On this episode of THE MODERN MEXICO PODCAST, host Nathaniel Parish Flannery speaks to historian Benjamin Smith (author of the book THE DOPE: THE REAL HISTORY OF THE MEXICAN DRUG TRADE) about the impact of the arrest of Sinaloa Cartel kingpin Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada. “El Mayo has had a very long history of almost five decades in the drug business. He started in the 1970s. He became a major exporter of cocaine. However, over the last decade or so El Mayo's importance has... been as a key mediator between the Sinaloa Cartel and the federal and state government. He's more of a political figure now. This is partly why people are worried about what's going to happen in Sinaloa," Smith explains. Smith says he gives Mexico's President Lopez Obrador a bad grade for his security policies. "AMLO's public attitude towards drug violence has been pretty depressing. He seems to delight in insulting civil society NGOs. He seems to denigrate victims. He excuses the military while at the same time talking very politely about narcos. He also appears to have made absolutely no effort whatsoever to improve the completely awful state of the judicial system," he says.

In this episode, Mariana speaks with Kenneth Smith Ramos, former Chief Negotiator of USMCA from the Mexican side and partner of AGON, about how the Constitutional Reforms proposed by President Lopez Obrador might weaken Mexico's judiciary and in doing so, impact the key principles of USMCA and other trade agreements such as impartiality, transparency, and nondiscriminatory practices. They also discuss measures North America could take to defend itself against predatory practices and the facts behind recent Chinese investments in Mexico. And, they speak about the upcoming 2026 mandatory review of USMCA and the negative implications of opening a full renegotiation.

Journalist and novelist Nicolás Medina Mora joins co-host V.V. Ganeshananthan and guest co-host Matt Gallagher to talk about Mexico's president-elect Claudia Sheinbaum, who will be the first woman and first Jewish person to lead the country. Medina Mora explains current president Andrés Manuel López Obrador's history, his hold on Mexico's political imagination, and how his connections to Sheinbaum will affect policy moving forward as he uses his last days in office to attempt 18 changes to Mexico's constitution. Medina Mora, who is an editor at the Mexican magazine Nexos, reflects on writing about Lopez Obrador through both fiction and journalism. He elaborates on a pre-election piece he wrote for The New York Review of Books and also reads from his novel, América del Norte, in which he plays with the relationship between fiction and nonfiction.

In this episode, Mariana speaks with Carlos Elizondo Mayer-Serra, a political science expert from Monterrey Tec, about Claudia Sheinbaum's landslide victory in the Mexican elections and explains why the financial markets negatively reacted to such a victory. They also discuss the Constitutional changes that President Lopez Obrador and his Morena party might try to pass now that they have the necessary votes, and the potential impact of those reforms on Claudia's presidency. They stress the various dilemmas Claudia will face while squaring the circle of achieving greater economic growth vs. greater power concentration.

Mexico's national elections on June2 were historic in many respects.  Most significantly is that Mexico elected its first woman, and first Jewish, President, and did so by an unprecedented margin.   In this Episode, I discuss the election and look toward Mexico's future by discussing the reaction of the Mexican markets to Mrs. Scheinbaum's election and evaluating how her presidency could impact Mexico's relationship with the United States. I also consider how outgoing President Lopez Obrador could influence Mexican policies even after he leaves office. Finally, I try to distill the myriad factors to assess potential changes in the Mexican government's efforts to combat the cartels.

Join Greg and Jim as they discuss Fauci's ugly bullying behind the vaccine mandates Covid mandates, Mexico's recent election of another far left leader and the potentially big implications for the U.S., and Biden's claim that Israel's war with Hamas is unnecessarily being prolonged to keep Netanyahu in power. First, they unload for the second straight day on former NIH official Anthony Fauci, who was sold as a symbol of trust to the American people. They specifically target comments exposed during Monday's hearings in which Fauci is heard saying they needd to threaten people trying to get an education or a job (or keep one) that they had to get the COVID vaccination. Fauci further said when you apply that kind of pressure, people have no choice but to abandon their ideologies and beliefs. Then, amid a swirl of breaking news, the Mexican presidential campaign and election went mostly unnoticed, until Claudia Sheinbaum was easily elected the new president. Sheinbaum, Mexico's first female and Jewish president, ran on a platform of continuing former President Lopez Obrador's policies and of expanding the government and consolidating power. The election, coming in conjunction with Biden's proposed border control, could have big implications for the United States relations and trade with Mexico. Finally, after supporting Israel for months, Biden turned tail and claimed that the prolonged war against Gaza is a power grab for Netanyahu and an attempt to occupy Gaza completely. Biden says that Hamas is no longer capable of carrying out another October 7th attack, and so, enough is enough. Biden claims that the war in Gaza is as bad as the American occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan and is unnecessary. 

Guardando las distancias, los resultados electorales de México se parecen mucho a los de RD. Por lo menos en los números. El voto dividido en tres dió 59 a Claudia Sheinbaum y 57 a Abinader, mientras que los opositores allá obtuvieron 28 y 10 y aqui el mismo 28 y 10. Las diferencias además del territorio y los millones de votantes es que en México no hay reelección y AMLO  se va con un 66% de aceptación y aquí Abinader se reeligió capitalizando su propia gestión. Si Lopez Obrador no hubiera sido un buen presidente Claudia Sheibaun no habría podido obtener 31 millones de votos, 300 mil más que su predecesor. Tampoco habría obtenido el carro lleno como dicen por allá porque ganaron 7 de 9 gobernaciones en juego. La mayoría calificada en la cámara de diputados y mayoría simple en el senado.  No tengo que decir que algo similar pasó en RD porque ustedes lo saben y el PRM barrió también en las elecciones congresuales y municipales. Desde ya Mexico se prepara para las reformas que Lopez Obrador no pudo hacer porque le faltaba fuerza congresual e incluso que esas reformas se harán antes de que la nueva presidenta tome posesión porque el congreso lo hace primero. El mundo no se ha acabado en Mexico como no se acabó cuando López Obrador ganó la presidencia después de 190 años de control del Pri-Pan. La oposición mexicana estaba tan golpeada que cedió con una candidatura femenina para enfrentar a la Sheinbaum que como jefa de gobierno de Ciudad de México gobierna más o menos tres repúblicas dominicanas. Hacer oposición al gobierno que sea es una necesidad de la democracia, un imperativo del equilibrio en la política. Eso diferencia al gobernante democrático de los reyes y dictadores. La oposición existe para oponerse, pero la oposición sin fundamento la desgasta y la corroe tanto como el ejercicio del poder. Pasó en México y puede pasar aqui. Escuchar a Radhames Jimenez decir que la fupu saldrá a la calle en contra de una reforma constitucional cuando su lider hizo una para regresar y Danilo otra para quedarse y él no dijo esta boca es mía, es risible. Escuchar a Tobias Crespo decir que se opondrá a una reforma fiscal que hasta ahora es una intención, porque no existe una propuesta, habla de por dónde van los tiros. La oposición tiene que partir de una critica creible y fundamentada para que le aporte al país, el resto es choteo.

Au Mexique, Claudia Sheinbaum a été largement élue ce dimanche (2 juin 2024), avec 58 à 60% des voix selon les premiers résultats partiels. Sa concurrente, l'ex-sénatrice de centre-droit Xochitl Galvez, a reconnu dans la nuit sa défaite. Portée par la popularité du président sortant, Claudia Sheinbaum devient la première femme à présider le pays. La fête a duré jusque tard dans la nuit, la candidate de gauche est venue saluer la foule, insistant sur le fait qu'après 200 ans de République, elle allait devenir la première femme présidente du Mexique. Claudi Sheinbaum est revenue sur son programme, et a promis à nouveau un gouvernement de la continuité, rapporte la correspondante de RFI Gwendolina Duval : « ce sera un gouvernement de l'austérité, de la discipline financière et fiscale, et avec l'autonomie de la Banque centrale du Mexique ».Hélène Combes, directrice de recherches au CNRS, en ce moment au Mexique, rappelle qu'il y avait environ 50 000 homicides par an au Mexique, entre insécurité ordinaire, présence des cartels et afflux d'armes venant illégalement des États-Unis. Un défi qui dépasse donc largement l'échelle nationale. « Ce que propose Claudia Sheinbaum, qui avait amélioré les conditions de sécurité de manière très nette à Mexico (lorsqu'elle était maire), c'est réduire le taux d'impunité qui est très élevé, lié à des problèmes d'organisation du pouvoir judiciaire et à des méthodes d'enquête », explique Hélène Combes, qui parle de « tâche absolument titanesque ».Le défi va aussi être sur le front des politiques sociales : « il y a eu des améliorations pendant la période de Lopez Obrador, la pauvreté a diminué de manière significative mais on partait de très loin ». Le Mexique n'est pas un pays pauvre, c'est un pays inégalitaire, insiste la chercheuse.La presse mexicaine revient sur les différents dossiers qui attendent la présidente. Un éditorialiste de La Razon explique qu'il aurait aimé se réveiller, après avoir voté ce dimanche (2 juin 2024), dans un pays sans corruption, où le système de santé est le même qu'au Danemark, où l'on peut sortir sans danger dans les rues, où les milliers de disparus ont été retrouvés, où la pauvreté a été éradiquée et où les impôts sont bien utilisés : « Malheureusement, ce n'est pas le cas ». « En plus de participer aux élections », écrit le journaliste, « nous devons travailler chaque jour pour faire avancer notre pays. Nous avons voté, l'autre partie du travail consiste à exiger des résultats de la part de ceux qui ont été élus. » Et peut-être aussi de travailler ensemble : si dans Milenio, on se félicite que « le vote d'hier ne laisse planer aucun doute sur la légitimité de l'ancienne cheffe de gouvernement à gouverner », et on souligne la faiblesse des partis d'opposition révélée, selon l'éditorialiste, par ces élections, dans El Universal, un soutien de la nouvelle présidente, le sénateur Ricardo Monreal Avila, semble tendre la main à « tous ceux qui veulent un Mexique meilleur » : « nous ne devons pas laisser de côté ceux qui ne partagent pas notre vision – ces voix ne seront pas ignorées (…) notre