News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in.

Mexican official says U.S. plan for border wall 'stupid' and 'underhanded'

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Mexico's foreign secretary Monday levelled his country's sharpest criticism yet at a U.S. proposal for a fence along parts of its southern border, condemning it as "stupid" and "underhanded."

In a radio interview, Luis Ernesto Derbez said U.S. legislators who approved the bill are turning a blind eye to the contributions millions of migrants from Mexico and elsewhere make to the U.S. economy and culture. "It's a law that looks underhanded to everybody...stupid," Derbez said.
