US Lawmaker Sends Blunt Warning to Cuba: "Start House-Hunting"
Senator Lindsey Graham has escalated tensions in the Caribbean by suggesting that the government of Cuba start looking for a new place to live. The South Carolina Republican made the comment on social media, urging the Cuban leadership to consider its options amid an increasingly volatile regional situation.
Graham's warning was sparked by President Donald Trump's earlier post on Truth Social, where he warned that oil imports from Venezuela would be off the table unless Cuba agrees to make a deal with the United States. The former president's message carried a tone of urgency and threat, claiming that Cuba relied heavily on Venezuelan oil and money for years but "BUT NOT ANYMORE!"
The US administration has been making aggressive overtures towards neighboring nations since its recent invasion of Venezuela. Cuba, Mexico, Colombia, and Greenland have all faced the specter of military campaigns in the region. Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently expressed his opposition to the Cuban government, calling it a "huge problem" that is "in a lot of trouble."
Rubio's comments were made during an appearance on Meet the Press, where he declined to rule out the possibility of an invasion of Cuba. The senator's stance has contributed to a heightened sense of unease in the region, with many analysts warning about the risks of escalating tensions between the US and its allies.
As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is clear: the US government is not shy about expressing its disapproval of Cuba's leadership. With Graham's blunt warning still fresh on social media, it remains to be seen how the Cuban government will respond to this latest challenge from Washington.

, then maybe Lindsey Graham is just keeping it real and trying to make Cuba see sense? BUT, if I take a step back, I'm like, 'Dude, is this really the kind of diplomacy you want to use?' 
It's so extra, but at the same time... I guess it could be a low-key way for Graham to say, 'Hey, we're watching you, Cuba.' 
Instead of resorting to threats and name-calling... I mean, Marco Rubio's comments were pretty harsh, but Graham's comment was straight up ridiculous 
. What do you guys think?

He's totally trolling Cuba now 
I don't think it's a joke, though - this guy has been a vocal critic of the Cuban government for years... [
It seems pretty aggressive and kinda over-the-top to me. And let's be real, it's not like the US hasn't been all up in Venezuela's grill lately... 
I'm just waiting for someone to clarify what exactly Cuba did wrong this time around. 
. The fact that Secretary Rubio declined to rule out an invasion of Cuba should be a clear warning sign for all parties involved – it's time for calm and constructive dialogue rather than aggressive posturing 
.
cuz invasions rnt exactly what u want 
US always good at making friends with its neighbors by threatening them... it's like they think the world revolves around their oil addiction 
anyway, think Cuba should just invest in some house flipping skills 
, who needs Venezuela oil when you can flip houses for a living 
. It sounds like the US is trying to strong-arm Cuba into submission. Newsflash: it won't work 
. And what's with all this talk about invading Cuba? That's just crazy talk 
. And can we talk about how Marco Rubio's comments are straight fire 
.
or investing in renewable energy projects 
... who knows, it might just lead to a cleaner, more sustainable future for everyone! 
I'm low-key worried about what's gonna go down with Cuba and the US next 
. Lindsey Graham is not helping by being all dramatic about them needing to "house hunt" 
I feel bad for the Cuban people having to deal with all this stress 
maybe it's time for the US to focus on their own issues instead of trying to bully everyone else 
. What's next? The US gonna start evicting other countries too? 
Like, come on Lindsey, get your act together before you make things worse #NotMyDiplomacy #CubaDeservesBetter 
. I mean, can you blame him? The guy's got a job to do and he's doing it
