Duration - 2:54 [a video about Cuba from the news collective Belly Of The Beast]

U.S. lawmakers Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Rep. Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) traveled to Cuba to see the impact of sanctions firsthand. After visiting hospitals, Rep. Jayapal describes what she saw: premature babies struggling in incubators, mothers without food, and hospitals facing power outages. She says U.S. policy causing scarcities in Cuba is “an act of war.”

As she said correctly, most of the cubans that are in the U.S. and hate the revolution haven't ever set foot in Cuba either, but they're too busy licking Trump's and America's feet to actually talk to the people there.

I guess AOC was too busy kissing Jeffries' ass to join.
