Hannon Secretario de Ia Ciudad 12A IDEA Estados Unidos DIARIO LAS AMERICAS DEL VIERNES 19 AL JU EVES 25 DE FEBRERO DE 2021 Aun exmer to, proceso contim} po2 ; Trump ElSenado anunciaaudi lalee I Y �L,apandatario, en elusion rr����=� P�S to P nos comicios de medio Camara Bajaconvpaau' investigue los sucesos del 4 VIENE DE PAG. 1A condenarlo por la su- puesta "incitation a la in- surreccion" que produjo el asalto al Capitolio na- cional el 6 de enero. El proceso politico duro cinco dias y cerrd con un alegato de los legislado- res democratas, durante el cual se acuso al man- datario de haber "traicio- nado" a Estados Unidos. Pero la defensa, por su parte, desestimo los car- gos como "absurdos" y declaro que las palabras del entonces presidente "no tenian como objetivo incitar a la violencia". Tras conocerse la de- cision, el exmandatario republicano, que esta ve- dado de las redes socia- les, celebro la decision por medio de un comuni- cadoy anuncio que su mo- vimiento politico Make America Great Again (Hater a Estados Unidos grande de nuevo), "acaba de comenzar". "En los proximos meses, tendre mucho que com- partir con ustedesy espero continuar nuestra increi- ble aventura por la gran- deza de America", anadio. Mas audiencias Quienes votaron por de- clarar culpable al expre- sidente insisten en su "culpabilidad", cuando se dirigi° a sus seguidores, frente a la Casa Blanca, minutos antes que asalta- ran la sede del Congreso, cuando legisladores se disponian a certificar la victoria de Joe Biden. De hecho, el Senado anuncia audiencias para finales de este mes ante la Comision de Normas de la Camara Alta. La presi- dents de la Camara de Representantes, Nancy Pelosi, tambien solicit° a Russel Honore, teniente general jubilado del Ejer- cito, que encabece una re- vision inmediata al estilo de la comision especial que investigo los ataques terroristas del 11 de sep- tiembre de 2001. "Debe haber una inves- tigacion completa de lo sucedido", dijo el sena- dor Bill Cassidy, uno de los siete republicanos que voto en favor de que Trump fuese declarado culpable. "Que. se sabia, quien lo sabia y cuando lo supieron, todo eso, por- que con eso se crean las bases para que esto no vuelva a ocurrir jamas", alego. Aunque el lider repu- j mandato en 2022 e incluso - e3olio fdtntl Cap blicano Mitch McConnell voto en contra de la acusa- cion en el Senado, planted mas tarde la posibilidad de presenter mas accio- nes legales. "No hay duda de que el presidente Trump es, de hecho y moralmente, res- ponsable", dijo McConnell, a lo que el exmandatario contest° con "necesidad de buscar otro lider repu- blicano en el Senado" De acuerdo a un son- deo realizado por la prestigiosa Quinnipiac University, el 45% de los encuestados cree que no se le deberia permitir optar por el puesto otra vez, mientras solo el 11% cree que deberia ser per- mitido hacerlo. "Puede que su popula- ridad haya disminuido, pero ciertamente no esta en desgracia con el Partido Republicano. Dos veces acusado, despreciado por los democratas y virtual- mente silenciado por las redes sociales ... a pesar de todo, Donald Trump man- tiene una solida position en el Partido Republicano", sefialo dijo Tim Malloy, analista de la encuesta. Encrucijada La idea de una comision especial que investigue los hechos gana terreno, apo- yada incluso por el sena- dor republican° Lindsey Graham, que es aliado de Trump. "Necesitamos una comi- sion como la del i1 de sep- tiembre para comprender lo que sucedio y asegurar- nos de que nunca vuelva a suceder", declaro el se- nador durante una entre- vista en FoxNews. Pero Graham aseguro en esa misma entrevista que el exmandatario sigue siendo, a su juicio, "la fuerza mas potence" del Partido Republicano tras superar el Segundo juicio politico en el Senado. "El movimiento Trump esta vivo y bien. Todo lo que puedo decir es que la fuerza mas potente del Partido Republicano es la del presidente Trump. Necesitamos el plus de Trump", afirmo Graham en declaraciones a la ca- dena televisiva. Graham advirtio de que nadie cuestiona que los re- publicanos deben traba- jar con Trump para ganar las proximas elecciones y anuncio que se reunira con el en Florida "esta semana "No podemos hacerlo sin eI", acoto, debido al apoyo en votos que tiene el ex- las presidenciales en 2024. En efecto, recordemos que el expresidente ob- tuvo mas de 74 millones de votos, exactamente 46.9% del sufragio en las pasadas elecciones presidenciales, frente a los mas 81 millo- nes que obtuvo Joe Biden, 51.3% de la votacion • El expre- sidente Donald Trump se mostr6 satisfecho antetos resultados del proceso.

