So I was waiting for when Trump would put #PuertoRico in his crosshairs. Dude never got over the fact that we clowned him for his paper-towel free-throw contest after María. Add to that his racist buddies shitting on Boricuas and now this—he just axed most of the fiscal control board. Let’s be real, that junta was colonial AF when Obama set it up, but now it’s a whole new game.

This ain’t happening in a vacuum either. You got the U.S. military running drills on bases in Puerto Rico, boats getting sunk off Venezuela with no receipts, and a president who’s always eyeing our beaches like prime real estate for his hotel empire. Hawai‘i déjà vu anyone?

Puerto Ricans gotta stay sharp and think about resistance now, not later. History shows us what’s coming.
