Victor Davis Hanson explains the strategy of using tariffs against Mexico to stop the spread of fentanyl and U.S. money going to cartels. From The Daily Signal's 'Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words' series: VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Donald Trump has threatened all sorts of trade sanctions on Mexico at 25% tariff, but why is he doing this? And I think the answer is there's four things that Mexico knows it has been doing to us with impunity, especially under Joe Biden, that are not sustainable. The first, it used to run under NAFTA, 10 to $20 billion trade surplus....

Mexican authorities will investigate a housing complex in the state of Jalisco where mass graves, hundreds of personal belongings, and clandestine crematoriums were discovered by a collective searching for missing persons. Mexico’s Prosecutor’s Office will lead the investigation after President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on Wednesday that her administration requested the agency to take over the case. The Prosecutor’s Office is an autonomous constitutional body, independent from the executive branch. Jalisco Governor Pablo Lemus stated that the Mexican National Search Commission will also collaborate with state and national authorities to investigate the mass graves. The complex is also believed to have...

Former Trump Senior Economic Adviser Stephen Moore told Newsmax on Wednesday that the United States might be in for "a little rough sledding" over the next few weeks, when it comes to President Donald Trump's tariffs, but they will ultimately bring about "freer and fairer trade." "I'm an old-fashioned free trade guy and I've always believed in the kind of [former President Ronald] Reagan vision that North America should be one big free-trade zone," Moore said on Newsmax's "Wake Up America." "Trump did negotiate a good trade deal in his first term, the [United States-Mexico-Canada] free trade deal, so I'd...

After speaking with President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico, I have agreed that Mexico will not be required to pay Tariffs on anything that falls under the USMCA Agreement. This Agreement is until April 2nd. I did this as an accommodation, and out of respect for, President Sheinbaum. Our relationship has been a very good one, and we are working hard, together, on the Border, both in terms of stopping Illegal Aliens from entering the United States and, likewise, stopping Fentanyl. Thank you to President Sheinbaum for your hard work and cooperation!

Last week, Campeche became the 21st Mexican state to decriminalize abortion, according to reports. On February 24, local legislators approved the State Human Rights Commission to allow abortion through 12 weeks of pregnancy, while also increasing punishments for those who coerce a woman to abort her baby against her will. According to the Yucatan Times, the new ruling modifies articles 157 and 158 of the state’s penal code, increasing the penalties for coercing a woman into an abortion (using physical or psychological violence) from eight to 10 years. It also modifies articles 155 and 159, eliminating all sanctions against anyone...

The bodies of nine students who went missing on vacation in southern Mexico last month have been found dismembered by the side of a local highway — with a bag of hands nearby. The group’s gruesome remains were discovered in the trunk of an abandoned vehicle and underneath a blood-covered tarp in San Jose Miahuatlan on the border of the Mexican states of Puebla and Oaxaca. ... Four of the bodies were in the trunk, while the other five corpses were left under the tarp. A bag with eight pairs of hands was also found at the scene, with two...

President Trump announced new tariffs on Canada and Mexico, as well as China on Monday, sending the stock market plummeting. This morning, stock prices continued to fall, with the overall market only down a couple of percentage points, although certain individual stocks have fared worse. Tesla, for example, is down more than 10 percent since Monday's tariff announcement. Legacy automakers' stock prices dropped, as well, although not nearly as sharply as Tesla's. Unfortunately for everyone connected to the auto industry in any way, the complex, international supply chain it relies on leaves the auto sector uniquely exposed, the Wall Street...

[Catholic Caucus] Story of a Cristero: Enrique GorostietaIt is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather, we should thank God that such men lived. -General George Smith Patton Jr. (1885-1945)“I am Enrique Gorostieta,” stammered the downed soldier, struggling, blood oozing from the hole where a bullet had ripped open his chest.With callous contempt, the enemy pointed a 7mm machine gun and pulled the trigger, delivering a fatal shot to the head of the wounded warrior, on June 2, 1929, at the San Jose del Valle Hacienda, in the Highlands of Jalisco.A swift, unexpected end to the brilliant,...

Comrades, Ontario Premier Doug Ford held a press conference this afternoon to announce he has declared a ‘state of emergency‘ and intends to issue orders against dissident truckers authorizing the police to place them under arrest, initiate fines up to $100k each individual, and revoke the personal and commercial licenses of anyone who doesn’t comply. The rebellion must be quashed, before the citizens start to think they have power. As a typical DeceptiCon, Premier Ford begins his justification with the feels, and then gets to down to the business of calling the Freedom Protest in Ottawa an illegal occupation. Ford...

Just when you thought 2020 couldn’t possibly get any weirder... Get this: Coronavirus internment camps on Canadian soil. Sounds impossible, but believe it or not, there’s a federal request for proposals (RFP) to construct them. So if their intended existence is clear as day, the question then becomes: just who is destined to reside in these camps? Ontario MPP Randy Hillier (Lamarck-Frontenac-Kingston) raised this issue during question period in the Ontario legislature a few days ago. He received strange, evasive answers, and some of his questions were just flat-out ignored. We have the video to prove it. Just what are...

Premier Doug Ford was called a “f—–g cracker” by a bunch of young commies on Tuesday. Student activists attempted to unfurl a protest banner in the legislative chamber at Queen’s Park during the first sitting of the year. As they were stopped by security, one young woman erupted with expletives. “Doug Ford can kiss my a–,” she yelled. Then the young black woman followed up with a racial slur. “You’re a f—–g cracker! You know that?” she yelled at the premier. Outside the legislature students were rallying. They are upset that the Ford government is making changes to Ontario’s student...
