WATCH: Cuban-American Democrat Torches ‘Progressive Media And Politicians’ For Ignoring True Cause Of Cuba Protests

A Cuban-American Democrat slammed the mainstream media for ignoring the underlying cause of widespread protests in Cuba.

Cuba is presently witnessing the largest protest movement against its communist regime in decades. When the protests began on July 11, many media outlets pointed toward the island’s rising COVID-19 case count and the lack of vaccines. Meanwhile, Democratic politicians — such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) — emphasized the notion that the American embargo drives the nation’s hardships.
