Cuban Operative From Hasan Piker And Code Pink's Luxury Communist Vacation Planning Committee Arrested After Rubio Ruins The Fun

In a shocking development that has leftist activists clutching their Che Guevara T-shirts, the Department of State announced on Wednesday that three Cuban nationals were taken into federal custody after Secretary Marco Rubio had the audacity to terminate their legal status in the US. One of those arrested was a man the department said has "spent more than a decade working as a foreign subversive for the Communist Cuban regime’s premier influence and intelligence front group in the United States."

Carlos Antonio Lloga Dominguez, along with his wife and son, was taken into custody by federal agents. Lloga Dominguez was employed by the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the People (ICAP) for over a decade, the department said, and has continued to maintain ties to the network during his time in the US.

Rubio designated ICAP for sanctions in early June. The group "is the central node in a sprawling Cuban intelligence and influence operation, claiming to span more than 2,000 organizations across more than 150 countries," the department said. The current head of ICAP, Fernando González Llort, previously served 15 years in US prison for his role in the Wasp Network, a Cuban spy ring discovered in Florida in the late 90s.

The department said, "Working in close coordination with the Cuban communist regime, ICAP maintains an outsized footprint across the United States, trafficking in vile anti-American propaganda, cultivating pro-Havana regime activists and politicians, and lobbying federal, state and local politicians on behalf of the Cuban dictatorship. The organization facilitates close working relationships between Havana and radical U.S. groups, using America’s far left milieu as a vehicle to export Cuba’s Communist revolution to the United States."

Che got woke

How dare they. Everyone knows the real threat to democracy is mean tweets and insufficient pronoun usage, not actual foreign agents embedded in America's compassion industrial complex.

An investigation by Fox News Digital found that ICAP officials have been closely coordinating with American nonprofits over the last decade to support Cuba’s Communist Party. The nonprofits include People’s Forum, Breakthrough News, Tricontinental, CodePink, the ANSWER Coalition, and the Party for Socialism and Liberation, many of which are funded by far-left businessman Neville Roy Singham. Because nothing says "organic grassroots movement" like a trust fund socialist wiring cash from overseas.

In May, the Trump administration's Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control subpoenaed socialist political YouTuber Hasan Piker, as well as CodePink’s Susan Medea Benjamin, over a trip taken to Cuba. One such trip took place in March, with activists being seen partying while much of the island faced a blackout. ICAP worked with US nonprofits to organize this trip. Nothing builds solidarity with the starving proletariat quite like doing the Macarena while grandma sits in the dark.

The March trip was under the banner of the "Nuestra America Convoy," with organizers claiming the trip aimed to deliver humanitarian aid and protest US sanctions. They also painted murals. Of course they did. Revolutionary change begins with tasteful public art.

The federal inquiry is over whether activists who went on the March trip violated US sanctions laws through the financing, coordination or delivery of goods to Cuba, including potential contacts with Cuban government personnel or entities on the island.

Amid news of the subpoena, it was revealed that Piker had admitted in 2025 that the Cuban government had reached out to a contact of his in an attempt to get him to come to the country. "The Cuban government actually hit my contact from the embassy and told them that if the only thing stopping Hasan from coming to Cuba was the consistent internet access, we can make it happen," he said.

Truly, the Cuban regime's willingness to provide reliable Wi-Fi for content creators is the kind of humanitarian outreach that makes America look bad. Thank goodness patriotic federal agents are finally treating these brave truth-tellers like the foreign influence agents they keep proving themselves to be. The revolution will not be subsidized.

Martha McSally appointed to fill McCain's Senate seat

Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ) has been appointed to fill the late John McCain's Senate seat following Sen. Jon Kyl's (R-AZ) stepping down at year's end. Kyl was originally assigned by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey to fill McCain's seat.

Gov. Ducey made the announcement on Tuesday about McSally's appointment. She had lost to Democrat Kyrsten Sinema in November for the other Senate in a close election. Sinema, a staunch leftist, has made a number of disparaging remarks about Arizonans and the state, so her winning over McSally proves to a degree that some people are too stupid to care or too uninformed to know that the person you voted for basically called you a 'meth-head.'

“All her life, Martha has put service first — leading in the toughest of fights and at the toughest of times,” Ducey said in a statement. “With her experience and long record of service, Martha is uniquely qualified to step up and fight for Arizona’s interests in the U.S. Senate. I thank her for taking on this significant responsibility and look forward to working with her and Senator-Elect Sinema to get positive things done.”

McSally, who distinguished herself early in her career as the first female fighter pilot to serve in combat, said she was “humbled and grateful” for the opportunity to serve.

Sinema distinguished herself early in her career as a member of Code Pink and said that she didn't care if someone joins the Taliban to shoot U.S. troops (a comment McSally called "treason"). She also defended anarchists destroying property, characterized U.S. soldiers as evil demons, and called Arizona "a meth lab of democracy."

