With Friends Like These: Mexico Reckons with Trump Admin Officials

from Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast · host Soberanía Podcast

…Who needs enemies? In this second episode from their brand spanking-new studio space, Kurt and José Luis discuss Claudia Sheinbaum’s taking one for the team by meeting with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in the final stop of Noem’s “cringe tour” through Latin America. They also discuss the media attempt to play up China’s supposed pivot away from Mexico and the extent to which any of the rumors of a distancing between Mexico and China have any truth to them. Mexico’s new Interoceanic Corridor linking the Atlantic and Pacific is now open for business, shaking up the geopolitical chessboard, and in the podcast’s much-loved “Losers and Haters” section, the hosts expose the pro-Trump account that is throwing the most shade at Mexico.
