THE COLD WAR IS BACK, BABY!

The Russians are flexing their muscles at us from the Caribbean as four Russian warships, one of them a nuclear-powered submarine, are now stationed in Cuba. The ships, experts believe, are here in part as a show of force after the United States gave the go-ahead to Ukraine to use US weapons inside of Russia.

The ships, a guided-missile frigate, an oiler, a seagoing tug, and that nuclear-powered submarine, were visible off the coast of Florida.

Having passed just 30 miles off of Florida, a four-ship Russian flotilla pulled into Havana today, led by a warship and submarine, both armed with guided missiles and greeted by a 21-gun salute. While the submarine is nuclear-powered US officials say there’s no indication it is carrying nuclear weapons.

Two American destroyers, plus two ships specially equipped with sonar for tracking the submarine, along with Navy patrol planes, even sail drones shadowed the flotilla as it made its way across the Atlantic into the Caribbean.

The Russian ships are expected to remain in Havana until next week before getting underway, perhaps for Venezuela. When they do, officials say, the US Navy will start shadowing them again.

Pretty cool stuff if you ask me; and while this sure is a flex by the Russians it’s pretty routine and I’m not worried about it. The last time we saw Russian warships in Cuba was 2019. As you heard the Pentagon Press Secretary say, “We of course take it seriously, but these exercises don’t pose a threat to the United States.”

I’ll leave this here for you:
