... in late December, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Secretary of State Antony Blinken went to Mexico to meet with Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to ask for greater assistance. Those conversations were “preliminary,” the officials said, and did not result in hard promises from either side.

In a press conference on Friday, López Obrador called on the U.S. to approve a plan that would deploy $20 billion to Latin American and Caribbean countries, suspend the U.S. blockade of Cuba, remove all sanctions against Venezuela and grant at least 10 million Hispanics living in the U.S. the right to remain and work legally.

We should literally be doing everything AMLO is asking for, regardless of this deal. I know the guy is a bit of a blowhard, but it's good that Mexico actually has a leader that has policy goals that benefit Mexico and the rest of Latin America, rather than an American stooge.

He built a train he has the whole left world sphere behind him thats a lot of choo choo

Yeah, nah.

No leftie is going to support Russian imperialism.

This guy is a stooge and should be on the front lines of Ukraine experiencing his beloved Russia first hand.
