Surprise: MSNBC Host Flip-Flops On Cuban Sanctions Now That Biden Supports Them

As President Joe Biden announces new sanctions against Cuba for its crackdown on pro-democracy protesters, at least one MSNBC host seemingly changed her longstanding position to align with the administration.

While interviewing a Cuban human rights advocate, MSNBC host Joy Reid apparently reversed her long-held support for lifting U.S. sanctions against the Communist dictatorship. Reid once mocked the Clinton administration for hesitating to seize and deport six-year-old Elián González back to Cuba. But Reid now appears to support a boycott of the regime similar to the one the U.S. enacted against South Africa in the 1980s to oppose apartheid.
