"According to the US Drug Enforcement Administration, 80% of the drugs that came into the US in 2012 came via maritime routes." The good news: Rather than a record flow, the amount of drugs coming over the US border with Mexico, measured by seizures by Customs and Border Protection, has trended down over the last five years. Made in America legally grown marijuana helped reduced the amount of MJ trafficked into the US - creating American jobs and tax dollars. The bad news: Drug cartels are switching to more high dollar-low volume cocaine and heroine smuggling to match greater US illegal drug demand from low addictive MJ to high addictive drug cocktails. http://www.businessinsider.com/how-much-drugs-are-seized-at-the-us-mexico-border-2016-10/#cocaine-seizures-at-the-southern-border-have-declined-but-larger-amounts-are-being-brought-in-through-other-routes-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHolmesJr Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 5 hours ago, iReason said: Flat out delusional gibberish. Just making stuff up. Next? From 2011: "MEXICO CITY — An aggressive U.S.-led effort to pursue money-laundering cases against Mexican cartels is inflicting only fleeting damage on the trafficking organizations, which have grown sensationally rich on drug profits from American consumers." "During the past 11 years, only $16 million tied to suspected Mexican traffickers has been blocked in the United States, or one dollar for every $20,000 estimated by the Congressional Research Service to flow southward from the United States to organized-crime groups in Mexico each year." "Mexican officials complain that the financial intelligence the United States shares with them is of little use, and that the information included in kingpin designations is unsupported by evidence that would allow Mexican courts to go after launderers." https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/americas/us-mexico-start-joint-effort-to-freeze-drug-kingpins-cash/2011/05/17/AGNawHCH_story.html there are hundreds of billions, if they know where to look…i cant show them everything can I?

Thaidream Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Trump seems to like picking fights with just about everyone and sometime soon he will find out they can fight back. He fails to realize Mexico will have soon have the 9th largest economy in the World and Mexico is a huge buyer of American agricultural products. Mexico can simply stop buying from America and go to alternate markets. Now Trump is after Canada- regarding putting taxes on Canadian exports of lumber. Trump Has also pissed off Australia by hanging upon on a call with the Australian PM over refugee issues. Of course, Trump never realize the Australians allow the US Marine Corps to base troops on Australian soil. Donald Trump in 100 days has accomplished nothing but angering American Allies; raising tensions in the World by using language that is dangerous and generally not having the slightest idea how to conduct any type of diplomacy. While I would not support a coup- I would support impeachment or the use of the 25th Amendment to remove him. When History is finally written- Trump will go down as the worst President of the United States. Let's hope he doesn't destroy the World first.

Thaidream Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hundred of Billions of Dollars spent on defense; 17 different intelligence agencies and Trump and his minions refuse to provide a real healthcare plan that does not penalize the elderly and poor and wants to raise the retirement age on elderly Americans and cut benefits so Americans have to work until they drop dead. Many Americans believed this demagogue and I tried to give him a chance. His chance is over. Donald you're fired. Oh, if were really that easy.

There is some support for that from some folks who would know.... [Donald Trump has a “dangerous mental illness” and is not fit to lead the US, a group of psychiatrists have warned during a conference at Yale University.] [Mental health experts claimed the President was “paranoid and delusional”, and said it was their “ethical responsibility” to warn the American public about the “dangers” Mr Trump’s psychological state poses to the country.] [Dr Gartner started an online petition earlier this year on calling for Mr Trump to be removed from office, which claims that he is “psychologically incapable of competently discharging the duties of President”. The petition has so far garnered more than 41,000 signatures.] [“And we respectfully request he be removed from office, according to article 4 of the 25th amendment to the Constitution, which states that the president will be replaced if he is 'unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office'."] https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/donald-trump-has-dangerous-mental-illness-say-psychiatry-experts-at-yale-conference/ar-BBA6XaI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump’s plan for a border wall is literally on shaky ground President Trump’s border wall appears to be on shaky ground — on Capitol Hill and on the rocky, shifty terrain where it’s slated to be built. Congress is showing signs that it might not approve funding for the wall, forcing the president to all but abandon plans to fulfill his promise for a barrier to keep immigrants from crossing the border from Mexico. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2017/04/26/trumps-plan-for-a-border-wall-is-literally-on-shaky-ground/?utm_term=.c5df155fbb4b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Mexico, a much more powerful nation than trump realizes, is wising up to trump's sleazy con man games. Good for them. Mexico and the USA should be great friends. Both nations will be "greater" that way. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/27/world/americas/mexico-trump-nafta-trade.html?_r=0 Quote “It seems like he’s sitting at a poker table bluffing rather than making serious decisions,” said Senator Armando Ríos Piter, a Mexican legislator. “In front of a bluffer, you always have to maintain a firm and dignified position.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
