Panelists including former political prisoners Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara and José Daniel Ferrer, and experts from @ArchivoCuba joined @USAmbUN today at the UN to shed light on the reality of living under Cuban regime repression.

The Cuban regime tries to blame its failures on others, but the reality is clear: corruption, human rights abuses, and repression are the real roots of Cuba's problems.
Silk Road sites like Samarkand are becoming more familiar to Americans, including as a result of social media. Our Ambassador’s Fund for Cultural Preservation helped restore some tiles the Soviets marred.

SECRETARY RUBIO: I don't think it's a coincidence, to some extent, that pulling foreign aid into the State Department and away from this sort of independent, do-whatever-they-want organization which was USAID has had a direct impact on what's happening in the region.
Natalie has been doing great reporting lately on these and adjacent concerns ⬇️
“Biological male.”
“Biological female.”
“Protect the children.”
Those are phrases flagged in hate-speech research funded by the Council of Europe.
The published code categorizes biological-sex terms as “structural denial” and protecting children as a “dog whistle.”
The project, conducted by trans advocacy group TGEU and the Institute for Journalism and Social Change, examined YouTube comments.
The accompanying report calls for stronger media regulation addressing publishers that leave comments classified as hate speech online.

America First is common sense.
We are going to use all the elements of American Power to further the interests of the United States.
Under President Trump, we razed the federal debanking apparatus and redirected regulators to protect Americans from financial “deplatforming.”
This OCC report is a great example. The OCC, a powerful banking regulator, was previously weaponized for Operation Choke Point. Now, it investigates and exposes similar misconduct.
Because a lot of banking is transnational, and because “reputation risk” and “ESG” policies get incubated in international working groups and economic fora, this directly ties into diplomacy. We obviously sanction terrorists and other bad actors — but when it comes to mundane political disagreements on topics like migration or climate policy, it’s ultimately not in anybody’s interest to live in a world where your debit card can be deactivated for dissent.
Major banks closed accounts of MAGA, pro-life and other conservative groups disfavored by Biden admin: bombshell report trib.al/Ttt6eY9
Had a great time with Eugene Volokh (@VolokhC) at the Vanderbilt Global Free Speech Summit, discussing extraterritorial legal threats to free speech — which go way beyond the DSA.
Also ran into @TaylorLorenz !

NEW and EXCLUSIVE— I sat down today for @BreitbartNews with @SecRubio at @StateDept for a long-form on-camera interview. First piece of it just published — in it, Rubio explains the America First foreign policy.
“What’s right for America before anything else”

The Trump Administration is delivering concrete results with our Caribbean partners. Today’s U.S.-Caribbean Dialogue with 15 nations focused on expanding trusted investment, cutting off narcoterrorists, and strengthening commercial energy ties. Together, we are building a safer, more prosperous hemisphere. -JPS

For too long, Communist Cuba has been allowed to operate as an outpost for malign actors and terror groups – including the Islamic Republic of Iran, the world’s number one state sponsor of terrorism – to target the United States.
Today, I designated BICSA, a Cuban financial institution which has been providing financial services to sanctioned Iranian entities.
Let me be absolutely clear: the Trump Administration will not tolerate a rogue state hosting hostile foreign military, intelligence and terror operations less than a hundred miles from our homeland. state.gov/releases/office-of…

Great explanation of what the Greenland deal is so important and such a big win for America’s national security. 🇺🇸

My full fireside conversation with @patrickc at the Science: A New Golden Age Summit.
We discussed building new institutions for discovery, accelerating scientific progress, and how America can move faster on the hardest scientific challenges.
If you want to walk or jog around DC on Columbus Day, you can see the following memorials to the great 🇮🇹 explorer:
* Statue at Eisenhower building, 17th/Pennsylvania;
* Holy Cross Church; and
* Union Station, where I watched a Knights of Columbus ceremony. (This is the statue that used to be covered in HAMAS graffiti. No more!)
Urban lawlessness, ugliness, and decay are policy choices. We reject them.
As we approach Columbus Day, we reflect on the remarkable transformation of Columbus Circle.
Under the Biden administration, the fountain was broken down and covered in pro-Hamas graffiti.
Now, thanks to @POTUS, it is a symbol of American greatness!

America was formed by a civilization that has persisted for thousands of years and which must persist for thousands more.
It was the Civilization of Athens and Rome that transformed an infant seaboard republic into a continental empire.
