Video shows Mexican cartel executing 20 people. It’s crazy how much more closely the US pays attention to violence in the Middle East compared to Mexico, probably because violence in Mexico isn’t an excuse to funnel money to foreign policy elite. https://t.co/4vbKXTXegm

I am trying to understand the actual complexity of the situation that the Biden administration, and Kamala Harris in particular, are dealing with when a large crowd of emigres appear on our southern border. Because Harris is charged with dealing with stabilizing Latin America border situations so that happens less frequently. Now a huge number of Haitians appearing at once on Mexico's northern border, and how they got there, and why Mexico itself let them in, that's is a real new one. Then finding out that many have not actually been in Haiti since 2010 complicates it further.

We find that it's not as simple as a bunch of Haitians fleeing directly from Haiti.

When given the job months ago, she had specifically made a speech declaring loudly that our borders are not open and warning refugees not to come to the border. That was not targeted at Haitians because that's one nobody in the U.S. expected, the message was targeted to Central Americans.

Harris has to deal with considering all the above news. And the fact that analysts have already told her that many Mexican citizens think like this about their own adminstration:

Respected @JoeBiden @POTUS:

As a Mexican citizen, I do not back, endorse or support ANY declarations, resolutions, actions or any other expression said or performed by the criminal under the name of and offender Andrés Manuel López Obrador @lopezobrador_...

@POTUS @VP please help us to defeat Obrador. He and his party (MORENA) can not handle México https://t.co/uDZC9TNB8T

and as always, Covid control worldwide is an important consideration. Many just plain visitors have to jump through hoops for a travel visa to the U.S. at this time, if they can get approval at all.

Hi. This thread is about an ordeal I just in the Mexican immigration system. It's about my experience but it's more about what's going on for the 100s of men from Haiti, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Colombia, and elsewhere still locked up there. [1/21]

I was released yesterday from the notorious Las Ajugas federal immigration detention center in Mexico City after 24 days incarcerated, run by @INAMI_Mx. My crime was an expired (by 2 months) tourist visa. I was deported, blessedly, back to Canada. [2/21]

I would have been released a few weeks sooner but I contracted COVID while in detention — they have zero health protocols except loose mask enforcement... and overcrowding makes infection highly probable. No testing upon entry, only prior to deportation. [3/21]

go to the thread to read the whole 21 tweets, I will just emphasize this one later in the thread:

Haïtians in particular were recipients of contempt and neglect. One of them was very sick for days with circulation and breathing problems and received next to no medical aid, carted back to the locked cell block on a stretcher rather than take him to a hospital. [13/21]

“What created the tension this time is that Mexico’s immigration policy has been transformed,” said Tonatiuh Guillén, a former migration chief.“We’ve internalized the U.S. approach to closing ourselves off to migration.” ⁦@ksieff⁩ ⁦@Paulina_VV⁩ https://t.co/q6iQsronZZ
