Problem 1: Calling the president of Mexico "cute" just because she is a woman.

Problem 2: Implying Claudia is "owned" by the Cartels, when she has consistently said that her goal is to address the underlying economic issues that cause criminal drug trafficking activity rather than escalating police violence in a futile effort to treat its symptoms, in the performative way American politicians do.

Problem 3: Implying Claudia is "owned" by Blackrock even though her new tariffs would harm Blackrock financially.

Problem 4: Implying Claudia is "owned" by China despite them playing no role in getting her elected and despite China's overall trade with Mexico being far less than the volume of trade they do with the United States.

Problem 5: Implying that Latin American drug cartels, the Blackrock corporation, and the Chinese Communist Party all have the SAME goals, which they bribe politicians to achieve.

Problem 6: Ignoring the fact that 99% of global north politicians are ACTUALLY controlled by corporate donors like Blackrock.

Problem 7: Naming your Twitter profile "The Investigative Centurion." My brother in Jupiter, Centurions were dumb fighting machines sent to Germany to bash in the skulls of tribal warlords so that senators and patricians in Rome could continue to profit off the exploitation of the peasant farmers and common soldiers.

Problem 8: Paying for a blue checkmark on Twitter.

Thank you for taking the slop bullet for the rest of us.

It makes sense that the USA State Department would want to 1) exacerbate the "problems" at the Mexican border and then 2) blame that all on China. Obviously we're not going to invade Mexico any time soon, but some kind of proxy war with China seems likely. Or at least, the threat of a conflict with China will become the main thing driving the USA's military-industrial complex in the mid-to-long term.
