If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Come on baby light my fire.....

I have been looking at Mexican news.   Interesting read.  By next year the country could look like Venezuela.  And the article state his bad policy concerning the drug cartel has made his first part of his term the bloodiest:

Ewe!  This is how Mexico runs its government?

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
We're not going to war with Mexico.
Well, that's a dirty rotten shame. They've been at war with us for decades.
You just don't seem to grasp the concept of asymmetrical warfare.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They certainly have.  Its been a long drawn out process.


People should look around.  Our country is enslaved to the Drug Cartel.  The homeless problem is a direct result of Drug Cartel.  Every major city that is falling apart has Mexico's name on it.  Every family that suffers drug addiction.  Every park that has used needles.  Every school that is overrun by gang violence...………. I could go on and on.  Fact is that Mexico has been taking our country over for a long time and we have let them.  Our politicians with the lure of cheap labor and votes.

Gee... and the gov't is still trying to defend their 'practices' of their war on drugs.  It doesn't help that we have drug lords on this side of the border, of which some in gov't have their hands in.  As a result we now have an opioid epidemic and an invasion of ILLEGALS and a drug crisis.

Yet in his infinite wisdom, Trump decides NOT to shut down the border, granting asylum for those who come here and threaten Mexico with tariffs.  He would also have you believe that Mexico is going to be able to contain these people waiting to be processed!  No worries ... there is no plan as of yet to ensure that the caravans/trains stop coming!

Oh, did I mention that someone posted an article that Mexico attempted to arrest hundreds on a train coming in -- yep -- it was so successful, that most were able to exit and hide in the bushes.  But...they were able to arrest 25!  25 out of hundreds and if we look at the bigger picture; 25 out of how many hundreds of thousands that have already made it in?

ALL these illegals will soon be coming to a town near you.  All compliments of FAILURES on behalf of our President, and a worthless Congress!

Trump threatens more tariffs on Mexico over part of immigration deal

4 hrs ago

 
WASHINGTON, June 10 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Monday the United States had signed another portion of an immigration and security deal with Mexico that would need to be ratified by Mexican lawmakers.

He did not provide details but threatened tariffs if Mexico's Congress did not approve the plan.

"We have fully signed and documented another very important part of the Immigration and Security deal with Mexico, one that the U.S. has been asking about getting for many years. It will be revealed in the not too distant future and will need a vote by Mexico's legislative body," Trump tweeted.

"We do not anticipate a problem with the vote but, if for any reason the approval is not forthcoming, tariffs will be reinstated."

I'm sure the Mexican Congress respects Trump just as much as our own House of Representatives.  The days of illegal immigrants flooding our border are over. /sarc
