Vanity: How many Mexican troll factories are trying to influence our elections?

Posted on 02/17/2018 1:25:06 PM PST by Jim Robinson

Speaking of Russian troll factories, how many Mexican national or Mexico advocating troll factories or organizations such as La Raza, etc, are actively trying to influence our elections or are colluding with or in conspiracy with democrat candidates or officials to meddle in our elections?

How many Mexican national trolls have posted derogatory posts on our social media regarding our conservative candidates and policies?

Mueller? Mueller? Anyone?

I swear the only answer is in the future America invades Mexico, immediately executes thousands of drug dealers, still has a border wall but pays a token sum or rewards immigration back into Mexico.

The reconquista is going according to plan.

Hey! Look! Russians——>!

No amnesty. Build the wall. Secure the border. Deport all of the illegals.

It’s just amazing how virtually all of our elected “officials” are fighting against the American people over this.

Last time I checked, Americans elected representatives to serve OUR interests, not Mexico’s interests.

Thankfully, we have a President who has bucked that trend, and is putting the screws to these “officials”.

Obama tried to get illegal immigrants to vote. He all but came out and said there would be no legal consequences if they voted.

The groups that need a hard look are The National Council of La Raza which changed its name to UnidosUS, Latino Victory Project, LULAC, MEChA, Nation of Aztlan- there are more, but that is a good start.

This is pretty interesting reading for good background go to the link and read it all:

“Zambada-Niebla’s lawyer claimed to the court that in the late 1990s, Castro struck a deal with U.S. agents in which Sinaloa would provide information about rival drug trafficking organizations while the U.S. would dismiss its case against the Sinaloa lawyer and refrain from interfering with Sinaloa drug trafficking activities or actively prosecuting Sinaloa leadership.

“The agents stated that this arrangement had been approved by high-ranking officials and federal prosecutors,” Zambada-Niebla lawyer wrote.

After being extradited to Chicago in February 2010, Zambada-Niebla argued that he was also “immune from arrest or prosecution” because he actively provided information to U.S. federal agents.

Zambada-Niebla also alleged that Operation Fast and Furious was part of an agreement to finance and arm the cartel in exchange for information used to take down its rivals. (If true, that re-raises the issue regarding what Attorney General Eric Holder knew about the gun-running arrangements.)

A Mexican foreign service officer told Stratfor in April 2010 that the U.S. seemed to have sided with the Sinaloa cartel in an attempt to limit the violence in Mexico.

El Universal reported that the coordination between the U.S. and Sinaloa, as well as other cartels, peaked between 2006 and 2012, which is when drug traffickers consolidated their grip on Mexico. The paper concluded by saying that it is unclear whether the arrangements continue.

The DEA and other U.S. agencies declined to comment to El Universal.”

I personally believe cartel money has in the past and currently is being poured into this country and is financing activists- protests, campaign donations, ETC. Not sure anyone has really dug into that much but I do think there is a deep connection.

how would the CTR trolls stack up against the so-called Russian trolls? even “liberal” Wikipedia can’t deny what went on:

Wikipedia: Correct the Record
Correct the Record was a super PAC founded by David Brock. It supported Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. The super PAC aimed to find and confront social media users who posted unflattering messages about Clinton and paid anonymous tipsters for unflattering scoops about Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, including audio and video recordings and internal documents...
In April 2016, Correct the Record announced that it would be spending $1 million to find and confront social media users who post unflattering messages about Clinton...

Super PACs, officially known as “independent-expenditure only committees”, are political committees that are legally only allowed to make expenditures that are independent of specific campaigns and which are not coordinated with a candidate or political party. However, Correct the Record says its activities do not fall under this campaign coordination ban restriction, relying on a 2006 Federal Election Commission “Internet exemption” regulation that said that content posted online for free is off limits from regulation. According to FEC rules, online postings do not technically count as campaign expenditures, which allows independent groups to consult with candidates about the content they post on their sites.

