Question for the Brothers. Do you guys let them know you are civil engineers when you apply for the lotteries? The US needs people with skills. That's one of the ways my father was able to emigrate from Greece as there was a shortage of Doctors at the time in the US.
Hi Brothers, just recently found your page and I am enjoying your videos very much 😊 come to Scotland we need skilled workers. And we are soon to become an Independent country. We are Scottish NEVER British and we don't want to be in this corrupt union with Engkand 🏴🏴🏴🏴 oh and Scotland is beautiful 😊🏴🏴🏴
@@HABIBIBROTHERS1 I didn't know you were trying to move to the US. You are the kind of people we WANT coming to America. You respect our laws and you are not jumping the border and coming here illegally. I am going to make some calls for you guys and see if we can help you. I liked you both from day one and I am going to make sure the right people are made aware of you both. I noticed other comments telling you to go to Scotland also. Scotland is a wonderful country too. America and Canada would be the top 2 options, but Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, France, Germany, Australia are awesome places too. Far better than where you live now!
America is not perfect. We are human, and make mistakes. The ideals to which this nation was built are what make us both loved and hated around the world. But one this is unmistakable, it is people like Yoel and other immigrants that REMIND us what most of us take for granted. It is THEY that infuse fresh blood into this nation, forging it into a better place for all its inhabitants. When we get back to judging a person on their actions instead of misguided beliefs. Bless you guys, I hope one day you get to visit us. EVERY person in the world deserve to be heard.
The US has second largest number of Spanish speakers in the world. Contrary to myth, there is no official language in the US, though English is the common language and what is taught in schools. In larger metro areas, particularly in the NE, FL, CA and cities like Chicago, there are many languages spoken. About 21% of Americans speak a non English language at home. Spanish is currently the most common.
The Tomb of the Unknown soldier, in Arlington National Cemetery, where you asked if the soldiers do that every day, is a memorial for soldiers who have not had their remains identified. Soldiers stand on guard in shifts. They guard it every day, all day, every night, all night. Rain, snow, heat, or any other weather. It is always guarded, those soldiers protecting it and honoring those who died. Since 1937, not a minute has passed without the monument being guarded. The soldiers who guard it are elite soldiers. Not just anyone is accepted for the duty of guarding it and all soldiers who guard it volunteer for the duty, to stand there in any weather to honor the unknown deceased. Right after that, still at Arlington, you saw the individual graves of soldiers who are known and buried there. Not all soldiers are buried there. It is something that is applied for.
@@LiteralCrimeRave "In 1937, the guards became a 24/7 presence, standing watch over the Unknown Soldier at all times." "There has been a sentinel on duty in front of the Tomb every minute of every day since 1937." "Snow, sleet, heat, wind and rain, they never give up the guard." Those are DIRECT quotations from the Department of Defense website where they have a page giving information on it. And just in case you want to say that it didn't say hurricane and want to imply that "never" applies only to the listed weather types instead of being absolute... "The Sentinels of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier stand watch 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, in any weather." ANY WEATHER. That is a DIRECT quote from the Arlington National Cemetery website. "It doesn’t matter if the sun is shining, if a hurricane is passing through Washington, DC or if a Tomb Guard accidentally gets stabbed in the foot. There will always be an American soldier of the highest caliber “walking the mat” at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier." That is from the Reserve National Guard website, specifically mentioning hurricane as a condition that does not prevent a guard from being present. I don't know where you got your "information" from but those quotes, from highly authoritative sources relating to the subject, say it is wrong.
Night tours of DC are amazing. The Vietnam Wall is always moving--meet so many people grieving family or brothers in arms. Our form of government strives to make manifest a more perfect union. Always moving forward (not backward). All who come here have the opportunity to make as much of their lives as they are able. No guarantees--the opportunity--if one is brave and motivated enough to take it.
You guys need to react to the movie "National Treasure." An action movie with a quest, a lesson is history, with a touch of humor. You won't be disappointed. This country does accept all people - but they must enter legally. Otherwise, it would destroy us to try to absorb everyone otherwise.
The statue on the Capitol Bldg. - Per google...The statue depicts a classical female figure wearing a helmet, dress, and toga. Her right hand rests on the hilt of a sheathed sword, while her left hand holds a laurel wreath of victory and the United States shield. The statue combines three traditional personifications: Liberty, Minerva, and America.
I got to see DC last year. It was so cool! Even the train station was magnificent Everyone who serves in the military is given a plot to be buried in if their family chooses. And yes we have beautiful cemetaries. They are very peaceful and beautiful. I visited a church cemetary called portage prairie that had graves from the 1800s in it. ❤
Your knowledge of other countries, their politics and important buildings so impress me. Obviously you both love to learn about other cultures, which is really lovely.
In 8th grade on our class trip to DC we got to sit in on an actual session in the Capitol, we had to be super quiet we were up in one of the side galleries overlooking the chamber. A lot of schools across America take class trips to DC so that kids get to see the legislative process and government in action but also to know our history, we go to all the monuments and museums. The two monuments they showed, WWII and Vietnam were so incredibly moving, The Wall makes a lot of people cry, the surface is so polished it's like looking in a mirror, it's haunting. The Lincoln Memorial really doesn't translate well on film, it is massive! being inside it's very echo-y and hushed, it feels like a sacred space, like being in a big cathedral. It's very peaceful. On each of the inside walls are carved his greatest speeches, his Second Inaugural Address and The Gettysburg Address. Honestly the Lincoln Memorial is one of my favorite places I've ever been, there's just something about it. The last time I was in DC was during the pandemic and everything was closed except for the monuments on The Mall.
The building with the dome, that they met the Congressman in, was the US Capitol Building. It contains both houses of Congress: the Senate (represents the States) and the House of Representatives (represents the people). The building with the big iron fence around it was the White House.
There are many people in Florida that have Cuban or Caribbean backgrounds. Spanish is spoken often in Texas, Florida, and the southwestern states. We have no official language, and people from all over the world bring their culture and languages here.
1981-82 I carried caskets and folded flags for the US Navy as a member of the US Navy Ceremonial Guard. Arlington National Cemetery, White House, Pentagon, etc. Then I was sent to Beirut, Lebanon so I could experience exactly how those caskets were filled. Or not "filled", if we couldn't find all of him.
It’s a democracy, they have to be kind and listen to the people, their salary is paid by our taxes and we vote them in. Without our support, they do not exist. If we don’t like a congressman we can vote them out the next election. Same for governors, presidents, local judges, sheriffs, mayors, etc.
I don’t know why people think “democracy” is a good thing for a country. The United States was never and hopefully will never be a communist country, that’s basically the same as democracy, if you really think about it. We are the Constitutional Republic. Democracy does not offer enough political stability, which can lead to a lot of problems.