Al fina so u- no Mientras menos tiempo lleve el reportero haciendo su trabajo, mas feroz es el acoso La abogada disidente Laritza Diversent no daba abasto atendiendo gratuitamente a decenas de families pobres cuyos derechos eran vulnera- dos por las institutions del regimen. Diversent y yo compartimos va- rios casos a los cuales les dimos cobertura perio- distica. Ya en 2010, las transgresiones de la ma- quinaria legal eran tan- tas, que los oficiales de la Contrainteligencia no podian dar respuesta a los damnificados. La ciudadania iba per- diendo el miedo. Las de- nuncias se ampliaron. No solo eran personas desalojadas de sus casas o que vivian en extrema pobreza. Se me acerca- ron muchas families que querlan denunciar casos de corruption, profesio- nales hastiados por los bajos salarios, incluso funcionarios de empresas y organismos estatales que simplemente deseaban brindar information. El telefono de mi case no paraba de sonar. Eran personas que deseaban contarme sus historias. Acceder al bajo mundo, para conocer de primera mano como funciona el negocio de las drogas, prostitution, sacrificio ilegal de ganado vacuno recurren a contactar con los reporteros fibres. Te co- nocen por diversas vies. Ya sea por Radio Marti, la ile- gal antena de cable o porque en algun portal de Internet leyeron un articulo tuyo, en estos momentos muchos de nuestros compatriotas con respeto dicen:'Fulano es periodista independiente'. El aparato ideologico del regimen y los oficiales de la Seguridad del Estado lo saben. Al menos en mi caso, mas que acosarme o repri- mirme, optan por citar ami- gos, parientes y conocidos que suponen me brindan information. Los servicios especiales no reprimen por igual a todos los periodis- tas independientes. Suelen tener perfiles de cada uno. Conocen de antemano sus fortalezas y debilidades. Si publicamos en periedi- cos como El Pais, El Mundo, ABC, New York Times, Was- hington Post, Nuevo Herald Diario las Americas u otro medio comercial, el trato suele ser diferente. Prefie- ren centrarse en los cole- gas que escriben en sitios que la dictadura considera financiados por el gobierno de Estados Unidos. Mien- tras menos tiempo lleve el reportero haciendo su tra- bajo, mas feroz es el acoso. En la actual oleada repre- siva contra los periodistas independientes, se han en- saitado con plumes talento- sas que durante un tiempo laboraron en la prensa ofi- cial, como Elaine Diaz, Monica Barb, Abraham Ji- menez, Carlos Manuel Al- varez, Waldo Fernandez Cuenca y Camila Acosta, entre otros, intentando no solo linchar su reputation, sino tratar de que definiti- vamente se vayan de Cuba. Esos colegas, junto a Luz Escobar, brillante re- portera de 14yMedio, in- fluencers y youtubers, como Ruhama Fernandez, Juammy o equipos de au- diovisuales como Palenque Vision, tambien son acti- vos en las redes sociales, una herramienta donde la intelectualidad contestata- ria supera por goleada a los manidos argumentos de su contraparte gubernamen- tal. En cualquier grupo de Facebook son habituales las criticas abiertas al regimen. Y se comparten los enlaces de las directas del artista visual Luis Manuel Otero Alcantara o videos de la re- presion policial en una cola para comprar alimentos • Quienes son el blanco LG. La nueva oleada represiva de la dictadura va diri- gida, fundamentahnente, hacia los comunicadores mas activos e influyentes en las redes sociales. De- cretos como el 37o, que impone multas de haste 3.00o pesos, por utilizer las redes sociales de una forma no acorde a los 'principios socialistas', no es mas que un intento de maniatar a periodistas, youtubers e influencers. Pero Internet es un potro salvaje dificil de someter. Despues de que publica- ron la lista de 124 profesio- nes que no podian ejercer los trabajadores privados, varios analistas del tema cubano consideran que, al no autorizar el regimen al periodismo indepen- diente, estaba lanzando el siguiente mensaje: to po- demos procesar y sancio- nar con afios de tercel. Cuando en 1995 comence en el periodismo libre, los oficiales de la policia po- litica utilizaban ese pre- texto: 'El periodismo no esta entre los oficios autori- zados a ejercer por cuenta propia'. Siempre respondia lo mismo: "No escribo en ning1tn sitio oficial. No hay ninguna ley en el mundo que me impida escribir en un blog personal o publicar en un medio internacional. Internet no se rige por las leyes de Cuba ni pertenece a ningtin gobierno". Desde 1999, con la apro- bacion de la Ley Mordaza, el castrismo prohibe el ejercicio del periodismo in- dependiente y puede san- cionar con veinte afios de prision a cualquier repor- tero o funcionario por de- terminadas declaraciones. Que este o no el periodismo en un listedo de profesiones autorizadas por el Estado me da igual. Hay derechos inalienables que no necesi- tan permiso de nadie. Escri- bir es uno de ellos.

