She’s right: municipal budgets are moral documents, not just administrative artifacts. They don’t have to be surrendered to radical communists—nor to libertarians, who would dismantle basic services.
🚨 Mamdani Transition Pick Praises “Sneaking” Radical Proposals Into Budgets Celina Su of CUNY is on Zohran Mamdani’s Committee on Community Organizing transition team. She’s a “budget justice” scholar who rejects the idea that budgets are neutral or merely technical, arguing they’re “moral documents” and a site of political struggle. In the clip, she highlights movement projects first developed in “solidarity economy” spaces and then “snuck” into participatory budgeting and other channels to secure state resources, even citing “radical proposal writing parties” aimed at “sneak[ing] in radical proposals.” She also says her work shifted toward “budget justice” during the 2020 George Floyd "protests and uprisings," when the term entered popular discourse for her.

More discrimination against White people in Oregon—characterize by progressives as, "It's not happening… but it's good when it happens."
Multnomah County’s DEI points system prioritized homeless housing by race and national origin. That ends today. Unlawful DEI scoring system gone. Applicants rescored on lawful criteria. Taxpayer dollars based on need — not identity.

Beyond the institutional incentives, how often is an immigration lawyer afflicted by one of these: 1. A white-savior complex: She’s aware of the technology and social order that her people once exported, but she’s haunted by a sense that she not fit for a similar path. She thus ironically play-acts the colonizer by instilling learned helplessness—but among her own people this time, while dismantling her own civilization. 2. Fetishization of disempowerment: She longs to be used, but only by someone who knows what “being used” is like—and, she tells herself, only on her own terms: once she’s a “prize” not only because of her race, but because of what she’s done for “the community.” 3. Capitulation to what @NoWhiteGuiltNWG calls “White-noir”: Seeking to insulate herself from the ever-present threat of antiwhite slurs, she feigns solidarity with those who advocate against the interests of her own people… while intuiting, at some level, that no sacrifice she makes will ever be enough to protect her from the mob’s fury, should it ever arrive at her door.
An immigration lawyer wants to know what the f— is wrong with deporting an illegal alien who committed fraud in his asylum claim. I’d like to discuss what’s the f— is wrong with the immigration bar. For decades immigration lawyers have enjoyed wave after wave of illegal alien clients — including unaccompanied alien children who are systematically exploited in the process. They don’t lobby for child protections. Only for more federal dollars to pay the “pro bono” lawyers assigned to represent them. They describe their immigration advocacy for foreign children to receive U.S. benefits as “life-saving,” although no country in Central America is documented for torturing or murdering children. But the migration journey at the hands of cartel smugglers is known to be extremely dangerous! These immigration attorneys ignore the dangerous, illegal smuggling aspect because smuggling is HOW THEY OBTAIN THEIR CLIENTS AND MAKE THEIR LIVELIHOOD. 🤦🏼‍♀️ The immigration bar IS the cartel. @DHSGenCounsel @ScottMechkowski @JohnE_Fabb @SenAshleyMoody

Labor rights were won by a coalition of people disgusted with abuses of labor. These included labor republicans (craftsmen, cooperatists, councilists, and guild socialists) and communists (levelers, grifters, and would-be autocrats). The former valued private property; the latter wanted it abolished—a stark difference! On one hand, without the latter’s zeal and fervor, the rights that the former secured could not have been won. On the other hand, where the latter side secured state socialism, the results were abysmal. The coalition was temporary… and necessary to secure the labor rights that some still enjoy today. The rights of freedom of speech, of freedom of association, and of national self-determination are similarly being defended by a coalition, today. This coalition agrees, ironically, with Hồ Chí Minh—at least in this conviction: Nationalism is a necessary step, before whatever comes next. The minds of Western peoples, especially Western women, have been colonized by globalists to balk at the robust defense of our cultural heritages, our lands, and our peoples. This will end. Where those who defend their community’s common-pool resources win, alongside global networks of high-agency co-creators, the results stand to be amazing! Where technocratic neofeudalists win, with their war-mongering lackeys, the results stand to be abysmal. What’s inescapable, at the moment, is the need for coalition.

