The Coast Guard said the migrants were apprehended in one of four interdictions of unstable vessels headed to the U.S.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, responding to the rising number of Cubans discovered in "dangerous and unforgiving" conditions at sea, last year drew a red line."

Any migrant intercepted at sea, regardless of their nationality, will not be permitted to enter the United States," he said in July 2021.

Traditional U.S. policy allowing Cubans who make it to dry land in the U.S. to apply for legal status was ended under President Donald Trump, but the government still processes applications for asylum by migrants who reach the border in Mexico.

1. Cuban-Americans will blame Democrats though....

even though Trump ended the migrant acceptance program. Republicans will be sure to blame Democrats, and Cuban-Americans listen to the republican lies. 🙄

5. but Cubans are the "good ones"!

because they're fleeing Comnizm and vote for Repukes.

But Venezuelans are bad because they're the Comnists.

See how that works?

6. Actually, the RW Cuban "exiles" have pretty much the same politics as the Venezuelans.

They have come here to "escape" socialism/communism/Marxism. Then: hate for Castro/Chavez. Now: hate for Canales/Maduro.

They are a united diaspora in their right wing politics in the USA. Anti democratic.

I live in S Florida and understand the dynamic regarding this.

7. I'm being facetious.

Hence the quotes around "good ones", deliberate misspellings, and contradictory assertions.

I should know better.

8. OK.I should know better.

Missed the quotes and the facetiousness.

Cheers.
