So many were waiting to see a Mexican cartel boss taken off the board. When the U.S. went into Venezuela, how many people shouted “What about Mexico?” And now suddenly supporting efforts to take out a kingpin is controversial? Since when did holding violent criminals accountable become a problem?
If acting against cartel bosses is considered “too escalatory,” then fear has already won. Terrorists and transnational criminals thrive when we let them convince us that enforcing consequences is riskier than letting them operate freely.
Strength is not recklessness, it is consistency. If we are serious about stopping violence, we do not apologize for holding its architects accountable. And if you are running a cartel today, take note. The current U.S. administration has made it clear that the era of assuming you are untouchable should be over.
Kaja Kallas' father, the ex Soviet boss Siim is also implicated on a massive scandal relating to a "disappearing" $10 million dollars.
The scandal (aka "10 miljoni dollari afäär") clings to Siim Kallas and his daughter like a bad smell.
During Estonia's chaotic post Soviet 1990s transition, huge amounts of public money "vanished" under his watch as Bank of Estonia president (1991–1995) but Kallas walked away compleltely unscathed? Instead of punishment he rose to PM, and laughably to EU Commissioner for anti-fraud.
All despite Kallas central bank giving a reckless $10 million transfer from the state North Estonian Bank to a shady Swiss/Italian operatorion (Abraham Sher, Vito Schiralli, Mario Bertelli's Villa Paradiso SRL)
Most of the cash ($7.5–10 million) promptly disappeared, lost to fraud, pocketed, or laundered abroad. Never recovered. Hard pressed Estonian Taxpayers were left to suck up the loss. Kallas and advisor Urmas Kaju faced charges of abuse of power, false info to auditors and prepping large scale embezzlement. The Trial dragged from 1998–2000 but suprise suprise the courts acquitted them.
Enter Siims daughter Kaja Kallas, an obscure, untalented failed Estonian politician suddenly becomes EU foreign policy chief?
The entire EU is rotten to the core.
RE: The 2026 U.S. Men’s Olympic Hockey Team
Some facts about our Olympians:
1. They don’t care if you knock their teeth out so long as they win. Grrrrrrr….
2. They are all Alpha Males.
3. They chug beers after games.
4. They know all the words to “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue.”
5. They are not afraid to publicly proclaim their patriotism, and they thanked our troops for their freedom.
6. Donald Trump and Kash Patel love them
.7. They love Donald Trump and Kash Patel
.8. They are going to be the President’s special guests at the State of the Union address in two days' time.
Mark my words, the propaganda is currently going out through all the required Democrat/Media Complex channels. The coordinated messaging will be “The Men’s hockey team is a bunch of racist, homophobic, misogynist, redneck white male colonialists who love Trump and his crimes. They are not and should not be welcome in decent society.”
Watch. It will take about 12 to 36 hours, and some variation of what I said will occur. Guaranteed.
I have spent a lot of time in Mexico including Vallarta.
Here's how things work. The tourist cities have always been relatively safe but the cartel influence is everywhere. The taxi industry, bars and restaurants. If a tourist buys drugs it is 100% certain that it originates from a cartel. The deal has always been that cartels get access to tourist dollars in exchange for keeping the peace.
For decades local officials have done informal deals to buy off cartels. It was always the easy way out until today, when it wasn't.
The acceptance of cartels has resulted in widespread corruption that has infected almost every institution in Mexico. Criminal organizations do not control territory in a country without officialdom being part of the problem.
The President of Mexico was flown to a naval ship because they couldn't guarantee her safety on land. Think about that in the context of who wields power.
Despite the bloodshed and violence that is sure to follow today's events it may mark a new beginning for Mexico. The old rules of official accommodation broke today and the Mexican economy is on the brink.
I can't imagine the US or any country allowing their citizens to be exposed to such violence. If foreign nationals are killed I think it's safe to say all bets are off.
Mexicans have long suffered under cartels and Mexico has been the distribution hub for fentanyl and other deadly drugs flooding our streets. Pray for the street level security forces putting themselves in harms way today and let's hope that their superiors have finally seen the light.
The status quo can't hold.
Don’t they always? Isn’t this the primary?
Will he come do my yard?
I can't understand why people still opt to go to London, France, Germany, the EU and Mexico given all the idiocy and crime allowed in their countries.
If he starts making arrests imagine the number of beers he could drink.
in congress to go get him.
I'm OK with the way the Mexican Military did it.
I feel really bad for those people. I can’t imagine it being that cold and snowy.
It’s supposed to get 81 today, but it’s in the 50s right now and I’m huddled in front of my heater waiting for it to get warm
I'll take the blizzard conditions over the fires that are still burning in my neck of the woods.
Thousands of livestock and structures have been destroyed. Several fire fighters are in the hospital for burns.
He still has to fly on government aircraft. It was Sunday.
You believe the Ashkenazi myth about the Jews?
Your rants make a ton of sense now.
