Summary
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum dismissed reports of a potential U.S. “soft invasion” to combat cartels as “entirely a movie,” emphasizing Mexico’s sovereignty as a free, independent nation.
The Rolling Stone report claims Donald Trump’s incoming administration is considering covert military operations in Mexico, including airstrikes and assassinations of cartel leaders.
While Trump and key officials like Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio support such measures, experts warn they could backfire by boosting cartel recruitment, undermining Mexican sovereignty, and fostering cartel-Mexican authority collaboration.
Fuckin wild that we’re reading shit like this.
2016-2020 was filled to the brim with daily headlines of all the stupid, backward, hateful, fascist shit trump & co were up to. The next n years will be no better.
There’s a documentary about this situation on Paramount+ right now called Season 2 of Lioness
Any offensive attack against any central or south American country would cause a catastrophic chain of events that would end America as a global power. First it would not only put us at war with every central and South America country but most of the EU and UN nations. South and Central America countries would instantly nullify their anti nuclear weapon agreements. Add in the fact that a large percentage of US citizens have ties to those nation so instantly there would mass unrest in every state. Hell the military wouldn’t be able to mobilize enough people willing to kill friends and family for an offensive war.
This feels like musk motivation there it must be for lithium in Mexico.
If the fucker has 2 brain cells, he’d want a better battery.
Looking like Mexico will be Trump’s Poland.
Hopefully Mexico won’t announce they found oil or lithium near cartel territories anytime soon.
Mexico doesn’t have to announce it. The US is more than happy to make the announcement before them. Evidence includes “Yellow Cake”, “WMDs in Iraq”, and the fact that our incoming president lies without even thinking at all times.
Would the Mexican MAGAT voters support a US invasion of Mexico?
That is how tv “celebrity” trump views the world. Drama is his life’s blood.
As an American, I have no one to support in this escalating conflict.
Personally I think it’s high time Mexico accepts some help with their cartel problem. They’ve literally made zero progress after decades.
Legalise drugs and you collapse the cartels
Wrong, the demand for the illegal drugs is in the USA and you need to cut that off.
Personalmente, espero que no seas yankee
