Cubans Shut Out by Trump Are Ditching Miami for Brazil's Deep South
Cubans have long navigated perilous jungles or shark-infested waters to flee deprivation and repression and reach the US. But as the Trump administration closes America's doors, migrants from the Caribbean island have forged a new escape route to Brazil's deep south.
With President Donald Trump's aggressive clampdown roiling migration patterns across the hemisphere, the top destination for outbound Cubans is no longer along Florida's shores. Instead of Miami they're flocking to Curitiba, in Brazil's farm country.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls Fox News And New York Post ‘Propaganda' Supporting ‘Foreign Wars'
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) slammed right-leaning news outlets Fox News and the New York Post on Monday, accusing them of brainwashing Americans into supporting U.S. involvement in a conflict between Israel and Iran. 'We've watched propaganda news for decades. I'll call out Fox News and the New York Post. They're known to be the neocon network news,' Greene told former Florida GOP lawmaker Matt Gaetz on his show on One America News Network. 'We have propaganda news on our side, just like the left does, and the American people have been brainwashed into believing that America has to engage in these foreign wars in order for us to survive, and it's absolutely not true,' Greene continued. Greene's comments came a week after Israel launched attacks aimed at a nuclear and military site in Iran, killing some of the country's top generals. In response, Iran launched missiles at Israel. President Donald Trump said he knew Israel's attacks on Iran were coming, even calling them 'excellent.' While Trump said the U.S. is not directly involved in the conflict between the two countries, he did not rule out future involvement. Greene went on to criticize Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who blasted U.S. reluctance to get involved in the conflict with Iran. 'Today, it's Tel Aviv. Tomorrow, it's New York,' Netanyahu said in an interview with ABC News on Monday, adding, 'Look, I understand 'America first.' I don't understand 'America dead.'' The Georgia Republican told Gaetz that Netanyahu's remark 'sounds like a threat to me,' adding that 'a Middle Eastern war will pull America back 20 years.' 'In order for America to not be dead, it's to stay America First, and this is what the American people want,' Greene said. 'It is not antisemitic to say that we do not want to go to war against Iran or any other country. That is not antisemitic at all.' Greene reiterated that she is 'completely opposed to this war' before criticizing Israel for launching the first strike against Iran. 'Of course, we don't want to see the people in Israel bombed, but they're only being bombed because Israel attacked Iran first, and that's the truth that we need to be talking about,' she said.

Trump: ‘We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran'
President Trump on Tuesday said 'we' have total control of the skies over Iran, amid questions over whether the president would authorize direct involvement in the escalating conflict Israel-Iran conflict. 'We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn't compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured 'stuff.' Nobody does it better than the good ol' USA,' he said on Truth Social. The president's post comes as he faces a choice on how involved the U.S. should be in the war and amid discussions on an attack on the Fordow nuclear facility. An attack would require the involvement of the U.S. because B-2 bombers dropping bunker-busting bombs are the only way to destroy the capabilities of a plant hidden deep in an Iranian mountain. The president earlier on Tuesday said he was seeking 'a real end' to the conflict, stressing that he's 'not looking for a ceasefire.' The president also described what he was seeking as a 'complete give-up' by Iran. 'I think they know not to touch our troops,' he said of Iran, warning the U.S. would be 'gloves off' in its response. Vice President Vance, who like Trump is known for wanting to keep the U.S. out of foreign wars, said a statement on X that the president has showed restraint so far in the conflict. 'He may decide he needs to take further action to end Iranian enrichment. That decision ultimately belongs to the president. And of course, people are right to be worried about foreign entanglement after the last 25 years of idiotic foreign policy,' Vance said. 'But I believe the president has earned some trust on this issue. And having seen this up close and personal, I can assure you that he is only interested in using the American military to accomplish the American people's goals. Whatever he does, that is his focus.' Trump departed the G7 in Canada late Monday, one day earlier than expected because he wanted to be back in Washington as Israel and Iran traded missile strikes.
