Executive Power and Foreign Policy
🏛️Trump's executive order designating Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations creates a potential loophole to bypass Congressional approval for military action in Mexico under the Authorization for Use of Military Force.
🌎The order could theoretically allow Trump to unilaterally authorize drone strikes, air strikes, and Special Forces operations in Mexico without traditional Congressional oversight.
Domestic and International Implications
🇲🇽This move is characterized as a "weasly slimy way" to potentially initiate regime change in Mexico and consolidate power, raising concerns about fascist tendencies and abuse of executive authority.
💰Critics argue the order could be exploited for personal gain, benefiting Trump and "Robert Baron buddies" like Elon Musk through potential resource acquisition in countries like Panama, Greenland, and Gaza.
Public Response
✊The video suggests a need for public resistance, calling for people to "put bodies in the streets", organize a general strike, and "stop the fascists" to counter what is perceived as an overreach of executive power.
