Letter to XXX FL Herald XXX Editor about Mexico
17 Mar’23

Should we agree with Bill Barr and Senator Graham about dealing with Mexico?  YES!  It’s time to get tough with Mexico like President Polk did in May 1846, after the Mexican military crossed the Rio Grande, skirmished with our General Taylor’s troops, and the Mexican government refused to receive our foreign minister.  Polk said, as Biden should say now, “the cup of forbearance has been exhausted,” and Congress declared war on the Republic of Mexico.

Since neither Russia or China pay heed to the U.N. Charter they approved, there is no good reason why the U.S. Army shouldn’t take the Mexican Northern States of Sonora, Chihuahua, and Coahuila, stop the immigrant invasion, and clean-out all the inhumane cartels who are killing our children with drugs.  Let’s face it, the U.N. is kaput, and Mexico is effectively at virtual war with us. Enough talk, time for action!
