Recent leaks and reports highlight a concerning web of political operations threatening democracy across our region. Focusing on key operatives like Fernando Cerimedo and operations spanning countries like Bolivia and Mexico, it reveals how far-right networks are deploying neofascist tactics to expand their influence.
This pattern follows a calculated playbook:
Information & Digital Manipulation: Exploiting platforms (such as Telegram and messaging apps) to distort narratives and target political figures.
Between Trump’s Imperial Rhetoric and Sheinbaum’s Dignity: A Contrast in Leadership
Once again, Donald Trump used the podium at the UN General Assembly to deliver alarmist rhetoric and simplistic attacks against Mexico. In his usual condescending tone, the U.S. president sought to deflect attention from his own country’s internal issues by blaming his southern neighbor for regional security challenges.
Trump’s Aggression: Blaming Others to Evade Responsibility
During his address, Trump issued an ultimatum that undermines national sovereignty and demonstrates a profound ignorance of border dynamics:
«It’s unacceptable for the United States to share a 2,000-mile border with a territory controlled by enemy cartels. So Mexico must reclaim control of its soil from the enemies of humanity.»
This statement is not only an out-of-line provocation but a clear attempt to stigmatize an entire nation. Trump labels Mexico as a «controlled territory,» conveniently ignoring that the drug cartels are fueled by the insatiable demand for illicit drugs in the U.S. and the billions of dollars laundered through the American financial system.
Sheinbaum’s Firm Response: A Masterclass in Dignity and Sovereignty
Facing Trump’s bluster, President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo demonstrated during her morning press conference what true statecraft and sovereignty look like. Without resorting to cheap provocations or useless confrontation, Sheinbaum held up a mirror to Washington:
«I could say, ‘It is very difficult to live next to a country that has such a high level of illicit drug consumption.’ Or I could say, ‘It is very difficult to live next to a country with so much arms production,’ but I am not going to say it.»
With a single masterstroke, Sheinbaum shattered Washington’s one-sided narrative. Without raising her voice, she exposed the core hypocrisies of the issue: the relentless influx of high-powered military weapons crossing from the U.S. into Mexico and the unaddressed public health crisis driving drug demand in America.
Conclusion
While Trump relies on scapegoating and threats to placate his audience, Claudia Sheinbaum defends national dignity with diplomatic firmness. Mexico is nobody’s backyard, nor is it a nation that takes orders from Washington. Real bilateral progress requires mutual responsibility, not hypocritical lectures.
«Mexico Does Not Bow»: Claudia Sheinbaum Reaffirms National Sovereignty and Calls O ut U.S. Hypocrisy
With these firm words delivered to military troops assembled in Mexico City’s iconic Zócalo, President Claudia Sheinbaum delivered a powerful message on national sovereignty, historical resilience, and Mexico’s modern geopolitical stance.
Addressing the nation, Sheinbaum drew a direct line through Mexico’s history of standing up to foreign intervention. From the resistance following the 1810 independence movement to the U.S. invasion of 1846–1848—which forced Mexico to cede over half of its territory—she reminded the crowd that independence was hard-fought.
«Mexico will never be a colony or a protectorate of anyone,» she stated, making it clear that national autonomy remains non-negotiable.
When immigration policy is driven by politics rather than economic reality, the consequences are rarely confined to debate—they are felt directly in the marketplace. Recent economic data and independent studies confirm what many business leaders and analysts have warned for years: aggressive anti-immigration measures are actively undermining U.S. economic stability.
The combination of widespread ICE raids, strict enforcement campaigns, and mounting barriers to legal visas has done far more than alter demographic trends. It has created a self-inflicted blow to two fundamental pillars of economic health: the labor force and consumer confidence.
The Fallacy of a Reduced Workforce: Restricting immigration under the promise of protecting local jobs overlooks a basic market truth: modern supply chains and essential service sectors rely heavily on an international workforce. Shrinking this pool does not automatically create local prosperity; instead, it leaves critical positions unfilled, inflates costs, and slows productivity.
The Invisible Ripple Effect on Spending: An economy thrives when people feel secure enough to participate in it. Heightened restrictions and continuous raids foster an environment of uncertainty that suppresses consumer activity. When entire communities step back from everyday spending, local businesses across all industries feel the strain.
Immigration policy should be designed to strengthen a nation’s future, not choke its economic potential. Securing borders and upholding law are valid priorities, but when enforcement strategies ignore economic interdependence, the price is paid by businesses, consumers, and working families alike.

I saw this coming long time ago, and made a post about it last June 2020: Link>>READ HERE
When you allow the beast to rule, you create more hate and destruction. Extremist content on the web was raw material for the riot and insurrection that happened last January 6.
Now, -link>> the US Capitol Hill is gated in, there is less freedom for the people who respect the law to get close to such a beautiful and historic building, but a necessary measure to keep the domestic terrorists outside and protect the US Capitol edifice and the human beings (lawmakers, cleaning personal, secretaries, general help, etc) who work there.
We have to ask ourselves: Who is responsible for this? The pro-Trump media is part of the problem, that is for sure, but also the people who believe Trump’s lies and conspiracy theories. Now I wonder if this attack on life and freedom by Trump and Trump enablers is going to stop here or it’s going to continue and grow.
There are already 128 lawmakers who are radicalized. even after the terror on Capitol Hill happened and 5 people died, including one police officer.They voted for the objections to decertify some of the electoral votes. This was promoted by Trump.
Domestic terrorists making fun of precious history in Capitol Hill
It is very dangerous to have so many radicalized lawmakers, very dangerous for the future of the United States of America. I hope and wish that people, in their great wisdom, can vote them out before anything else or worse happens.
The green, white and black flag is based on a design similar to a Nazi flag.

