Mexican President Calls Out U.S. Secretary of State for Comments about Murdered Journalists
the cartel puppet is pissed
[Breitbart] President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) called out U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, saying he was misinformed about violence perpetrated against Mexican journalists.

During his Thursday morning news conference, Lopez Obrador took aim at Blinken, telling him to stay out of Mexico’s issues.

“Ask him to become informed and not act in an interfering fashion,” the Mexican president said. “Mexico is not a colony of the U.S. — nor a protectorate.”

The harsh rebuke comes one day after Blinken took to social media to express concern about the number of journalists killed in Mexico. As Breitbart Texas has reported, five journalists were killed in Mexico since the start of 2022.

#1  El Presidente doesn't understand that in El Norte the 'journalists' are minions of The Party. While they treat them like the dogs they are, sometime they need a bone thrown to them to keep them from wandering off.

#2  Why not just invade Mexico.
Make it a US terrority since we already have over 20 mil. Of their people here.
KILL off the cartels and illegal drugs.

#3  KILL off the cartels and illegal drugs.

How many Hunter Bidens do you think they already have in our ruling class? Then you understand why we won't.

#4  /\ Exactly correct, not to mention one of the major mechanisms of commerce in the urban community.

#5  Remember the slap on the wrist Wachovia/Wells Fargo got years ago for laundering drug money?

#7  How many Hunter Bidens do you think they already have in our ruling class? Then you understand why we won't.

Indeed. Why would they kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?

#8  Neither are we a colony of Mexico. Shall we send back all of his subjects? Cut off wire transfers from the US from those with legal residence?