mouvement est pleinement engagé pour la démocratie, la pluralité et l'intégration de toutes les forces de notre pays ».Enfin, Claudia Sheinbaum a aussi beaucoup parlé des femmes ce dimanche. Hélène Combes parle d'un « engagement réel de la classe politique mexicaine », et d'une « féminisation profonde de la société mexicaine depuis une trentaine d'années, à tous les niveaux » - le pays est un des pays les plus féminisés au monde au niveau du personnel législatif. Son féminisme est donc à remettre dans un contexte plus global « d'étapes qui ont déjà été gagnées dans l'espace politique au Mexique ». Le féminisme de la nouvelle présidente est aussi très ancré, explique la chercheuse, dans ce qu'on appelle en Amérique latine le « féminisme populaire », qui s'intéresse aux femmes des milieux populaires, « et qui peut être un peu différent des attentes que peuvent avoir les classes moyennes en termes de remises en cause de la société patriarcale ». Les démêlés judiciaires de Donald Trump et Hunter Biden    Aux États-Unis, Donald Trump avertit qu'une peine de prison pourrait être « un point de rupture » pour ses soutiens.Dans l'interview que l'ancien président a accordée à Fox News diffusée ce dimanche (2 juin), il a aussi répété que pour lui le verdict dans l'affaire Stormy Daniels est « le résultat d'une justice utilisée contre lui comme une arme et que son équipe compte faire appel », écrit Politico. Le candidat à la présidentielle a ajouté que le procès a été « très dur » pour sa famille, particulièrement pour sa femme.Du côté de la famille Biden, le procès du fils du président commence ce lundi (3 juin 2024).Hunter Biden est accusé, rappelle le Washington Post, d'avoir menti lors de l'obtention d'une arme et de posséder illégalement ladite arme. Hunter Biden « n'est pas une figure politique, et les accusations qui le visent n'ont rien à voir avec son père, mais », souligne le quotidien, « c'est quand même un moment extraordinaire : il est jugé alors que le président Biden vit les tourments de sa campagne de réélection ». Et, souligne le Washington Post, « le procès menace de révéler certains des moments les plus douloureux et tumultueux de la famille Biden dans un procès public ». Politico note de son côté que les deux juges qui s'occupent des procès de Hunter Biden (car il y en aura un autre au mois de septembre 2024, pour fraude fiscale) « ont beaucoup de choses en commun », entre autres, ils ont été tous les deux nommés par Donald Trump. Un éditorialiste du New York Times estime qu'Hunter Biden « ferait mieux de plaider coupable. Rapidement. : un procès embarrassant qu'il a de bonnes chances de perdre ne ferait qu'aggraver la situation ».À lire aussiÉtats-Unis: pas de verdict trouvé sur l'affaire Donald Trump-Stormy Daniels au premier jour de délibérationsÀ lire aussiÉtats-Unis: le fils de Joe Biden devant la justice pour détention illégale d'arme à feuLe Journal de La 1èreLes « algues sargasses » déferlent une nouvelle fois sur les côtes guadeloupéennes…À lire aussiVers une année noire pour les échouements de sargasses sur les côtes atlantiques

