As the Trump administration threatens to intensify its "global campaign to crush radical left terrorism," we look at a new 100-page report issued by the State Department last week accusing the Cuban government of waging a "sustained campaign of subversion against the United States." The report claims Cuba has backed a number of groups in the United States, including the National Lawyers Guild, Pastors for Peace, the National Network on Cuba and the feminist antiwar organization CodePink.
Meanwhile, the Republican-led House Ways and Means Committee subpoenaed BreakThrough News last week, demanding the independent online news outlet hand over internal communications and financial records. BreakThrough News says it's being targeted over its coverage of U.S. mass deportations, ICE abuses, Cuba and Palestine solidarity and U.S. foreign policy.
