Rogue Judge Seeks to JAIL Mexican President
from Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast · host Soberanía Podcast
One judge in Mexico thinks she can overrule 36 million voters, ordering the president to unpublish the recently approved judicial reform and threatening to jail President Claudia Sheinbaum if she does not listen! Of course she doesn’t have the power to do so but her threats speak to the undemocratic attitude of the opposition and their allies. Soberanía podcast co-hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth also talk about the 38-year prison sentence for Felipe Calderon´s security head Genaro García Luna; as well as Donald Trump’s lies about Chinese automakers in Mexico. Kurt and José Luis also discuss Sheinbaum’s plans to build 1 million units of housing and her government’s efforts to improve children’s health. In our Losers and Haters section we talk about shallow, right-wing criticisms of Sheinbaum’s foreign policy.