Communism ⇒ Authoritarian state + Class envy + Dialectical materialism. Remove any one of these elements, and you don’t have communism. Fascism ⇒ Authoritarian state + Corporatism + Nationalistic idealism. Remove any one of these elements, and you don’t have fascism. Liberal “democracy” defeated fascism by conflating libertinism with liberty, then appealing to successive groups who could only prosper if granted special rights by the state. Granting one group special rights, unfortunately, entails curtailing others’ freedom of speech and freedom of association. Freedom will be reclaimed today only by those willing to pursue virtue together—to decouple liberty from libertinism and to reassert our common rights to speak freely and to associate with those we choose. Building things together, beginning with rapport, is freeing. Championing unregulated financial capital is not.

Communism is not on the rise in Britain. Therefore, fascism—an historical response to communism—isn’t on the rise, either. Communism ⇒ Authoritarian state + Class envy + Dialectical materialism. Remove any one of these elements, and you don’t have communism. Fascism ⇒ Authoritarian state + Corporatism + Nationalistic idealism. Remove any one of these elements, and you don’t have fascism. Liberal democracy defeated fascism by identifying successive groups who could only prosper if granted special rights by the state. Granting one group special rights entails curtailing others’ freedom of speech and freedom of association. Liberal democracy sewed the seeds of the authoritarian state you have in Britain today. The professor isn’t wrong: Once you start questioning one group’s special rights and expecting freedom of speech and freedom of association for everyone… you're rejecting liberal democracy, as the fascists did. That doesn't mean you’re promoting fascism. It just means that whatever political theory you get behind, it should be better articulated than the republicanism that fascism defeated.

EXC: A Washington think tank whose immigration program receives Soros funding has identified hundreds of American counties as destinations for migrants. 96.5% of selected counties are majority White . Residents would have no say. Its November 2025 immigration blueprint urges policymakers to “enable local governments and private entities to sponsor immigrants directly.” It also proposes state visa programs and “incentivizing new arrivals to stay in specific states and regions.” Two weeks later, Niskanen published its Migration Match Index, assessing American communities for their capacity to accommodate more immigration. The report describes places with “aging, stagnant, or insufficient native labor supply.” It weighs factors including job openings, rental vacancies, affordability, unemployment, and age. The authors explicitly discuss using updated data to plan resettlement following “an influx of asylum seekers at the border.” They also contemplate applications to a future refugee-admissions system. Niskanen’s own funding disclosure lists $300,000 from Open Society Foundation for immigration work, covering the period when both documents were published. Other donors include the Rockefeller Family Fund and the Pritzker Family Foundation. The organization already has a record of helping turn private sponsorship into policy. Its 2025 annual report says it “helped conceive and implement” Welcome Corps, the private refugee-sponsorship program established under Biden.

