Team #Trump Is Actually Drawing Up Attack Plans for #Mexico

"A new directive signed last week by President Donald Trump gives the Pentagon authorization to use military force against Latin American drug cartels designated as terrorist organizations, according to administration sources.
"A U.S. official familiar with the matter confirmed to Rolling Stone certain details regarding the Trump-signed directive, which was first reported by The New York Times. Other knowledgeable sources, working in or close to this iteration of the Trump White House, say that unless Mexico gives Trump what he wants, this administration is serious about attacking its neighbor to the south. And according to administration officials and others familiar with the Trump administration preparations, it’s not a bluff: This American president wants to violently breach Mexico’s sovereignty — if and when he feels like it. He, after all, effectively campaigned on doing so during his 2024 bid."

Echo of the Golden Circle. I would not put it past him to try and annex vast swaths of Mexico. The Nazis in his orbit are probably itching to seize control over all of North America and put more brown people under their heel. This isn’t a new idea for the American Right Wing either. Remember that many of these people are also Neo-Confederates.
Because I know just how badly it would backfire I almost want them to try. Yes, Im cynical. #fascism #trump #uspol #mexico #gop https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/team-trump-mexico-cartels-military-attack-plans-1235407875/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_medium=activitypub
