As President Trump blows narcoboats out of the water in a bid to shake Venezuela's Marxist cocaine dictator, Nicolas Maduro, out of his illegitimately held nest, now narco-plagued Mexico is seeing huge protests in a bid to accomplish something similar, and the words "Latino Spring," come to mind. I've seen radical protests in Mexico City before, but nothing like these videos. I recall being there as the guest of a billionaire I was covering for Forbes magazine in March 2001. When the Chiapas 'revolutionary' known as Subcomandante Marcos marched into the Zocalo with his communist denizens, (same place where these riots took place,)

Its probably a bad idea, but I would love to see the Air Force do bombing practice on the mansions and production facilities for these cartels. Whats Mexico going to do to us that they havent already done? They've invaded us with illegals who wear down our welfare system. They've forced their dirty little culture on the entire southwest, to include the crime and drugs, and they fly their filthy flag in every area they've conquered. Its about time the pendulum made a swing our direction.

I think their beans are refried because all of their relatives who "migrated" to the United States are no longer sending them monthly bank deposits. They have been okay with fifty years of Mexico being a narco state with us as their biggest customer, why cry now? In all of my international business travel, Mexico City was the one place where I felt the most danger around me, even before leaving the airport.

#3, I was in Bogota Columbia in the late 1990s on a business trip to a ferro-nickel mine in the northwest near Monteria. We had to drive through Medellin to get there where the Medellin cartel was alive and well. Our driver said there had been recent kidnappings of mine personnel along the road on either side of town. Unless the driver could pay a ransom on the point, the mine people were taken out of their cars and the drivers disappeared. The cartel would hold the mine people until the ransom was paid. Most of the mine people were returned alive, some were not. We fully expected the same to happen to us at one of the checkpoints. But it didn't. It was our lucky day.

Sealed borders, steady deportation and active destruction of drug trafficking pipelines - it is like a trident that PDT is driving at the drug cartels and the narco regimes they support. I bet they hate Trump more than the Democrats - if that is possible!

#3, FTA…"But riots like this, with this intensity, are hardly likely to be astroturf. The discontent in Mexico is real. The U.S. finally has a president willing to do something about narco problems. That can credibly be something that gives angry, frustrated Mexicans heart to continue.” That’s why.

Well, if they can kill the narco terrorists in their country, perhaps they can take the control back. At this point, it seems that the whole country is run by narco terrorists.

If Sheinbaum would invite us in (or maybe just do it anyway or threaten to cut off all trade) Reaper drones could vaporize their mansions and headquarters without our troops involved. There would be collateral casualties that the leftists would scream about, but those would be nothing compared to the deaths the narco terrorists inflict on us. 100,000 from fentanyl alone every year. The left is even opposed to deporting violent criminals. Trump has certainly made a good start. I would think that recruiting for drug boat captains is getting tougher these days.

President Trump’s dramatic drop in support from Latinos stunned CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten, who shared polls Monday showing the commander in chief, once popular with the demographic group, is now severely underwater. Trump’s huge gains with Latinos helped propel him to victory over former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, but his support among the voting bloc is eroding fast, Enten demonstrated, blaming the president’s immigration policies. “He is 38 points underwater!” Enten said, showing a poll on how Latinos currently view Trump on the issue of immigration.

Alleged Chinese mole Linda Sun brazenly forged then-Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul’s signature in glowing missives sent to dignitaries from the Henan province, according to the feds and documents presented at her bombshell trial. Jurors in Brooklyn federal court were shown copies of letters purportedly sent by Hochul on March 26, 2018, inviting a six-member delegation from the province in central China to a meeting with then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo. But the letters bore clearly forged versions of Hochul’s signature — that featured “overly loopy” handwriting, her former chief of staff Jeff Lewis testified.

Countries that refuse to take back illegal migrants from Britain will face visa bans, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is to announce as part of a crackdown on immigration. But Labour MPs are getting uncomfortable. The Telegraph has more. States that will not accept the deportation of failed asylum seekers or foreign criminals are to face a “sliding scale” of penalties, from the removal of fast-track visa services to bans on entry documents for everyone from tourists to senior politicians. On Monday, the Home Secretary will announce plans to block people from travelling to the UK from Angola,

Have you ever noticed how an awfully large number of scrupulously ethical, conservative Christians end up prosecuted, sued and smeared with innuendos? The left loves to point to these as evidence that MAGA is just as corrupt as their side. They gleefully lump them in with a small handful of really awful people, allegedly on the right, who committed heinous crimes. The mainstream media frequently runs articles about child molesters interspersed with articles about these conservatives, implying that they are all equally bad. Run articles like this enough and people will start to make the association.

President Trump has continually said he’s sick and tired of this Epstein nonsense, from his perspective “a hoax’, taking attention away from priorities to make the U.S. economy thrive, energy independence and structural changes to the global economy putting America-First. However, those who seek to retain control over the global wealth system (and maintain the status quo) continuing manipulating the American psyche back to this ‘shiny thing’ in an effort to undermine the Trump agenda. Large numbers of people, perhaps some with good intentions, just cannot see through this ruse and keep falling into this Epstein trap.

