this is a coincidence or if this, friends, is also part of, as we say, a communications war that has kept the Castro regime awake for many weeks. Take a look at the images; I'm going to show them to you exactly as the southern command presented them. I'm not going to put it in audio because, well, it might trigger a copyright claim, but while this plays, so you can see what's currently happening in the Caribbean.
This is currently deployed in the Caribbean. I'm going to talk about the characteristics of this aircraft carrier.
Look, aircraft carriers. And I'll go over the features while you look at these images. It's about, it's about, I have it here, let me look for it, here it is, from a nuclear city. This aircraft carrier does not run on conventional fuel; it moves thanks to nuclear reactors based on enriched uranium. It allows the NIMITS to sail for a virtually unlimited time, and also without refueling, which allows it to tactically sustain complex military operations over time. I'll go into more details.
It is 330 m long, weighs 100,000 tons, and has a crew of 5,000. It's like a large floating city in the middle of the Caribbean right now, capable of housing dozens of houses, airplanes, radar and helicopters inside. It has defense systems to avoid missiles and drones, and can also defend itself if attacked at close range by another ship or its submarine, as it has automatic cannons. I also tell you that he is always escorted by destroyers, cruisers and submarines, among others. This is near the waters of Cuba, it's in the Caribbean, and it's also being publicized by the United States. But this is not only happening in Cuba, and this is not the only thing that is happening, such an intense day for the Cuban people as yesterday.
New drone reconnaissance and surveillance flights on the coasts of Cuba. There are more than 25. I would say almost 30, because since CNN reported last Monday that there were 25, they have continued to happen. I'm going with the images, as always, from trusted accounts that follow the aerial and naval monitoring of everything that moves around the island. Look here, I'm presenting to you. Look at the trajectory. This was yesterday. I'm going to read your comments right away, because I see you've left me several comments here.
I am very grateful for everything you are writing to me and I will get to the comments shortly, but I want to finish this idea that I want to convey to you.
Take a look at the flight of other reconnaissance drones. Classified US Navy MQ4C Triton drone, flying over the Caribbean preparing to monitor the island. There you have it. Another flight. I'd love to know what you all think, but this isn't the only thing. Yesterday, Donald Trump was asked, among other things, about RaĂșl Castro's accusation regarding the future of what might happen with Cuba.
I have these statements later, but there was one of the many she made that caught my attention. Donald Trump specifically said that the CIA and Marco Rubio were on the ground in Cuba. He said this. He also said that Cuba was being liberated. And well, it's valid for us to comment on these statements here. There were other things that happened yesterday that we will also discuss, but let's start with this one. Donald Trump claiming that the CIA was on the ground. Here it is.
They've been looking for 65 but we're going in the meantime we're going to have to help them out. They have no way of living. They have no food. They have no electricity. They have no energy at all. But they do have great people. A lot of great people. I mean, I have so many Cuban friends in Miam mostly in Miami and Florida. And they're an unbelievable people. They're unbelievable entrepreneurs and that like to go back. I think they hopefully they're going to want to live here, but they want to go back. Maybe they'll invest. We'll see what happens. But we're freeing up Cup. Very good, friends.
And while all this is happening, while Donald Trump claims that the CI is there, that Marco Rubio is there, while there is an aircraft carrier deployed in the Caribbean, while this is publicized by the United States embassy itself and by the Southern Command, while drone flights continue. Yesterday, a CBC News report stated that US intelligence is already assessing how the Castro regime might respond militarily to a possible military operation in Cuba. Look at the headline. This was yesterday, late at night. Yesterday, everything happened. Yesterday was a really intense day. We had two days of live broadcasts here, and it was a lot of work, but definitely satisfying. CBS News reports, "The U.S. intelligence community is analyzing how Cuba might respond to military action." And it's important to keep in mind that this is n't something new; this has been going on for a few weeks now. Remember how we were stating here on this same channel that the Pentagon was preparing, at least measuring, military plans and operations to present to Trump in case the president decided to act. We then saw that other media outlets claimed that this military option could indeed be on the table. And yesterday we saw how the United States intelligence apparatus is analyzing how Castroism might respond to a military operation.
All this while RaĂșl Castro is being charged with various offenses. The truth is that we 've had a few intense weeks, but look, according to this CBS News report, Pentagon and CIA analysts have begun to develop military assessments and options for the President of the United States while they monitor the movements of a sanctioned Russian oil tanker heading towards Cuba. DBS says that work is already underway on possible military scenarios and the consequences of an operation against the island, including the reaction of the Cuban regime and the impact on the region. The revelation comes amid a historic escalation, as I am narrating here. With this scenario in place, with the table set, we need to talk about the context, we need to talk about what is happening around Cuba. To talk about Cuba, I wanted to begin today's program by thanking each and every one of you who have been tuning in and who joined me yesterday, a very busy day. And I'm sure you slept very well, right?
Well, you slept in your own bed, you slept with a clear conscience. I'm sure you're all at peace and were able to sleep. If you're in Cuba, maybe you didn't sleep as well, perhaps because of the blackout, because of the heat, but you have a clear conscience knowing that no one is going to come to your house and arrest you like a criminal. Well, I have to tell you that RaĂșl Castro can't say the same. I do n't know what's going on with the old dictator's security, but at the very least, they've surely put him and his family in a bunker, because what happened with NicolĂĄs Maduro is still very fresh. It's very fresh, it's in the public consciousness, it's there, it's there. And that's what I'm going to talk about. Right away. I want to thank everyone who has been tuning in this hour, and I'm going to post Orlando's message here. He says, "I, I didn't take this away from my children." He says, "This is to celebrate the outrage against the murderous dictator for a free Cuba soon." "Thanks for everything, Mac," they tell me here. Thank you so much, Orlando, and also for that contribution, the journalism we do here.
Thank you so much, really. I want to take this opportunity to say hello to Iliana, and to JĂĄer MejĂa, who says, "We repeat, Tron and Marco have the plan and they're not going to reveal it." I also want to say hello to RaĂșl, who didn't sleep, neither he, nor Cangrejo, nor Mariela, nor all those people who must be avoiding the heat because they only have air-conditioned tunnels, but at least they're not sleeping peacefully. And let me tell you, I don't know if Delta Force is going to come in tomorrow and take RaĂșl away. In fact, I don't think it will happen.
RaĂșl Castro is 94 years old. At 94, he doesn't have much time left, we have to say it like that, right? One, two, or maybe less.
The truth is, I doubt they'll capture him, but for him and his family to spend the last years of their lives without sleeping peacefully, for me, that's already... A satisfaction. Furthermore, he has been treated like the criminal he is. I send greetings to Yaser and Iliana. I have people connected here on Facebook, all of you. Greetings also to Eduardo, Arelis, and Yami. Greetings to everyone, friends. I really have several here: Patricio, Diego, Belquy, Yamirca. And a preacher of Christ from Facebook. To everyone who has been connecting at this time. I invite you to continue with the program because I also have a special guest.