@RE-bg9ds LoL... Dude... Listen, man... ... My man, we are a constitutional parliamentary representative republic... With said representatives being directly elected by their constituents, registered voting citizens in their respective congressional districts- for a four year term as that districts' congressman/woman... OR directly elected by the voters from their whole state, if they are serving as 1 of 100 Senators. The only real election that isn't via direct vote is that of the presidency; which is technically only finalized by the electors from each state's voting districts. Yet, we are absolutely a democracy. This rather recent, and entirely misguided & misinformed, partisan political rhetoric... all of this nonsensically fallacious propaganda that is trying to muddy that understanding amoungst the general public... that is just literally a misleading argument, and it is an undeniably one made with malicious intent. As, the only reason that the far right-wing extremists have been spewing that t talking point is to try and subvert the American publics' faith in, and understanding of, exactly that fact... That the United States is a democracy. Which we clearly are, a democratic, constitutionally established, parliamentary representative republic; one with democratically elected representatives... It is a single nation formed by, currently 50, states that are all joined in an inviolable, unbreakable, inseparable Union... A singular geopolitical entity made up of all 50 states + a myriad of territorial provinces... all of which is ultimately governed by a single federal governmental system - The specific model of that federal republic is formed of three separate but equal branches: The Judicial/Legislative/Executive. So, before you try to merely regurgitate the rhetorical spinnings of these extremist idealougues on the far right, my man... consider what it truly is that these sellouts are doing all of it for... they are lying, conniving, professional corporatist pundits, working for an agenda that limits individual American citizens' constitutional liberties... many of them nowadays are STILL striving to make real the lost cause of the long dead secessionists. They are radicals, motivated by a fearfully racist bigotry... they want to disenfranchise as much of the nation's citizenry as they can successfully disqualify from participating in our elections. They are the un-American sellouts, those that sold their souls for a lucrative career of schilling for the agendas of the obscenely wealthy, aristocratic, elitist oligarchs', and they will say anything they are told to say, usually whenever they're on one of these corporate-owned cable "news" channels... but ALL of it is merely the propagation of corporatist propaganda. It isn't about political parties anymore. It is about being a useful idiot for the corporate oligarchy or not being one... as that is all there truly is, now. They LOVE to divide the American people via employing a tactic of manufacturing culture war conflicts, and constantly keeping as many gullible rubes emotionally outraged at some made up nonsense or another, it doesn't really matter to any of them, THEY do whatever they please regardless of what the law may say... but some folks always fall for their well crafted propaganda campaigns, and I guess that some folks just always shall fall for it, too... unfortunately. 😮😢 ❤😊
The history of Cuba and the USA is a complicated one. Cuba was acquired as a protectorate of the USA after the Spanish-American War. Cuba gained independence in 1902, however, Guantanamo Bay, a small piece of the island, was leased to the USA military (and is still in use). The USA also retained the right to interfere in Cuban affairs. Soon after, the USA intervened in an uprising and appointed a governor for 3 years. In 1908, Cuban government was resumed, but the USA continued to interfere. In 1924, Gerardo Machado was elected president. He formed the island into a place for American tourists and promoted gambling and prostitution. He was eventually forced into exile in 1933. The new guy was overthrown the same year, eventually leading to the rule of the dictator Fulgencio Batista. [There was a lot of back and forth, in between]. In 1952, Batista suspended the country's constitution. He then aligned himself with the wealthiest landowners. He eventually resigned in 1958. Revolutionary forces took the capital in 1959. Fidel Castro legalized the Communist Party and carried out mass executions of Batista policemen, politicians and informers accused of torture and murder. He then nationalized the farmland to be used by workers. In 1960, President Eisenhower [USA] began planning for an invasion. It happened in 1961, under President Kennedy [USA]. The invasion, using Cuban exiles, failed. This then led to Cuba allowing Russian missiles to be placed on their soil. In 1963, the Communist Party solidified its power. From that time on, Cuba has sent military personnel all over the world to help liberation/revolutionary groups. The USA has held to an economic and travel ban on the country for decades. Russian military left Cuba in 1991. They then turned to China for support. Cuba has also been aligned with the dictatorship in Venezuela. Most of the wealthy families from the time of Batista moved to Miami [Florida], taking their money with them. They have been very anti-Communist and many aligned with conservative politics. Unlike most non-Europeans in the USA, the Cubans of south Florida tend to support Republicans. Most non-European Americans are heavily supportive of the Democrats, who are more likely to use the government to assist the poor and insure minority rights. That's a basic version of USA-Cuba relations.
It's an Eagle, not a man. If a country has a terrible controlling government, they likely blame the US, or do not like the US. Despite the flaws in our country, any country, I am grateful every day to be born in the US.
I think that a lot of people fail to mention is that there are regions here where people speak Arabic, too! I used to be able to learn it back in school but unfortunately I’m not well versed in it, it’s been so long. The South, where about 28% speak it, the Midwest 27%, which have the highest shares, while the Northeast 21% has the lowest share. Arabic has more than 1.35 million speakers here.
Love you guys! Those soldiers were guarding the grave of the unknown soldier. You should watch a video about it. BTW only soldiers can be buried in Arlington Cemetery.
You were asking about Arlington National Cemetery. Any person who has discharge papers can be buried there free of charge. They don't have to be combat wounded, however I would imagine most of those buried there are from earlier wars.
On the state level. I used to see the Govenor of Nevada of all the time at the grocery store shopping. Politicians are just regular people at the end of the day
I love this video and your reaction to it! It is very common for schools to take a trip to Washington DC and take a tour just like this one. I was a child then, but seeing again just now, was so much more meaningful seeing it from your perspective!
Salazar's parents are Cuban exiles and she was born here in Florida as an American citizen and now is a congresswoman. Politics wise I don't agree with her on much beyond loving this country.
Says more about you that you wouldn't agree with the Party that actually supports TRUE asylum, rather than the one that virtue signals off of the one that supports fake asylum claims. If every one of these asylum seekers under Biden were Cuban, Biden would have shut it [the border] down immediately, because y'all know Cubans know exactly what's going on here under Democrat control and power. You're taking this country in the exact same direct as Cuba. Single-Party Communistic Rule.
She represents a Congressional district in Florida, which has a lot of Cuban refugees, and a large Hispanic community. That building is called the "Rotunda".
SPR scene takes place at The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in France is located in Colleville-sur-Mer, on the site of the temporary American St. Laurent Cemetery. There are over 9,000 American armed forces personnel buried there.
It’s not the same place as in that movie. In that movie the graves were in the American cemetery in Normandy. In this video that is Arlington National Cemetery
Yeah, Maria Salazar's parents were Cuban exiles back in the day. But I believe she was born here in the US. Although I could be wrong. I've heard her story a couple of times, but I forgot all the details.
WOW, Yoel & Mari's story is now on our country's official record! I have heard from a Cuban Revolutionary, in Florida, that the Cuban Revolution was a diverse group, but Castro seized power and got rid of other groups. I know very little personally, but this is something I have heard.
11:48 they are in the US Capital building, that's where Congressman and Senators work at. The Whitehouse where the President lives and works is down the street but you can't see it from where they are shooting the video. The other buildings you see are National Museums and other Government agencies offices.
Is he related to the journalist and TV news anchor Jose Diaz-Balart? He looks a lot like him, Jose has the best sign-off at the end of his newscast when he says, "...and thank you for the pleasure of your time.". He seems very sincere.
People in America come from all different backgrounds, but they can become American citizens and pledge their loyalty to this country and its ideals. The Representative was probably the daughter or granddaughter of Cuban immigrants, but she is an American. Your ethnicity, your religion, your language is not what makes you an American. It is your formal commitment to this country's Constitution, laws, and the democratic ideals that underpin the government. America is an idea.
@DennisRabidue that's not true. It's a bronze statue called the Statue of Freedom and was sculped in Rome in 1863. It has nothing to do with native American Indians. Google it instead of making stuff up.
The building with the large dome and the statue on top is the Capital Building. It Houses Congress. On one side of the building is the House of Representatives and the other side of the building is the Senate. The tall spire is the Washington Monument named after the first U.S. President. The Capital Building sits on one end of the Mall, The Washington Monument is in the middle of the Mall and the White House is at the other end of the Mall. The Statue on top of the Capital Building is the Statue of Freedom. It faces east because that is the main entrance to the building.
