Donald Loves Delcy: The U.S. morphs Venezuela's regime holdover from despised to legitimized (opens the original)
Read excerpt
COMMENTARY President Trump all but confirmed this week he'll keep Venezuela's unpopular acting leader Delcy Rodríguez in place indefinitely. But could he remove her now even if he wanted to? Donald Trump has upgraded Delcy Rodríguez from loathed holdover to legitimized head of state. This week’s U.N. General Assembly in New York has been a giddy debutante ball for Venezuela’s acting president — and its climax came Tuesday night when President Trump sat down for an official pow wow with her at a
South Florida Democrats home in on Doral's rising immigration arrest fears as a mid-term target (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With Doral embroiled in rancorous controversy over its immigration enforcement agreement with the feds — and recent immigration raids in the city — Democrats on Tuesday made the city a mid-term election focus, demanding it sever ties with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. Because 70% of Doral’s population are immigrants, mostly Venezuelans, the so-called 287(g) agreement the city approved last year, to assist ICE with detaining migrants the agency says are here illegally, has mad
New poll suggests filling Cubans' stomachs could make it easier to fill their heads with democracy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
COMMENTARY A new Cuba poll should make the U.S. — especially U.S. Cubans — realize that without any democratic past to refer to, Cubans will prioritize economic improvement over political change. The British novelist Evelyn Waugh wrote that “we possess nothing certainly except the past.” That’s a powerful statement about the importance of human memory. And it’s a powerful reminder about the two countries that engross U.S. Latin America policy right now: Venezuela and Cuba. One has memory of demo
Federal watchdog confirms WLRN report that Alligator Alcatraz used 'risky' punishment (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The controversial but now defunct Everglades migrant detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz" did in fact employ punitive practices that presented "significant risks to detainee health and safety," according to the Department of Homeland Security's independent watchdog. In a report released over the weekend, the DHS' Office of Inspector General (OIG) confirms what WLRN reported exclusively more than a year ago — that Alligator Alcatraz was using small, cage-like enclosures to confine detai
'I shortened Mohamed to Mo': the Islamophobia 9/11 spawned has returned 25 years later (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Besides mass death and destruction, the 9/11 terrorists left behind another toxic footprint, especially in South Florida: Islamophobia. The 19 terrorists were al-Qaeda Islamists — but they hijacked Islam just as sinisterly as they hijacked the four jetliners they flew into New York's World Trade Center and other U.S. targets on Sept, 11, 2001. Even so, humane and law-abiding Muslim-Americans were suddenly forced to face a national convulsion of suspicion and animosity that, a quarter century lat