Oregon's affordable housing industrial complex is awash in billions in taxpayer money, federal tax credits, private investors...as well as serious questions surrounding lack of accountability and corruption. And now the person who overseas the lion's share of that system (Oregon Housing and Community Services - or OHCS), is facing a serious ethics review. OHCS executive director, Andrea Bell, failed to disclose her husband's employment with JH Brawner, a consulting firm involved in the multiple affordable housing projects that received 10's of millions of dollars from her agency. Bell only amended her financial disclosures once reporters began asking her questions. But there's an even bigger story here: OHSC has distributed more than $1.4 billion in state housing subsidies over five years. That doesn't include the enormous value of federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) allocated through the agency. Here's how LIHTC works: Developers receive allocations of federal tax credits, which are then sold to private investors in exchange for capital. Investors then receive federal tax benefits over ten years, while developers receive financing for projects. It's an incredibly complex system that brings together government agencies (such as OHCS), private developers (such as Community Development Partners - or CDP), banks and financial institutions, and large investment firms. And the public deserves to know exactly where the money goes. Nearly two years ago, we investigated Milepost 5, a Portland affordable housing complex that had descended into deplorable conditions (as affordable housing properties tend to do) despite millions in public subsidies and tax-credit financing. Our investigation revealed that the investment entity CDP, a private California company that develops many affordable housing projects in the Portland-metro area, is a subsidiary of Aegon Group, an international hedge fund worth north of $300 billion. Although OHCS awarded CDP $3.3 million for upgrades and repairs at Milepost 5, serious maintenance problems persisted, along with drug dealing, squatters, and repeated complaints from residents and neighbors. At one point, there was even a raid by Homeland Security Investigations at the property, in which they arrested multiple drug dealers who had taken up residence in the building. CDP claimed that seismic upgrades consumed most of the $3.3 million, despite an earlier estimate of approximately $350,000 for the seismic work. According to CDP, this left insufficient funding to address many of the property's other problems. After contacting multiple people within CDP, OHCS, and local government, we were unable to obtain a satisfactory accounting of exactly how the $3.3 million was spent. Everyone involved just wanted the questions about the funds to go away. In fact, a local whistleblower who lives near Milepost 5 was threatened with arrest after U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley’s office allegedly identified him as a man who had been behaving threateningly outside the senator’s office. There was just one problem: the whistleblower was out of town on a fishing trip at the time, and the man in question bore no resemblance to him. Nevertheless, the accusation reportedly led to an attempt to have the whistleblower arrested. Even after the mistaken identity was established, neither Merkley nor his office offered the whistleblower an apology. Senator Merkley needs to answer to this egregious behavior. While OHCS did publicly admonish CDP for its failures at Milepost 5 at a meeting, two weeks later, the agency approved $43.6 million to CDP for the Julia West affordable housing project. In a news story by ProPublica (see below) the publication exposed how Oregon law shields detailed financial information about subsidized housing developments from public scrutiny. There are billions in state subsidies. Federal tax credits benefitting private investors. Complex ownership structures. Limited public access to financial records. And now an ethics review involving the director of the agency responsible for overseeing much of it. Both the Bell controversy and Milepost 5 raise fundamental questions about oversight, transparency, and whose interests Oregon's affordable housing system is actually serving. Because it doesn't seem to serve the people who are unfortunate enough to have to live in places like Milepost 5 or any of the other dozens of affordable housing projects in this city that are constantly falling into disrepair. It seems to mostly serve out of state corporations and huge international hedge funds. The state (i.e. Gov. Kotek) and local government tell us that affordable housing should be about providing safe, stable homes for the people who really need them - not for moving enormous sums of public money through an increasingly complicated financial industrial complex, one that appears to be rife with corruption. Below are the articles from ProPublica and our article about Milepost 5.