One small correction, the White House isn't on the opposite end of the Mall from the Capital Building, it's the Lincoln Memorial that's on the Mall's western end. The White House is located to the North of the Washington Monument, with the Ellipse Park and the White House South Lawn forming a sort of northern extension of the National Mall, directly across Constitution Ave. NW.
There's not a memorial for EVERY war that America has fought in, but many. The WWII Memorial is actually a fairly new one. It's only been there for about 20 years or so now. If I recall, there's some for WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and there might be one for modern conflicts. Not sure on that though. There was the Iwo Jima memorial over on the Virginia side of the Potomac River for a long time, but not a full on dedicated memorial for WWII until the 2000s. The Vietname memorial is split between two things. The Wall with all the KIA and MIA names on it, close to 60K of them. Which sounded like a lot for a post-WWII war, but that's nothing compared to what's going on now in Ukraine, with Russia itself losing well over 500K now in just a bit over 2 years of fighting.
Now that you've seen this...listen to the song, rich men north of richmond by oliver Anthony. North of Richmond means north of Richmond Virginia,which is Washington D.C.
He is at the Capital where the Senate, Congress and all other who run the country work. The president and his family live at the White House, so many people work everyday.
The graves is Arlington National Cemetary and there are many more like it all over the world. The US has lost a million soldiers in was and we do everything we can to remember them and what they lost.
It's The Capital Building at the beginning, not the White House. It is possible to tour parts of the White House also but due to limited spots it's hard to get in.
Washington, DC is beautiful, but as with every video I've seen of hers, every setting is just a backdrop for another video of her husband. It would be hard to make a video in DC and miss the buildings that mean so much, but darned if she didn't do a good job of showing barely anything worth seeing. The cemetary is Arlington National Cemetary, where members of the military who died while on duty are buried. President John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert - both assassinated, are buried there. The changing of the Guatd at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is a special event, with YT videos about that which you may like. And yes, DC is corrupt as hell, but information about people is trickling out so maybe there's hope for better things.
11:39 That is the Capitol Building, where Congress (the House of Representatives, and the Senate) meet. The White House is the home of the President and is a different building.
In America, the people are the government, we are under self-rule. We elect everyday people to represent us in congress. They are our servants including the President of the United States. We pay their salaries through taxes. We are governed, not by men, but, by the rule of law. Laws are established by congress, by we the people. This is how we are a free people.
You guys need to get your butts over here. if you get to western North Carolina I'll show you around the great Smokie mountains and the southern Appalachian mountains. Just dont feed the bears....🤔
Cubans are relatively a new population to the United States so you do see them speaking Spanish to one another. That will go away as the new generation rises (happens to all immigrant groups eventually) The whole notion that there is no official kanguage is over stated and a bit if propaganda. The reality is English us the language of the USA and pretty much the whole world.
No, no, this is the Capitol Building where Congress (the Law Makers) conducts business. The White House is where the President (Executive Branch) resides. It's easy to go into the Capitol building, you just go in. I did it back in 1989 while on vacation to DC. We also had a personal friend and former colleague of my mother's who was a Congressman at the time, so we got to go hang out in his office for a bit. But getting a Tour of the White House is a totally different thing. You actually have to have a few connections in Congress or special priviledges to get a Tour there. Why? Well, for the simple fact that security around the the Presideng is a whole different animal, righ? There's 535 members of Congress (435 Congressmen & 100 Senators) but just one President at any given time. So they have to vet vistors to the WhitecHouse a lot more carefully than people just strolling into the Capitol on any given day. Now, that's not to say that Marie and Yoel couldn't have gotten tickets to a White House tour from the likes of Salazar or those other guys, but perhaps on such short notice, they weren't able to.
I know. It was corrupt back in the 60s. Now it is full on tyrannical. Soon we may need to abandon the 1st and take up the 2nd. The French had cake, we can feed Pelosi ice cream.....😮
A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE 2 MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES IN THE USA The two parties have factions within each of them that support slightly different agendas. REPUBLICAN PARTY This party is the more Right-leaning party. It has 3 factions: 1 Mainstreet Republicans [This is where most Republicans would have been before 1980. However, the party has moved heavily rightwards since then. Now, this is the smallest faction, and may well die off. It is Center-Right on the political spectrum. It is a pro-business and moderately socially conservative faction that favors pragmatism and cooperation.] Examples: Senator Susan Collins [Maine], Senator Lisa Murkowski [Alaska], Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick [Pennsylvania] 2 Republican Study Committee [This is where most Republicans in the House of Representatives belong. It is fairly Far Right, however, they favor following the rules (usually) to obtain political goals. This faction is socially conservative, even so far as Christian Nationalist, and are pro-business.] 3 Freedom Caucus [This is an Extreme Far Right group that promotes disorder and works to dismantle the system. Democracy is not always respected. They have been the most supportive of Donald Trump. Many are openly racist and some have favored support for Russia.] Examples: Rep. Matt Gaetz [Florida], Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene [Georgia], Rep. Lauren Boebert [Colorado] Rep. Paul Gosar [Arizona] ** DEMOCRATIC PARTY This party is the more Left-leaning party. It has 3 factions: 1 Blue Dogs [This is the smallest faction that may well die off. It is Centrist with many having more socially conservative and economic policies than most Democrats. It used to be strong when there were White Southern Democrats, but there are so few these days.] Rep. Jared Golden [Maine], Rep. Josh Gottheimer [New Jersey], Rep. Mary Peltola [Alaska] 2 New Democrats [This faction represents roughly 45-50% of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. It is Centrist to Center-Left with strong socially liberal views. It is most associated with "Third Way" politics promoted by Bill Clinton (USA) and Tony Blair (UK). It is more pro-business than the Progressive faction.] Rep. Jared Moskowitz [Florida], Rep. Seth Moulton [Massachusetts], Rep. Abigail Spanberger [Virginia] 3 Progressives [This faction represents roughly 45-50% of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. It is Center-Left on the political spectrum. Political views in this faction resemble the Social Democratic parties of Europe, promoting national health care, addressing climate change, supporting human rights and having an extensive social welfare network for the citizens of the country. This is where the most support for labor unions and minority rights exists.] Sen. Bernie Sanders [Vermont], Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [New York], Rep. Maxine Waters [California]
@@elevenbravo1991 REPUBLICAN MAINSTREET PARTNERSHIP [The Partnership was formed following the 1994 United States House of Representatives elections in which right-wing Republicans were swept into power. The Partnership has described itself as a "broad alliance of conservative, governing Republicans". The Partnership is also affiliated with the Republican Main Street Caucus, a Republican congressional member organization that takes pragmatic conservative positions.] ** REPUBLICAN STUY COMMITTEE [Entering the 118th United States Congress, the RSC was the largest ideological caucus in Congress of either party. Although the primary functions of the RSC vary from year to year, it has always pushed for significant cuts in non-defense spending, advocated socially conservative legislation, and supported the right to keep and bear arms. The RSC was founded in 1973 by Paul Weyrich and other conservative activists to keep a watch on the House Republican leadership, which they saw as too moderate. The Republican Party's positions on social and cultural issues are in part a reflection of the influential role that the Christian right has had in the party since the 1970s. Most conservative Republicans also oppose gun control, affirmative action, and illegal immigration. Since the 1980s, opposition to abortion has become strong in the party. in the late 1960s and early 1970s, many Republicans were behind efforts to decriminalize abortion. As of the 2020s, the party derives its strongest support from rural voters, evangelical Christians and Latter-day Saints, men, senior citizens, and white voters without college degrees. The party has made significant gains