Summary
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum criticized Donald Trump’s executive order to label drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, emphasizing Mexico’s sovereignty and rejecting U.S. military intervention.
Trump’s order, part of broader measures on border security, could allow asset seizures and sanctions against cartels but faces skepticism for its effectiveness.
Experts warn it may complicate asylum claims, as migrants paying cartels for passage could face disqualification.
Critics see the move as political posturing, while some victims’ families hope the designation will bring justice and highlight Mexico’s cartel violence.
Anyone laying odds for how long it’ll take for Trump to decide to invade Mexico? I’d give it two quarters, max.
Predicting he’ll call Mexico an “American protectorate” or some other bullshit before/during/after he invades.
If Mexico becomes part of the US at least we’ll get rid of a lot of the immigration controversy, right? Right?!
it won’t be an invasion.
it will be a special military operation.
Special Freedom Operation.
I mean it only makes sense to own the land with shores on the gulf of America.
