“They will be designated ... I have been working on that for the last 90 days. You know, designation is not that easy, you have to go through a process, and we are well into that process,” Trump said in an interview aired on Tuesday with conservative media personality Bill O’Reilly.
Soon afterwards, Mexico’s foreign ministry issued a statement saying it would quickly seek a high-level meeting with U.S. State Department officials to address the legal designation as well as the flow of arms and money to organized crime.
“The foreign minister will establish contact with his counterpart, Michael R. Pompeo, in order to discuss this very important issue for the bilateral agenda,” the ministry said.
Once a particular group is designated as a terrorist organization, under U.S. law it is illegal for people in the United States to knowingly offer support and its members cannot enter the country and may be deported.
Financial institutions that become aware they have funds connected to the group must block the money and alert the U.S. Treasury Department.
Earlier this month, Trump had offered in a tweet to help Mexico “wage WAR on the drug cartels and wipe them off the face of the earth” in the aftermath of the bloodiest attack on U.S. citizens in Mexico for years.Three women and six children of dual U.S.-Mexican nationality were killed in the ambush in northern Mexico. Mexican authorities said they may have been victims of mistaken identity amid confrontations among drug gangs in the area.
Alex LeBaron, a former Mexican congressman and relative of some of the victims, on Twitter rejected the idea of a U.S. “invasion”.

What unvarnished bullshit! This is nothing more than some writers wet dream, to get people all spun up about something that is never going to happen. Nobody is stupid enough to invade Mexico. Even though folks down there hate the cartels, they would hate invades more and unify to resist. Sure, the US military could defeat any Mexican efforts to resist, but then we would be faced with an ongoing, everlasting low grade resistance war on our Southern Border that would pour over into mainland United States.
This entire piece is irresponsible journalism and should not be repeated on this blog.But hey, this is a place where people stir the shit pot on a regular basis.
La cagas, Juan. La cagas con esto. Ponte a ser un reportero de primera! Usted no es de segunda, como el Panson Barton o el Payaso Jerry. Duro! Duro!
Invasion no way but a few drones with well placed Hell Fire missles would be a good idea.
How do you want to call those animals?
Invasion? What an idiot!
Happy Thanksgiving Maggots!
You don't know shit. Time to go see about the nursing home, Montoya. Your brain is dead.
Texas officials order evacuations after new blast at chemical plant
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Authorities called for residents in four towns to flee their homes ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday following a new blast at an east Texas chemical plant that has been burning for more than 12 hours.
ARE YOU PEOPLE PREPARED TO DO THE SAME THING???
Those people were not US Citizens
And they too were not innocent!
I'm a Democrat, but Trump's move is the right move. We've wasted way too much time in mideast crap, when the real threat was here.
There is no Muslim terrorist more bloodthirsty than the cartels. They butcher, humiliate, hang up dead bodies of journalists, elected officials, they destroy any semblance of public order.
If only Reagan had bombed them in the 80's, but we couldn't. But now, we can't ignore it. All these immigrants knocking at our border are fleeing terrorist violence down south. Ask any of those people in the tents near Garcia's. Call a spade a spade, they didn't want to leave their homes, who ever would??? It was flee or die. They would still be in their beloved home countries, not trying to migrate here, if the terrorists hadn't gone wholesale murder and kidnapping on the population.
I've had relatives dismembered and put into ice coolers and then delivered to us by the cartels. To not call them terrorists is just denying facts. Keep talking shit Juan, you don't know what you are saying.
Mexico has no laws, but the mexican police and military Forces of Mexico are part of the cartel. They have no control of the gangs so, if you can't beat them, than join them. The people selling the arms to the cartels are the same Mexicans living in the U.S.
I am guessing, We shop at there stores, plaza, mall,warehouse, buy cars from them new and used. Eat at there restaurant, taquerias. Buy real estate, they build OUR homes, give great price at casa de cambio, loans interest free. Live in there country club. San Antonio good example. It is no secret. Brownsville is no different.
Pinche jente pendeja never seen so many cunts get all uppity defending these cunts beheading burning and chopping up people before. THEY ARE TERRORISTS GET OVER IT. Se les acabo el punche corrido putos.
TRUMP 2020
Legalize drugs and develop Mexico economically and these problems are solved.
Bad Hombres that's what el pendejo said
