"UNITED STATES PLANS TO START BOMBING MEXICO"

Fixed the headline.

Unhinged President is excited about bombing Mexico to distract from his utter failure of leadership.

Who had The United States bombs Mexico in 2025?

He designated cartels as foreign terrorist organizations through executive order on his inauguration day and also invoked the Alien Enemies Act. So ya, that actually was on the table since January.

Executive order: Designating Cartels And Other Organizations As Foreign Terrorist Organizations And Specially Designated Global Terrorists

Alien Enemies Act of 1798

Sadly, I actually did expect this to occur within the year. Idk if it’ll happen in the next couple months, but who tf knows.

I will not be surprised when he again forgets that New Mexico is a state, and he bombs us instead.

Trump is desperately trying to distract us from his failures.

He’s already doing it to Venezuelas fishing boats, without any evidence of them carrying drugs.

How about we drone strike the Trump-Epstein ballroom instead?

This is good. Mexico needs help dealing with its cartels.

Right now, anyone in the Mexican government who stands up to the cartels ends up putting themselves and their families at grave risk. Most of them have already been killed in a gruesome manner years ago, which is why none of them make it a priority now.

Here's hoping that giving our assistance will make it so cartels cannot threaten the Mexican people ever again.

Edit: "The Mexican Bukele," a mayor who stood up against the cartels was just killed in front of a crowd of people while under police protection: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/nov/02/mexican-mayor-killed-during-day-of-the-dead-celebrations

All the downvoters should really ask themselves if they're thinking about the subject, or just trying to fit in with their peers. I know what I'll put my money on, but I don't think most of you are capable of admitting when you're wrong if it goes against the crowd.

This is like someone breaking into your house, destroying everything but stealing all your unhealthy food to help with your diet.

[-] zaugofficial@lemmings.world -1 points 1 month ago

This is like everyone with reddit-brain trying to fit in with each other, even if it means defending cartels.

"My neighbor has a murderer in his house, so I'm going to blow it up. No, I'm not going to at least warn him first. Why do you ask?"