Today we will have Carolina Barrero here to discuss the issue of RaĂșl Castro's indictment. She will be connecting with us shortly. I had already arranged with her for 8:40 a.m.
Cuban time. So I want to give a brief introduction to what happened yesterday.
We'll talk with Carolina and continue with the program because I don't want to keep you here. I want to begin, friends. A historic day... This May 20th. It's historic, there's no other way to describe it, not only because it's another anniversary of our nation's independence, but because the Cuban dictator RaĂșl Castro has been accused of conspiring to assassinate American citizens, of damaging American aircraft, of the four deaths, the four murders of Cubans there in the Florida Straits, members of the Brothers to the Rescue program.
A historic day in Florida that was obviously also emotional for the Cubans who live there in Miami. This has been truly special, not only for them, but for everyone. As I was saying, yesterday was a day of mixed feelings because, aside from knowing that perhaps an extradition won't happen, or perhaps it will, I don't know, but we have to start calling these people what they are: criminals. We have to start treating them as such, and let this be a step towards what might happen tomorrow when we achieve democracy, because there can be no democracy and freedom without truth, justice, and reparations, without the crimes of these people at least being documented. We cannot speak of democracy without that. And I just want to... To illustrate some of what was happening, I'll show you this video of the Acting U.S. Attorney making public the indictment of conspiracy to commit murder against RaĂșl Castro. Look at the images.
[applause][ovation] Mr. Castro and the others are charged with additional crimes as well, including destruction of aircraft and four individual counts of murder.
The indictment was returned by a grand jury sitting in this district in Miami on April 23, 2026, and was unsealed today.
The Acting U.S. Attorney said, "My message is clear." The United States and President Trump do not and will not forget their citizens, Acting Attorney General Tol Blanch said at this press conference. The formal accusation against RaĂșl Castro, which I will show you here in the historical document. This is historic, you are seeing it on screen. It is a seven-count indictment, including conspiracy to murder U.S. citizens, destruction of aircraft, and murder for each of the four passengers aboard the sister planes on the rescue mission. The truth, friends, is a historic day that we will be talking about here because there are already reactions, there are reactions of all kinds, there are reactions from the regime, there are reactions from the United States. And I also want to address what will happen next. But look, we'll talk about all of this, but I want to introduce today's guest, a guest we're going to discuss this topic with because, besides Carolina Barrero, I'm also interested in talking about the situation in the European Union and Cuba.
So I welcome you all here.
Carolina, it's a pleasure to have you here on the program, a pleasure for me to be here and accompany you and to comment on everything that happened yesterday, May 20, 2026. As you said in your posts, what a great day to be alive, to see it and to tell about it.
I am, in fact, in a very special place, I don't know if you can see it, what I have behind me is what remains of the Berlin Wall. I'm in Berlin for an Atlas Network event, once again walking, traveling the world to talk about Cuba and denounce the truth, uh, denounce the propaganda of Castroism that has taken such deep root here in Europe, especially in Germany, despite the fact that we share that common past. You invited me to be in your interview, and I had just come to the wall to remember it, to touch it whenever I'm here, and to feel and to know that the Wall of the Americas, which is the Castro dictatorship, is very close to falling. And I'm very happy to share this interview with you from this symbolic place on such important dates for the history of our country. It is truly exciting because you are witnessing a symbol that dictatorships and freedom-crushing regimes fall. No matter how long it takes, they fall. I wanted to ask you because yesterday was a historic day, beyond the consequences this may bring, since if RaĂșl Castro was extradited, captured, taken away, I wouldn't know the term to say to the United States, but how do you assess this accusation?
Justice is coming, and the most important message this outrage is finally sending is that there will be no impunity for tyrants; there will be no way to send a message to history and the future that they can repeat these crimes without consequences. There are consequences, and we will not perpetuate impunity. This Indimen has taken a long time. I want to remind you that we published an article about it here in January of this year. It's on the Ciudadanos website, right? It's called RaĂșl Castro, the drug trafficker, and it was an article that told the story of when RaĂșl was about to receive an indenture in May of '93. We shared the cover of Gerald there where it said it, the chain of command that at that time they had found that included Fidel Castro. At that time, INDEME was being investigated for drug trafficking, and that case was closed in '93. This was before the events of February 24, 1996, which were the events of the downing of the aircraft of this indimen. That case was closed by the Bill Clinton administration, and then when the planes were shot down there was also an attempt to indict, which was also thwarted in the same way, and 30 years later this moment of justice is arriving. But I'm very happy because, look, drug trafficking crimes were a topic that was discussed a lot when I published the article, it was in the public eye, we saw it on the program with Juan Manuel Cao, they expire, that is, after 5 years they expire and you have to open a new file and look for evidentiary proof. In the case of Castroism, they very cleverly changed their approach in the early 2000sâand these are statements that Hugo Carvajal himself gave in his testimonies after being imprisoned by Carlos Lederâ because they knew they could suffer the same fate as Noriega in '89. And in fact, that's why they had the scapegoat of Cause One: the murders of the La Guardia brothers, Dochoa, and a series of other people who served as scapegoats to cleanse themselves.
Then they escaped the indignity that Bill Clinton brought to a close. They knew that the drug business, which is a Castro businessâthat is, the link between the state and drug trafficking and organized crimeâis a Castroist design in the Americas that they later exported to other countries. In the case of Venezuela, they were the ones who implemented it in the early 2000s.
This is stated in declarations and testimonies of Hugo Carvajal and Carlos Leder himself. Leder said that it was Cuban intelligence who presented ChĂĄvez with this scheme, this scheme in which the State becomes the FedEx of drugs. So, what they did was what they had in Callo Largo, in Varadero, which they used the runways to, uh, to transport the drugs, to do the distribution, they outsourced it to Venezuela, which is right next to Colombia.
So, it was much easier to get to Venezuela, then to Central America, or by sea in boats to the coasts of the United States, and they involved Cuban territory in the least possible way. However, they have always been behind the scenes, controlling and profiting handsomely from it. It was much more complicated to find evidence, but there was this famous recording, which journalist Wilfredo Cancio published; that is, it was brought to light, and it is irrefutable proof because it is RaĂșl Castro's voice saying that they can shoot down the planes, that they don't need approval, and that they should shoot them down at sea so as not to cause harm. Yes, there it is. We have heard it these days; you can surely transmit it to the audience, and it is irrefutable proof because it is RaĂșl's voice saying that they should proceed with shooting down the planes at sea.
So, with these elements, a grand jury, the case was opened at the beginning of this year.
