TRUMP SHOULD EXTRADITE ERIC HOLDER: Mexico asks U.S. for answers over historic gun-running row.

 

Mexico’s president on Friday urged the United States to shed light on a gun-running sting that caused bilateral friction under the Obama presidency, questioning the behavior of past U.S. administrations for the third time this week.

 

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said his government would send a diplomatic note to Washington for information on the 2009-2011 operation known as ‘Fast and Furious,’ a topic that has resurfaced in recent days amid a debate over historic U.S.-Mexico cooperation on security and possible corruption under previous administrations.

 

Setting out to stop cross-border gun smuggling, the U.S. scheme allowed people to illegally buy arms in the United States and take them to Mexico so that the weapons could be tracked and lead law enforcement officials to drug cartel bosses. Some weapons were later blamed for gangland slayings in Mexico.

 

“How could this be? A government that invades in this way, that flagrantly violates sovereignty, international laws,” Lopez Obrador said at his daily news conference.

 

To avoid a repeat, the matter needed to be cleared up, said Lopez Obrador, who noted that President Donald Trump had last year been “respectful” to Mexico in discussions over joint co-operation following two major security incidents.

 

 

 

It wasn’t a scheme to stop cross-border smuggling. It was a scheme to send traceable guns to Mexico where their use in crime would be an excuse for stricter gun laws in America.

 

 It was another political abuse of law enforcement power, of the sort that was common under Obama, and the Trump Administration should help Mexico get to the bottom of it, and ensure that the wrongdoers are punished appropriately.

I LIKE THE CUT OF HER JIB: Nikki Haley Responds To Trump’s Actions Against China’s Huawei, Offers Grim Prediction For China.

In response to a Wall Street Journal report on the Trump administration crackdown on China’s Huawei, Haley, who has been hammering China for weeks over its role in the COVID-19 crisis, tweeted, “China will lose their bucket over this move. It is hands down the right move for us in terms of national security.”

 

Haley’s comment on national security is a reference to the administration’s repeated warnings about the threat posed by China’s attempt to dominate the 5G market.

 

The Trump administration’s new rule requiring licenses for foreign manufacturers to ship products to Huawei has already resulted in negative fallout for the Chinese company. As reported by Reuters Monday, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (TSMC), the world’s largest manufacturer of advanced microchips, has announced that it has stopped new orders from Huawei in response to the administration’s new rule.

Makes me wonder what retaliation the CCP is going to try to impose on Taiwan for this.
