Multiple recent reports show that horse‑drawn carts have become a common form of transportation again in many Cuban cities, and the reason is exactly what you said: the economy has deteriorated so badly that buses, fuel, and basic services have broken down.
The search results give us three strong pieces of evidence:

🚍 1. Public transportation has collapsed
A January 2025 report from Cienfuegos states that state buses are “virtually non‑existent,” forcing people to rely on horse‑drawn carriages for everyday travel.

⚰️ 2. Even funerals are using horse carts
A November 2024 article shows families having to bury loved ones using horse‑drawn carts because the funeral system has collapsed and vehicles aren’t available.
This is not cultural — it’s economic desperation.

🚐 3. Horse carts are now a major transport sector
Horse‑drawn carriages are widely used in both rural and urban areas as cheap, fuel‑free transport. They’re used for:
• Commuting
• Moving between towns
• Replacing missing buses
• Carrying goods
• Even tourism in some cities
The travel agency description confirms they’re common in cities like Havana and Santiago, partly because they’re inexpensive and don’t rely on fuel.

Why Cuba’s Economy Has Become a Disaster
The sources paint a picture of a multidimensional collapse — economic, social, infrastructural, and demographic. Here are the core drivers:

⚡ 1. Energy Crisis & Nationwide Blackouts
Cuba’s power grid is old, failing, and under‑funded, and the country cannot afford enough imported oil to keep it running.
This has led to repeated nationwide blackouts, including a full‑island outage lasting nearly 24 hours.
Blackouts cripple:
• Transportation
• Refrigeration and food storage
• Hospitals
• Industry
• Daily life
This alone pushes people back toward pre‑industrial solutions like horse carts.

💸 2. Runaway Inflation & Currency Collapse
Inflation is described as “chronic” and among the worst in Latin America.
Food prices — rice, eggs, potatoes — have risen sharply, far beyond official numbers.
The peso has lost so much value that:
• Salaries are meaningless
• Savings evaporate
• People can’t afford fuel or transport
• Bartering and informal markets dominate

📉 3. Shrinking Economy & Prolonged Recession
Cuba is in a long-term economic contraction, described as the worst since independence in 1898.
Forecasts show:
• –1.5% GDP decline in 2025
• Near-zero growth in 2026
This is not a temporary downturn — it’s structural collapse.

🏭 4. Collapse of Productive Capacity
Factories, farms, and infrastructure are deteriorating.
One report describes abandoned industrial sites as symbols of the “deterioration of the national productive apparatus”.
This means:
• Less food
• Less fuel
• Fewer goods
• More shortages

🧳 5. Mass Migration & Population Decline
Cuba is experiencing its largest exodus since the 20th century, with population dropping to around 9.7 million and possibly lower.
When hundreds of thousands of working‑age people leave:
• Labor shortages worsen
• Skilled workers disappear
• The tax base collapses
• Services break down

🏛️ 6. Government Mismanagement & Lack of Reform
Multiple sources emphasize that the crisis is worsened by:
• Indecision on economic reforms
• Centralized control
• Inefficient state enterprises
• Failure to modernize post‑Castro
Even Cuban economists argue that without deep, coherent reforms, the crisis will continue.

🌍 7. External Pressures (Sanctions, Tourism Collapse)
While internal mismanagement is central, external factors also matter:
• U.S. sanctions limit access to credit and fuel
• Tourism — a major revenue source — has not recovered
• Global fuel prices strain the budget
These pressures worsen an already fragile system.

🐎 So why horse carts?
Because the combination of:
• Fuel shortages
• Bus system collapse
• Blackouts
• Inflation
• Infrastructure decay
…has made motorized transport unreliable or impossible.
Horse‑drawn carts require no fuel, minimal maintenance, and can operate during blackouts — so they’ve become a fallback.

As alarms continue to blare concerning massive fraud in Minnesota’s Somali community, some federal TSA agents are now revealing details of how Somali men have been flying potentially billions of dollars out of the U.S. inside their carry-on luggage in recent years, with no one stopping them.