Everything also coincided after Maduro's capture and after this debate about RaĂșl's indignation resurfaced in the public eye, and a grand jury in the Southern District of Florida gave a verdict of yes to the accusation, finding sufficient evidence. And well, the United States, through Acting Attorney General Top Blanch, yesterday unsealed that indignation, made it public, as he said, on seal, and we see that there are seven charges, including the murder of four people, destruction of property, and conspiracy to commit murder. I want to tell you, Macel, that for these charges, RaĂșl Castro could not only face the death penalty, but also life imprisonment, which are the consequences of these charges in the United States. We are talking about a very serious situation that also includes an arrest warrant issued against him. We don't know what's going to happen, but all of this is hanging over the head of the nonagenarian dictator.
I wanted to ask you because, well, RaĂșl Castro is 94 years old, he may die tomorrow or next year, he knows that, well, life has taken its toll on him, hasn't it? But beyond whether he can be captured or not, do n't you think this is the beginning of a process of truth, justice, and reparation that is absolutely necessary to build democracy in Cuba?
Without that there can be no, there can be no clean slate.
Absolutely, McDiel, it's, I see it the same way you do. This is the beginning of a process of truth, justice, and reparation. Uh, we know it's not just about RaĂșl Castro, it's also about Fidel Castro, who died peacefully in his bed, but history [music] will absorb him, yes, but will remember him for what he was, as a tyrant. And this is the beginning of that process. He also said yesterday in an interview with Telemundo that the charge against him, which is for murder, represents for me the thousands, the tens of thousands of dead whose blood Castroism has on its hands. In other words, they have massacred our people for almost 70 years. So many people have died at sea, in prisons, before firing squads. Mothers who have died of sadness like Soila, so many people who have died of hunger, of curable diseases, leading people like Osvaldo PayĂĄ, Laura PollĂĄn and so many others, eh eh Pedro Luis Boitel, so many people, the victims of the tugboat 13 de marzo. too much. These are tens of thousands of deaths, and these are deaths that are rarely discussed in the international community; even we often have them blurred, but we are talking about tens of thousands of deaths in these 70 years. Everyone is so clear about the victims of Pinochet. Now we're going to talk about the dead of Castro's regime. And this indignation, which is a formal indignation, for me comes to summarize, to be a symbol, to represent all those thousands of deaths.
It is an outrage that is also in a federal court, there is an arrest warrant, so Castroism will never sleep again. RaĂșl Castro is not going to die like Fidel Castro, eh, knowing that eh he is not having, for me that is more than enough consequence on a day like yesterday, May 20, probably May 20, happier than the day we began to restore that dignity that has been stolen from us, eh, and what a great day to live it and to tell about it. Yesterday I was saying, toasts were being offered at every Cuban table yesterday, because as you say, there is a lot of pent-up pain. It's been 67 years of death, of injustice, of this small group of people believing themselves to be above, that is, above good and evil. They believed their actions had no consequences, and yesterday those consequences began to materialize even without them being imprisoned. Because the fact that they are charged, that they are treated as criminals, is a demonstration of all the damage they have done. I wanted to, well, now anything can happen, anything can happen too. Because nobody thought that Maduro entering Cuba and putting these people behind bars would be much easier than the extraction operation from Venezuela. I tell you, it would be a moment of great restitution for the Cuban nation to be able to see RaĂșl, whatever his age may be, handcuffed, handcuffed behind bars. I wish it would be even more powerful within Cuba, but wherever he is, that he is behind bars and has to answer to a court of justice, him and the others involved, many of whom are alive and many are in custody, and those who have to pay the consequences, it would truly be a very great and very important restitution for the Cuban nation. It would undoubtedly be a day of jubilation. I wanted to ask you why you're in Berlin; we have that wonderful image with the wall in the background. I am truly excited because, gentlemen, Castroism is going to fall.
Uh, no, no, I don't know if it will be tomorrow, I don't know if it will be next year, but it's going to happen. These systems fail. No system that is installed above individual freedoms and with repression, there is the proof. You're in Europe and I don't want to miss this opportunity because yesterday we reported that the cooperation agreement with Castroism was going to be reviewed. Citizenship and freedom. I had been announcing it for a few weeks, but yesterday it was announced by the... the... of Cajala, that's her name, right? She is the representative for foreign relations of the European Union. What do you think about this? Because Europe has looked the other way for too long. You are in a symbol of what the communist tragedy was for this continent, which is often blind, deaf, and mute to what happens to the Cuban people, right?
That's how it is. And I am very pleased to be able to say it from here, from Berlin, the heart of Europe, as the High Representative of the Union usually says, she said it in person, she, Calla Calas, eh she said it on May 19 in the plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
She said at the end of her speech, and then in fact said nothing more, that after 10 years of implementation with very few results, what we consider, as we have always said, a failed implementation, and this is something we have conveyed in our high-level meetings in the European Union, it is 10 years of failed implementation without any results. Calla Calas said the agreement was going to be reviewed and this is a big step. It is a great step because it is a change, the starting point for a change in the European Union's foreign policy towards Cuba. This is a completely different position from what we had been experiencing in recent years, in which the European Union resisted talking about any kind of review of the agreement, and I always defended the agreement. Citizenship and Freedom's position is the suspension of the agreement, and we conveyed this in all our meetings, but at least a review is a step further and a step that also corners the dictatorship even more, and that was achieved yesterday. We did indeed say it a month ago; we were in Brussels the week of April 12th to April 19th for high-level meetings. Uh, among them the special representative for human rights, Caxia or Longren, a colleague of Calla Calas. And in those different meetings that we also had with the delegations of the member states, we were informed that an initial process of talks had begun that already included the Cuban State for a potential meeting of the agreement. There had been no official publication on the matter, but it was information that was known among certain sectors of the European institutions and that they passed on to us. We communicated it as well, we were also told that... Well, we are experiencing some connection problems with Carolina.
Uh, I don't know if we have her back, uh, very good. It seems we have problems with Carolina Barrero. The truth is, yes, we have a problem with Carolina Barrero. We've lost the connection. I'm really interested in that point, but I think we had a very good interview this morning. We've been talking here about the indictment of RaĂșl Castro, the situation with Europe and the Cuban regime. And I ask that we pause because I come with all the reactions because yesterday was a historic day. Castroism, my friends, is bewildered, eh, it is waking up from this long lethargy of impunity. Hey, RaĂșl Castro indicted and Cubans celebrating. I'll be right back.
[music] Alright, folks. Official response from the Cuban regime to yesterday's indictment of dictator RaĂșl Castro. I just have to tell you that a demonstration has been called at the US embassy in BanĂ, at the anti-imperialist platform. I've lost count of the number of pro-government demonstrations that have taken place there, but this one, called again for the 22nd of this month, has a particularity.
Castroism has its top leader charged with murder. Let's talk about the repercussions. Look here, I'm going to introduce them to you. Look here.