Hace apenas unos dias. Pablo Iglesias y sus dipu- tados de Unidas Podemos (UP) optaron por no apoyar una propuesta de ley de su 'socio' Sanchez y el Partido Obrero Socialista Espanol (PSOE),queaboga por "pre- venir y erradicar cualquier forma de discriminacion y proteger a las victimas", destinada mayormente al colectivo LGTBI. y decidie- ron abstenerse por consi- derarla "insuficiente". Mas tarde, Iglesias y sus diputados de UP volvieron a romper filas con el PSOE y optaron por abstenerse ante la propuesta de los I separatistas catalanes Es- querra Republicana, que pedian una mocion para instar al Gobierno a nego- ' ciar la celebracion de un referendum de autodeter- minacion en Cataluna. aun cuando la Constitucion es- i panola exige un plebiscito nacional para contemplar cualquier separacion. Pandemia Con mas de 3.2 millo- nes de contagios y 67.000 muertes, en un pais que cuenta con 47.7 millo- nes de habitantes, la eco- nomia no logra levantar cabeza en medio de la in- certidumbre que ocasiona la persistencia de la pan- demia de coronavirus. No obstante. Espana co- mienza a ver la luz al final del tunel de su tereera ola de contagios y muertes, tras protagonizar un con- finamiento general a fina- les de la pasada primavera y otros dos a medias du- rante finales del verano y el invierno que aun no ha terminado. Ms Cataluna De esta region autono- mica tambien es la noticia de unas elecciones regio- nales que solo sirvieron para reforzar la mayoria de los separatistas en el parlamento catalan.

Hannon City Clerk 4A from the front page I ?iimtnilirrnIJ MONDAY f15RWn B 20r MIAMIHERALD.(OM FROM PAGE 1A FIU effective Monday, Febru- ary 15,"describing the mission as a "noble task" andteling them the suc- cess of the students and the university "depend upon it." "We are at the point where we have good sci- ence how COVID-19 can be prevented and at FIU we have taken every step and precaution to make sure that [the] uni- versity offers a healthy environment," he told the Herald in an emailed state- ment Friday. Some of the safety proto- cols the university has adopted include recom- mending frequent testing and hand washing, double facial coverings and social distancing. The school installed plexiglass barriers and new air filters. It ac- quired K9s to go through pudic spaces for quality control for cleaning. The university also cre- ated an app called P3, Panthers Protecting Pan- thers, and asks visitors to fill out a survey about symptoms before coming to campus. The school has received some vaccine doses from the state, but hopes to get more soon and keep vaccinating on site. POSITIVITY RATE FOR COVID CASES IS TRENDING DOWN FIU has two campuses, its main campus a111200 SW Eighth St. and its Bis- cayne Bay campus off Bis- cayne Boulevard and North- east 151st Street. Dr. Eneida Roldan, the CEO of the FIU HealthCare Network, said in an entail the positivity rate has de- creased in Miami -Dade to "considerably below 10%." Statewide cases have been declining from a peak in early January. On Sun- day, the Florida Depart- ment of Health's COVID-19 dashboard reported 5,436 new cases and 96 deaths, the lowest number in each category this calendar year. The state's positive test rate, 6.97% on Saturday, averaged 6.64% over the last week, down from 7.51% for the previous seven days. 1n Miami -Dade, the posi- tive ten rate on Saturday was 7.33%. For the week, the county's average daily positive test rate fell from 7.45% from Jan. 31 through Feb. 6 to 6.73% for Feb. 7 through Saturday, accord- ing to state records. According to FIU's COVID dashboard that tracks self -reported cases, 670 students, and 350 fac- ulty and staff have dis- cloud they got infected si nce March 12. Roldn also said "the incidence of B.1.1.7 is rela- tively low in our area." As of Thursday, Florida had 379 conf ed cases of the B.1.1.7 variant, also known as the "UK variant," ac- cording to the Centers for Disease Control and Pre- vention, the most cases of any state in the country. The CDC does not break Out the data by county. TOWN HALL TO ANSWER EMPLOYEES' CONCERNS The university adminis- tration held a town hall to answer any questions about Rosenberg's email last Wednesday. During the virtual event, Roldan told the approximately 1,300 employees who attended she has been safer there than at Pub6a sand 5 "Unless anyone is not going out at all and not interacting with anyone you will be exposed," she said. El pagnier Kay Hudson, FIU': senior vice president for human resources, said in an email to the Herald the move is part of the university's three-phase repopulation plan. During Phase 1 in the fall, FIU implemented rotation schedules on Oct. 5 to allow