Senators Rick Scott, Marco Rubio Hold Round Table To Protest Sale Of Conservative Spanish Radio Stat

South Florida’s Republican leaders are saying they fear a source of conservative voices could be lost with the impending sale of Radio Mambí.

“We have to make sure that there are always voices. That there is the opportunity always exists for voices that have a contrary point of view and a belief in conservativism,” said Republican U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio.

Rubio was joined by Senator Rick Scott, Congressman Carlos Gimenez, and other local Republicans to denounce what they believe is a take over of Cuban radio by Democrats.

“This is not a business transaction. They want to have a better product and put it out there. This is a effort to try and win elections,’ said Republican Senator Rick Scott.
The potential new owners told Local 10 News, that isn’t the case.

Maybe they’re afraid there could be a domino effect.







Or maybe they’re just big f’in babies.

They just don’t want any inroads into Latin community in Florida or anywhere else. How else can they spread lies about the Democratic Party. Don’t see how they can stop this purchase.

These two only represent themselves in the senate. Thoughts, prayers and tax cuts for the wealthy is all they've ever done.
