Fidel Castro died at 90. Reaction to the news from Miami is a celebration. People filling the sidewalks waving American and Cuban flags. Making drums out of a pot and a big spoon, and beating them. Traffic is a slow-moving parade of cars, horns blowing, waving out of the windows, in both directions.
Live streaming from the Miami Herald.
What do you think will come first?
President Obama making a statement about Castro’s death. Pointing out his contribution to the world.
OR, President Obama making a statement to Americans about the five police executions in as many days, and that the very idea of attacking law enforcement is unacceptable. And maybe call for mandatory death sentence for anyone killing a cop, under any circumstances.
Tune in tomorrow.