President Donald Trump said House Republicans should vote to release the files in the Jeffrey Epstein case, a startling reversal after previously fighting the proposal as a growing number of those in his own party supported it. “We have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party,” Trump wrote on social media late Sunday after landing at Joint Base Andrews following a weekend in Florida. Trump’s statement followed a fierce fight within the GOP over the files, including an increasingly nasty split with Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene,

President Trump said Sunday that House Republicans should vote to release the files related to late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — a surprising reversal after previously dissuading the GOP from backing the measure. “House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party,” he wrote on Truth Social Sunday evening. A discharge petition for the House to vote to force the Justice Department to release all additional Epstein files received its final signature on Wednesday.

Several years ago, my husband Steve and I were watching TV as an American politician of Hispanic descent responded to a challenging question by an antagonistic reporter. The politician gave such an eloquent and informed answer, sprinkling his response with historical facts, literary allusions, and even dashes of humor, that when he completed his answer, Steve said, “Damn...that is one brilliant guy!” Reflexively, I expressed what I’ve privately suspected for ages when witnessing similar scenarios: “He’s probably Jewish!” Steve laughed, but I meant it. Not long after this episode, I read a book by Jon Entine, a former producer for NBC News and ABC News and the author of several books.

Just over 15 years ago, when the Democrat-controlled House and the Democrat-controlled Senate were debating the healthcare proposals offered by the Democrat president, nearly everyone on the political right was unified in opposition. It may well have been the last time the right was united on anything, but it was indeed unified and resolute. Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann (MN) warned that “This monstrosity of a bill will not only destroy the private healthcare market, it will lead to massive increases in premiums and rationed care.” Congressman (and eventual vice-presidential nominee and Speaker of the House) Paul Ryan (WI) complained that “This bill is a fiscal Frankenstein.

The “History of Communism” will be integrated into the state’s social studies standards and implemented in the 2026-2027 school year. It’s the result of a 2024 law signed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis that mandates students be taught the “consequences of communism” and to prepare them to “withstand indoctrination on communism at colleges and universities.” “With the resurgence of communist ideologies across the United States and throughout the world, it is more important than ever for students to understand the catastrophic failures and human

If there’s any good that’s come from the government shutdown, it’s exposing all the fraud being committed to exploit the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. To be sure, there are millions of needy Americans who were hurting from being deprived of SNAP as they tried to support children and keep their families from going hungry. This is not about them. This is about the other people — the individuals who dip into this program unjustly at the expense of the taxpayer.

Immigrants detained in facilities across the U.S. would be able to contact their lawyers and families under legislation filed by a group of congressional Democrats. The Restoring Access to Detainees Act affects immigrants who are placed in Customs and Border Protection or Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities. Sponsors of the legislation said it follows months of “credible reporting” that ICE and CBP have prevented detainees from contacting family members or legal representatives. “The Trump administration’s practice of snatching people off the street and denying them access to lawyers or calls to family is cruel, unnecessary, and puts U.S. citizens and lawfully present immigrants at risk of wrongful detention and deportation,”

COP30, the UN climate conference, is underway in Belem, Brazil. Thousands of representatives from all over the world have journeyed to discuss how to cut carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to try to fight human-caused climate change. But ten years after the Paris Climate Agreement, the global consensus on climate change is crumbling. COP30 is the thirtieth “conference of the parties.” The first took place in Berlin in 1995. At COP21 in Paris in 2015, more than 190 countries signed the Paris Climate Agreement, pledging to cut emissions and to limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. About 50,000 people are attending COP30 from more than 190 nations.

I saw this story out of Chicago today and it made me think of all the similar stories in places like Seattle, Portland and New York. The person in this story is a violent offender named William Livingston who has a long history of punching random women in the face and then walking away. Livingston has been arrested dozens of times and even gone to prison in the past, but no matter how many times this happens, he is always back on the street and going back to the same violent behavior. This week he was arrested yet again for two violent attacks that occurred in June.

Many stakeholders in the resolution of the Israel-Gaza War insist that a tenuous but legitimate agreement is in place to resolve this war. The exception to this understanding is…Hamas. Recently, an official for Hamas, Osama Hamdan, made clear in no uncertain terms, that Hamas will “negotiate” Phase 2 of the agreement. But their definition of negotiating is “stalling for time.” In a podcast interview on November 10, Hamdan emphasized that only the first phase of the plan had been accepted, not Phase 2. Hamas has still not complied with Phase 1, which raises a number of questions: Did Hamas lie to US President Donald J. Trump when it said that it had accepted

The White House did not respond to a request for comment on a $100 million corruption probe announced this week that has already prompted the resignations of senior Ukrainian officials. Corruption has long been a friction point in U.S.-Ukraine relations.