Mexico's presidential election on 2 June comes at a time of declining crude and natural gas production and uncertainty over the country's transition to cleaner fuels and more reliable power generation. If Claudia Sheinbaum wins, as is widely expected, will she continue Lopez Obrador's policy of restricting private sector involvement in Mexico's energy industry? Why has Mexico's crude oil production fallen to its lowest level in 40 years? Will Mexico continue to push to reduce its dependence on refined product imports? In this Oil Markets podcast episode, Jeff Mower, director of Americas oil news, is joined by energy reporter Sheky Espejo for a wide-ranging discussion on these topics and more.  

Au Mexique, l'élection présidentielle prévue dimanche 2 juin devrait donner la victoire à Claudia Sheinbaum, la candidate adoubée par le président en exercice. Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, surnommé AMLO, a un bilan mitigé sur le plan économique, il bénéficie pourtant d'une popularité record, nourrie par ses succès dans la lutte contre la pauvreté. Quelque 57 % des Mexicains estiment que l'économie va mieux, 73 % que le niveau de vie a augmenté. Cette photo de l'opinion publique prise par l'institut Gallup peut faire pâlir d'envie bien des chefs d'État. Elle reflète les progrès réels enregistrés depuis l'arrivée au pouvoir de Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, dit AMLO. Sous l'impulsion de ce président de gauche, élu sur un programme de rupture, le salaire minimum a quasiment doublé en six ans. Les transferts sociaux, notamment en faveur des retraités, ont fortement augmenté. Cinq millions de Mexicains sont ainsi sortis de la pauvreté. Pour tenir cette promesse sans laisser dériver les dépenses publiques, le président mexicain a en revanche sacrifié l'éducation et à la santé. Leur poids relatif dans le budget a baissé, il est maintenant inférieur au niveau considéré par le FMI comme minimum pour assurer le développement.À lire aussiÉlections générales au Mexique: la campagne la plus meurtrière de l'histoire du paysUne croissance décevanteL'autre bémol pointé par le FMI : la faiblesse de la croissance. Elle est de 1 % en moyenne depuis six ans. C'est anémique pour la quatorzième économie mondiale. C'est nettement moins bon que sous les présidents précédents. Et médiocre comparé aux autres pays d'Amérique latine. Sur la même période, le Mexique fait à peine mieux que l'Argentine et l'Équateur, les lanternes rouges de la région. Le Mexique a pourtant un sérieux atout : son grand voisin américain, dont il est devenu l'an dernier le premier partenaire commercial.Le Mexique, premier partenaire commercial des États-UnisLe Mexique est le grand gagnant de la guerre commerciale entre la Chine et les États-Unis. Grâce aux relocalisations de l'industrie. Cette aubaine n'a pas pour autant galvanisé la croissance. Les investisseurs étrangers sont rebutés par la piètre qualité des services. La distribution de l'eau et de l'électricité laisse à désirer, les routes sont dans un état piteux. Seules les sociétés déjà présentes ont agrandi leurs usines, mais pour le moment, il n'y a pas de ruée de nouveaux venus. Si le président du Mexique a réussi à limiter les inégalités, il n'a pas vraiment lancé les grands chantiers nécessaires pour accélérer le développement et résorber le fossé entre le nord, très prospère, tourné vers les États-Unis, et le sud du pays, encore déshérité. La raffinerie et le train des mayas destinés à doper le tourisme, deux infrastructures construites dans l'État du Tabasco, n'ont pas encore produit les effets escomptés.Une transition énergétique en panneLe Mexique accuse aussi un gros retard dans la transition énergétique. Seulement 10% du courant provient des énergies renouvelables. Le président a favorisé les services publics basés sur le pétrole, dont le pays était un exportateur net jusqu'en 2019. Mais la Pemex, la société nationale des hydrocarbures, est à bout de souffle. C'est aujourd'hui la société pétrolière la plus endettée au monde. L'État, qui l'a longtemps considéré comme sa vache à lait, la soutient aujourd'hui bout de bras, à contre-courant de ses objectifs officiels de décarbonation.À lire aussiMexique : Claudia Sheinbaum, probable successeur au président sortant Lopez Obrador

Pour la première fois de l'histoire du Mexique, une femme est en position de remporter l'élection présidentielle du 2 juin 2024. Candidate du Mouvement de régénération nationale (Morena), parti de gauche de l'actuel président au pouvoir, Claudia Sheinbaum pourrait bien succéder à Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) qui avait été élu président du Mexique en 2018, à l'issue d'une campagne au cours de laquelle il avait promis de réduire la corruption, l'impunité et l'insécurité. Face à Claudia Sheinbaum, une autre femme, Xochitl Galvez, chef de file de l'opposition de droite au parti au pouvoir, candidate d'une coalition de trois mouvements le Parti de l'Action Nationale, PAN, le Parti de la Révolution Institutionnelle, PRI et le Parti de la révolution démocratique, PRD. La candidate qui gagnera l'élection présidentielle aura plusieurs défis de taille. Le pays connait une économie stagnante et un taux de criminalité élevé. Les femmes mexicaines devraient sortir gagnantes de cette élection alors que le Mexique est souvent décrit comme ayant une culture machiste et que plus de dix femmes y sont tuées chaque jour. La campagne électorale s'est déroulée dans un contexte de grande violence, constituée d'attaques et d'assassinats, symboles de la présence du crime organisé au sein de la vie politique. L'élection du 2 juin se veut historique, elle est la plus large jamais organisée, que ce soit au niveau du nombre de votants 98 millions, qu'à celui des postes à pourvoir. 628 sièges au Congrès, 9 gouvernorats sur 32 États et une myriade d'élus locaux.  Invités : Hélène Combes, directrice de recherche au CNRS, rattachée au CERI de Sciences Po. « De la rue à la présidence.

