“Ambassador Rocha,” as he preferred to be called, was well known among Miami’s elite for his aristocratic, almost regal, bearing befitting his Ivy League background. His post-government career included time as a special adviser to the commander of the U.S. Southern Command and more recently as a tough-talking Donald Trump supporter and Cuba hardliner, a persona friends and prosecutors say Rocha adopted to hide his true allegiances.
Give this man an Oscar.
I choose to believe this guy also did 8d chess shit to get Morales elected
Rocha’s off the cuff remark weeks before the 2002 Bolivian general election threatening to cut American aid to Bolivia over Evo Morales’ support for the coca growers movement has been credited with boosting Morales’ Movement for Socialism party in the 2002 Bolivian general election - after that Morales called Rocha his best “campaign manager”
Comrade Rocha is extremely based
to a real one

Thank you for your service o7
Is there any real point to adding “Communist” here? Cuba isn’t like China where Western media heads and political “thinkers” are kinda in this weird interstice where it’s both at the same kinda big bad red menace their boomer parents/grandparents were scared about and also a free market capitalist dictatorship to cope about its success. Cuba is widely considered a communist country already (since it’s a “failed state”).
Then again, this is AP Reuters so
But the abrupt deal drew criticism in the Cuban exile community, with some legal observers worrying it amounted to a slap on the wrist. “Any sentence that allows him to see the light of day again would not be justice,” said Carlos Trujillo, a Miami attorney who served as U.S. Ambassador to the Organization of American States during the Trump administration. “He’s a spy for a foreign adversary who put American lives at risk.”
Curious if this Gusano has anything to say about that one time US Intelligence considered staging a false-flag attack on American citizens whereas Cuba… hasn’t killed anyone on American soil. Or is this the Jordan/Israel situation where American lives are cheap as dirt so long as its the Empire and its allies who are taking them?
Meanwhile, the US literally had terrorist training camps for Gusanos.
Cuban intelligence shared their investigation into exile terrorists with the FBI after they accused Cuba of hostile espionage. The FBI took the investigation, turned around and arrested the undercover spies in the terrorist groups while none of the terrorists were punished.
Cuba is too trusting and kind for its own good.
I think that’s a consistent thing with people who have lived under socialism. They struggle to understand the mind of someone who chose to be a soldier for capitalism.
“He’s a spy for a foreign adversary who put American lives at risk.”
lmao gusanos are the most disgusting, full of shit fascists ever

They don’t think about this at all. You’re giving them too much credit. Communism = bad = enemy. It’s simply just that.