It will be interesting to see how the two new Arizona senators get along.

“I am humbled and grateful to have this opportunity to serve and be a voice for all Arizonans,” McSally’s statement said. “I look forward to working with Senator-Elect Kyrsten Sinema and getting to work from day one.”

After McCain’s passed away in August, Kyl returned to the upper chamber at Ducey’s request after retiring his Senate seat in 2013. Kyl announced last week that he would serve through the end of the current legislative session and vacate his seat effective December 31.

Cindy McCain expressed hope that McSally would continue her husband’s legacy of service above self interest in a Tuesday tweet and Joy Behar is a schmuck. Just saying.

“My husband’s greatest legacy was placing service to AZ & USA ahead of his own self-interest,” she tweeted. “I respect @dougducey’s decision to appoint @RepMcSally to fill the remainder of his term. Arizonans will be pulling for her, hoping that she will follow his example of selfless leadership.”

McSally’s seat will once again be on the ballot in 2020 and it is hoped by everyone with a brain that she wins the 2020 election.

Code Pink's Gold thinks Linda Sarsour is the greatest ally to the Jews

On "The Ingraham Angle" earlier this week, Laura Ingraham interviewed Ariel Gold, the national co-director of Code Pink.

According to Wikipedia, Code Pink is an international NGO that describes itself as a "grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end U.S.-funded wars and occupations, to challenge militarism globally and to redirect our resources into health care, education, green jobs and other life-affirming activities."

The organization has also gotten involved with trips to meet with drone victims in Pakistan and Yemen, bringing them to the U.S., as well as Guantanamo Bay prison in which they perform a protest yearly in front of the White House.

But most importantly for this discussion, Code Pink advocates for the Boycott, Sanction and Divest movement (BDS) against Israel. Their love of so-called Palestine and hatred of Jews, even from their secular Jewish national co-director, Ariel Gold, became apparent in the Laura Ingraham interview. It also displayed Gold's lack of knowledge of what she was espousing.

Gold said of the known anti-Semitie and supporter of Nation of Islam's Louis Farrakhan, that he Jewish community has "no greater ally" than she.

We call that 'gaslighting' because it's exactly opposite of the facts.

Laura Ingraham asked Gold: "You say that Linda Sarsour is an ally of the Jewish people, then why would Jewish Americans like Jonathan Greenblatt--he is the head of the Anti-Defamation League--have a real problem with her statements?"

The Sharia sycophant responded by saying that Greenblatt is "disgraceful" and is "spending his time going after people who are our real allies. After the attack on Jewish cemeteries, Linda Sarsour raised over $100,000 after the Pittsburgh massacre, she raised over $200,000."

"We have no greater ally in the Jewish community in this time where anti-Semitism is dangerously on the rise than Linda Sarsour," Gold claimed.

Except that according to Jihad Watch, Sarsour gave $10,000 to the synagogue and $150,000 of that money was given to an Islamic Center. So as far as Sarsour is concerned, the joke's on the Jews.

Gold then accused the ADL of being on a "witch hunt" against Sarsour because she is a "strong, Palestinian, Muslim woman," instead of "dealing with the fact that we have white nationalism in the Senate, in the House, and in the White House."

Ingraham laughed and asked her to clarify what in the world she was talking about. "Name three white nationalist Senators," she challenged.

"What about Shaun King?" Gold said.

"Why, is he a white nationalist? In the U.S. Senate? Shaun King?"

"In the House," Gold clarified.

“He is an activist for Black Lives Matter,” Ingraham explained.

“Sorry I might be referring to…”

“That’s all right,” Ingraham responded.

Gold later explained that she was referring to Rep. Steve King (R-IA).

Gold also went on to idiotically defend Marc Lamont Hill, who was recently fired from CNN for implying Israel should be eliminated when he used the slogan “free Palestine from the river to the sea,” a quite commonly used phrase by Hamas and other terrorist organizations that call for the elimination of the state of Israel, which is why his words got a round of applause from the anti-Semitic anal sphincters in attendance at the UN where he had spoken.

“Marc Lamont Hill was clear that what he was discussing is that Palestinians deserve freedom, equality, and justice, just as Israelis do,” Gold said. Either she is stupid or just covering up for her own anti-Zionist views.

Ingraham asked, “Why is he hanging out with Farrakhan, would you hang out with Farrakhan?”

“I have no love for Farrakhan,” Gold answered.

“Okay, so why is the head of the Women’s March posing with him and why is the trio of fools at the Women’s March showing up at his Nation of Islam conferences? Why?” Ingraham asked the empty vessel made of Gold.

“Linda Sarsour shows up for Jews. No one showed up after the Pittsburgh massacre,” Gold said.

Gold took to Twitter later to call it “ridiculous” that she was the only Jew in the conversation and that Ingraham and the other guest, Michelle Malkin, “argued they, not me were the authority on protecting Jews.”

But Gold believes herself to be Jewish based on a knish she once ate long ago.