Es común oir que el estado de la economia de un pais juega un enorme parte en sus procesos electorales. En los noventas, la campaña de Bill Clinton ganó, en parte, por afirmar “es la economia, estupido” mientras que Lopez Obrador ganó asegurando que, para él, serían “primero los pobres”. Sin embargo, para la generación-z, el estado de la economía es algo difuso, que sólo se vuelve más presente cuando empiezan a considerar sus perspectivas de futuro, a pensar en qué van a hacer, y si haciéndolo les va a alcanzar para vivir dignamente En este episodio nos acompaña Santiago Capraro, académico de la Facultad de Economía para hablar sobre lo que es la pobreza en México, y cómo se mide. También discutiremos sobre movilidad social y de lo que debería hacer un gobierno para tratar de fomentarla y, con ello, reducir la pobreza

Faltan menos de tres meses para las elecciones presidenciales en México y el ambiente político no podría estar más caldeado. Las campañas iniciaron formalmente el pasado 01 de marzo pero gran parte de las discusiones se han centrado en las polémicas que envuelven al actual presidente Lopez Obrador.Por eso hablamos con Agustín Basave:  político, académico, escritor y diplomático mexicano que recientemente colaboró en la producción del libro: '¿Qué podemos hacer por la democracia?'

In this episode, Mariana speaks with Andrew Selee, President of the Migration Policy Institute and Carlos Heredia Associate Professor at CIDE about the facts and the politics in both the U.S. and Mexico behind the surge in immigration flows. They dive deep into the facts to understand what is attracting so many people—not only from Mexico or Central America but also from China, India, Africa, and the Middle East—to risk their lives (and a lot of money) to cross the border illegally. They also speak about the impact that immigration is having on the Mexican side of the border, they discuss what the current bipartisan Senate immigration bill would achieve, if it ever became law, and how to improve the current asylum system which is being abused. They analyze what the United States could do to improve border security, how governments are using migrants for political gain, and how President Lopez Obrador from Mexico is gaming the system.

Original Air Date - March 29, 2023 Celebrating democracy seems like a good idea. Further, President Biden and his team have been actively supporting democracy worldwide since they took office. But that doesn't mean hosting a democracy summit is a great idea. Because a lot of difficult questions are raised. Like who thinks they're a democracy but really isn't? What do you do with wannabe authoritarians like Netanyahu, Modi & Lopez Obrador? And what long term results can come from these summits. We discuss with Kori Schake, Rosa Brooks and Ed Luce. Join us.

Pub Membership Plug: Public Houses, or Pubs, are not just places to drink beer, wine, cider or even something a little stronger. It is also a unique social centre, very often the focus of community life in villages, towns and cities throughout the length and breadth of the world. We here at CrossPolitic hope to emulate that for you and yours. That’s why you should grab yourself a pub membership at fightlaughfeast.com… we need you on this ride with us.

