Dems want feds to block Latinos in Miami from hearing conservative radio

Well, the masks are off. Now that Republicans have increased a portion of the Hispanic vote in 2020, the Congressional Democrats are upset and scared and are trying to force the federal government to prevent Latinos from hearing anything other than leftist ideas.

Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CBC) want the Federal Communications Commission to block the sale of Miami Spanish language radio stations they think will move from left-wing programming to a more conservative slant, and that scares the crap out of them. One of these members include: Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), the chair of its political arm.

America CV, a Spanish-language media company, announced that it was buying Caracol 1260 AM this month. Soon after, it said it would change the station’s name to America Radio and replaced Raúl Martínez, a former Democratic mayor of Hialeah and liberal talk show host, Newsweek reported. Caracol is owned by America CV which owns America Te Vé.

"Hey Fat, wanna have a pushup contest?"

Martínez’s dismissal poured fresh fuel on the ongoing clash between Republicans and Democrats over Spanish-language programming in South Florida. Democrats have whined for years, especially during the last presidential election, that they are not represented in Hispanic media dominated by conservative and Republican voices. It would be a different story if the left controlled the mainstream media, but there's Fox News, another network they want to eliminate.

Spanish-language radio in Miami grew along the Cuban exile community, who tend to vote conservative since Fidel Castro became their dictator. Stations such as WQBA, La Cubanísima, La Poderosa and Radio Mambi reflected the exiles’ drive for a free Cuba.

However, as time went by, Miami's Spanish language radio was also influenced by other Hispanic groups such as Colombians and Venezuelans, and thus became more liberal.

Marcell Felipe, cofounder of the company, told conservative outlet The Daily Wire, “America Teve is being accused of being conservative because it is anti-Castro [which is mostly true, because of the love Democrats have for dictators like Fidel and Che].

"We will not apologize for promoting democracy and opposing the Castro regime because we represent a community who are victims of that regime,” Felipe added.

Isn't it funny how the left fears the competition of ideas?

Some Dems want AOC dumped after 1 term

Highly misinformed but also poor at math and morality, Democratic socialist newbie Rep. Alexandria Occasionally Coherent-Cortex (NY) has come onto the political scene like a clown car out of control in just the few weeks since her "inauguration-coronation."

Her colleagues on Capitol Hill aren't impressed by her high energy, low intellect.

Since defeating Joe Crowley, an incumbent Democrat who quite possibly would follow in the footsteps and flying hands of Nancy Pelosi as House Speaker, Occasionally Coherent-Cortex publicly announced that she has partnered with the far-left Justice Democrats. The group's mission is to primary currently established Democrats who don't swing far enough to the left to suit their socialist desires. 

The Justice Democrats define what justice is, and the world suffers for it.

"We as Justice Democrats [they got their name from "The Justice League" because most of their reading is from comic books] have the chance to really transform the Democratic Party running in competitive primary elections in Democratic-held seats," one of the group’s leaders said in a recent promotional video for their campaign to primary Democrat incumbents. 

"One of the important things that gets told in order to, like, settle us down is, 'I agree with you. We have the same goals,''' Occasionally Coherent-Cortex, like, added. "It's great that everyone thinks these issues are important. We need to make them urgent." 

Like wow.

That "urgency" requires that old faces and voices of less radical Democrats must be voted out to make room for the lunatics who still think Venezuela is an outlier of socialism. 

According to The Hill, pretty little Miss Cortex's public call for more radical candidates to replace her fellow Democrats has "infuriated" her colleagues, some of whom are already floating the idea of finding a primary challenger who can make the youngest woman to ever be elected to Congress a "one-term congressperson."

"At least one House Democrat has been privately urging members of the New York delegation to recruit a local politician from the Bronx or Queens to challenge Ocasio-Cortez," The Hill’s Scott Wong reported. The congressperson obviously has to remain anonymous lest Antifa burn his or her house down.

Wong reported that among those who have begun to look askance at the freshman representative are "many" Congressional Black Caucus members. "Many New York and Congressional Black Caucus lawmakers were also furious with Ocasio-Cortez after a recent Politico report stated she and the grass-roots group aligned with her, Justice Democrats, were considering backing a primary challenge to fellow New York Democrat Hakeem Jeffries, a Black Caucus member and establishment insider who succeeded Crowley as caucus chairman," Wong wrote.

However, Occasionally Coherent-Cortex and the Justice Democrats deny the claims in Politico’s report.

For now, reports Wong, her fellow Democrats are playing nicey nice, at least on the surface.

Aside from pissing off many in the Congressional Black Caucus, the newbie socialist also reportedly angered some among the Congressional Hispanic Caucus with her plan to help the Justice Democrats take out centrist incumbent Dem. Henry Cuellar (TX). "We’re going to protect our members and we’re going to protect our own. Full stop," said former Hispanic Caucus whip Rep. Pete Aguilar (CA), Wong notes. "There are plenty of [swing] races and seats that we can play in, and we want to devote our resources to that."

Cortex ought to spend some time in Venezuela--at least long enough to have to go to the toilet and find that there's no toilet paper. Maybe have dinner there with an average family and discover the meat had a name--Vagabundo [aka Rover].

I hope that 2019 will be the year you follow Brain Flushings and have a few laughs while you get a conservative viewpoint. Politics is the new NFL without the mindless kneeling and this blog will both inform you and hopefully entertain you bigly.
