Mexico’s President Threatens To Meddle In U.S. Elections To Beat Republicans: ‘Corrupt’ To Stop Cartels
The Daily Wire ^ | March 9, 2023 | Ryan Saavedra

Posted on 03/11/2023 2:48:11 PM PST by Twotone

Leftist Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, also known as AMLO, threatened the Republican Party during a press conference on Thursday for wanting to use the U.S. military to destroy the nation’s powerful multi-billion dollar drug cartels.

Obrador’s remarks come as Republican lawmakers and top former officials, like former Attorney General William Barr, have called for using the U.S. military in recent weeks to put an end to the billions of dollars worth of drugs pouring into the U.S., which are responsible for tens of thousands of deaths per year. The cartels made $13 billion last year from human smuggling alone.

The remarks from lawmakers come after four Americans were kidnapped in Mexico this week and two of them ended up being murdered.

“We establish our position at once: we are not going to allow any foreign government to intervene, much less the armed forces of a foreign government, to intervene in our territory,” he declared at a press conference. “And starting today, we are going to initiate an information campaign (aimed at) Mexicans who live and work in the United States, and all Hispanics, to inform them about what we are doing in Mexico and how this initiative from the Republicans, besides being irresponsible, is an offense against the people on Mexico.”

If these new 3 Texas women have disappeared for good, and the wheels have come off the cartel in Matamoros, this is the pathway for President Trump to sign about 10 executive orders his first day back, Monday, Jan. 20, 2025.

The first 8 are warrants for Labrador, his VP, and the 6 cartel leaders, and the last 2 are suspension of southern border transit other than American citizens driving CDL commerce, and finishing the border wall before 2026.

Now would be a great time to float his sewage back to him across the Rio Grande. I went in to Lowe’s today. Almost everything in the store is locked in a cage or has a green anti-theft beeper on it. At least Lowe’s is ready for the invading refreegeez construction workers. They’re going to have to pay for their tools now. Home Depot looks like it’s starting to build up their security against the invading “refreegeez”. Gas lines are getting longer here though. The illegal aliens don’t seem to be suffering financially. Every one of them I’ve seen in Walmart is buying one of those huge drive in style 85 inch TVs.

Good point. I see where Jo Jo’s little shyster buddy, Zelenskkyyyy asked to make a plea for more money at the liberal trophy awards tomorrow night. They said, “No”. It would interfere with Willie Smith’s Slapfest 2, the sequel.

Good points and scary. Wait till we see what many of the illegal invaders are going to do this summer. They’re going to raise hell, imo.

Mexico has been a bad neighbor for a long time, and we have been their willing patsey. How many tens of millions of their surplus population have we taken on? How American territory is under defacto control of the cartels? How much human wreckage has been caused by the activities of the cartels? The time for action against Mexico has long since passed. But our government’s operating principal seems to be to close the gate after the horse has run off, and a lot of Americans have a big appetite for cheap labor, hookers, and dope. If we had government with any integrity and pride and sense of duty, we wouldn’t be in this mess, but we don’t, so here we are.

I hadn’t heard about him asking for more aid publicly. Not surprised at all. Thanks.

Mexico is breaking bad. This is not a good sign for America; having a Mexican President publicly threaten our country like that. We are starting to really get pushed around by everybody.

We don’t need to invade Mexico to get rid of the cartels. We can:

1, seal the border (wall and military)
2. change law to make drug dealers same as murderers. (they really are)
3. change law to life sentences or death for cartel members or anyone convicted in selling hard drugs.
4. begin process deporting the millions of illegals who have entered the US.
5. deny due process on all deportation proceedings
6. review immigration laws and make them work!

“ Now American politicians are going to have to choose a side: America or Mexican Cartels who control most of the Mexican government”

You don’t think the cartels own a big chunk of our government ??

Not that big to stiffle him. Shut every single road in and out of Mexico. No trade and Mexico would be ripe for sanctions. Naurally shutting the border is the best. Standing by 1...2...3...

It is unfortunate that Trump couldn’t get the wall completed in the four years that he was president. It is also unfortunate that Trump didn’t get Mexico to pay for the wall as he promised.

Obrador isn’t going back channel because Graham didn’t go back channel.

The Mexican president didn’t threaten our nation, he threatened republicans and that will make RATS very happy.
