🇺🇸🕊🇨🇺 — In one of the least intelligent moves, the Outgoing Biden Administration removed the Communist Regime in Cuba from list of State Sponsors of Terrorism

🇺🇸🏴‍☠️❌🇨🇺 — 🏴‍☠️ CEO of Blackwater Worldwide/Constellis PMC, Erik Prince calls out the final act by Biden Administration regarding the Cuban Regime

Biden removing Cuba from Terror list is as stupid as the Biden removing the Houthis from terror list who now have shut off the Red Sea for maritime navigation for over a year.

The Biden team is so consistently wrong they cannot be this stupid, they must be trying to ruin our Republic. Cuba is the nexus of socialist rot throughout Latin America.

🇺🇦😬🤝🇷🇺 — 🇺🇸 The Hill | Ukraine not yet in strong position for peace talks: NATO chief | January 13, 2025:

"NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said Monday that Ukraine was not yet in a strong position to begin peace talks with Russia ahead of President-elect Trump taking office next week with a pledge to end the war.

Rutte told the European Parliament’s foreign affairs and defense committees the hope was to ensure Ukraine has adequate security guarantees so that Russia could not attack again, but he expressed doubt that the current stage of the war afforded the opportunity for such a deal.

“At this moment, clearly, Ukraine is not there,” he said. “Because they cannot, at this moment, negotiate from a position of strength. And we have to do more to make sure, by changing the trajectory of the conflict, that they can get to the position of strength.”
