The statement refers to new sanctions targeting the Ortega-Murillo administration in Nicaragua.

In another post on the same day, Gimenez addressed the situation concerning Cuba, expressing relief over developments concerning the infiltration of alleged terrorists. "Los esbirros terroristas de la dictadura en #Cuba que se habían infiltrado en el país están huyendo a la isla como los cobardes que son." He conveyed his satisfaction with the success of their efforts and reiterated that such individuals have no place in the United States.

Later on April 18, Gimenez extended wishes to his followers in observance of Good Friday. "Have a blessed Good Friday to all those who celebrate!" This message served as a gesture of goodwill towards those observing the Christian holiday.