among the white working class, Hispanics, and Orthodox Jews, but has lost support among upper middle class and college-educated whites.] ** FREEDOM CAUCUS [Members of the Freedom Caucus are typically considered a part of the MAGA movement and loyalists to Donald Trump. The caucus is positioned on the far-right of the political spectrum. The group takes hardline conservative positions and favors right-wing populist beliefs such as opposition to immigration reform. The group sought dozens of times to repeal the Affordable Care Act. It was established as a more conservative alternative to the Republican Study Committee. After the election of Donald Trump, it became what has been described as "more populist and nationalist". Most Freedom Caucus members objected to the counting of the electoral votes that formalized Trump's defeat. During the second impeachment of Donald Trump for incitement of insurrection, Freedom Caucus leadership and members demanded that Representative Liz Cheney, one of 10 Republicans who voted in favor of impeachment, resign from her role as chairwoman of the House Republican Conference. On October 30, 2017, Vanity Fair published an interview with John Boehner, who said of the Freedom Caucus: "They can't tell you what they're for. They can tell you everything they're against. They're anarchists. They want total chaos. Tear it all down and start over. That's where their mindset is."] ** BLUE DOG COALITION [The Blue Dog Coalition is a caucus of moderate members from the Democratic Party in the United States House of Representatives. The caucus was founded as a group of conservative Democrats in 1995 in response to defeats in the 1994 elections. In the late 2010s and early 2020s, the Coalition's focus shifted towards ideological centrism and pragmatic, constituency-based politics.] ** NEW DEMOCRAT COALITION [The New Democrat Coalition is a caucus in the House of Representatives of the United States Congress made up of Democrats, primarily liberals and centrists, who take a pro-business stance and a liberal-to-moderate approach to fiscal matters. Most members hold socially liberal views, though there is a wide array of views on such issues. The caucus has been described as being center to center-left. The Coalition supported "Third Way" policies during the presidency of Bill Clinton. The New Democrat Coalition supports free trade and the high-tech sector.] ** CONGRESSIONAL PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS [The CPC represents the furthest left-leaning faction of the Democratic Party. It was founded in 1991 and has grown since then, becoming the second-largest Democratic caucus in the House of Representatives. The founding CPC members were concerned about the economic hardship imposed by the deepening recession and the growing inequality brought about by the timidity of the Democratic Party response in the early 1990s. The CPC advocates "a universal, high-quality, Medicare for All health care system", living wage laws, reductions in military expenditure, a crackdown on corporate greed, putting an end to mass incarceration, supporting and implementing swift measures to start reversing climate change, immigration policies that are humane, and some form of reparations for the damage caused by slavery.]
DC is rough at night away from the secure areas it becomes more like the bad parts of Detroit and Chicago. Several chain store have moved out of certain parts of DC because of violence and theft just like downtown San Fran. Sad
@@djriddleandgmoney5930 It started when Trump was in and Biden has been fixing the problem faster than Trump caused if. This is a known fact, no need to debate.
@@ChitwoodMitwood Not sure where you got the political debate out of me saying it is unsafe? I do not remember mentioning or blaming anyone but glad you have your facts, but not sure why you are lashing out at me. I wish it was safe for everyone no matter who is in charge
The U.S. is made up of immigrants, granted there are the Native Americans from long ago, even though they still exist. There is no one set or kind of American we have to name a few Caucasian American, African American, Arab American, Mexican American, and Asian American. Sometimes the hardest part is to get to the U.S. once your hear you will have to put some time in here and need some money, but if citizenship is something you want you can get it. I don't know everything about becoming a citizen here, but I do know you have to live here for many years and it does cost some money for paperwork.
The small handful of countries the U S always seems to “have problems with” are the ones the rothsxhllds don’t own banks in…Cuba is one of the six. ❤️☀️
Yeah, well the problem is with their finger pointing leadership, not the people. The corrupt leaders are why Cuba suffers. Trust me when I tell you, Cubans are just waiting for that family to die out, they only care about themselves and always have.
Man, I love this channel, but I hate that they react to that bogus UA-cam channel. That UA-cam channel is run by scammers those two individuals are just fooling people, they’ve been living in the US way longer than they claim👎🏽. This little gimmick they got going got old very fast. People in Florida know about them very well for being fraudsters. I don’t know why UA-cam doesn’t take that channel down!😠. please reconsider reacting to their videos.
Uhh. Do you know what all the freedoms you are talking about and speaking freely about narrow down to. What makes America so great and give people their freedom is one thing. The freedom to read. Now you are certainly free to listen to someone read something to you. But you are not free to be ignorant and listen to what anyone tells you because it's what you do or do not want to hear. That includes any man of the cloth that speaks to you in your church. You are not free to listen to anything you want because of your moral standing or ideologies and then indulge yourself by communicating that onto your neighbor or your globe. You are watching propaganda by a corrupt piece of garbage by the name of Donald Trump and the Republican party. Sorry. Of course there will be people who disagree with me or agree with me. But that is our own ignorance if we don't walk into a library and read it for yourself. That's freedom. I'm sorry that you think that Cubans crossing the border of Florida differs from the illegal migrants and immigrants that you believe are invading our Southern border via Texas. Cuba? As I write this Putin is rolling up in Cuban Waters, as an invited guest. America doesn't negotiate with the enemy. But you personally are not our enemy and are welcomed here to read a book.

Question for the Brothers. Do you guys let them know you are civil engineers when you apply for the lotteries? The US needs people with skills. That's one of the ways my father was able to emigrate from Greece as there was a shortage of Doctors at the time in the US.
yes we do
Hi Brothers, just recently found your page and I am enjoying your videos very much 😊 come to Scotland we need skilled workers. And we are soon to become an Independent country. We are Scottish NEVER British and we don't want to be in this corrupt union with Engkand 🏴🏴🏴🏴 oh and Scotland is beautiful 😊🏴🏴🏴
@@HABIBIBROTHERS1 I didn't know you were trying to move to the US. You are the kind of people we WANT coming to America. You respect our laws and you are not jumping the border and coming here illegally. I am going to make some calls for you guys and see if we can help you. I liked you both from day one and I am going to make sure the right people are made aware of you both. I noticed other comments telling you to go to Scotland also. Scotland is a wonderful country too. America and Canada would be the top 2 options, but Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, France, Germany, Australia are awesome places too. Far better than where you live now!
I pray to God for you both. That you fulfill your dreams of living in a land of freedom and justice, and love. And that He keep you both safe.
America is not perfect. We are human, and make mistakes. The ideals to which this nation was built are what make us both loved and hated around the world. But one this is unmistakable, it is people like Yoel and other immigrants that REMIND us what most of us take for granted. It is THEY that infuse fresh blood into this nation, forging it into a better place for all its inhabitants. When we get back to judging a person on their actions instead of misguided beliefs. Bless you guys, I hope one day you get to visit us. EVERY person in the world deserve to be heard.
The US has second largest number of Spanish speakers in the world. Contrary to myth, there is no official language in the US, though English is the common language and what is taught in schools. In larger metro areas, particularly in the NE, FL, CA and cities like Chicago, there are many languages spoken. About 21% of Americans speak a non English language at home. Spanish is currently the most common.
The Tomb of the Unknown soldier, in Arlington National Cemetery, where you asked if the soldiers do that every day, is a memorial for soldiers who have not had their remains identified. Soldiers stand on guard in shifts. They guard it every day, all day, every night, all night. Rain, snow, heat, or any other weather. It is always guarded, those soldiers protecting it and honoring those who died. Since 1937, not a minute has passed without the monument being guarded. The soldiers who guard it are elite soldiers. Not just anyone is accepted for the duty of guarding it and all soldiers who guard it volunteer for the duty, to stand there in any weather to honor the unknown deceased.