employees to come to campus at least once per week. Now it's transition- ing to Phase 11, and the purpose has become "to increase on -campus pres- ence," she said. Out of the 10,294 people FIU employs, 3,798 are staff, 1,826 are faculty and 4,670 are temporary em- ployees (including student assistants), according t0 Hudson. During the fall semester, about 68% of all faculty and staffpartici- pated in rotation sched- ules, which allowed them to be on campus at least once every week or two weeks. Starting Monday, FIU wants to expand that per- centage to 100%, asking faculty and staff members to return to either a daily rotation or a weekly one. During the town hag Wednesday, Carlos -Anto- nio Flores, executive direc- tor of operations and sys- tems at FIU, said the Uni- versity expects that employ- ees who work in cubicles in open -space settings can return to campus three days a week. People who have individual offices can start working from campus five days a week, he noted. "We are saying mt mini - um everyone who is able to physically distance should be on this campus three days of the week," Flores However, with a caveat: Hudson said they "under- stand that some of (the] workforce would not be able to" due to medical conditions or caring for others who are at great risk for contracting COVID-19, as well as for other reasons such as caring for children. "We do ask managers to continue to afford flexibil- ity," Flores said. HOW WILL STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF BE AFFECTED? Students won't be affect- ed because none of the classes will shift mid -spring semester, Hudson said, but they are welcome to come to campus for meetings or other activities. Professors won't be af- fected either, said Martha Meyers, the president of the local chapter of United Faculty of Florida, the un- ion that represents more than 20,000 instructors across the state, including about 1,370 at FIU. For faculty It is not mandatory," Meyers said. "What's being asked of faculty is for there to be a greater presence fon cam- pus]. Should faculty choose to do s0, we fully support. Should faculty want to go sit into their offices and do work, we fully support," she added. "We do have an agreement though that says they can't be forced to do so." The union and FIU signed a memo of understanding that allowed all faculty who could prove to HR they are personally vninemble to the coro- rus or care for some- one who is vulnerable to the disease to fill out an attestation form by Dee 17. Meyers said about 40%, or SOOto 600 members of bar the bargaining unit, attest- ed. But that doesn't mean they aren't going to cam- pus; it means they can't be compelled to do so, she noted. Faculty are "very happy that they are being protect- ed," she said. That's not the case with administrative staff. "There's an overall con- cern among the staff and administrators, and it doesn't seem to be getting across" to the university, said an administrative staffer who asked the Her- ald to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation . The staffer has been involved in a two days per week on -campus rotation up until last week, and said the one -week notice to increase that to five days per week seems "very rushed." "It is a very dramatic change that they decided to quickly lay out ... and with no explanation as to why we're going so fast. Why are we being forced to return?" the staffer said. "They keep saying it's safe but the samemehand a that everyone touches, go to the same bathroom that every- one goes to. There's no protection." The staffer said "it's still thousands of people on campus" and some won't follow the tides. The CDC updated its guidance for K-12 public schools on Friday, encouraging them to re- sume in -person learning. 1n its report, the CDC advised that with the proper safety protocols, schools can reopen. That won't change anything for Miami -Dade and Broward schools, according to the public school systems. Friday's CDC directive didn't touch on higher education, but Dean Col- son chair of the FIU Board of Trustees, told the Her- ald in an entailed state- ment he believes it's still relevant for FIU. "There's no reason why that logic wouldn't also apply ' n at tin,'he wrote. sty se Jimena Tavel: 786-442-8014, (thaveljimesa FROM PAGE 1A SCHOOL grades kindergarten though five, have died from COVID-19. So far, though, there hasn't been a positive case among stu- dents or staff members — except one over the sum- mer, when the campus was closed, according to Cole- man. Miami -Dade County Public Schools does not report positive cases at charter schools on its dta- trict-wide dashboard. Coleman needs to keep cases at