Why not tax the remittances to Mexico 100%?

I think Sheinbaum fears that very thing.

She has her panties in a bunch about the US taxing them at 5% while her government taxes them at up to 16%. That's a nice little bit of revenue for Mexico on over 150 billion a year. I agree with Max. 100% is a nice bit of revenue for the US.

Fairly obvious from the videos that the ship lost steerage, probably due to a loss of power, and the current carried it backwards into the bridge.

The ship may have crashed because the captain couldn't see past the enormous Mexican flag waving up front. Rioters waving Mexican flags may crash too.

Typo - I assume 2027 got the opening date.

Supposedly the ship was just too tall for the bridge. The main mast should have been lowered. 150 or 160 ft vs 135 ft.
