Texas Sheriff Roy Boyd says their investigations have found the Mexican Government works directly with the cartels So much so, that America has given Mexico money to go after the cartel and instead the cartel was allowed to use the money to take out their enemies “The problem is the cartels and the government of Mexico have been in business for quite some time, that they're now to the point of almost being indistinguishable because the Mexican government is directly involved in the narcotics trade as well. In some of our investigations where the drugs weren't coming from the cartels. The drugs were actually coming from members of the Mexican government. And so I think that the only way to get Mexico to move and do something is to put those pressures on them. But you also have to realize, kind of like when we gave all that money to the Mexican government to go after the Sinaloa Cartel, did they go after the Sinaloa cartel? No, they went to the Sinaloa cartel and said, hey, we need to show the Americans that we're actually doing something. Who are the people you want eliminated? And so we basically spent our tax dollars in America to try to eliminate the Sinaloa cartel. And the Mexican government used that money to help Sinaloa cartel eliminate their competition. So if we're going to deal with the Mexican government, it has to be purely in a punitive measure. It can't be in a form of a grant or assets, because if you send it south of the border, it's going to be used for the benefit of the cartels.”

Joe Rogan explains why he started liking Trump.

UPDATE 2: I have decided on a path of treatment but won't be telling you the details because I think you know how that would go. My odds of survival have probably jumped from zero to 30%. I'll be working with top doctors in the field. Hey, you never know.

Daylight savings makes no sense, is counter what we know about light & heath, easy to fix & Dr Samer Hattar, Chief of the Section on Light & Circadian Rhythms @NIMHgov has said this many times. Tax-payer-allowed discoveries made this clear, so what more is needed to convince?

WAR: Biden is now sending tens of thousands of land mines to Ukraine. History has shown us that decades from now, long after the war is over, children will be killed by these deadly explosives - this will be Biden’s legacy. h/t @sentdefender
