On the one hand, cartels are definitely a threat to the national security of both Mexico and the USA.

On the other hand, are Trump planning to invade Mexico?
A quick skim through other news on that website basically makes me think "tankies 2.0", so I highly doubt it.  Let's see, Chinese concentration camps are made up by US interests, Hong Kong protestors are really violent US-backed stooges based on xenophobia and nativist self-interest, and so forth, so I'd put it as a very firm [citation needed].

The most I had previously heard about the Mexico thing was that Trump had offered via Twitter to send the us military to deal with the Mexican Cartels. Surprised they were considering any steps near the topic tbh.

I'm uh... just gonna leave this here. Because seriously, no ammount of snark can do this idiocy justice.

Bolsonaro blames Leonardo DiCaprio for paying for NGOs to burn the Amazon.

It should go without saying that NGOs are not burning the Amazon, cattle and soy farmers are.

The way you wrote it I picture a bunch of cows with torches in hand starting fires along with some farmers.

One Brazilian created a webpage to attribute blame for the South American country’s various ills to a cast of Hollywood stars.

In it Tom Hanks was blamed for Brazil’s high taxes, Penélope Cruz for unemployment, Daniel Radcliffe for impunity, Johnny Depp for deforestation and Kate Winslet for its education crisis.

Harrison Ford found himself charged with responsibility for Brazil’s Kafkaesque bureaucracy while the government debt was the fault of Adam Sandler.

Bolsonaro's not wrong. I even have photographic evidence of Leo burning down the amazon.

Is that a baby bottle? lol, and dunno what's with the character looking down his pants, obviously looking at a particular male member, but I don't know the context of the cartoon character.

Well, to be honest, the debt thing does sound like something Adam Sandler would do.

This is a JPEG. All montagemanship is if the highest quality. On the item theres an image of Leo, The Sexual Apparatus and Others, a cock baby bottle, and trees.Leo is using  the cock baby bottle to set fire to the trees. The trees are burning.


That is the cover of a a french book called 'The sexual apparatus and others'[Don't know if there was an English print]. Its a book that explains sexuality meant for sixth years (about 13 yo). It was translated to Portuguese back in ~2006 but didn't get much attention then.

Back during the election Bolsonaro criticized the 'School with no homophobia' program, by the ministry of education and human rights, meant to stop homophobia in schools. He called it "kit gay" and said it was supposed to teach children to be homosexuals. He then said that this book was part of the kit gay, along with a 'cock baby bottle', supposedly to help students suck cock.

He was full of shit. Still is, but was back then too.
