“共产主义全是一派胡言”:众议员卡洛斯·希门尼斯
佛罗里达州共和党众议员卡洛斯·希门尼斯展示了他在古巴童年故居的照片,谈及他在共产主义制度下的经历,并解释为何他将这种意识形态称为“全是一派胡言”。希门尼斯还警告称,在192名众议院民主党人投票反对一项谴责社会主义的决议后,民主党内部的分歧正在加剧,该内容出自《美国报道》节目。

【福克斯新闻独家报道】古巴裔美国议员对佛罗里达州针对古巴前领导人劳尔·卡斯特罗的逮捕令表示欢迎,后者被指与1996年击落两架民用飞机事件有关。议员们表示,此举是向古巴共产主义政权追究责任的新一步,并誓言将继续为该岛国的自由而战。
此前,佛罗里达州第十一司法巡回法院首席法官阿里安娜·法哈多·奥尔尚认定,有合理理由相信卡斯特罗共谋犯下一级谋杀罪,涉及1996年在古巴附近国际水域击落两架执行人道主义任务的迈阿密民用飞机事件。
“作为国会中唯一一名古巴出生的议员,这一刻对我而言意义非凡,”佛罗里达州共和党众议员卡洛斯·希门尼斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“数十年来,劳尔·卡斯特罗及其共产主义政权一直在压迫古巴人民,同时逃避责任。”
希门尼斯将这份逮捕令称为追求正义过程中的“有力信号”,并补充道,那些给古巴人民带来苦难的人很快将“为他们的罪行付出代价”。
“此前没有任何一届政府采取过这一历史性举措,我们的社群将永远铭记这一点,”他继续说道。“对于数百万在这种暴政下受苦的古巴人,包括我们这些被迫流亡海外的人而言,这标志着我们数十年来为自由而斗争的重要时刻。”
古巴裔美国议员警告:特朗普政府治下古巴政权更迭近在咫尺
佛罗里达州总检察长詹姆斯·尤特迈尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,卡斯特罗据称“下令”“蓄意、经国家批准冷血杀害四名佛罗里达人”,并称这份逮捕令是为导致卡洛斯·科斯塔、巴勃罗·莫拉莱斯、马里奥·德拉佩尼亚和阿曼多·阿莱杭德里 Jr. 死亡的共谋行为追究责任的一步。
尤特迈尔的办公室表示,这份逮捕令可能会限制卡斯特罗前往与美国有引渡协议国家的能力。

希门尼斯表示,尽管这份逮捕令具有“历史性意义”,但他和其他议员将继续斗争,直到古巴的“政治囚犯获得释放”,并且“古巴人民能够决定自己的命运”。
另一位古巴裔美国州议员、佛罗里达州众议员胡安·波拉斯表示,这份逮捕令表明佛罗里达州“永远不会忘记”共产主义政权暴行的受害者。
古巴独裁政权长期以来一直是美国的威胁。如今,它终于摇摇欲坠
“感谢迈阿密的法官签署了针对劳尔·卡斯特罗一级谋杀共谋罪的州逮捕令,”波拉斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“三十年后,正义仍在推进,但工作尚未完成。古巴尚未获得自由,我们绝不会停止,直到它实现自由。”
“古巴终将获得自由,”波拉斯用西班牙语补充道。

这份逮捕令源于1996年2月24日,“拯救兄弟会”运营的两架 unarmed 飞机在国际水域被击落事件。此次袭击造成四人死亡。时任古巴国防部长的卡斯特罗今年早些时候已因该死亡事件遭到联邦起诉。

Communism is ‘all a bunch of lies’: Rep Carlos Giménez
Rep. Carlos Gimenez, R-Fla., shares photos of his childhood home in Cuba while discussing his experience under communism and why he calls the ideology ‘all a bunch of lies.’ Gimenez also warns of a growing divide within the Democratic Party after 192 House Democrats voted against a resolution condemning socialism on ‘America Reports.’

FIRST ON FOX:Cuban-American lawmakers are welcoming a Florida arrest warrant for former Cuban leader Raúl Castro over his alleged role in the 1996 shootdown of two civilian aircraft, saying the move marks a new step toward accountability for the communist regime and vowing to keep fighting for freedom on the island.
The warrant comes after Ariana Fajardo Orshan, chief judge of Florida’s 11th Judicial Circuit, found probable cause to believe Castro conspired to commit first-degree murder in connection with the shootdown of two Miami-based civilian aircraft involved in a humanitarian operation near Cuba in 1996.
“As the only Cuban-born member of Congress, this moment is deeply personal,” Rep. Carlos Giménez, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital. “For decades, Raúl Castro and his communist regime have oppressed the Cuban people while evading accountability.”

Giménez described the warrant as a “powerful message” in the “pursuit of justice,” adding that those responsible for the suffering of the Cuban people could soon “answer for their crimes.”
“No previous administration has taken this historic step, and our community is eternally grateful for it,” he continued. “For the millions of Cubans who have suffered under this tyranny, including those of us forced into exile, this represents a significant moment in our decades-long struggle for freedom.”
CUBAN AMERICAN LAWMAKERS WARN CUBA IS CLOSER THAN EVER TO REGIME CHANGE UNDER TRUMP ADMINISTRATION
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier told Fox News Digital that Castro allegedly “ordered” the “premeditated, state-sanctioned murder of four Floridians in cold blood,” calling the warrant “a step toward accountability” for the conspiracy that led to the deaths of Carlos Costa, Pablo Morales, Mario de la Peña and Armando Alejandre Jr.

Uthmeier’s office said the warrant could limit Castro’s ability to travel to countries that have extradition agreements with the United States.

Giménez said that although the warrant is “historic,” he and other lawmakers will continue fighting until Cuba’s “political prisoners are released” and the “Cuban people can determine their own destiny.”
Florida state Rep. Juan Porras, another Cuban American lawmaker, said the warrant shows that Florida “will never forget” the victims of the communist regime’s atrocities.

“Thank you to the Miami judge who signed a state arrest warrant for Raúl Castro for conspiracy to commit first-degree murder,” Porras told Fox News Digital. “Thirty years later, justice is still moving, but the work is not done. Cuba is not free yet, and we will not stop until it is.”
“Cuba will be free,” Porras added in Spanish.

The warrant stems from the Feb. 24, 1996, shootdown of two unarmed aircraft operated by Brothers to the Rescue over international waters. Four people were killed in the attack. Castro, who was Cuba’s defense minister at the time, was federally indicted earlier this year in connection with the deaths.
