Oops, a big slip up-——Mexican president Obrador didnt think that one through.
Obrador demanded on tv talk that the US send $20 billion to his neck of the woods......or else.
And what, he was asked, would happen if the U.S. were to refuse Mexico’s blackmail threats?
Obrador abruptly snapped:
“The flow of migrants will continue” - a stark unequivocal admission that he, Obrador himself, has all the power to stop, or turn on, illegals pouring into the U.S.
This is what’s driving the Mexican greedster.
He figures its worth the risk........the more migrants
they escort here here means more remittances back to Mexico.
SAN DIEGO (Border Report—Feb 8, 2024)
More than $63 billion in remittances were sent to Mexico in 2023,
with most of the money arriving from the US, according to
Banxico, Mexico’s central bank.
The figure is a 7% hike from the previous year.
Not to mention the annual billions we give to these troublesome Latin American countries.