zero. All of her 130 students have disabilities, and about a quarter of them are medically fragile. During this time, I've had at least four students who have been hospital- iud, two students who are currently in the hospital for surgeries," Coleman said during an interview in mid -January. "l serve the most signif- icantly cognitively impact- ed or medically impacted students in the district." Charter schools are tech- nically public schools, funded with taxpayer dol- lars, but they re operated by private organization. Early Beginnings, located near Jackson, is rim by United Community Options of South Florida, a nonprofit that supports people with disabilities in the region When schools shut down last spring to slow the spread of the coronavrus, the closures were especial- ly difficult for families of children with disabilities or severe medical conditions. Then came perhaps an even ougher dilemma: what to do when schools reopened in the fall. For the students at Early Be- ginnings, the stakes of going to school — and the stakes of staying home — are especially high. TEACHING FAMILIES ABOUT SPEECH AND OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIES While school shutdowns during the pandemic meant t a lot of parents had to try to be teachers, CO- VID-19 required many Early Beginnings parents to be speech therapists and occupational therapists, as well. "For our families, the biggest struggle was trying to find the balance oh 1 now have to thin my child at home, ... and may not have all the skills," Cole- man said. "A lot of our parents rely on us to pro- vide those academic skills, those life skills, because they don't necessarily know how to do the unique things a special education program does." For example, some dis- abled students as old as 8 are still potty -training, Coleman said. "They were in that pro- cess at school, and now mom doesn't know, or dad doesn't know, how to do it at home," she said. "So we had to figure those things t with our families, alongside them." Because of the school's special relationship with United Community Op- tions, Coleman was able to find a way to get her needi- est students help at home. The school received about 322,000 in funding from the federal CARES Act, an aid package that provided relief to schools, businesses and individuals earlier during the pendent - 'With that extra money, and some staffing said —Coleman said she no longer employs the same number of people for before- and after -school care or on -call shifts — she was able to afford at-home physical and occupational therapy for about 13% of her students. ASSISTING FAMILIES WITH REMOTE LEARNING TECHNOLOGY She said some behavioral herapists and home health ides were also able to ssist students with the ethnology required for virtual classes, "We want to make it equitable," Coleman said. "We talk with all of out families to let them know the resource [is available] — and to let them know our limitations." Now, about two-thirds of Coleman's students are back in face-to-face class- es, while the rest continue to Team virtually from home. Maria Isabel Otero chose to send her forth -grader, Gabriel Sanchez, back to school. She fond it nearly impossible oil her (g her n's care and her full-time job. It was one of the worst times of the year. And 1 think it was the worst time for me in caring for Gabriel as a parent," Otero said. "You are always trying to find ways for them to ac- quire skills, which is a progression much longer than with any other chil- dren.... Imagine trying to do that when you have to meet the basic needs for school and for therapy," she said. Gabriel, 10, has the mre genetic disorder Bainbridge -Ropers syndrome. He is on the autism spectrum, non- verbal, not fully potty trained and has low muscle tone, so he struggles with physical activity. He re- ceives speech, physical, occupational and behavior- al therapy.

During that time, Otero would take videos of Ga- briel walking in Greynolda Park in North Miami Beach. She would then send the videos to his teachers, to show that he was keeping up with his physical educations lumping, for hint, is work. It's not something that he enjoys, as any other child," Otero said. "He oyes walking, and he loves a park that has a little hill. So we go up the hill, and then we sit down there and look at the park from that high." One thing that helped convince Otero to send Gabriel back to school: While he has struggled with social interaction in the past, Otero teamed that Gabriel has a "best buddy" at Early Begin- nings. That made it worth the risk For Gabriel, "school is more than what school is for a neurotypical child," Otero said. "He needs his school."