Liz Jaksa, a former TSA agent who worked at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport from 2016 to 2021, recently spoke to Liz Collin of Alpha News, as Collin noted the practice “sounds like something out of a spy movie – people going through security and getting on planes with suitcases filled with millions of dollars in cash.”

Jaksa replied: “I’ve seen a lot of things but the most shocking is exactly that. I saw suitcases filled with millions of dollars cash, and the couriers were always Somali men traveling in pairs. And they got through the [security] checkpoint. It just really absolutely blew my mind the first time you open a suitcase and see millions of dollars of cash.”

“Typically what would happen,” Jaksa explained, is a law-enforcement officer would come, check their credentials … but their IDs were always documented and probably their plane tickets as well.

“So there is a trail of that out there, and I would believe with all the cameras at the airport, that if they started there, they could probably find each and every individual that brought money through the checkpoint.”

But it wasn’t just money making its way out of America, the former TSA agent revealed.

“There was another instance,” she said, “again a Somali man, that had a carry-on luggage filled with brand-new passports, and he was allowed to get through the checkpoint. So where he went with those passports is anybody’s guess.

“I don’t know how my colleagues felt about it,” Jaksa added. “Since all this fraud came out, the connection’s been made. I didn’t feel good about it then and now it certainly all makes sense.”

When asked if there were any truth to allegations the cash was funneled to the Islamic terrorist group Al-Shabaab, Jaksa responded: “Absolutely. Knowing what I know now, absolutely, there’s no question in my mind that that money went to Al-Shabaab.”

In 2018, Fox 9 TV reported that “in 2017, more than $100 million left MSP in carry-on luggage.” It’s been reported that during a five-year period, more than $1 billion left the United States by this method.

Collin also spoke with Jeremy Christenson, a former Homeland Security Investigations agent who said he tried blowing the whistle on the bulk-cash smuggling to no avail.

“Personally, myself, I did call the U.S. attorney’s office, and tried to get a criminal referral for bulk-cash smuggling, explaining I believe this is nefarious money,” he said. “It’s going out. It’s from illegitimate sources, and I was politely told no, and they’re doing everything legal. They’re money couriers and they’re registered.”

Christenson added: “I don’t buy it. Illegal money is still illegal money.”

“We just documented it for years. I don’t know the totality of the documentation because I only responded I believe three times myself personally. But our agents responded numerous times to the airport for these calls and we documented it all.”

Collin also reported: “Recently a former TSA agent wrote in a letter, he said about how his training officer said it was legal, nothing out of the ordinary. He also wrote to us to say that his training officer said: ‘The two men are runners in which they ship U.S. currency overseas and its money obtained from daycare centers.'”

The exodus of American cash is apparently continuing to this day.

On Tuesday, LibsofTikTok posted: “I just received a message from a TSA agent in Phoenix who tells me a Somali man with a Minnesota DL (driver’s license) flies through Phoenix every 7-10 days with a suitcase of around $250k cash. He told agents that families in Minnesota send cash back home to Sudan and Somalia through Dubai and he is a registered courier.

COVID-19 mRNA Jab Is A Deliberate/Pre-meditated Sterilization/De-Population Weapon System That Has Killed Over 30 Million People Worldwide, Will Continue To Create Untold Devastation For Generations

The former Pfizer VP Dr. Michael Yeadon just released a video explaining how the Covid injections were bioweapons aimed at maiming, slaughtering, and sterilizing the human population. Alex Jones breaks down the explosive video below:

'Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson AstraZeneca. So I knew by the middle of 2020 these were designed to cause injury. How much I didn’t know, I still don’t completely know. But this expert is telling you that they were designed to cause injury.”

Partial transcript (h/t @SenseReceptor):

“The really important thing I need to tell you about, because this comes from the core of my training, and then decades of application of looking for potential toxic vulnerabilities in a medicine. It was in the core of my training to look out for molecules and components that were picked, up for good reasons to accomplish some medicinal aim, but might have toxic liabilities.”