CONCLUSION: Years of trump lies culminated in bloodshed.
Yes, I listen to the news around the world. From Japan to Australia, Germany, Italy, France, all Europe, Latin America. The whole world is watching one of the most important elections of our times. The future of United States of America is going to affect not only the American people, but also everyone around the world, even, when many of those people may live now from local trade and or production.
HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT IN MANHATTAN – JULY 2020
But, what to blog about today?
Inspirational or motivational post?
Food or travel?
OK, what to blog about when you don’t really like to blog about politics unless there is something totally corrupt and wrong going on that affects the lives of children, the elderly, the disabled, the weak and the strong, human life, all people, everybody’s lives and livelihoods.
Well, that is me: I do not like to blog about politics, because it is not my expertise, unless, anybody in the political arena of the world is hurting humanity ‘lives in anyway.
Oh, I know, I can blog about economics. That is something I know about, and frankly, I know a lot. I am a financial investor. But still, many people think that they know economics, medicine, mechanics, even physics because, they say: «I Googled it»!
So, nuh. What for? If they like Trump is because they think Trump is going to «make money for us». If Biden…, if Independent, If… well, everyone has her/his own right to their political opinion.
The only thing I would tell everybody is this: don’t ever let anybody take your dignity away, nobody.
TRUTH: The US is in deep deep financial trouble, and so it is the whole wide world. If some people still in denial, it is because they have had their heads buried in the sand for long time!
We can all enjoy life, live a healthy and happy life, even in times of trouble, only if we are brave enough to keep our dignity and respect for ourselves and each other.
I declare that lots of people have absolutely lost their marbles!
Racism doesn’t exist, but JFK Jr. is still alive and attends Trump rallies. @jordanklepper learns this and more at Trump’s COVID rally: pic.twitter.com/YqnkYcmt6g
BEFORE I START THIS POST, PLEASE READ: I am not affiliated to any political party. I am a free thinker and nobody owns me, nothing owns me. I owe nothing to nobody. So, no, I don’t hate Trump, I don’t love Obama nor vice versa. I just analyze publicly certain situations when I think they are out of control.
…And United States of America so called president (yes, with ‘p’ lower case) is out of control. It is chaos reigning in the world right now. If there is chaos in the USA, there is chaos in the world, simply because the US has been the leader of the globe for decades. And that -chaos- is not good for the USA and it is not good for theplanet.
I cannot call him «President Trump», because he might have the title but he does not behave like one. I have no respect for him at all. He is crude, rude, low class, vulgar, even perverse. Yes, I have been quiet, but he has gone too far. He is absolutely and irrefutable out of his mind, saying things like «there is a vaccine for AIDS» …. WHAT?! When I heard this, how can I say it without insulting him badly? ah, no, impossible to find a decent word.
What I cannot comprehend is why there are still many people who believe the words that come out of his mouth and follow him to his rallies. He is not «going to drain the swamp» people, because HE IS part of the swamp. He gives tax relieves to his friends. He hasn’t revealed his taxes because he has powerful friends who protect him from doing so, because it is good for what ever they are doing with him and through him: M.O.N.E.Y.
Worst of all, he has created a climate of hate, terrible fear and death. Frankly, I am making this post as a statement of my opposition to killing and the suppression of life. As a medical doctor I have the obligation and responsibility to save lives, to extend the lifespan of my patients, I make their lives more comfortable and help them live with physical and mental dignity.
Trump, with the hate that invades his tiny little mind, is infecting humanity and it’s my obligation to say it so, as a doctor. As a medical doctor I oppose the use of choke-holds, I oppose brutality and aggression against ANY human being. I will NEVER agree to the use of deadly force to control any type of situation (those that many hate groups, consider it to be «normal»!) Those are excuses to kill because of hate and rage.

MY FINAL THOUGHTS: Hate creates sadness, anxiety, depression, physical illnesses that can threaten human lives. Hate produces a huge increment in suicide numbers, a terrible loss of lives. STOP HATE! It is imperative that we stop hate. Yes, one person cannot stop violence in the world, but we can do something pro-love, against fear, against hate in our neck of the woods. If we defend and/or save one life in our lifetime, oh goodness, it’d be a wonderful thing. Let’s try to do it. Just one, one at a time. Let’s teach our children love and compassion, not fear, not hate.
Let’s teach love and compassion
These are some reports about HATE GROUPS in the US since the Trump Era
White nationalist hate groups in the US have increased 55% throughout the Trump era, according to a new report by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), and a “surging” racist movement continues to be driven by “a deep fear of demographic change”.
«Though the experts appear to understand the threat, they remain hamstrung by the Trump administration, which has hired members of hate groups into high-level positions and has on its staff people like Stephen Miller, the senior policy adviser in the White House who has long been allied with anti-immigrant hate groups,» it said.
The law center said the number of hate groups rose by 7 percent last year to 1,020, a 30 percent jump from 2014. That broadly echoes other worrying developments, including a 30 percent increase in the number of hate crimes reported to the F.B.I. from 2015 through 2017 and a surge of right-wing violence that the Anti-Defamation League said had killed at least 50 people in 2018.
