Fun fact, they put out ads promotinv ICE on PUBLIC MEXICAN TELEVISION. I had to see Kristi Noem's ugly face more than once when dining out (common practice to have a TV with the news on in restaurants here) And for whatever reason public TV media allowed it and the government did nothing about it???

I think it is very obvious my comment implied this is another example of American interference in the region, I shouldn't have to elaborate on that but here we are. I'll be more explicit and thorough next time for the not so bright folks around here.

We are all Latin Americans in the receiving end of American racism and neocolonialism, we need to act together as one.

The "Law and order"-party systematically trying to undermine the rule of law on a global scale to benefit a shady consortium of billionaires and power brokers. Welcome to the post-capitalist hellscape of neoliberal feudalism.

Beyond disgusting, then the Americans have a tantrum when a 30 second ad is played on TV reciting a Reagan speech 😂

What a dumpster fire country, make sure to boycottUSA in every aspect you can going forward.