“The first one is we were told that these molecules were gene sequences that encoded something called spike protein. The spike protein, we were told, was on the outside of this virus. Now, I don’t agree with that, but this is what we were told. A cartoon like a sphere with spikes coming out of it. We were told these vaccines encoded the protein, the spike protein that sat on the outside of these viruses. And this would train your immune system to fight it off.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, is a really important concept in immunology. It’s taught to every person who has a training in immunology, as I did in the first lesson. What allows your body to treat itself kind kindly, but to go to war if something untoward is discovered in your body? And the concept is self, non self or foreign? My body is healthy right now. My immune system that is surveilling all parts of my body is at peace with itself because everything it encounters is known to it to belong to Mike Yeadon—itself.”

“If you inject me with a gene sequence that will make my body manufacture a foreign protein that isn’t me, that is a viral protein, my body, every cell in my body that follows that instruction will signal to my immune system that I have been attacked. And my immune system goes to war, attacks and kills every cell that complied with that instruction. And that is what has happened, ladies and gentlemen, to every cell in every tissue, in every person who has been thus injected.”

“The toxicity that you would experience varies tremendously because some people would take it up efficiently, copy it efficiently, make the protein for a long time, And I’m afraid those people are mostly dead. Other people took it up poorly, transcribed it poorly, and only briefly, and those people are alive, and then there’s every continuity in between.”

“But that point that, if you inject an instruction that makes your body make a foreign protein that is not self, your immune system will attack it. Ladies and gentlemen, you know this. This is the principle of tissue matching in organ transplantation. This is the principle behind failed tissue transplant, organ rejection. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the basis behind autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and many others, and neurological diseases where you, your body destroys itself.”

“That is the first principle that was designed into every company’s molecule. Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson AstraZeneca. So I knew by the middle of 2020 these were designed to cause injury. How much I didn’t know, I still don’t completely know. But this expert is telling you that they were designed to cause injury.”

“The second really important point to tell you about is what was encoded in these gene based vaccines. Alleged, vaccines is spike protein. I didn’t know what spike protein was, it was new to me. But it’s the spikes on the outside of this alleged virus that I don’t think is real. I could find proteins like it. And I found all of them were known to be toxins like neurotoxins, cardiotoxins and things that would prompt blood coagulation.”

“So again, the question, why would you encode in your helpful medicinal product something that when expressed in your body would harm you? That’s the second thing. There is a third one, which is when I discovered it, late in 2020 or early 2021, I have to say, I cried.”

“Two of the products made by Pfizer Moderna were formulated. Every medicine is formulated. You’ll be familiar with a tablet, might be film coated or dry. It might be a capsule of various sizes. It could be a liquid for injection, an inhaler. All of these. You have the active principle, but it’s surrounded and protected with something that helps it do its work, hopefully beneficial work. Two of these products will were wrapped in something called lipid nanoparticles or LNPs.”

“Lipid is fat. Nano means tiny particle, means little blobs. So they were wrapped in lipid nanoparticles. And I looked them up and I thought that’s quite interesting. They had been used before in certain oncology drugs. But here was the thing. As a toxicologist, when I started researching, I thought these things are known to be toxic. And the further I explored here is the shocking thing. Lipid nanoparticles, every one of them tested is known to promote the uptake of their payload, whatever they were protecting, into the organs inside your abdomen, what’s called the visceral organs and most prominently, liver and your ovaries.”

“So, ladies and gentlemen, the person who picks lipid nanoparticles to formulate these materials knew professionally that when it was injected into women and girls, this material would travel around their body and concentrate in their reproductive organs. And then it would do those two things I just described. It would be expressed and your body would recognize it as foreign, and kill those cells.”

“It would, when expressed, cause toxicity directly to those cells. And I ask you, ladies and gentlemen, what possible motivation could you have for doing that when you could have picked half a dozen other means of protecting the drug? And I have to say, at that point, I knew deeply in my heart that the first two observations I made weren’t just like mistakes or things, they would ride the risks.”

“These three things together told me someone got in a room, someone like me, and said, Dr. Yeadon, design injections that will injure, kill, and reduce fertility in the people you give it to. And design it so that it won’t kill everybody, it won’t injure everybody. But if we give it to enough people, over time, it will lower the fertility and their health and reduce population. And this is what I have watched happen all around me for five years, since that moment.”

