Time and time again

 May 20 (Reuters) - The Trump administration was expected to announce criminal charges against former Cuban president Raul Castro as the United States steps up its pressure campaign against the Caribbean island's communist government.


The Raúl Castro Indictment

  • The Charges: The Trump administration indicted former Cuban President Raúl Castro (age 94) on charges of conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, murder, and destroying an aircraft.
  • The Incident: The indictment stems from Castro's alleged role in the 1996 shootdown of two civilian planes operated by the group Brothers to the Rescue, which killed four people, including three Americans.
















Donald Trump has been fuming,lately, as he often does, about "rigged elections" in California, where he has not apparently won a majority of votes, attributing that outcome to blatant "rigging." That's obvious, because everyone knows that Californians, like all Americans, really love The Donald. (He did win election fair and square nationally last time by a small margin, but did not carry California.) 


May 2026 "Sleazebag" Rant: Trump went on Truth Social to blast Fox for interviewing progressive Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), He considers Fox his own personal network, loyal only to him. 

President Trump also demanded that Senate Republicans fire the nonpartisan Senate parliamentarian, Elizabeth MacDonough, after she ruled that Republicans could not include funding for his White House ballroom in an immigration enforcement bill.

I already uploaded a recent blog draft and now I'm going to take a break, so may as well post this one as well.
