    https://www.tampabay.com/florida-politics/buzz/2020/08/04/politifact-a-look-at-karen-bass-comments-about-castro-and-cuba/

    In her remarks following Castro's death she said, "I wish to express my condolences to the Cuban people and the family of Fidel Castro. The passing of the Comandante en Jefe is a great loss to the people of Cuba."

    Using that title would anger and offend exiles, said Fernand Amandi, a Democratic pollster in Miami. “Why offer condolences to oppressed Cuban people after the demise of their oppressor, jailer torturer and, in many instances, murderer?”

    Anyway, the PolitiFact article seems pretty detailed as to Bass' Cuba association.

      That's just one of several things she's said or done that shows her to be a communist.

          Remember when everyone said there's tons of evidence of collusion with Russia, but, strangely, under oath, there was no there there?

            Bass's first trip to Cuba?

            "Bass first visited Cuba in 1973 when she was 19 years old. The Atlantic magazine reported that she traveled as part of the Venceremos Brigade, a program jointly organized by the Castro government and the Students for a Democratic Society, a U.S. group. The Brigade organized trips for left-leaning Americans to Cuba.".

            That is how they describe SDS? A U.S. group? Really?

              @Mik the "D" stands for "Democratic."

              What's your problem...

                I'm not pro or con Bass. I just would not like to see her pay for something she was involved in at age 19.

                (I hit Submit by accident.)

                Resuming: Plenty of people express interest in Cuba in one way or another without being made to feel like a communist. If she's still too invested in pro-Castro type stuff, then fine, we don't want her in government. But if it's something she has left behind, I think to besmirch her solely because of something she was involved in 50 years ago because she's a present-day Democrat is dirty pool.

                  I’m against Bass. Florida is in play. Let’s not give that up before the fight even begins.

                          I had original thought Susan Rice would be his choice.

                          Now I may switch to Senator Duckworth.

                            More like Denator Suckworth.
