"Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador warned on Sunday during an interview with "60 Minutes" that unless the United States complies with Latin America’s requests for aid, the tide of migrants will continue."

That is called extortion. The poem "Danegeld" comes to mind.

What comes to my mind was a phrase Americans used during the Quasi-War with France and the Barbary Wars (when Muslim pirates would demand protection money to stop them from capturing American cargo and military ships):

Millions for defense! Not a penny for tribute!

No, what I would call this is a declaration of war. This son of a b____ is threatening this country with invasion. Time to send in the Marines and clean out that cesspool. Let’s let Ukraine take care of itself. Let’s let Bibi take care of Israel, I’m sure he’s pretty damn capable. Let’s take care of our own homeland, while we still have one.