On Tuesday during a cabinet meeting President Donald Trump indicated that he may be seeking an end to the federal income tax. As former special agent of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Joseph Banister has exposed, the federal income tax violates multiple amendments in the Bill of Rights. In 2013 Kurt Nimmo detailed on Infowars how the IRS violates the Fourth Amendment. Numerous commentary pieces and deep dive analysis articles have revealed the federal income tax to be one of the darkest financial ploys in history.

“I believe that at some point in the not-too distant future, you won’t even have income tax to pay,” Trump said. “Because the money we’re taking in is so great and it’s so enormous that you’re not going to have an income tax to pay. Whether you get rid of it or just keep it around for fun or have it really low, much lower than it is now, but you won’t be paying income tax.”

This agenda of Trump’s is not new. During his inaugural address Trump said, “Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens. For this purpose, we are establishing the External Revenue Service to collect all tariffs, duties, and revenues. It will be massive amounts of money pouring into our Treasury, coming from foreign sources.”

Trump also touched on this topic during his interview with Joe Rogan.

Infowars reported how then-President-elect Trump floated an “External Revenue Service” to collect tariffs from other counties.

In 2015 Infowars reported how President Trump planned to significantly reduce the income tax.

In 2017 Infowars reported how Rep. Devin Nunes pushed to end the income tax.

“We are getting rid of the income tax. We are doing something that hasn’t been done in 100 years. We are moving towards a consumption system, to a cash flow system,” Rep. Devin Nunes told the FOX Business Network’s Stuart Varney.

Modernity.News detailed the recent moves by the Trump administration which may help replace income tax:

Now, with tariffs already raking in hundreds of billions—up 250% from last year—the numbers are backing him up. Income tax hauled in about $2.7 trillion in fiscal 2025, but Trump’s team projects tariffs and foreign investments could eclipse that, especially with pledges like Japan’s $650 billion, South Korea’s $350 billion, and the EU’s $950 billion pouring into U.S. plants and jobs.

Recent reports highlight how this fits into broader reforms, including the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” which promises huge tax refunds and real wage hikes in 2026. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent boasted at the same meeting: “In 2026, we are going to see very substantial tax refunds in the First Quarter… We’re going to see real wage increases. I think next year is going to be a fantastic year.

I Was Tausret: A Past Life Discovered Through The Akashic Records by Aidan Gregory | eBook | Barnes & Noble®

Before I knew my name, I knew the weight of a crown.

I envision the sun above me as supreme, a molten god I once prayed to, and beneath my feet lies a palace floor carved with symbols I haven't seen in this lifetime, yet somehow understand.

I know this place.

A roar rises around me: thousands of voices chanting a name I have not heard in centuries. My name. The air trembles with devotion, with fear, with destiny. The golden crown weighs heavy, but heavier still is the certainty that something catastrophic is coming. 

I remember the rise of my kingdom, the fall. Not as history, not as myth, but as lived truth. Love. Victory. Fire. Betrayal. A blade glinting in torchlight. 

I was Queen. I was Pharaoh.

My heart hammers.

Because now I'm sure of it, these aren't dreams, fantasies or stress induced hallucinations. They're memories. Echoes. Warnings.

And my past life, the one buried beneath thousands of years of shifting desert, is rising again. The truth that is ready to be echoed into existence, once and for all. 

The Department of Homeland Security released a video advertisement for illegal aliens “looking for the perfect holiday gift,” promoting the CBP Home App as a way to leave America for free and “get home for the holidays.”

“The CBP Home App is offering illegal aliens the best Cyber Monday deal of the season. Fly home for FREE and receive a $1,000 exit gift,” the official DHS 𝕏 account wrote.

The retro-style advert touts the app as “free” and “fast” with users receiving “a $1,000 stipend.”

“So, don’t delay. Join the two million illegal aliens who have already left. Download the CBP Home App today and get home for the holidays,” the narrator states.

The Trump administration continues trolling and triggering leftists with viral social media posts.