Communists. Mass organizations, student groups, and youth movements are calling on the people of the capital to gather at the historic anti-imperialist JosĂ© MartĂn Tribune this Friday, May 22, at 7:30 a.m. to condemn the despicable and infamous act of the United States Department of Justice against Army General RaĂșl Castro Rus, leader of the Cuban Revolution, and to support the declaration of the revolutionary government. On the day commemorating the 95th birthday of our army general, the Cuban people reaffirm that neither threats, nor blockade, nor energy embargo, nor false accusations will be able to break the will of an entire people in defense of their revolution. See you at the anti-imperialist rally this Friday.
See you at the anti-imperialist rally, they said from the official accounts, from the official press, gentlemen, just another demonstration. Uh, as I was saying, I've lost count. Manifestations of rachitic weakness upon sunrise around 7 a.m. These people gather there in groups of two or three. Everything ended at 8. Pumpkin, pumpkin, everyone to their own house, but RaĂșl Castro will remain charged. And this is just one of the reactions because yesterday the Castro regime also urgently issued a breaking news statement condemning this accusation and also stating that RaĂșl Castro was not responsible for anything at all, that this had been an illegal incursion by a narco-terrorist group. They were saying this about Brothers to the Rescue, claiming he was a narco-terrorist. Look here. And I come with this information because the spokesman for Castroism, Humberto LĂłpez, was seen like this on television. I'm only going to post a fragment because there's no way I'm going to post the whole thing. But look at the statement from the revolutionary government.
Cuba condemns the despicable accusation against the leader of the revolution.
The revolutionary government condemns in the strongest terms the despicable accusation by the United States Department of Justice announced on May 20 and proclaimed for several weeks against Army General RaĂșl Castro Rus.
Very well, I'm puzzled and would love to read your comments. I'll be reading it carefully, so leave me a comment about what you think of this accusation, but I'm going to share more reactions because one of the first to react was DĂaz Canel. DĂaz Canel tweeted that RaĂșl Castro also bore no responsibility, demonstrating loyalty to the Cuban dictator, but he also uploaded a video from the presidential account that truly reveals the mood within the Castro regime. I'm going to present this to you and I'd love to read your opinions. Look, he was a teacher, a boss who inspires commitment and whose steps one tries to follow every day, but he was also a dear friend.
And I feel it [music] like a father.
Fidel is Fidel and RaĂșl is RaĂșl.
RaĂșl is RaĂșl and RaĂșl is under investigation. DĂaz- Canel, you can cry, you can throw a tantrum, you can go to the US embassy, ââyou can send as many diplomatic notes as you have, but RaĂșl Castro is a criminal and that's how he's being treated by the US justice system, and sooner or later the same fate will come to you, because these people, my friends, can't sleep peacefully from now on. I read your comments.
Now I'll read your comments. They say around here, eh, dog, [laughs] this one needs to be given a cookie even for pleasure, they tell me around here. JC says, but catching the criminal, eh, from Michel Paderni, Umbrete is the most disgusting Cuban that exists, they bring him out from time to time, every time they have to play a sad role as a propagandist, they bring out Humberto López. Now he's also releasing one called Legañoa, we've brought him into this space, I think he's the director of Prensa Latina. If not, if not, I know badly, says Iliana, yesterday many memories and moments came to my mind. It was a historic day, but there is nothing, friends, nothing that makes me happier than knowing that these people are sleeping badly or not getting a wink of sleep, knowing that justice may come knocking at their door, feeling vulnerable because they have always felt above good and evil. They believed that 67 years of crimes would have no consequences. 60 years old. 67 years of terror reigning within Cuban society, fracturing a nation. How many have died in the Florida Straits?
How many have died in the jungles of Central America or in the Darien jungle trying to reach freedom?
How many have been shot? How many have been exiled, banished from their own land by these criminals whom justice is now slowly revealing for what they are? criminals. Yesterday the deputy foreign minister spoke about this, and in a rather threatening manner. Well, it's his style, just like DĂaz Canel's and Bruno RodrĂguez's. FernĂĄndez Decio said at the round table that no one should dare, FernĂĄndez de Cocio said, to enter Cuba and do anything to RaĂșl Castro and the other defendants, because not only is RaĂșl Castro the defendant, but also other military personnel. He says that no one should dare because they will encounter the fierce resistance of our people.
Please, nobody likes you.
I have reports of people applauding inside Cuba in areas of Havana when the indictment was read by the Attorney General of the United States. The feeling of weariness, the feeling of indignation against you is deeply rooted within Cuban society, and we all know that.
Trust yourselves. Look at FernĂĄndez de Cocio's threats and then we'll analyze how the United States responds to all this. I have the video here, please allow me a second to find it. I repeat, FernĂĄndez de Cocio stated at the round table that if anyone entered Cuba to do any harm, he was directly referring to RaĂșl Castro or any of these defendants, they would encounter the fierce resistance of our people. He also said it at a round table where threats were made, where a few outrageous things were said. Once again, the regime denies that these unarmed civilian aircraft were shot down in international waters. They say this is false. They revel in lies and not only that, but they also dare to challenge the United States in this way. Here it is.
General de Jes was not an act of justice, it was an act of injustice against a group of Cuban comrades starting with the army general who were fulfilling their duty. It is also important to take into account, and Yiniel is possibly referring to this.
This accusation carries an additional threat, given the United States' well-known dark practice of using accusations like this to justify military action against sovereign states.
Their protection is not justice, their protection is the use of the enormous military power that the United States government has. And it must be said and made clear that any attempt to use this excuse for action against these comrades within Cuba will be met with fierce resistance from the Cuban people. That's all I can say about these accusations. "They will encounter fierce resistance from the Cuban people if anyone decides to enter Cuba and harm RaĂșl Castro," FernĂĄndez de Coso said. I would love for this to happen. I don't know if they watch this program, I don't know if anyone sends them the video, I don't think so, but oh well, I don't care either. I'm going to daydream here. I would love for this excerpt to be seen by the State Department and reach those who make decisions in the United States, because nothing would make me happier; it would be hypocritical of me not to tell them. Nothing would make me happier than to see RaĂșl Castro in handcuffs before the United States justice system, being held accountable for all the crimes they have committed. Nothing would make me happier than to see these people unable to sleep a wink and to watch them eat their words, because, my friends, there will be no resistance in Cuba.
None. I only feel sorry for the young people in military service; I can't get them out of my head day after day, especially under these circumstances, because I also know that they are being used as cannon fodder. I know. We're going to take a short break. I read your comments first because I have much more to say. I am fully aware of the repercussions this is having within the United States government and American society itself. Claria says over here, she starts crying now [laughs] she says now. Look, we're all waiting to see that. Yamila says, because Judi says so, who are going to defend the murderous narco-dictator?
Cocio's children who live in Miami. Absolutely, Jew. But then they tell you, "No, we're going to defend with fierce resistance."
