Kirk Semple reports in the New York Times that, after tariff pressure from Trump, Mexico is finally cracking down on the flow of migrants from Central America into the U.S. Read more here.

Ace of Spades comments,
Neocons are in favor of ALL THE WARS, except threats of trade wars, which they vow we can never win.

Plus, a trade war could result in a loss of money for business and mercantile interests, which is completely unacceptable.

On the other hand, American boys' lives are pretty cheap.

Anyway, Mexico is now cracking down on the Mexican cottage industry of waypoints and smuggling infrastructure between Central America and into the United States.

...It astonishes me that that the deposed Neocon establishment is willing to lay down the lives of thousands of US troops to guarantee Iraq's territorial integrity but won't lay down one fat nickel per burrito to defend America's.

Who are the religious conservatives, again? Because I detect some people possessed of an irrational, dogmatic zealotry, and it's not the Christian coalition.
