A trio of Cuban American House Republicans recently released a video where they likened President Biden's proposal to transform the Supreme Court to tactics employed by infamous Latin American autocrats. The trio, consisting of Florida GOP Reps. Maria Salazar, Mario Diaz-Balart, and Carlos Gimenez, expressed strong opposition to Biden's plan, drawing parallels to former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez and current President Nicolás Maduro.
In the video, Salazar criticized Biden's proposal as 'outrageous' and contrary to the American system's exceptionalism. Diaz-Balart emphasized the importance of the Supreme Court in upholding the rule of law and democracy in the United States, warning that any attempt to alter its structure posed a significant threat to democracy and freedom.