House Oversight member Nancy Mace addressed Biden directly. https://twitter.com/i/status/1745105809439150194 - Play Video When Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene began speaking Hunter Biden stormed out, with Greene telling him as he left, "Apparently you’re afraid of my words." https://twitter.com/i/status/1745108562043437517 - Play 0:00-0:39 Then as Hunter Biden was exiting the building, a man asked him on numerous occasions, “are you on crack today?” https://twitter.com/i/status/1745107221992632623 - Play Video Hunter Biden attorney Abbe Lowell addressed reporters in the halls of Congress, saying that "Republicans have sought to use [Hunter Biden} as a surrogate to attack his father." Lowell said that "we have offered to work with House committees to see what and how relevant information to any legitimate inquiry could be provided." "Our first five offers were ignored. And then in November, they issued a subpoena for a behind-closed-doors deposition, a tactic that the Republicans have repeatedly misused in their political crusade to selectively leave and mischaracterize what witnesses have said." Hunter Biden was subpoenaed to appear for a closed-door deposition on December 13, 2023. He refused to attend this deposition, instead speaking from the Capitol lawn. Hunter Biden declared that he would only appear in a public session, but Committee on House Administration rules states that depositions of a witness are to take place only in the presence of the "Committee, Committee staff designed by the Chairman or the ranking minority member, an official reporter, the witness, and the witness’ two designated attorneys." Hunter Biden, however, doesn't think this rule should apply to him. https://www.theblaze.com/news/mexican-president-demands-20-billion-and-work-permits-for-10-million-hispanics-before-offering-immigration-help Mexican president demands $20 billion and work permits for 10 million Hispanics before offering immigration help Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador recently revealed what that U.S. must do in order for the Mexican government to help slow down the flow of migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, and the price is steep. Fox News Digital reported that Lopez Obrador announced his demands during a press conference on Friday. The development comes just a week after the Mexican president met with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Mexico City. In order for Mexico to help the U.S., Lopez Obrador demanded that the U.S. provide $20 billion to Latin American and Caribbean countries; provide work visas to 10 million Hispanics who have been working in the U.S. for at least 10 years; end sanctions against Venezuela; and put an end to the blockade of Cuba. The demands have put pressure on President Joe Biden, who has not polled well on illegal immigration since he took over the presidency in 2021. The report noted that the border experienced a large surge of migrants this fall, with around 240,000 encounters per month toward the end of 2023. However, some of the decisions — if Biden decides to go through with the proposal — would need to get the approval of Congress. Lopez Obrador has not been shy about challenging U.S. politicians on the topic of illegal immigration. He recently challenged Texas Governor Greg Abbott on one of the state's new immigration laws just last month. Blaze News reported last month that Abbott had ratified legislation that would make illegal immigration a state crime. The law, Senate Bill 4, moved forward after the Biden administration seemed unwilling to enforce federal immigration law. The state authorities will now be able to arrest foreign nationals who sneak into the country illegally, and magistrates will be able to order illegal aliens to leave the country. Lopez Obrador said last month: "The Texas governor acts that way because he wants to be the Republican vice presidential candidate and wants to win popularity with these measures." "He’s not going to win anything. On the contrary, he is going to lose support because there are a lot of Mexicans in Texas, a lot of migrants." However, the law recently ratified in Texas will not punish those who enter the country legally — only those who attempt to circumvent U.S. law. https://notthebee.com/article/parents-who-refuse-to-go-along-with-their-childs-gender-transition-can-now-face-7-years-in-jail-in-scotland Scottish parents could face years in jail for preventing kids from "dressing in a way that reflects their sexual orientation or gender identity" Scotland is really making it simple for parents. Let them trans your kids or you go to jail. You may think that's overstatement, but that's actually the plan in Scotland. Parents who do not go along with "affirming" their child's "gender identity" could face jail for SEVEN YEARS! Proposals published on Tuesday state that actions designed to "change or suppress" another individual's gender identity, causing them physical or psychological harm, would become illegal under the radical law. SNP (Scotland National Party) ministers acknowledged that so-called conversion practices often took place in a "family setting", raising the prospect that parents could be criminalised if they refuse to go along with their child's declaration that they are transgender. Just so you know the extent of this proposal and how it could apply to families, one of the examples of "conversion therapy" punishable by jail time is preventing a child from wearing clothing of their preferred gender identity. So if Billy wants to wear a dress and you stop him you would be guilty of "conversion therapy" and be subject to punishment under the law. Even if you don't do anything, the state could preemptively take action