EXCLUSIVA: Autoridades Mexicanas Siguen Sin Poder Detener a Líder de Cártel, Aquí Está Su Dirección … Otra Vez

Las autoridades mexicanas afirman estar buscando a un temido jefe de cártel que está detrás de la extorsión a productores de cítricos y agricultores de aguacate en Michoacán, así como de numerosos asesinatos y secuestros.

Two Americas on Public Safety: Abbott Highlights Texas’ Pro‑Police Record Amid Rising Anti‑Enforcement Rhetoric in Blue States

A deep national divide over public safety isn’t emerging — it’s already here, and it’s impossible to miss. In state after state, Democratic governors and big‑city sanctuary leaders have spent years tearing down law enforcement, tying the hands of federal agencies, and feeding a narrative that treats officers as political adversaries instead of public servants. And then there’s Texas. Governor Greg Abbott has built one of the strongest, most unapologetically pro‑law‑enforcement records in the country, and he hasn’t blinked once.

The arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro wasn’t just a takedown — it was the most forceful revival of the Monroe Doctrine in a generation, a blunt reminder that hostile regimes and cartel‑run states in the Western Hemisphere will face consequences.
