Senator Rubio’s speech at the RNC tonight was a powerful reminder of what it means to put Americans first. As a first-generation American, it was a message that deeply resonated with me, celebrating the diverse origins and shared resilience at the heart of our national identity.
🇻🇪🇺🇸| As a Venezuelan-American, my frustration is beyond words. Biden’s call for a new election is a slap in the face to those who risked everything to expose the rampant fraud laid bare by the Carter Center and the UN. Asking for a redo is a disregard for the will of the people.
🇻🇪🚨 | WATCH: Maduro boasts about capturing over 1,200 "criminals" and hunting for 1,000 more. He reveals plans to build maximum security prisons in 15 days to detain protestors, whom he claims were trained in Texas, Peru, and Chile. Sounds even more disturbing dubbed in English.
🇻🇪🇷🇺🚨 | A military officer with the insignia of the Russian state-funded Wagner Group has been recorded in Venezuela, mingling with Maduro’s officials. In the video, they can be heard discussing the toppling of statues of Hugo Chávez across the country.
“Latine” is surging in popularity absolutely nowhere. None of these terms are. Spanish is a romance language wherein nouns are gendered, which is why these terms will never catch on in everyday parlance. So for the millionth time, stop trying to Anglicize the Spanish language.
"Latine," a gender-neutral way to describe or refer to people with Latino origins, is surging in popularity over terms like "Latinx" on university campuses, in museums, and among researchers and media.

Maduro is not a good guy. Venezuela deserves much better.
The US has plenty of domestic oil & gas production and nothing would happen fast in Venezuela, so it would certainly not affect this election.
