. @gobmexico I'm not saying this is the only reason to do it, it would also be an exemplar of Mexican Leadership in North American energy production, a showcase to your neighbors to the north.

@ai6yr There was a battle in a place called Puebla, where the Mexican army defeated the French, who were on an unrelated note about to help the Confederacy. The French would go on to have some victories in their war with Mexico, but the 5th of May is not celebrated in the state of Puebla without good reason. #lang_en #mxPol #usPol #frPol
Is it a good idea for me to learn exactly where the nearest Canadian and Mexican consulates are in case one of their pilots goes down and needs directions to the nearest safe territory? #2amThought #USpol #CNDpol #MXpol #TrumpTariffs

Damn, you all to hell. Very dark times ahead #uspol #mxpol

It's been a few weeks since 911, which I always find somber, not only for the tragedy but the stupidity that followed.

Now, even more so because the judicial reform was also approved that day day. It might be great that we got our 1st woman president elected, but with judicial reform, militarization of the country, crime, and climate change, I forsee darker days ahead

Mexico’s first female president has stunning power. Can she use it?

Claudia Sheinbaum takes office with the largest mandate since Mexico became a democracy a quarter-century ago. She faces concerns about the economy, crime and a predecessor who might not go away.

The Washington Post

Somehow this is a direct quote from the US ambassador to Mexico

“The direct election of judges represents a risk for the functioning of Mexico’s democracy, ...,”

It is telling that a US official thinks that actual democracy (you know, the people having a voice in government) has no place in what he calls "democracy".
