The Mexicans don’t like President Trump’s currently delayed tariffs, but they really hate what he said about their government’s collusion with the drug cartels. The White House fact sheet announcing imminent tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China said, by way of justifying the action, that “the Mexican drug trafficking organizations have an intolerable alliance with the government of Mexico.” This charge created a furious reaction in Mexico. “We categorically reject the White House’s slanderous claim,” President Claudia Sheinbaum posted on X, “that the Mexico government has alliances with criminal organizations.” Mexico’s governors chimed in with a joint statement: “We energetically condemn the accusations that suggest there is a link between our government and narco-trafficking cartels.” And outraged headlines filled the newspapers.
President Trump’s newly appointed DEA chief told The Post in his first interview that he hopes to build a multinational “army of good to fight evil” in a no-holds-barred war against Mexican drug cartels.
Drug Enforcement Administration chief Derek Maltz said he has long pushed for the cartels’ recent designation as an international terror group.
“I don’t care what we actually call them. I care about holding them accountable for destroying our future generations,” Maltz said. “They have to be held accountable.
“We can’t just continue to arrest them in America, create indictments, do extraditions, because that’s not good enough,” said new DEA chief Derek Maltz.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. What we do need to do is teach these people how to fight for or live off their own lands. If they don’t want to or can’t it’s no longer our problem.
I used to admire and support Sanders and Warren but over time I’ve come to realize they’re frauds. Bernie with his “Millionaires and Billionaires” line and Warren with her “Fair Share” BS.
Reality was when my Company got the Trump Tax break we almost immediately got raises.
And the rich are rich on paper and their businesses are major parts of our 401K Retirements.
Unfortunately the WHO recently put out an Emergency 🆘 Medical update that TDS is an incurable condition. Their recommendations for temporary relief is to periodically scream 😱 and yell as loud as possible, cry and bang body extremities against the nearest wall.
This is the reason why the Government workforce should be shrunk. In the public sector with our Taxes we pay for many goods and services we don’t use. When unemployment is low is when the excess in Government should be transitioned out to fill vacancies.
Not all Government jobs should be lifetime tenure. (Many yes, not all)
Any Countries looking for aid (charity) from another Country shouldn’t think they can be critical of the Countries that provide that charity. They should get charity from Countries they don’t put down.
