Mexico’s President Says ‘Migrant Caravans’
No Longer Arriving in US

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 11/28/2024 11:29:35 AM

Mexico’s president said this week that migrant caravans are no longer heading to the United States, as she responded to a renewed tariff threat issued by President-elect Donald Trump. In a letter that she sent to Trump that was emailed to The Epoch Times by the Mexican Embassy in the United States on Tuesday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum wrote that “migrant caravans [will] no longer arrive at the border,” adding that Mexico has taken efforts to curb the flow of drugs such as fentanyl.

Comments:

The most comprehensive article I've read. But her letter notwithstanding, a caravan of unaccompanied children as young as 2 just arrived at our border. That must never ever happen. International amnesty law does not include anything but going go nearest country, not picking and choosing. Unless she wakes up to reality, we will have to wait for PDJT and Tom Homan. She will not be happy. OK.

As for her efforts to curb "flow of fentanyl", she must deal with China's shipping fentanyl into Mexico where it is processed into the various forms that come here to kill Americans.

What she did not say is that the Mexican smuggling cartels will now convert those caravans into small groups and individuals and will continue to smuggle them across the US borderline and unlawfully into the USA, with the help of corrupt Mexican government officials and police who will continue to look the other way after collecting their “mordida” or “the bite” in corrupt payoffs from the cartels. That’s the way it works in Mexico and you can be sure that Tom Holman has briefed Trump on those historic Mexican corrupt activities.

it appear she quibbled and left her commitment unclear. So this left Trump with a bad choice: confront the ambiguity and look prissy and mean and whiny, or let it go until Jan 6 and discover then that she meant nothing, and then what, start a war? Have anothe ambiguous phone call? So what did he do. He blasted worldwide that she gave in. And she took the bait and clarified she hadn't committed to anything. Now the way is open for him to apply tariffs.

President Trump understands Mexico is run by evil and dangerous cartels. He knows she is merely doing their bidding. He will handle her appropriately.

The President Trump transition team has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to start the process of transferring control of the federal government. The landing teams from each of the cabinets will now begin to engage with their exiting counterparts. There were many articles written about the delays in signing the agreements. However, President Trump waited until he has his cabinet fully assembled before signing the first part that permits the landing teams to engage. The second part with government provided offices and technology is NOT being accepted. President Trump’s Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, announced the Trump transition team has refused to sign an MOU

Republican state legislators in North Carolina are moving quickly to pass measures to restrict Democrat power over elections after likely losing its veto-proof majority in the state House.

First, it’s worth remembering that in the fine print of the USMCA deal, Mexico and Canada must comply with North American parts origination for anything they want to manufacture for sale into the United States. Meaning, all trade manufacturers must either create their component parts domestically, or purchase them from the U.S, Mexico and Canada. It’s the core point of the USMCA trade agreement. Secondly, in an aspect exclusive to the U.S. part of the deal that President Trump and USTR Lighthizer insisted upon, if either Canada or Mexico are deemed to be non-compliant with the agreement, the USA can cancel/override

The nomination of former Florida AG Pam Bondi for the position of U.S. Attorney General is a big mistake; not for the corrupt background of Bondi that we presume President Trump is not aware of, but rather for the background of Pam Bondi the Deep Swamp is almost certainly aware of. Within the background story of state AG corruption and unlawful activity, Pam Bondi is very easily leveraged, blackmailed and controlled. I presume at this writing that President Donald Trump is completely unaware of what Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi did during her time in office.

Kerry made the remarks on Thursday at a recent John F.

A senior Biden administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the private consultations, said Wednesday that the outgoing Democratic administration wants Ukraine to lower the mobilization age to 18 from the current age of 25 to expand the pool of fighting-age men available to help a badly outnumbered Ukraine in its nearly three-year-old war with Russia.

An Ontario town has been fined $10,000 and its officials ordered to complete mandatory “human rights” training after it refused to celebrate Pride Month. Emo is a township of about 1,300 people located in the far west of Ontario, along the border with Minnesota. In a decision handed down last week, the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario ruled that Emo, its mayor and two of its councillors had violated the Ontario Human Rights Code by refusing to proclaim June as “Pride Month.” The town was also cited for failing to fly “an LGBTQ2 rainbow flag,” despite the fact that they don’t have an official flag pole.
