I believe that while tending to America's drug issues infiltration from the Mexican Drug Cartels, we should not invade Mexico

However, if they reach out to us we should definitely offer assistance.

Yes I believe in this statement because we should never invade an ally for something that is stupid and can strain the relationship between us forever

 @BB6CN6L from Tennessee  agreed…4mos4MO

Military intervention without coordination risks escalating violence and damaging diplomatic relations. The smarter approach is partnership, intelligence sharing, and targeted cooperation — not invasion. Strength and restraint can coexist.

 @BB4GVSYPeace and Freedom from Arizona  agreed…4mos4MO

I do agree with this view. We should stop the issues of the Mexican Drug Cartels and do it in an orderly manner. By this, I mean cutting their ties with American buyers and prosecuting them.

 @BB4NQYN from California  agreed…4mos4MO

I believe that while tending to America's drug issues infiltration from the Mexican Drug Cartels, we should not invade Mexico. However, if they reach out to us we should definitely offer assistance.

 @BB68DDR from Texas  agreed…4mos4MO

We shouldn't meddle with the problems of others, as it can disrupt their system. If they need help we should definitely send people, but if they don't ask we should keep to ourselves.

 @BB4MVTP from Louisiana  agreed…4mos4MO

We don't need to invade Mexico. Mexico isn't the issue. We need to deal with the cartel. Work with Mexico to deal with cartel. If they don't want to help, then... \_(-_-)_/

 @BB4JRXFWomen’s Equality from California  agreed…4mos4MO

We should stop the Cartels from giving U.S. citizens drugs are a danger, but I also think that we shouldn't invade Mexico. There are better and more strategic ways to decrease this issue from becoming more dangerous.

 @BB4FP6P from Illinois  agreed…4mos4MO

The Mexican cartels bring the drugs into the U.S. and that kills many Americans and causes crime so it involves us so we need to stop it.

 @BB7RV7LDemocratagreed…4mos4MO

I agree with this comment because Mexico isn't ours to invade and it may create serious problems in the future.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”

Israeli Bombings Kill 2,300 In Lebanon in 3 weeks

Lebanese authorities say Israeli bombing has killed more than 2,300 people and injured almost 11,000, mostly in the past three weeks, with Israeli attacks reaching areas far beyond Hizbollah’s traditional bastions of support in the south.The Israeli military has ordered people living in more than a quarter of Lebanon to flee, according to a UN calculation, as its fight with the Iran-backed Shia militant group Hizbollah threatens to engulf the Mediterranean country.Lebanese authorities say Israeli bombing has killed more than 2,300 people and injured almost 11,000, mostly in the past three weeks, with Israeli attacks reaching areas far beyond Hizbollah’s traditional bastions of support in the south.More than 1mn people have fled their homes in Lebanon in under a month, according to its government, a dramatic forced movement of the population in a country of only about 5mn inhabitants with a land mass smaller than the US state of Connecticut. Israeli forces began a ground offensive in south Lebanon two weeks ago, in their fourth invasion of the country in under five decades. They had already destroyed large parts of the densely populated southern Beirut suburb where Hizbollah had its headquarters, and killed many top militant commanders in air strikes, including former leader Hassan Nasrallah.Rema Jamous Imseis, Middle East director of UNHCR, told journalists in Geneva that “over 25 per cent of [Lebanon is] under a direct Israeli military evacuation order”. “People are heeding these calls to evacuate and they’re fleeing with almost nothing,” she added, saying that 80 per cent of the shelters opened by the Lebanese government — mostly in schools — were now full.
