How anyone can still talk about joining a union that is clearly on its deathbed is beyond me. It illuminates that these people don't have a real talking point. They have a little piece of mythology they're still holding out might be true, but it has a talking donkey in it, so... 😕
@talk2blb.eurosky.social No it should not be the 51st state it should be a free Republic

Since all you're doing is hitting the non-sequitirs You'll be happy to know the US is cheating to finalize Puerto Rico. If you're that into the idea of PR statehood, enjoy your right wing project.

The Jones Act waiver has delivered 10.1 million barrels of petroleum to Puerto Rico, which is about four times the 2004–2025 annual average, in less than 7 months. The benefits of Jones Act relief are clear. Learn more from Cato’s Colin Grabow. https://ow.ly/Anc15100fZz
Trump continuing his war against international order
EEUU se está embabillando y, envés de ignorar las resoluciones y sus responsabilidades como nuestro colono, ha decidido atacar directamente al organismo descolonizador de la ONU. Que se sepa, EEUU NO reconoce el derecho a la independencia y libre determinación de Puerto Rico.

So you don't believe Puerto Ricans should have a functioning economy you don't believe puerto ricans should have affordable housing you don't believe that puerto ricans should have a capable health care system and you don't believe Puerto Ricans should have sound infrastructure

He already did this: Puerto Rico. That was during his first term.
Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

Post-World War II anti-communist hysteria hit Puerto Rico through legal assaults and J. Edgar Hoover’s clandestine tricks. Although the FBI met unexpected resistance, the strategy cemented Puerto Rico’s status as a powerless “commonwealth.”

“The history of modern Puerto Rico is inextricably intertwined with the US military industrial complex.” – Kristina Lizardy-Hajbi www.christiancentury.org/features/emp...
the United States did more damage to the education system when in 1900 they imposed English only instruction which within 15 years was so disastrous that they had to begin scaling it back until it's inevitable full wide repeal in 1949. In fact a Columbia study found dropout rates at 80%
destroyed? how? PR was extremely impoverished & 84% illiterate. It relied heavily on agriculture - primarily coffee, sugar cane, and tobacco, but couldn't do shit because they lacked paved roads, had shitty farming tools and equipment... did i mention droughts and hurricanes that destroyed crops?

We need to start asking Evangelical Christians over and over if they disavow the Terceiro Comando Puro
Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

Important Thread that i recommend y'all read cause it goes into the fact that the concept of PR Statehood is a lie for the corrupt Pro Statehood party to remain in power while ignoring all of the crises that are affecting the island. Don't let a "Vote Blue no matter what" dipshit tell you otherwise
The PNP, as it has done in previous years, has formally solicited the US government and Congress to admit Puert Rico as a state. This, however, is not a legitimate request. Beyond the fact that it isn’t democratic whatsoever, it is a strategy the party employs to distract from their bad governance.
