Not Guilty.

Sheinbaum, 61, is poised to make history as Mexico’s first female president and first Jewish head of state. Polls a week before Mexico’s election show her enjoying a wide lead over the next candidate, the conservative entrepreneur Xóchitl Gálvez.
Still, after nearly a quarter-century in the public eye, she remains an enigma, known mainly as the low-key protégé of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the charismatic leader known as AMLO.
AMLO doesn’t speak English and dislikes traveling abroad. Sheinbaum did postdoctoral research at the University of California at Berkeley; her sister and daughter live in the United States.
The president, raised in Mexico’s poorer south, has the kind of folksy, small-town charm that catapulted Bill Clinton to the presidency. Sheinbaum grew up among the intellectual elite in the capital, enjoying daily ballet lessons and private tutoring in French.
What unites the two is a passion for political activism.
Sheinbaum’s parents were committed leftists, with a copy of Karl Marx’s “Das Kapital” hidden in the closet. Her mother, a biology professor, lost her job for participating in the 1968 student-led demonstrations against the one-party system that ruled Mexico for decades.
She’s not religious; she rarely discusses her Jewish heritage. (Her grandparents migrated from Lithuania and Bulgaria to escape discrimination and Nazi persecution.)
In many ways, Sheinbaum’s mayoralty was an exercise in pragmatism. To battle crime, she brought in Omar García Harfuch, a former head of Mexico’s equivalent of the FBI, who had worked closely with U.S. law enforcement. He was the scion of a police family despised by many on the left; his grandfather was defense secretary in 1968 when security forces massacred hundreds of pro-democracy protesters, many of them students, in Mexico City’s Tlatelolco plaza.
Sheinbaum claims that homicides dropped by half on her watch. Analysts have questioned her figures...

Kommie Krap
Jews are the reason for the Cristero war.
A Jewish Communist. Imagine that.
And Canada has a red diaper idiot but hopefully not too much longer. Idiocracy everywhere these days.
I wish they’d elect someone who could fix that s-hole so they’d stop coming here.

Not Guilty.
A female European Jew marxist from Berkeley with family root in Mexico since WWII...running for President.
This is gonna be a good barometer to see where Mexico is these days.
Commies are all guilty.
Yes, you are right but you have to get my drift.
Who knows how to use commies? What is his name?
I'd be much more alarmed if she were a “protégé” of "conservative" Vicente Fox. The so-called "conservative" PAN presidents of Mexico were HORRIBLE, and a much bigger pain in the butt than the so-called "far left" President of Mexico EVER was. Vicente Fox is STILL a complete blowhard jerk on social media, and did way more damage as President of Mexico than the scaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy AMLO ever did.
I call BS on that. They proudly had Marx's literature right out in the open on the coffee table.
1. He failed to make mexico pay for that wall. They ran roughshod over us, and now the cartels are embedded in our landscape like cancer.
2. Trump never met a "baum" or a "berg" or a "ner" he didn't bend over for.
This new president of mexico will, as her name suggests, send the entire country over the border. It is an obsession. A compulsion. Her duty.
From what I’ve read she’s in the mold of Daniel Ortega and Hugo Chavez, she easily could invite a confrontation against Mexico by allowing a much closer alliance between Mexico and China and/or Russia much Cuba has done over the years, definitely I think she will be very anti-American
If she is AMLO protege, she is owned by cartels like he is.
She will be the next President of Mexico if China and the cartels let her.
What happened to Obrador?
Wow…
Good memory!!!