What will the Cuban people defend? It's something that makes me wonder, what is left for the people to defend? the privileges of this olive-green caste that has hijacked the nation, that Diaz Canel's stepson is studying at a private university that I don't know how he pays for here in Madrid because it costs a lot. Or that the children of generals and ministers stroll around liberal democracies shopping or on vacation.
Why will the Cuban population resist and why will they fight so fiercely?
For 2 pounds of rice, for a carton of eggs at 1500 pesos, 3000 pesos for a bottle of oil at 1500. Why? For the separated families, for those who die and can never hug again.
For the grandmothers who die without being able to hug their grandchildren and the parents who suffer as they watch the years go by and grow old far from their children. Do you believe that the Cuban population is going to waste a single ounce of energy defending a regime that has us subjugated? Of course not. Of course not. It's a big lie. There will be no such resistance. I wouldn't even dare to say that they currently have the, I don't know, full approval of some junior officers in the Ministry of the Armed Forces who are also really struggling. Well, I doubt it. Let's take a short break and I'll be back with everything that's happening inside and the repercussions within American society.

Friends, I cannot discuss the reactions within American society without mentioning what the White House published. A photo that sums up, I think, everything related to the foreign policy of the current administration in recent months. It's also a photo that I know must have ruffled a lot of feathers in the Central Committee because it's a photo that fills me with profound happiness.
Well, like everything that happened yesterday, look, the White House published this image. This was taken, this was taken from the official White House account. Look at them, neutralized. And above, a photo of Donald Trump, neutralized. And below it said none other than Maduro, who is under arrest, Khamenei, who is eliminated, another terrorist eliminated, and a photo of the Cuban dictator that says "charged," uh, and from charged, arrested, I think it goes very little, unless they set their minds to it. But that's how the White House was publishing it. The White House was also retweeting and giving, that is, views to everything that happened yesterday with the indictment of the dictator.
We have statements from Donald Trump.
Donald Trump said yesterday that the Cuban population of Miami, and certainly beyond Miami, appreciates what the U.S. Attorney General was doing, and he added, "It's a nation that's failing, you see? It's falling apart, but we also want to help the families, the people." Trump ruled out, at least for now, an immediate escalation against the regime after the indictment. "We're not going to escalate. No," Trump said, "there won't be an escalation. I don't think it's necessary.
Look, the place is falling apart. It's a disaster," Trump said. While he was deploying to the Caribbean Sea on aircraft carriers, drone flights continued, and the dictator was being indicted. That's why this needs to be seen in context, right? Not just with Trump's statements. We have to see the background of the story. I'm going to show you the footage of what Trump was saying yesterday to Fox News cameras. Look.
Looking at a sort of lost control of Cubans. I think the Cuban population of Miami, and certainly beyond Miami, people that came there that were decimated as families were ruined to appreciate what the attorney general did today and just doing now. It's just watching it. So, uh we have Cuba on our mind very important. been a lot of problem for a lot of years and uh this was a big I think it was a very big moment for people that not only Cuban Americans but uh people that came from Cuba that want to go back to Cuba, keep people that want to see their family in Cuba. I think this is a very big day, very important day. They supported me to the degree. They supported me at levels that nobody's ever seen before. And so I think it's a very important moment.
What's coming next for Cuba?
But we're going to see it's a failing nation. You see that it is falling apart.
They have no oil. They have no It's a failing nation. So, I just can't tell you that. But, uh, we're there to help.
We're there to help the families, the people. And again, a lot of those people are related to me in the sense that I've had such A great relationship with Cuban Americans. They supported me at a 94% level. That's a pretty good level.
Very good, those were the words of Donald Trump. Remember when he was asked what's next for Cuba?
Donald Trump ruled out an escalation at that time, but ladies and gentlemen, what we are seeing is quite the opposite. That's why we have to analyze these things in context. Aircraft carriers in the Caribbean, drones, surveillance flights, reports that the Pentagon is already evaluating how the regime would respond to a possible military action inside Cuba. RaĂșl Castro indicted.
Sanctions against high-ranking officials. We are seeing an escalation, yes, of pressure without equal over these last few years against the Cuban dictatorship. And I want to highlight, yesterday there was a presidential announcement by Donald Trump that we didn't have time to cover, very important and also very forceful against Castroism. Look, I'm going to read it to you briefly, Donald Trump said, "We will not rest until the people of Cuba regain the freedom that "Their ancestors fought so bravely to establish a republic more than 100 years ago." I said this in this rather lengthy memo I mentioned; it's very harsh on the Cuban regime and beyond, and I'm going to say it publicly here, regardless of whether you like Trump or his methods, regardless of where you stand on the political spectrum. I believe that yesterday, we Cubans can only feel gratitude towards those who are going to bring RaĂșl Castro to trial, or who have the idea of ââbringing him to trial, for the crimes of Brothers to the Rescue. It's a debt to the Cuban community of Florida, an open wound like so many others throughout these 67 years. Now I want to read your comments, and I ask you not to go away because we have much more today. We have a very good program today. Claria says here, "Sad, living on handouts." We have some comments, which means we're doing well. Generally, when you see people talking about us, when you see there's a buzz, we're doing something right. It's worse when they do n't talk, Iliana says here.
Jorge, uh, it's easier for them than for Venezuela because new parties will appear. Of course, uh, sadder ones. Here it says, I'm still here, uh, Tron, the communists have to be removed by force, they tell me here. Uh, where are Ramiro Valdés and Esteban Lazo? they ask me here. Well, Ramiro Valdés hasn't been seen since October, I really don't know, I can't tell you where he is, but he can't be doing very well because he's not in the public eye. Uh, they say here too, uh, he has to be removed by force. Where is Ramiro? Uh, I'm having a whole debate in the chat right now with Claria. I already blocked her. Uh, Jorge says, "Say the magic words, come find me," he says. "Greetings to Orlando from Atlanta, Georgia," he says, "Good program with a lot of information."
Thank you very much, uh, thank you very much. Let's take a break because while all this is happening, things are happening inside Cuba. The The electricity generation deficit is over 1900, almost 2000. Do you realize, friends, how we've begun to normalize a 2000 MW generation deficit? This is more than 65% of Cuba without electricity. First, 1800 seemed extremely high, then 1600, 1500, and now 2000 is the new normal. The new normal for a country where there is no electricity in the 21st century, nor food, much less medicine.
Let's talk about this because the solution seems to be increasing surveillance of the Cuban people. Yesterday, DĂaz-Canel met with Gerardo HernĂĄndez, the president-director, or whatever they want to call him, of the largest surveillance organization the Castro regime has in Cuba, called the CDRs, and invited them to increase, in other words, and to put it simply, the amount of snitching in the neighborhoods. Let's take a break and talk about this in a moment.
