“This is the hill that I’m happily going to die on, because I didn’t start my life with two suitcases and two hundred dollars in my pocket for my American-born children to end up living in the same disaster that I had to run away from.”
On this week’s podcast, I sat down with Mailyn Salabarria.
Mailyn shares her powerful story of growing up under communist rule in Cuba and how it shaped her deep awareness of government overreach and loss of individual freedoms.
Drawing parallels between her past and current trends in the U.S., she discusses the rise of progressive ideologies in the education system, the erosion of parental rights, and the dangers of political indoctrination.
She recounts her emotional journey to the U.S. as a refugee and offers a sobering warning about the slow creep of tyranny through bloated bureaucracy and unchecked power. She urges people to reclaim personal responsibility, educate the next generation on the value of freedom, and explore ways to reduce dependence on the state.
Enjoy the conversation.
