"Fuming, Defiant" Mexican Politicians Meet With US Officials Over "Hostile" Immigration Policies
zerohedge.com ^ | Feb 23, 2017

Posted on 02/23/2017 4:42:12 AM PST by Helicondelta

Top US officials arrived in Mexico Wednesday to find a "defiant, fuming" Mexican government refusing to accept President Donald Trump’s tougher immigration and deportation policies.

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson landed in Mexico City on Wednesday afternoon. He was due to be joined by Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly later for talks the White House said would "walk through" the implementation of Trump's immigration orders. Kelly signed the guidelines issued by his department on Monday. Mexico's lead negotiator with the Trump administration, Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray, said there was no way Mexico would accept the new rules, which among other things seek to deport non-Mexicans to Mexico.

"We also have control of our borders and we will exercise it fully," he said, adding that Mexico was prepared to go the United Nations to defend the freedoms and rights of Mexicans under international law.

These “fuming, defiant” hombres need to be reminded of their own country’s immigration laws, and their enforcement policies.

Then they can STFU and start writing checks to the “Great Wall of Trump” foundation.

The Mexican economy will collapse if this is imposed. the government may even collapse. they have been using the american economy to ensure their socialist haven for decades and not fixing their own economic mess.

The next order of business is to halt all unofficial money transfers into Mexico.

If England had not defeated the Spanish Armada 400 years ago, the United States would look like Mexico. Mexico needs to fix itself.

They have been allowing these people in through their southern border. Refugees are supposed to go to the first safe place not country shop.

Let's understand the reasons why Mexico's panties are in a twist b/c its citizens are being thrown off the US gravy train.

Mexico's deception is a long-running soap opera. Trump needs to expose them. Mexico manipulates public opinion---wants everybody to believe they're helpless---just a poverty-stricken place besieged by drug cartels. It's so bad, millions of its citizens are forced to jump the border to have a "better life" by riding the US gravy train.

REALITY CHECK---FOLLOW THE MONEY-----the resignation of Agustin Carstens, chief of Mexico’s central bank, has left MSM pundits and even business analysts scratching their heads. It appears no-one has any idea why Carstens is leaving…...... well, almost no-one.

ITEM--- Mexico has been swilling at the US trough....grabbing our tax dollars hand over fist.

ITEM---Mexico is one of the top ten countries receiving US foreign aid----almost a billion per year besides raking in hundreds of millions via the infamous "Merida Initiative."

ITEM---Mexicans here send home back billions of our tax dollars.....the federales are prolly getting a huge cut of that.

ITEM--Some 125 countries including Muslim scum gather at the Mexican border to stroll into the US. Mexico prolly gets a fee from each country to let that happen.

ITEM--The Merida Initiative alone has blanketed Mexico w/ millions of US tax dollars for years and years.

================================================

The appalling govt corruption in Mexico needs to be exposed.

ITEM--A report on intl gambling....about a select few who are the casino's biggest bettors....list Mexicans along w/ multi-billionaires like Arabs and China's new billionaires as regulars at the high rolling gaming tables.

Mexico is not a country that is in need of US tax dollars.

Trump's presidential order calls for the removal of any legal immigrant who relies on certain kinds of US public welfare benefits.....and would also focus the government's efforts on blocking immigrants who are likely to become reliant on US government benefits.

This signals the cracking down on immigrants in the US illegally, but also some living in our country legally.

Mexico doesn't like that. They might have to exit the high roller gambling venues and provide a safety net for their people they tossed over the border to slobber at the US public trough.

“Jorge Castaneda, Mexican Official, Threatens To Combat President Trump By “Unleashing Drug Cartels”

LINK http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-30/mexican-official-threatens-combat-president-trump-unleashing-drug-cartels

ACT NOW---Domestic and international laws could very well have been breached. Mexico's dangerous and harmful threats could impact US trade, statess economies and interstate and international commerce.

CONTACT CONGRESS: Capitol Switchboard 1- 866 -220-0044

Contact President Trump's web site. www.greatagain.gov.

FBI TIPS PAGE--YOU MAY REMAIN ANONYMOUS ---https://tips.fbi.gov

This is the most politically explosive admission by the Mexican government in the past decade.

TALKING POINTS---Whenifhow posted: Jorge Castaneda is openly admitting a willingness to promote drug trafficking. Additionally, Jorge Castaneda is so proud of the threat, he even posted a video of the discussion on his own YouTube page..... ....the implications here are so politically explosive, and the admission so brutally obvious and threatening, it could undermine the entire argument of the Mexican government and expose an open secret of collusion they would prefer to remain hidden.

Many people would be surprised to learn that the Mexican govt controls its drug cartels and that the savage cartels act under the orders of the Mexican govt.

Trump’s immigration policies should MIRROR Mexico’s. Cross that border going south and you are persecuted.

In other news: To sidetrack this tread a little we heard from some chinese friends that ICE raided a chinese buffet in Missouri and hauled off several illegals. I wonder if they are going to dump them in Mexico also.

New Confusis saying: “If ICE raids the chinese massage spas there will be no more HAPPY ENDINGS.

The reason I am sending you a private message is to tell you that at #9 you have “prolly” instead of “probably” twice in your comments.

Thanks, again.

“This trip is focusing on how we can build a constructive relationship, work through our common interests on security, on migration, on the economic elements of the relationship,” a senior administration official said.

Yeah like that's going to happen.

Trump needs to remind them that he might send expeditionary forces down there to clear out the drug lords and also arrest any politicians involved in illegal activities that harm US interests; not a war declaration but rather a Peace-Keeping Mission! Nicki needs to announce a bill to the U.N. suggesting a US Peace Keeping Mission to stop Drugs and restore the Souther Boarder!