Right after that, still at Arlington, you saw the individual graves of soldiers who are known and buried there. Not all soldiers are buried there. It is something that is applied for.
That's just not true. They dont stand gaurd in severe weather situations, like hurricanes.
@@LiteralCrimeRave "In 1937, the guards became a 24/7 presence, standing watch over the Unknown Soldier at all times."
"There has been a sentinel on duty in front of the Tomb every minute of every day since 1937."
"Snow, sleet, heat, wind and rain, they never give up the guard."
Those are DIRECT quotations from the Department of Defense website where they have a page giving information on it.
And just in case you want to say that it didn't say hurricane and want to imply that "never" applies only to the listed weather types instead of being absolute...
"The Sentinels of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier stand watch 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, in any weather."
ANY WEATHER. That is a DIRECT quote from the Arlington National Cemetery website.
"It doesn’t matter if the sun is shining, if a hurricane is passing through Washington, DC or if a Tomb Guard accidentally gets stabbed in the foot. There will always be an American soldier of the highest caliber “walking the mat” at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier."
That is from the Reserve National Guard website, specifically mentioning hurricane as a condition that does not prevent a guard from being present.
I don't know where you got your "information" from but those quotes, from highly authoritative sources relating to the subject, say it is wrong.
We embrace all those who come here legally and with love for our country! ❤
The statue on the Capitol dome is called Freedom.
Night tours of DC are amazing. The Vietnam Wall is always moving--meet so many people grieving family or brothers in arms. Our form of government strives to make manifest a more perfect union. Always moving forward (not backward). All who come here have the opportunity to make as much of their lives as they are able. No guarantees--the opportunity--if one is brave and motivated enough to take it.
You guys need to react to the movie "National Treasure." An action movie with a quest, a lesson is history, with a touch of humor. You won't be disappointed. This country does accept all people - but they must enter legally. Otherwise, it would destroy us to try to absorb everyone otherwise.
My dad is a civil engineer! He’d be more than happy to help you both!
The statue on the Capitol Bldg. - Per google...The statue depicts a classical female figure wearing a helmet, dress, and toga. Her right hand rests on the hilt of a sheathed sword, while her left hand holds a laurel wreath of victory and the United States shield. The statue combines three traditional personifications: Liberty, Minerva, and America.
I got to see DC last year. It was so cool! Even the train station was magnificent
Everyone who serves in the military is given a plot to be buried in if their family chooses. And yes we have beautiful cemetaries. They are very peaceful and beautiful. I visited a church cemetary called portage prairie that had graves from the 1800s in it. ❤
Your knowledge of other countries, their politics and important buildings so impress me. Obviously you both love to learn about other cultures, which is really lovely.
In 8th grade on our class trip to DC we got to sit in on an actual session in the Capitol, we had to be super quiet we were up in one of the side galleries overlooking the chamber. A lot of schools across America take class trips to DC so that kids get to see the legislative process and government in action but also to know our history, we go to all the monuments and museums. The two monuments they showed, WWII and Vietnam were so incredibly moving, The Wall makes a lot of people cry, the surface is so polished it's like looking in a mirror, it's haunting. The Lincoln Memorial really doesn't translate well on film, it is massive! being inside it's very echo-y and hushed, it feels like a sacred space, like being in a big cathedral. It's very peaceful. On each of the inside walls are carved his greatest speeches, his Second Inaugural Address and The Gettysburg Address. Honestly the Lincoln Memorial is one of my favorite places I've ever been, there's just something about it. The last time I was in DC was during the pandemic and everything was closed except for the monuments on The Mall.
The scene in Private Ryan was filmed in France. This is Alington National Cemetery.
2 of my favorite channels Habibi's and Yoel and Mari. T'all really understand America. 👍🙌🤙
*Y'all
The building with the dome, that they met the Congressman in, was the US Capitol Building. It contains both houses of Congress: the Senate (represents the States) and the House of Representatives (represents the people). The building with the big iron fence around it was the White House.
The statue on top of the building is Athena, the ancient Greek goddess of wisdom. She's facing east towards the rising sun 'seeking enlightenment'.
There are many people in Florida that have Cuban or Caribbean backgrounds. Spanish is spoken often in Texas, Florida, and the southwestern states. We have no official language, and people from all over the world bring their culture and languages here.
1981-82 I carried caskets and folded flags for the US Navy as a member of the US Navy Ceremonial Guard. Arlington National Cemetery, White House, Pentagon, etc. Then I was sent to Beirut, Lebanon so I could experience exactly how those caskets were filled. Or not "filled", if we couldn't find all of him.
First Aloha from Maui Hawaii. I think you should react to the "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier."
I second that!
Not the Whitehouse but the Capitol.
I hope you can visit the US and do videos from here. Bless you two!
It’s a democracy, they have to be kind and listen to the people, their salary is paid by our taxes and we vote them in. Without our support, they do not exist. If we don’t like a congressman we can vote them out the next election. Same for governors, presidents, local judges, sheriffs, mayors, etc.
We are not a democracy we are Constitutional Republic
I don’t know why people think “democracy” is a good thing for a country. The United States was never and hopefully will never be a communist country, that’s basically the same as democracy, if you really think about it. We are the Constitutional Republic. Democracy does not offer enough political stability, which can lead to a lot of problems.
@@RE-bg9ds That has a DEMOCRATIC voting system. Stop using MAGA code words 😐
@RE-bg9ds
LoL... Dude... Listen, man...
... My man, we are a constitutional parliamentary representative republic... With said representatives being directly elected by their constituents, registered voting citizens in their respective congressional districts- for a four year term as that districts' congressman/woman... OR directly elected by the voters from their whole state, if they are serving as 1 of 100 Senators.
The only real election that isn't via direct vote is that of the presidency; which is technically only finalized by the electors from each state's voting districts.
Yet, we are absolutely a democracy.
This rather recent, and entirely misguided & misinformed, partisan political rhetoric... all of this nonsensically fallacious propaganda that is trying to muddy that understanding amoungst the general public... that is just literally a misleading argument, and it is an undeniably one made with malicious intent. As, the only reason that the far right-wing extremists have been spewing that t talking point is to try and subvert the American publics' faith in, and understanding of, exactly that fact... That the United States is a democracy. Which we clearly are, a democratic, constitutionally established, parliamentary representative republic; one with democratically elected representatives... It is a single nation formed by, currently 50, states that are all joined in an inviolable, unbreakable, inseparable Union... A singular geopolitical entity made up of all 50 states + a myriad of territorial provinces... all of which is ultimately governed by a single federal governmental system - The specific model of that federal republic is formed of three separate but equal branches:
The Judicial/Legislative/Executive.
So, before you try to merely regurgitate the rhetorical spinnings of these extremist idealougues on the far right, my man... consider what it truly is that these sellouts are doing all of it for... they are lying, conniving, professional corporatist pundits, working for an agenda that limits individual American citizens' constitutional liberties... many of them nowadays are STILL striving to make real the lost cause of the long dead secessionists.
They are radicals, motivated by a fearfully racist bigotry... they want to disenfranchise as much of the nation's citizenry as they can successfully disqualify from participating in our elections. They are the un-American sellouts, those that sold their souls for a lucrative career of schilling for the agendas of the obscenely wealthy, aristocratic, elitist oligarchs', and they will say anything they are told to say, usually whenever they're on one of these corporate-owned cable "news" channels... but ALL of it is merely the propagation of corporatist propaganda.
