ffs & smh

As the video report states, Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz was welcome because she espouses the same inhumane policy of sanctioning Cuba as does rightwingnut Salazar.

Congresswoman Barbara Lee supports the rational concept of negotiations and normalization with our Cuban neighbors - who have done nothing to harm the USA. After all, the US is close allies with other nations run by butchers and dictators, so, even if the claim of a Cuban dictatorship were to be true, it's a hypocritical policy.
