Cuba - The new WMD and pretense for attacking Cuba is drones

https://www.axios.com/2026/05/17/us-military-drones-cuba

The minute the Iran debacle is over you can expect an attack on Cuba. It will have to happen before November so that Trump can secure the Cuban refugee vote for the midterms.

He attacked Iran as a diversion from the Venezuela debacle. Nothing has changed in Venezuela since Trump kidnapped Maduro in January. The same ruling party (PSUV) remains in power, Maduro's Vice President Delcy Rodríguez is in charge, the country's economic and social problems persist, and "taking" their oil hasn't made us "rich."

Before going after Russia... Trump is dumb enough to start another war while in a war.

but what about Jewish Space lasers? What about hunter Biden profiting from selling s painting? Those still supporting Trump / MAGA are lost forever. They make a good case for FEMA camps.
