Two Florida Republicans are prompting the Obama administration to open an investigation into Beyonce and Jay-Zs recent trip to Cuba, arguing that the couple may have violated sanctions against the communist country.
Former House Foreign Affairs Committee chairwoman Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) and her colleague Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart sent a letter to the Treasury Departments Office of Foreign Assets Control on Friday, calling for an investigation into whether any laws were broken during the celebrities trip.

Glad Republicans are so devoted to the pressing issues that are affecting this country. At least they're shedding light on the fact that over a half century later, the Cuba boycott is utterly pointless.