It isn't about political parties anymore. It is about being a useful idiot for the corporate oligarchy or not being one... as that is all there truly is, now. They LOVE to divide the American people via employing a tactic of manufacturing culture war conflicts, and constantly keeping as many gullible rubes emotionally outraged at some made up nonsense or another, it doesn't really matter to any of them, THEY do whatever they please regardless of what the law may say... but some folks always fall for their well crafted propaganda campaigns, and I guess that some folks just always shall fall for it, too... unfortunately. 😮😢 ❤😊
The history of Cuba and the USA is a complicated one. Cuba was acquired as a protectorate of the USA after the Spanish-American War. Cuba gained independence in 1902, however, Guantanamo Bay, a small piece of the island, was leased to the USA military (and is still in use). The USA also retained the right to interfere in Cuban affairs. Soon after, the USA intervened in an uprising and appointed a governor for 3 years. In 1908, Cuban government was resumed, but the USA continued to interfere. In 1924, Gerardo Machado was elected president. He formed the island into a place for American tourists and promoted gambling and prostitution. He was eventually forced into exile in 1933. The new guy was overthrown the same year, eventually leading to the rule of the dictator Fulgencio Batista. [There was a lot of back and forth, in between]. In 1952, Batista suspended the country's constitution. He then aligned himself with the wealthiest landowners. He eventually resigned in 1958. Revolutionary forces took the capital in 1959. Fidel Castro legalized the Communist Party and carried out mass executions of Batista policemen, politicians and informers accused of torture and murder. He then nationalized the farmland to be used by workers. In 1960, President Eisenhower [USA] began planning for an invasion. It happened in 1961, under President Kennedy [USA]. The invasion, using Cuban exiles, failed. This then led to Cuba allowing Russian missiles to be placed on their soil. In 1963, the Communist Party solidified its power. From that time on, Cuba has sent military personnel all over the world to help liberation/revolutionary groups. The USA has held to an economic and travel ban on the country for decades. Russian military left Cuba in 1991. They then turned to China for support. Cuba has also been aligned with the dictatorship in Venezuela. Most of the wealthy families from the time of Batista moved to Miami [Florida], taking their money with them. They have been very anti-Communist and many aligned with conservative politics. Unlike most non-Europeans in the USA, the Cubans of south Florida tend to support Republicans. Most non-European Americans are heavily supportive of the Democrats, who are more likely to use the government to assist the poor and insure minority rights. That's a basic version of USA-Cuba relations.
It's an Eagle, not a man. If a country has a terrible controlling government, they likely blame the US, or do not like the US. Despite the flaws in our country, any country, I am grateful every day to be born in the US.
Congratulations to the Cuban couple who came to see Washington DC. , it's a good thing to learn for your self the truth about the USA!❤❤❤❤
I think that a lot of people fail to mention is that there are regions here where people speak Arabic, too! I used to be able to learn it back in school but unfortunately I’m not well versed in it, it’s been so long. The South, where about 28% speak it, the Midwest 27%, which have the highest shares, while the Northeast 21% has the lowest share. Arabic has more than 1.35 million speakers here.
Love you guys! Those soldiers were guarding the grave of the unknown soldier. You should watch a video about it. BTW only soldiers can be buried in Arlington Cemetery.
You were asking about Arlington National Cemetery. Any person who has discharge papers can be buried there free of charge. They don't have to be combat wounded, however I would imagine most of those buried there are from earlier wars.
On the state level. I used to see the Govenor of Nevada of all the time at the grocery store shopping. Politicians are just regular people at the end of the day
I love this video and your reaction to it! It is very common for schools to take a trip to Washington DC and take a tour just like this one. I was a child then, but seeing again just now, was so much more meaningful seeing it from your perspective!
You Guys should check out the video when they went to Puerto Rico. a us territory in the caribbean that resembles cuba before the revolution.
Yes, she is Spanish! Her last name is Spanish! That's why she was able to speak to him in his language! It is probably her first language too!
sound so aggressive
She’s not from Spain. Her family is from Cuba.
The first building was the Congress, The round room is what we call the Rotunda. Hope you have a chance to visit one day!
You guys are awesome!
America is well blessed
Salazar's parents are Cuban exiles and she was born here in Florida as an American citizen and now is a congresswoman. Politics wise I don't agree with her on much beyond loving this country.
Says more about you that you wouldn't agree with the Party that actually supports TRUE asylum, rather than the one that virtue signals off of the one that supports fake asylum claims. If every one of these asylum seekers under Biden were Cuban, Biden would have shut it [the border] down immediately, because y'all know Cubans know exactly what's going on here under Democrat control and power. You're taking this country in the exact same direct as Cuba. Single-Party Communistic Rule.
She represents a Congressional district in Florida, which has a lot of Cuban refugees, and a large Hispanic community. That building is called the "Rotunda".
Saving Private Ryan depicted a graveyard in France for fallen American soldiers.
SPR scene takes place at The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in France is located in Colleville-sur-Mer, on the site of the temporary American St. Laurent Cemetery. There are over 9,000 American armed forces personnel buried there.
It’s not the same place as in that movie. In that movie the graves were in the American cemetery in Normandy. In this video that is Arlington National Cemetery
Yeah, Maria Salazar's parents were Cuban exiles back in the day. But I believe she was born here in the US. Although I could be wrong. I've heard her story a couple of times, but I forgot all the details.
WOW, Yoel & Mari's story is now on our country's official record! I have heard from a Cuban Revolutionary, in Florida, that the Cuban Revolution was a diverse group, but Castro seized power and got rid of other groups. I know very little personally, but this is something I have heard.
That is the capital building when Representatives and Congress works. Its separate from the White House.
The statue on the dome of the Capitol is a Native American woman.
Hi guys. Have you ever listened to the story of are flag. The star spangled banner. It's why we are so proud of are flag. .
The governor of my state of Illinois came to my elementary school and helped us plant trees in the ground. 😂😂😂
11:48 they are in the US Capital building, that's where Congressman and Senators work at. The Whitehouse where the President lives and works is down the street but you can't see it from where they are shooting the video. The other buildings you see are National Museums and other Government agencies offices.
What's more interesting is that Congressman Diaz-Balart is the nephew of Fidel Castro.
😳
Is he related to the journalist and TV news anchor Jose Diaz-Balart? He looks a lot like him, Jose has the best sign-off at the end of his newscast when he says, "...and thank you for the pleasure of your time.". He seems very sincere.
@@Nomad-vv1gk They’re related.
Yes she's speaking Spanish. She's from a highly Cuban speaking district in Florida
Soldiers graves yes.
People in America come from all different backgrounds, but they can become American citizens and pledge their loyalty to this country and its ideals. The Representative was probably the daughter or granddaughter of Cuban immigrants, but she is an American. Your ethnicity, your religion, your language is not what makes you an American. It is your formal commitment to this country's Constitution, laws, and the democratic ideals that underpin the government. America is an idea.
The statue on the capital is a native American
@DennisRabidue that's not true. It's a bronze statue called the Statue of Freedom and was sculped in Rome in 1863. It has nothing to do with native American Indians. Google it instead of making stuff up.
We do learn other languages in Jr high and high school
The building with the large dome and the statue on top is the Capital Building. It Houses Congress. On one side of the building is the House of Representatives and the other side of the building is the Senate. The tall spire is the Washington Monument named after the first U.S. President. The Capital Building sits on one end of the Mall, The Washington Monument is in the middle of the Mall and the White House is at the other end of the Mall. The Statue on top of the Capital Building is the Statue of Freedom. It faces east because that is the main entrance to the building.
