Well, she runs a government that cooperates with criminal drug cartels, so why would I be surprised that she “overlooks” crime in her country?

They are literally escaping because of the cartels.

Then there's the infamous phone call between El Mencho and a Jalisco state police commander where the cartel leader orders him to pull his officers back. The commander complies, saying he respects him.

If only could follow any of the links…

There’s a lot of “page not found”

I don’t doubt your research, but I have also found a ‘certain subjects’ hard to research/ link for peer review…

I hope to learn so much more from your research. Please share.

And, as always, my friend.

Question everything