[music] Very well, the CDRs are going to increase surveillance of Cubans. Or at least that's what they 've proposed. Diaz-Canel to Gerardo Hernandez. The infamous Gerardo Hernandez. You remember that Gerardo Hernandez only had one mission: to be a spy, and he failed. He's a failed spy. Uh, uh, as I was saying, well, the CDRs are the soul of the revolution. Of course, they watch you in the neighborhood, and that surveillance has to be increased considering the current circumstances. I'm going to show you this short video because it demonstrates very well how things are moving within the regime. There's fear, there's a fear of social pressure, especially of protests within Cuba. Look, the revolution has economic, political, and social programs that are developed in the community. The defense of the homeland continues to be, and at this moment is gaining importance, one of our founding missions with relevance and current relevance.
During the meeting, both Gerardo Hernandez Nordelo and other members of the National Directorate of the CDRs referred to the positive results already being shown in the communities by the nascent community youth network, an initiative of the UJC that seeks, with the participation of young people, to solve social and economic problems accumulated over time. Years in the neighborhoods. Together with the local authorities of People's Power and the organizations of the combatants themselves, we CRs can also benefit a lot.
While we can contribute a lot to the initiative, we can also benefit if the young people, the combatants, and the revolutionaries in general... Wow, there it is. They were calling me Cornelius here in the chat, I couldn't stop laughing. No, it's tremendous.
DĂaz-Canel says here, it's the moment the country is experiencing, a moment of threat. The regime also presented a strategy entitled "From the Neighborhood with Fidel." Listen to this.
Headed by Gerardo HernĂĄndez. From the Neighborhood with Fidel. Tremendous. Among the proposed actions areâlistenâit's not about getting Cuba out of the crisis, it's not about liberalizing the economy, it's not about allowing Cubans to freely start businesses, it's not about liberating and carrying out a process of democratization, no, no. The proposed actions are revolutionary vigilance detachments, confronting crime, drugs, and vandalism, as well as greater neighborhood participation in Economic and social tasks. DĂaz-Canel says that without the CDRs, this is nothing. And I remember now, I don't know what you all think, but when I left Cuba back in 2019, six years ago, it wasn't even working anymore. The CDRs were a remnant of Stalinist Cuba from the 1980s. Look, there were neighborhoods where they did exist, especially in the provinces, but in Havana, in Havana, they were completely residual. This was in 2019, a lot has changed since then, and I guarantee you that they're not even residual anymore. Only the troublemakers, only the snitches, only the marked ones, only the MININ officers and these people have a fully established CDR with the entire hierarchy in their neighborhood. In any case, things have to be called by their name. When the history of Cuba is told, when it's explained how Castroism was able to infiltrate Cuban society and control every single one of Regarding aspects of national life, we have to talk about the CDRs and the role of this criminal organization in surveillance, in the snitching of Cubans, of Cubans themselves.
Imagine having a neighbor watching you. Uh, imagine having a guy in the neighborhood who's going to be consulted about whether you're a good neighbor or not before being given a job. No, it doesn't matter if you're an excellent professional, no, if the CDR president doesn't like you, forget it. Uh, uh, that's how life is in Cuba.
They even say around here about the dirty-footed members of the CDRs. This is their position, like Coco. Without a doubt. [laughs] He says, "Where 's the FMC?" That this woman supposedly has to defend contact and defend contacts against the femicides that are happening in Cuba, and especially in the province where she was born." Katia, from the FMC. Uh, there's a report, I didn't bring it because the program would have been too long, but the FMC wants this now for defending RaĂșl Castro. Imagine a macho RaĂșl Castro, right? They don't care about that, do they? Uh, defending RaĂșl Castro, she says no, yes, that RaĂșl is an exceptional leader, that this is a great injustice. There's the president of the FMC, which is another great mockery, because these organizations are satellites of the Communist Party. This is the Communist Party in disguise, one for women, another for neighbors, and so on. We all know how it works. She says, "I don't know how this Tarru dares, being also responsible for shooting down the planes."
Undoubtedly, uh, undoubtedly. She says Tarrut has the GPT chat vomiting with the burned-out speeches of a An organization that's neither here nor there. Increasingly obsolete, a symbol of the Cuba of the past, the Cuba that has changed. Because look, there are two things here. The regime hasn't changed, but Cuba has. The regime is stuck in the 80s. But who's going to talk about the CDR in Cuba now? About Caldosa. That's all in the past, right? They're residual, completely residual. It says here, "Anyone who lends themselves to being a vigilante these days is like that." Hey, thank you so much, Elizabeth, for this contribution to the journalism we do from here. I really appreciate it, it's very valuable to us. Jorge says, "Good morning and blessings, Jorge from Miami." Greetings, greetings to you all. "The CDRs, that doesn't exist anymore." Juan says.
Cubans watching, let's do a feedback exercise here. If you're inside Cuba, in any province, tell me in the messages, tell me if the CDRs are working. Tell me if they really have the same power they had 10 or 20 years ago.
I'm interested in reading this.
However, I want to reflect on something with you. I think I'm going to bring it up here. I thought about it, I thought about whether to bring it up or not. I saw it this morning. I saw it this morning. I felt very embarrassed for them, you know? With the minor I'm going to show you in the photo. Not with the child.
I feel sorry for the child, but for his parents, because here we are all adults. And when you reach adulthood and you have a child, you have responsibility for that child. And from here, the message for everyone watching from inside Cuba is: don't lend your children for political propaganda. Don't do it, don't. Do it. Because a child of six, seven, eight, or nine years old, a minor, does n't have political awareness, they repeat what they're told, and they're easily manipulated.
Unfortunately, that's the way it is. And we see children at events, and we see children reciting communist slogans or partisan slogans. Look, you know what? I don't care if they're communists or not. They could be more liberal than anyone tomorrow.
Children are not, they cannot be used for political purposes. Period.
End of story. I don't care if you're left-wing, right-wing, from above or below. Don't use children. Don't use children.
I want to show you a video I found. This is Camawey. Camawey. I saw it this morning. It was posted by a primary school in Camawey. Look.
From Camawey, land of legends and indomitable people, I raise my voice like just another pioneer. I don't bring a speech, I bring the truth that hurts every day. The blockade, the blockade fixes our Dreams, our hospitals, the schools where we were educated. It's not just a piece of paper; it's the medicine that doesn't arrive, the book that's delayed, the respite we need. But a Camagano doesn't give up, and a Pioneer even less so.
I reject this inhumane blockade because we are not against any flights; we are in favor of life. I reject the blockade because here in this land of sun and courage, we want to live without chains. Let my voice be heard, let our land be heard. Enough of this oppression.