against you based solely on your beliefs! If they know you're a conservative Christian in Scotland they could issue civil orders against you, warning you not to cross the line of telling your kids what to do. The Scottish National Party is currently the largest and most represented party in parliament. They hold nearly a majority in the multi-party system. If they're fully on board with this there's not much that can be done to stop them in parliament. It's important to note this is in the "public consultation" phase which, in Scotland and the UK, means they have to lay out the plan for public feedback, in this case until April, before moving forward with the proposal. So my suggestion, between now and April, is for every freedom and faith-loving Scot to channel his inner Braveheart and publicly oppose this radical anti-family, anti-faith, anti-human proposal from the Scottish liberals. Braveheart - FREEDOM- Play 1:36-1:47 https://mynorthwest.com/3945835/rantz-wa-democrats-deem-ammo-privilege-ammunition-tax-way-end-gun-rights/ Wash. Democrats deem ammo a ‘privilege’ as way to end gun rights Washington Democrats opened the 2024 legislative session with another assault on gun rights. This time they hope to reclassify ammunition as a “privilege” — one that should be subject to an onerous tax because the one thing they love more than taking away guns is taking away your money. State Representatives My-Linh Thai and Liz Berry, both Democrats, introduced House Bill 2238. Under the auspices of public safety, claiming access to ammunition is the cause of violence and not their soft-on-crime policies that go easy on criminals (including those who use guns in their crimes), the bill imposes an 11% sales and use tax on ammunition statewide. This would be an additional tax on top of the sales tax and any other tax that may levied when purchasing ammunition. The city of Seattle, for example, imposes a per-round tax. But the bill also reclassified ammunition, claiming you do not have a right to purchase them as a consumer. Instead, it’s labeled a “privilege.” The legislation creates a new section in pre-existing law that reads, “A use tax is levied on every person in this state for the privilege of using ammunition as a consumer at the rate of 11% of the selling price.” Neither Reps. Thai nor Berry responded to inquiries asking the basis for their claim that ammunition is a privilege. But Washington Democrats have set the stage to make this outrageous claim. Washington Democrats have consistently moved to make gun ownership more onerous for non-criminal Washingtonians. The end goal for Democrats is to ban guns so that we cannot protect ourselves against the criminals they embolden. Instead of a flat-out ban against guns, they’ve hoped to reclassify ammunition as a privilege by severely restricting how much of it a gun owner can use at a time. The Washington Legislature approved a bill to prohibit the sale, distribution, and manufacture of firearm magazines holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. This is meant to set the precedent claiming Washingtonians do not have a constitutional right to ammunition. Like most of their clearly unconstitutional bills, they’re based on a flimsy and purposefully obtuse understanding of the right to bear arms. The Washington State Constitution, Article I, Section 24, clearly states that “the right of the individual citizen to bear arms in defense of himself, or the state, shall not be impaired.” You cannot bear arms if the firearm has no ammunition in it. This provision, like the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, implicitly includes all necessary components of firearms like ammunition as essential to the protected exercise of the right to bear arms. Without access to ammunition, the right to bear arms would be rendered meaningless, as firearms without ammunition are unable to fulfill their intended purpose in defense of oneself or the state. In an ironic twist, Democrats are the best gun salesmen. Their actions are pushing Washingtonians into purchases they might not otherwise make. Washington Democrats’ interest in banning guns does not extend to the criminals they support with legislation that keeps them out of prison before the end of their sentences under the claim the criminal justice system is racist. By passing legislation that is clearly tied to the rise in crime, they give every Washingtonian ample reason to purchase firearms for self-defense. We have a rise in violent crime in Seattle, where homicides have hit historic highs. Democrats pretend they hold no blame in this new reality. State Reps Tarra Simmons and David Hackney pushed a bill in the 2022 legislative session to lessen charges against drive-by shooters. It would even be applied retroactively to release a drive-by shooter serving time. They claimed the change promoted “racial equity in the criminal legal system” because they implied too many black people commit drive-by shootings and it’s unfair for them to be charged more than white people who don’t commit as many drive-by shootings. It was as silly an argument as it was racist. Only after considerable public pushback, did the bill die. But it seems reasonable to want a firearm to protect yourself when you have pro-criminal legislators pushing dangerous bills. State Rep. Roger Goodman, another anti-gun Democrat, is back this year with HB 1268. It would prevent judges from offering additional years of prison to violent criminals who use guns during their crimes (“stacking” on gun enhancement charges). It even offers “good time credits” (or earned release time) to felons serving time on a firearm or deadly weapon enhancement. Any one of these criminals released early is reason enough to own a firearm of your own.