One small correction, the White House isn't on the opposite end of the Mall from the Capital Building, it's the Lincoln Memorial that's on the Mall's western end. The White House is located to the North of the Washington Monument, with the Ellipse Park and the White House South Lawn forming a sort of northern extension of the National Mall, directly across Constitution Ave. NW.
Capitol* is the building, capital is a city
the cemetery is mostly WW2 soldiers
There's not a memorial for EVERY war that America has fought in, but many. The WWII Memorial is actually a fairly new one. It's only been there for about 20 years or so now. If I recall, there's some for WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and there might be one for modern conflicts. Not sure on that though. There was the Iwo Jima memorial over on the Virginia side of the Potomac River for a long time, but not a full on dedicated memorial for WWII until the 2000s. The Vietname memorial is split between two things. The Wall with all the KIA and MIA names on it, close to 60K of them. Which sounded like a lot for a post-WWII war, but that's nothing compared to what's going on now in Ukraine, with Russia itself losing well over 500K now in just a bit over 2 years of fighting.
9:20 shows you how seriously the average person took our country more than 10-20 years ago
Now that you've seen this...listen to the song, rich men north of richmond by oliver Anthony. North of Richmond means north of Richmond Virginia,which is Washington D.C.
He is at the Capital where the Senate, Congress and all other who run the country work. The president and his family live at the White House, so many people work everyday.
There was a seen in this video that you guys saw where a part of Forest Gump was filmed
The graves is Arlington National Cemetary and there are many more like it all over the world. The US has lost a million soldiers in was and we do everything we can to remember them and what they lost.
Saluto!
It's The Capital Building at the beginning, not the White House. It is possible to tour parts of the White House also but due to limited spots it's hard to get in.
in the usa there is no officia language, the common language most spoken is English in Spanish
Washington, DC is beautiful, but as with every video I've seen of hers, every setting is just a backdrop for another video of her husband. It would be hard to make a video in DC and miss the buildings that mean so much, but darned if she didn't do a good job of showing barely anything worth seeing. The cemetary is Arlington National Cemetary, where members of the military who died while on duty are buried. President John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert - both assassinated, are buried there. The changing of the Guatd at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is a special event, with YT videos about that which you may like. And yes, DC is corrupt as hell, but information about people is trickling out so maybe there's hope for better things.
11:39 That is the Capitol Building, where Congress (the House of Representatives, and the Senate) meet. The White House is the home of the President and is a different building.
The USA has no official language to be more inclusive. Though we should be required to be multilingual.
Please react to Yoel and Mary visit a shooting range.
In America, the people are the government, we are under self-rule. We elect everyday people to represent us in congress. They are our servants including the President of the United States. We pay their salaries through taxes. We are governed, not by men, but, by the rule of law. Laws are established by congress, by we the people. This is how we are a free people.
I wonder if you guys can do the lotteries for content creater. That would be cool if you guys can come ❤
This is the caption the White House is in the background in the video out on the porch
That is the tomb of the unknown soldier it is named by guards 24-7 365 days a year
You just need to be able to speak multiple languages. She might be an official. I am a regular interpreter there.
❤🤍💙
It’s called “the Capitol” 😊
You guys need to get your butts over here. if you get to western North Carolina I'll show you around the great Smokie mountains and the southern Appalachian mountains. Just dont feed the bears....🤔
Cubans are relatively a new population to the United States so you do see them speaking Spanish to one another. That will go away as the new generation rises (happens to all immigrant groups eventually) The whole notion that there is no official kanguage is over stated and a bit if propaganda. The reality is English us the language of the USA and pretty much the whole world.
I think you telling two Arab brothers from Algeria who speak excellent English that English is the language of the world.
American speak many different languages not only English
Where are you guys from? What country?
That’s the house of congress not the White House
No, no, this is the Capitol Building where Congress (the Law Makers) conducts business. The White House is where the President (Executive Branch) resides. It's easy to go into the Capitol building, you just go in. I did it back in 1989 while on vacation to DC. We also had a personal friend and former colleague of my mother's who was a Congressman at the time, so we got to go hang out in his office for a bit. But getting a Tour of the White House is a totally different thing. You actually have to have a few connections in Congress or special priviledges to get a Tour there. Why? Well, for the simple fact that security around the the Presideng is a whole different animal, righ? There's 535 members of Congress (435 Congressmen & 100 Senators) but just one President at any given time. So they have to vet vistors to the WhitecHouse a lot more carefully than people just strolling into the Capitol on any given day. Now, that's not to say that Marie and Yoel couldn't have gotten tickets to a White House tour from the likes of Salazar or those other guys, but perhaps on such short notice, they weren't able to.
It's Congress not the White house.
It's the Capitol building
I like Mari but for a woman from Cuba to say the US government is corrupt is laughable.
there is corruption though, it is by far better here than in cuba but there is absolutely corruption
Sadly every government is at the least a little corrupt
Laughable or not it is true, but which government doesn't?
I know. It was corrupt back in the 60s. Now it is full on tyrannical. Soon we may need to abandon the 1st and take up the 2nd. The French had cake, we can feed Pelosi ice cream.....😮
It's just a matter of perspective. I mean she isn't wrong. The US govt IS corrupt. Just not as corrupt as the Cuban govt.
Visit America its great but I wouldn't live there. Theres ups and downs to every place its really just preference.
A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE 2 MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES IN THE USA
The two parties have factions within each of them that support slightly different agendas.
REPUBLICAN PARTY
This party is the more Right-leaning party. It has 3 factions:
1 Mainstreet Republicans [This is where most Republicans would have been before 1980. However, the party has moved heavily rightwards since then. Now, this is the smallest faction, and may well die off. It is Center-Right on the political spectrum. It is a pro-business and moderately socially conservative faction that favors pragmatism and cooperation.] Examples: Senator Susan Collins [Maine], Senator Lisa Murkowski [Alaska], Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick [Pennsylvania]
2 Republican Study Committee [This is where most Republicans in the House of Representatives belong. It is fairly Far Right, however, they favor following the rules (usually) to obtain political goals. This faction is socially conservative, even so far as Christian Nationalist, and are pro-business.]
3 Freedom Caucus [This is an Extreme Far Right group that promotes disorder and works to dismantle the system. Democracy is not always respected. They have been the most supportive of Donald Trump. Many are openly racist and some have favored support for Russia.] Examples: Rep. Matt Gaetz [Florida], Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene [Georgia], Rep. Lauren Boebert [Colorado] Rep. Paul Gosar [Arizona]
**
DEMOCRATIC PARTY
This party is the more Left-leaning party. It has 3 factions:
1 Blue Dogs [This is the smallest faction that may well die off. It is Centrist with many having more socially conservative and economic policies than most Democrats. It used to be strong when there were White Southern Democrats, but there are so few these days.] Rep. Jared Golden [Maine], Rep. Josh Gottheimer [New Jersey], Rep. Mary Peltola [Alaska]
2 New Democrats [This faction represents roughly 45-50% of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. It is Centrist to Center-Left with strong socially liberal views. It is most associated with "Third Way" politics promoted by Bill Clinton (USA) and Tony Blair (UK). It is more pro-business than the Progressive faction.] Rep. Jared Moskowitz [Florida], Rep. Seth Moulton [Massachusetts], Rep. Abigail Spanberger [Virginia]
3 Progressives [This faction represents roughly 45-50% of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. It is Center-Left on the political spectrum. Political views in this faction resemble the Social Democratic parties of Europe, promoting national health care, addressing climate change, supporting human rights and having an extensive social welfare network for the citizens of the country. This is where the most support for labor unions and minority rights exists.] Sen. Bernie Sanders [Vermont], Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [New York], Rep. Maxine Waters [California]
Your bias is showing..
