New York. He's in detention in Manhattan, awaiting a court appearance there. I question the wisdom of that - why arraign a communist in the second most communistic place in America? Could they not find either a friendlier place to turn him loose, or possibly, just possibly, a slightly less partisan place to try him? What makes them think that his "Fellow Travelers" won't just cut his ass loose on New York?
Or is that the plan? Turn him loose so that he can accidentally fall out of the airplane returning him home at 20,000 feet over the Caribbean? THAT would certainly solve one of the problems!
The usual suspects wasted no time in chiming in - Russia, Cuba, China, Iran, and of course the Venezuelan has-beens all have their noses out of joint and are spewing the usual vomit about "imperialistas" and "imperialist running dogs" and such. At least that part of it all makes me laugh! There's a bright side to everything, eh? Nothing like twisting the tail on a communist or totalitarian dictatorial regime just to hear 'en squeal like a pig!
