The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
#BecauseMiami: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou Federal Funding?

Oh, good afternoon, Billy. Thank you for having me on. And I'm happy to report that we have many members in our caucus. There are dozens of us. Dozens. And the membership is growing thanks to our message getting out. Thanks to people from all sides of the political spectrum of all political persuasions realizing that enough is enough. We used to agree on this issue.

This community, whether you were red, blue or another color, you agreed that this was a home for immigrants and exiles. And now Trump and his lackeys have made that not the case. So we're out there in the community saying that we're going to stand up for the American dream if these Cuban-American representatives refuse to do so. I'm a Cuban American myself.

I once had faith in these representatives in Marco to do the right thing on immigration at the very least. And that's not what's happening. So we're speaking out.

#BecauseMiami: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou Federal Funding?

You're absolutely right. They are taking the international out of Florida International University. This is a giant FU to immigrants and to our community. I went to Miami-Dade County Public Schools. Most of my friends who had good grades went to FIU. They were citizens and they were undocumented immigrants.

And they were able to go there thanks to the Florida Dream Act that used to be sponsored by none other than Marco Rubio. It's ridiculous now that we're going to have to ask FIU students to show their papers. This is not the country that my family fled to for freedom.

#BecauseMiami: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou Federal Funding?

Yeah, the loyalty here is not to FIU, to the Miami-Dade community. It's to Red MAGA, just like the people who oppose my family's rights were loyal to Red Fidel Castro and Red Hugo Chavez. We're seeing the same playbook here at FIU where they're going to harass students. They're going to ask for papers. They're going to take... Visas away from people just speaking up and speaking their mind.

This is not the United States that we came for for freedom. This is this is something completely different. This is Joel Pyle's dream. And they got rid of him in Arizona. And somehow we have to deal with this in Florida.

#BecauseMiami: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou Federal Funding?

Ice trucks are showing up outside of DMVs. Ice trucks are showing up outside of lawyer offices. Ice trucks are showing up to detain Cubans that are taking out the trash. This is a culture of fear that they want. They want undocumented immigrants. They want legal immigrants to self-deport. This is the epitome of absurdity. And it's only going to get worse if we let this happen in an FIU.

#BecauseMiami: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou Federal Funding?

It's just a tariff disaster by another name. We're going to see the best and brightest of the world who used to come to the United States for education go elsewhere. And we're going to lose the future companies of Google, of Twitter, of companies like that that were led by immigrants. We're going to lose all that. And where are they going to go? Canada, Europe?

They're going to go to our former allies who Trump has ruined relationships with. And it's only going to cost us jobs, going to cost us our strong economy, and it's going to cost us our moral superiority over dictatorships.