@@elevenbravo1991 I tried to be accurate and not biased.
@@elevenbravo1991 REPUBLICAN MAINSTREET PARTNERSHIP [The Partnership was formed following the 1994 United States House of Representatives elections in which right-wing Republicans were swept into power. The Partnership has described itself as a "broad alliance of conservative, governing Republicans". The Partnership is also affiliated with the Republican Main Street Caucus, a Republican congressional member organization that takes pragmatic conservative positions.]
**
REPUBLICAN STUY COMMITTEE [Entering the 118th United States Congress, the RSC was the largest ideological caucus in Congress of either party. Although the primary functions of the RSC vary from year to year, it has always pushed for significant cuts in non-defense spending, advocated socially conservative legislation, and supported the right to keep and bear arms. The RSC was founded in 1973 by Paul Weyrich and other conservative activists to keep a watch on the House Republican leadership, which they saw as too moderate. The Republican Party's positions on social and cultural issues are in part a reflection of the influential role that the Christian right has had in the party since the 1970s. Most conservative Republicans also oppose gun control, affirmative action, and illegal immigration. Since the 1980s, opposition to abortion has become strong in the party. in the late 1960s and early 1970s, many Republicans were behind efforts to decriminalize abortion. As of the 2020s, the party derives its strongest support from rural voters, evangelical Christians and Latter-day Saints, men, senior citizens, and white voters without college degrees. The party has made significant gains among the white working class, Hispanics, and Orthodox Jews, but has lost support among upper middle class and college-educated whites.]
**
FREEDOM CAUCUS [Members of the Freedom Caucus are typically considered a part of the MAGA movement and loyalists to Donald Trump. The caucus is positioned on the far-right of the political spectrum. The group takes hardline conservative positions and favors right-wing populist beliefs such as opposition to immigration reform. The group sought dozens of times to repeal the Affordable Care Act. It was established as a more conservative alternative to the Republican Study Committee. After the election of Donald Trump, it became what has been described as "more populist and nationalist". Most Freedom Caucus members objected to the counting of the electoral votes that formalized Trump's defeat. During the second impeachment of Donald Trump for incitement of insurrection, Freedom Caucus leadership and members demanded that Representative Liz Cheney, one of 10 Republicans who voted in favor of impeachment, resign from her role as chairwoman of the House Republican Conference. On October 30, 2017, Vanity Fair published an interview with John Boehner, who said of the Freedom Caucus: "They can't tell you what they're for. They can tell you everything they're against. They're anarchists. They want total chaos. Tear it all down and start over. That's where their mindset is."]
**
BLUE DOG COALITION [The Blue Dog Coalition is a caucus of moderate members from the Democratic Party in the United States House of Representatives. The caucus was founded as a group of conservative Democrats in 1995 in response to defeats in the 1994 elections. In the late 2010s and early 2020s, the Coalition's focus shifted towards ideological centrism and pragmatic, constituency-based politics.]

NEW DEMOCRAT COALITION [The New Democrat Coalition is a caucus in the House of Representatives of the United States Congress made up of Democrats, primarily liberals and centrists, who take a pro-business stance and a liberal-to-moderate approach to fiscal matters. Most members hold socially liberal views, though there is a wide array of views on such issues. The caucus has been described as being center to center-left. The Coalition supported "Third Way" policies during the presidency of Bill Clinton. The New Democrat Coalition supports free trade and the high-tech sector.]

CONGRESSIONAL PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS [The CPC represents the furthest left-leaning faction of the Democratic Party. It was founded in 1991 and has grown since then, becoming the second-largest Democratic caucus in the House of Representatives. The founding CPC members were concerned about the economic hardship imposed by the deepening recession and the growing inequality brought about by the timidity of the Democratic Party response in the early 1990s. The CPC advocates "a universal, high-quality, Medicare for All health care system", living wage laws, reductions in military expenditure, a crackdown on corporate greed, putting an end to mass incarceration, supporting and implementing swift measures to start reversing climate change, immigration policies that are humane, and some form of reparations for the damage caused by slavery.]
Trump says it is not safe to walk outside in Washington, more so at night. Glad they survived!
DC is rough at night away from the secure areas it becomes more like the bad parts of Detroit and Chicago. Several chain store have moved out of certain parts of DC because of violence and theft just like downtown San Fran. Sad
@@djriddleandgmoney5930 It started when Trump was in and Biden has been fixing the problem faster than Trump caused if. This is a known fact, no need to debate.
If the Donald says it, you can bet it’s his projection and not true
@@ChitwoodMitwood Not sure where you got the political debate out of me saying it is unsafe? I do not remember mentioning or blaming anyone but glad you have your facts, but not sure why you are lashing out at me. I wish it was safe for everyone no matter who is in charge
Lady Liberty is the statue on top of the Capital building.
It's called the Statue of Freedom and sculpted in Rome, 1863
Why so dark? Lincoln should be all lit up! Is it her camera? Also, this woman is horrible at recording anything correctly. So frustrating.
The U.S. is made up of immigrants, granted there are the Native Americans from long ago, even though they still exist. There is no one set or kind of American we have to name a few Caucasian American, African American, Arab American, Mexican American, and Asian American. Sometimes the hardest part is to get to the U.S. once your hear you will have to put some time in here and need some money, but if citizenship is something you want you can get it. I don't know everything about becoming a citizen here, but I do know you have to live here for many years and it does cost some money for paperwork.
She says they are corrupt and they give her applause? She needs to wake up .
We are never happy 😂. Right now Im somewhat happy but if the clown Trump comes back I will cry.
Good. We love liberal tears. 😂
If she doesn't like it here, THEN LEAVE@
The small handful of countries the U S always seems to “have problems with” are the ones the rothsxhllds don’t own banks in…Cuba is one of the six. ❤️☀️
Yeah, well the problem is with their finger pointing leadership, not the people. The corrupt leaders are why Cuba suffers. Trust me when I tell you, Cubans are just waiting for that family to die out, they only care about themselves and always have.
Man, I love this channel, but I hate that they react to that bogus UA-cam channel. That UA-cam channel is run by scammers those two individuals are just fooling people, they’ve been living in the US way longer than they claim👎🏽. This little gimmick they got going got old very fast. People in Florida know about them very well for being fraudsters. I don’t know why UA-cam doesn’t take that channel down!😠. please reconsider reacting to their videos.
I’ve always thought that but it’s just my opinion..
Did you know that fiedel castro tried out for a pitcher for American major league baseball.
Uhh. Do you know what all the freedoms you are talking about and speaking freely about narrow down to. What makes America so great and give people their freedom is one thing. The freedom to read. Now you are certainly free to listen to someone read something to you. But you are not free to be ignorant and listen to what anyone tells you because it's what you do or do not want to hear. That includes any man of the cloth that speaks to you in your church. You are not free to listen to anything you want because of your moral standing or ideologies and then indulge yourself by communicating that onto your neighbor or your globe. You are watching propaganda by a corrupt piece of garbage by the name of Donald Trump and the Republican party. Sorry. Of course there will be people who disagree with me or agree with me. But that is our own ignorance if we don't walk into a library and read it for yourself. That's freedom. I'm sorry that you think that Cubans crossing the border of Florida differs from the illegal migrants and immigrants that you believe are invading our Southern border via Texas. Cuba? As I write this Putin is rolling up in Cuban Waters, as an invited guest. America doesn't negotiate with the enemy. But you personally are not our enemy and are welcomed here to read a book.
