Rep. María Elvira Salazar, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Florida’s 27th district, shared a series of tweets addressing political issues related to Cuba and immigration policies under the Biden and Trump administrations. Her remarks were made on January 28, 2025.
In a tweet posted at 16:05 UTC, Rep. Salazar expressed concerns about the Cuban regime's actions against @jdanielferrer, highlighting her opposition to making "deals" with dictators. She stated: "The Cuban regime is once again targeting @jdanielferrer. FYI to the Dems, this is why you don’t make 'deals' with dictators! We knew that political prisoners would become bargaining chips in the dictatorships games. Now, Trump is back and the game is over for the regime."
At 16:06 UTC on the same day, Rep. Salazar reiterated her position in Spanish regarding political prisoners in Cuba under President Biden's administration. She tweeted: "Sabíamos que los presos politicos serían usados como 'fichas de intercambio' en el malévolo juego de la dictadura con Biden. Nunca hubo garantías de una 'liberación' incondicional y ahora los vuelven a amenazar. Pero empezó la era Trump y al régimen se le cerró el dominó."
Later that day, at 17:38 UTC, Rep. Salazar addressed criminal deportations under former President Trump's policies, emphasizing their impact on community safety compared to previous measures during President Biden's term. She declared: "DO THE CRIME, DO THE TIME! President Trump is delivering on his promise to deport the vicious Tren de Aragua criminals who terrorized our communities under President Biden. Pa’ fuera!"