We want to breathe in peace. The truth is, well, I'm going to remove this because I'm not going to expose it anymore, but the truth is, I feel outraged by the role of the parents who let their children be taken for this, especially because that child at that age doesn't even know what the blockade they talk so much about is, doesn't know why it isn't a blockade, does n't know the rules of the embargo, doesn't know the trade figures between the United States and Cuba, doesn't know what communism is, doesn't know who Ernesto Guevara was, doesn't know the damage that has been done to the people. Cuban or no harm. Of course, I'm putting it openly. He doesn't have the tools to discern if what he 's saying is right. He's been told to say it. And those people who told him to say it are ultimately responsible for involving minors in this. And now, in two days, there's going to be what they call an open forum in front of the United States embassy in Cuba, and we're going to see Cuban children there wearing bandanas, the kind who go to school, taken from the schools and put there to do political propaganda, and the parents still allow it. Don't lend your minor children to be manipulated by anyone, least of all by a totalitarian regime. Your child doesn't know anything about life yet. Your child doesn't have the tools to talk about politics; they simply don't know. Don't lend them. It really bothers and outrages me that they use minors like this. They've been manipulated. What does a child know? I was just thinking, we've all been there, haven't we? We all go through that age.
Primary school. Pioneers for Communism, we will be like Che. How old were we all when we shouted like parrots, and then, looking back, you say, well, at the time we normalized it because you say, well, that's just how it is. But then, when you grow up, you realize the level of influence, the manipulation you were subjected to, the political violence.
What does a child need to know about communism? Do you think a 6- year-old knows what communism is to say that because of communism they will be like Che? Do you think that at 6 years old you know who Che was?
No, they don't. They don't know, they can't know. So, listen up, parents, in two days there's an anti-imperialist rally, that's what they call it, another pro-government demonstration full of children. Don't lend your children to that.
Educate your children. Give them tools.
Educate them, but educate them in pluralism. Give them tools so that when the child grows up they will know To discern what is right and what is wrong. I'm not saying that children have to think like we do here on this program, but at least don't let them be manipulated at six years old. Six, seven, whatever age, just don't do it.
And before we close, I want to make a denunciation. I want to show you a video. I saw this video this morning and I couldn't believe it. Well, in the end, I don't expect much from the Latin American left anymore.
Every day I feel more and more sorry for them, you know? Because the truth is, if they think they can govern countries and they behave like this, these are leftists who are sectors of the international left manipulated by the Castro regime. I have a video for you. This happened yesterday in Mexico. How sad, isn't it? What's happening in Mexico. It happened in Mexico that a documentary about Luis Manuel Otero AlcĂĄntara, the political prisoner and dissident artist, was presented yesterday. They went to present it there in Mexico, right? In a country Democratic, right? Gentlemen, a mob, a communist mob, went to boycott the presentation of Luis Manuel Otero AlcĂĄntara's documentary. But not only that, this communist mob, sent from the Castro embassy, ââwas shouting, "Hey, worms, get out, worms!" "Long live RaĂșl Castro!" "Long live DĂaz-Canel!" Mexicans shouting "Long live DĂaz- Canel!" from Mexico while eating tortillas.
Hey, go to Cuba and shout "Long live DĂaz- Canel!" there, starving, eating stale bread from the bodega. Go there, right? It's very easy from Mexico.
Look at the images because we're going to be outraged together here, and then we're going to talk about the sad role of the international left, whitewashing the crimes of Castroism once again. Look.
No, he's not leaving. You're not leaving. You're leaving, comrades. We're going to make a statement from this side. We didn't come here to provoke.
Let's go from this side, comrade.
Comrade.
Let's go, Miguel. Let's go from this side. We did n't come here for that. We came to Denouncing those damn worms.
Damned worm.
Damned worm.
This brainless idiot is shouting, isn't he? A communist, huh?
Obviously, they've filled his head with Siercol from the Castro embassy.
Seriously, if someone yelled that at you in Cuba, it's already outrageous, but for a Mexican to yell it at you in Mexico is even worse. I'm reminding everyone that when everything happened in Venezuela and Maduro was captured, a Spanish journalist wrote a column in a major media outlet calling Venezuelans worms. The word "worm" has a symbolic weight. "Worm" was the term Fidel Castro used to dehumanize us Cubans, and to hear it from these foreigners who have never lived under a totalitarian dictatorship, who don't know what it means, is truly outrageous. We're paid by imperialism; we didn't come to attack, but if that's what they want, get out. We're not going to damage this woman's place. Let's go outside. Let's go out here.
Damned. Worms.
They follow his name. It's easy to defend the confinement while living here.
Long live Gel Castro.
Long live. Long live RaĂșl. [ovation] Long live. Long live DĂaz-Canel. Long live.
Down with the worms. Yes to Cuba. Yes to Cuba. Christ Cuba, follow Christ, Cuba follow Christ, Cuba follow Christ.
Friends, at the University Cultural Center, Mexican Communists are boycotting the documentary by Luis Manuel Otero AlcĂĄntara. We are connected with the Cuban filmmaker Ernesto Fundora HernĂĄndez. You saw the images perfectly, and I think there's little doubt left about where these people come from, who trains them, who sends them to do these things. The Castroist embassies, friends, have become nests of destabilization in the region.
None of this is the result of improvisation. Suddenly these Mexicans said, "Oh, there's a documentary by Luis Manuel Otero AlcĂĄntara, let's go there and boycott it." No, no, no, that's false.
That's absolutely false. This was sent directly by the embassy Castroism has functioned as repressive tentacles of Castroism in Latin America and a little beyond. I say this because I experienced it firsthand, because I've been to Bolivia and I know how things work there, because I was in Uruguay, where Uruguayan communists, called by phone from the Castro embassy, ââwere organizing counter-marches to confront the free Cubans in Uruguay who were going to protest in front of the communist embassy. Where do you think the term "worms" comes from, and why all these brainless people are shouting there? From the embassy, ââright, from the embassy. And who's at the Castro embassy in Mexico today? Joana Tablada and her husband. You know who, of course, you must know who Joana Tablada is, right, so you understand how this works. This is what Castroism exports to the region: destabilization, people like this brainless, socially maladjusted person, people who don't believe in democracy, not just don't believe in democracy, and who do this kind of thing. They export acts of repudiation. 67 years later, you don't care, they don't export food, there's no sugar industry left, there's nothing, they export these people. Truly, all solidarity with the Cubans there, but I would love it if those on the left, or if anyone considers themselves left-wing, that's fine, feel however you want, but keep in mind that this comes from this communist paradise that some of you sell you and that you repeat like it's the gold in Cuba. This is what happens in Cuba every day. Every day I read your comments. You say those are the same ones who cross the border to come to the United States. You say, by the way, from Uruguay. That's how I see it. No, totally, Katia, totally. I was there, nobody told me about it. I was in front of the Castro regime's embassy in Uruguay, there with the free Cubans protesting, and there weren't any Cubans in front of them. There was a small group of Uruguayan communists defending... Castroism. Uh, uh, do you think they got there of their own free will?
