A US court just demonstrated NO ONE is above the rule of law. Looks pretty solid to me.

Got me enough popcorn to last for 5 months.




US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.

What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

Like january 6 groundhogs day, repetitive political violence

Hopefully Claudia Sheinbaum will get necessary control of the military and police so she can clean out the cartels and corrupt politicians and civil service. But i doubt it…

I had a good friend in the mid 60s who came from the state of Colima to live with his aunt in California. He had an older, half-brother from another mother who was idealistic and thought he would go into Mexico politics to bring about a positive change.

The father was a successful businessman and well connected, but he threatened to dis-inherit the older brother if he became a politician and ruined the family's reputation!

Hoping a woman president can do a better job than a testosterone-poisoned man. Seems like we got decades of failure by men, so about time for women to have a go at it, eh?

Baja California (Norte) has a woman governor who grew up in Mexicali, which is the capital of the state.

I find it interesting that she traveled to Brawley CA to give birth to both of her children, and the second one was recently while she is in office!

Well connected anchor babies?

Typical American condescending attitude. Because Mexico doesn't have opportunity for a wealthy politician's kid.
ok....