In July 2016, leaked Democratic National Committee emails appeared to show the Clinton presidential campaign and senior Clinton aides, including John Podesta, her campaign chairman, were coordinating with the Correct the Record PAC.[8] These included an email stating that the campaign would “work with CTR and DNC to publicize specific GOP candidate vulnerabilities” and others dealing with fundraising issues for CTR

Tag MALDEF onto that list of groups.

Folks should search for keywords using the names of the groups shown.

The Reconquista goes way back here in California where the state may as well kick all whites off the ballot and vote Brown, they are truly an endangered species.

Even the President of Mexico encouraged Mexicans to vote for HIllary Clinton.

This is why we keep saying at the top of our lungs that the "Mexican government is one of the most corrupt institutions".

Hillary had the Rats mesmerized since they were crying after the 2016 Elections. I will never ever forget how these Rats were crying and they think that she was cheated out of the election.

If we asked any folks who have followed the careers of the Clintoons, the first thing that pops into everybody's mind is Miss Hillary lost yet they cheated big time.

This is how elections are won in Mexico. They put the U.S. cheating in elections to shame since they are so corrupt south of the border. In fact, I will go a little bit further in saying that cheating in elections in Mexico is taken as an art form. I ain't lying either.

This is just one of the main reasons we need a Southern Border Wall from San Diego. California down to Brownsville, Texas.

“How many illegal aliens are registered to vote?”

Quite a few in California. In the last election Gov. Jerry Brown was openly encouraging illegals to vote. California Drivers licenses were original touted as a vehicular “safety measure” with identifying marks to prevent the DL use to register to vote. Very soon after the Illegals DL law was passed these marks were strike from all issued licenses. Illegals routinely vote in California elections as encouraged by the state’s Democrats!

In part, this is one reason why California is a one party state! Once the DoJ is cleaned up I would like to see it sue the State of California for it’s usurpation of MY rights to a fair and uncorrupted state Government.

Per other posts, if the non-citizens are volunteers and not paid, it is OK for those non-citizens to campaign for a candidate in the US. But it is a crime if they are paid. And if there is a payment, both the payer and the payee are equally guilty.

I’m glad that all the non-citizens I’ve involved in campaigns, putting yard signs in their yards, etc, were volunteers and not paid. Of course, with one exception, I’ve never paid a citizen to campaign either.

I did pay $1 per signature for an immigrant from Alabama to Chicago to collect signatures on a petition to get Gracianno Lopez on the ballot. She collected about 620, all but two good.

Anyone want to do private eye work and document non-citizens who were paid in 2016? How about being paid in the present tense during 2018?

If you can get an organization like the ACLJ to take it, you could bring suit.

Every Democrat that brings their pet illegal with them to protests, fundrausers, etc., should be charged with treason.

If Russia was on our southern border and was sending millions of poor Democrat voters into the United States you can bet that the Democrats wouldn’t be taking about them that way. Why, the would be calling their children the “dreamers”. LOL

Bottom line is that free speech is free speech, anyone can post any point of view about American presidential candidates, the fact that some are posted to influence the outcome is really not the point, the point is whether or not the voting public has enough time and enough access to facts to make an informed decision.

I find it ridiculous that anyone is even discussing internet troll contributions when, in plain sight, is the obvious fact that criminal acts by the other candidate were never fully explored or discussed, and that’s a failure not of the internet but of the mainstream media who refused their responsibility.

If they don’t want to do their job, they should hardly start complaining if a few internet trolls do some kind of a job and influence a couple of hundred votes, when by errors of omission, they influence millions. How would HRC have won the popular vote if it had been widely reported what facts very likely exist about her activities especially in relation to access for money and the Haiti business?

But as to Mexican trolls, probably quite a few, but preaching to the choir mainly, as would be any Russian pro-Trump trolls. This is what makes the whole thing difficult to judge, what impact does it have when extra voices are heard saying the same thing as millions of legitimate voices have already said in the election discussion?

Very interesting, I had not heard much about them. There are other organizations that provide legal help as well.

Would really be interesting to know who pays all these lawyers, since we all know lawyers are not cheap.
