#FloridaSenate Angie Nixon on whether Cuba is a dictatorship in interview with CBS News: "That is what people have told me. I have never been to Cuba, and so I will have to take their word for it."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Nixon previously stated "Sí, absolutamente" that Cuba is a dictatorship in a Univision interview. CBS News corrected its post on this clip, noting it did not accurately portray her answer. periodicocubano.com/angie-nixon-ca… facebook.com/reel/114718922… univision.com/local/miami-wl…

Attributable to Connie Luck, spokesperson for the Vivek Ramaswamy campaign: “We don't know what happened between Amy and her mother, who first spoke out about Amy in 2020, but we know that Amy Acton is a serial fabulist who has some serious problems with the truth that the public needs to be aware of before deciding who to entrust as governor.

Donna Arthur lost custody of Amy Acton at age 12 after Acton's stepfather was charged with raping her. Arthur stayed married to him until his death. Acton and her brother have been estranged since. Multiple outlets cite 1978 court records of the charges. actonforgovernor.com/dr-amy-actons-… dispatch.com/story/news/pol…

I hope this ends Ramaswamy's political career, disgusting move by him. might bump the race to Lean D if post-controversy polls look poorly enough for him