We were passing by here, and suddenly there was a demonstration. No, no, no. The embassy... uh, it happens here in Spain, it happens everywhere. It happens in Chile, it happens in Argentina; they're like branches of Castroism, little branches of Castroism around the world, creating destabilization, hotbeds of violence against free Cubans themselves in each of those countries. It says here, "Those people were paid to go and shout there." Maria, I would tell you that even if they were paid, they would have a real reason, but many of these people are enthusiastic, foolish, useful, uh, I don't know, deluded, no, no, no, no, stupid, people, people who have no brains, who dedicate themselves to this even if they weren't paid.
If they were paid, they could, I don't know, it wouldn't justify it with that. But they are people who don't need to be paid because they are people who, at some point in their lives, believe that what they are doing... That's fine. It does n't absolve them of responsibility for what they do, but they're the kind of brainy people who end up being bad people because, folks, everything's on the internet.
What's happening in Cuba, what Cubans are going through, is on the internet. How can you, a Mexican, shout "Long live DĂaz- Canel!" while living in Mexico, eating very well, huh? And enjoying the rights that Mexican democracyâ whether you call it flawed or imperfect, but a democracy nonethelessâgrants you, allowing you to go and boycott an event of this nature? Go to Cuba, my friend, take everything, go to Cuba, don't take tortillas or anything else in your bag so you can go there and eat flour bread, bread, the bread they sell at the bodega, huh, the kind that's hard as a rock, eat ground meat of whatever kind, and be able to relax peacefully at home, because you can't complain about not having electricity or internet. Let's see what all these Mexicans do after that.
Really, Outrageous. Let's take a short break and I'll be right back.
[sigh][music] Friends, we're almost at the end of our program. I didn't want to finish without talking a little about everything that's happened, because we've truly had an intense week. One day this weekâit feels like one day this year, but it's a week from last year. Yesterday, RaĂșl Castro, the Cuban dictator, the Castro criminal, was indicted for conspiracy to murder U.S. citizens. Four deaths. Among the seven charges, RaĂșl Castro could be sentenced to death or life imprisonment. The old dictator, 94 years old, almost 95, I imagine he hopes his life ends soon, that is, that death comes more quickly. That way he won't have to face U.S. justice. Anyway, I have to tell you, the feeling I have is a feeling of happiness.
It's a feeling that these people are finally sleeping, they're not getting a wink of sleep, they're worried, they know it could be their turn. Justice is knocking at their door at any moment. They have a very fresh memory of NicolĂĄs Maduro. These people who have felt untouchable their entire lives, who have done as they pleased, who believe Cuba is their property, who haven't hesitated to execute, exile, or imprison Cubans. Suddenly, suddenly, neither he, nor his children, nor his grandchildren will have peace. I don't know if they're sleeping in a bunker, I don't know if they've reinforced the security of their residence, I have no idea, but what I am sure of is that they'll never sleep peacefully again from today onward, with the memory of NicolĂĄs Maduro so close. While this is happening, from the United States, an aircraft carrier is approaching the Caribbean. It's already in the Caribbean, also publicized by the United States embassy. An aircraft carrier in the Caribbean.
Surveillance drone flights are circling and continuing around the coasts of Cuba, and as if that weren't enough, RaĂșl Castro is being accused of murder. The regime responds as it can do little else, with an anti-imperialist platform in front of the The United States embassy next Saturday at 7:30 in the morning. One more. I've lost count of the meager pro-government marches and activities since Maduro was captured on January 3rd. One more, a little march at 7:30 in the morning, 8:30, everyone go home. A march of organizations, ministries, and public officials because the real Cuban people are in line to buy food or are too fed up with these people to go and defend the privileges of an olive-green caste. I'll read your comments at the end, but as I always say, if you've made it this far in the program, if you like how we bring you the information, it helps us a lot if you give us a like right now.
We've had a great program, more than 10,000 people connected on YouTube alone at some point during the broadcast. On X we have 423, so there are more than 10,000 connected, or 1,700 overall, a very good audience. So if you like what you see, please give me a like, and it will help this video get published much more on YouTube. I also want to tell you that if you're watching from other social media platforms, please follow me on my YouTube channel, where we already have a strong community. If you'd like to help us further, you can become a member of this channel, which will allow us to improve the conditions under which we bring you these programs.
If you're in Cuba or want to stay informed minute by minute about what's happening, the links to all my social media accounts are in the descriptions of these videos. We have a presence on Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTokâwe bring you the latest news firsthand on all of them. I also want to mention that for those with limited internet access, we have channels on WhatsApp and Telegram that condense the information a bit, so you don't use up as much data. I wanted to thank all of you. It's been an intense few days. Yesterday we did two programs, then we had to keep working because the information was circulating, and today's program was also very good. I'm reading your comments. It says... Here, "An anti-communist hug from the city of the sun."
Excellent. Thank you so much, Yamila, uh, "Thanks for being here."
Luis Estrella says, "Jorge, in Cuba there's plenty of time, there's no bread in the bodegas."
Well, these people can't even eat bread. [laughs] Thanks for the information, Changosita says here, Michel tells me, "Hugs, Mac, excellent program."
Thank you so much, uh, Michel says, "It's as Mac says, but the world will be a mass of people there." "Thanks, Mac, for your work." Excellent. Thank you very much.
It says to you, Diego, "The communists will do it at sea." The system is outdated and failed, as well as criminal and shameless. That's how it is. A container of Pampers arrives in Cuba for the Central Committee, [laughs] says Patricio. Uh, no, no, definitely, uh, definitely. Mimi Mac says, "Not all Mexicans are communists nor do we agree with that." Don't generalize. There are many Mexicans like me who support the Cuban people." No, Mini, excuse me, I never meant all Mexicans. No, not at all. Absolute respect to the people of Mexico, the people of Mexico, with whom we share historical ties, not just from now, but from centuries ago. So, please don't misunderstand me, Mexicans who might be watching. But those who went to boycott, those who called my compatriots worms, those are the ones being manipulated, and those are the bad people, but the rest aren't. So don't feel targeted. Enrique says around here, "Either they're bought off or they're incredibly ignorant." I think the latter, they're useless, this guy pays their salary. He says, "Look, Europe is packed." "Embassies are a joke, that's how it is, they're nests of destabilization," someone says here. "I do n't know what part of Mexico you came from, but your comment isn't true, and don't give us any more of a bad name." I repeat again, this is n't directed at all Mexicans, so don't feel targeted. I 'm sure those who watch this program aren't going to boycott an event with Cubans by yelling, yelling "worms" at us.
So it's not about you. Someone here says, "Tablada kept saying there weren't any Cubans defending Maduro, and look, look, look where they are."
Enrique says, "Do you have the green light from the government?" They have me too, that's true, they say here, they choose the dumbest ones for that.
