Ted Cruz, whose parents are native to Cuba, had the absolute best response to this news: “…will become a reporter for CNN.”

Boy if he didn’t hit the nail on the head with that one. CNN is state TV and a perfect place for someone like Raul Castro.
In tangentially related news, Cruz also called out CNN’s Fredo Cuomo for getting triggered that he isn’t wearing a mask anymore:
Hey Chris — did your bother “believe in science” when he sent Covid-positive patients into nursing homes, killed tens of thousands of New Yorkers & then repeatedly lied about it??
Oh, I forgot, CNN won’t cover that…. https://t.co/OkEBplHFbE

Don’t bother watching Cuomo unless you want an earful of smug hypocrisy…