Czesław Miłosz – How Brilliant People Surrender to a Lie. The most precise book ever written about how intelligent people surrender to a lie was written by a man who had served one himself – and then stopped. Czesław Miłosz. Poet. Nobel Prize, 1980. After the war he served communist Poland as a diplomat in Washington and Paris. In 1951 he defected. Two years later he published The Captive Mind. 1. His question was not why ordinary people submitted. Fear explains that. His question was why the brilliant ones did – the writers, the professors, the poets. Often before anyone forced them. Often with enthusiasm. 2. The first answer was a pill. Miłosz took the image from a Polish novel written before the war. An army from the East is about to conquer Europe, and people start taking a little pill. It makes them stop resisting. The fear goes away because the judgment goes away: they no longer see the conquerors as conquerors, and when the army arrives, they welcome it. Miłosz watched his friends take the same pill – the communist doctrine. It explained everything, so they no longer had to look. It promised that history was on its side, so surrender felt like wisdom. It filled the emptiness modern man felt when the old faith died – with a lie. That is what the pill does: it lets you live inside the lie without feeling it. 3. The second answer was the double life. Miłosz called it Ketman, after an old Persian practice: keep your true beliefs hidden, show only obedience. Outside, you say what is required. Inside, you think what you like. Done long enough, it stops feeling like lying. It becomes a way of life – even a private pride: I play their game, but I know better. The professional who serves the regime so he can keep working. The patriot who collaborates "to save what can be saved." The skeptic who believes nothing and recites everything. Everybody knew. Everybody performed. That is how a lie survives with almost no believers. 4. He drew four portraits of writer friends – the moralist, the disappointed lover, the slave of history, the troubadour – and showed each of them surrendering for a different reason. The lesson is uncomfortable: there is no single type of collaborator. The system has a door for every temperament. 5. The West didn’t want to hear it. Miłosz saw that people who had never lived through war, occupation and terror could not imagine how quickly their own convictions might collapse. In Paris, the intellectuals treated him as the problem, not the regime. Pablo Neruda attacked him as a deserter. 6. Then came 1980. The Nobel Prize. And the same year, in Gdańsk, the workers of Solidarity carved his verses into the monument to their fallen comrades. The nation he had left put his words in stone. 7. The pill is still on sale. Only now it is swallowed for status rather than out of fear – and nobody needs a secret police, at least officially. Ketman is everywhere: the employee nodding through the diversity training, the academic signing the letter he doesn’t believe, the journalist who knows and doesn’t write. Read Miłosz today and you will recognize your office. He showed that a mind is not captured by force. It is captured by fear, ambition and the hunger to belong. And it is freed the same way it was captured: one person at a time – the moment he stops pretending.
James Burnham – The Trotskyist Who Saw How It Would End. He was a Trotskyist first. In the 1930s he was one of the leading Marxist intellectuals in America – building the movement, debating Trotsky himself by letter, believing in the revolution. But he was also an American. A practical mind, trained to look at what actually happens rather than what the theory promises. So he understood what it was really about – and explained to us how it would work out. 1. In 1940 he broke with Trotsky over one question: what was the Soviet Union? Trotsky said a workers’ state, temporarily deformed. Burnham looked at it and saw something else: a new ruling class. The workers owned nothing. The capitalists were gone. Someone else was in charge – the people who ran the machine. Trotsky spent much of his last year writing against him. Burnham was right. 2. In 1941 he generalized it in The Managerial Revolution. The future would belong neither to the capitalists nor to the workers, but to the managers – the administrators, technicians and bureaucrats who control things without owning them. Capitalism would fall, he wrote – but not to the working class. To the managers. The capitalist, who risks his own fortune, would be replaced by the manager, who risks nothing, owns nothing and runs everything. That is the whole difference. The capitalist pays for his own mistakes. The manager’s mistakes are always paid by someone else – the shareholder, the taxpayer, the citizen. Burnham saw the same class rising in Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany and New Deal America. Different flags, the same new masters. And he said what it meant: the end of capitalism and of freedom – even if the façade stayed standing. 3. Orwell read it, argued with it – and borrowed from it. The three superstates of 1984 come from Burnham. So does its ruling class, which owns everything collectively and nothing personally. 4. In 1943 came The Machiavellians. Burnham studied the realists – Machiavelli and his modern heirs, like Pareto – and drew the lesson idealists never want to hear: every society is run by an elite. The only question is whether there is more than one. Freedom does not come from the absence of elites. It comes from their competition – rival powers that check each other, a free press, an opposition that can actually win. A single elite with no rival is tyranny, whatever it calls itself. 5. Now look at what the long march actually produced. Not the rule of the workers. The rule of the managers – the administrators of the ministries, the regulators in Brussels, the HR departments, the editorial boards. The façade of capitalism still stands – but who actually rules? Corporate boards spending other people’s money on other people’s ideologies. Officials in Brussels. Directors of foundations and NGOs. No voter elected them. The revolution succeeded. Only the managers won it. Gramsci designed the march. Burnham told us who would be waiting at the end of it. A class that owns nothing, answers to no voter, pays for none of its mistakes, and runs almost everything. 6. In 1964 he wrote Suicide of the West. Its verdict: liberalism – the modern progressive kind, not the classical one – is "the ideology of Western suicide." It lets a civilization accept its own retreat and feel good about it. Every loss becomes a sign of progress. Sixty years later, it reads like a description of Brussels. 7. The ex-Trotskyist ended up a founding editor of National Review, and in 1983 Ronald Reagan gave him the Presidential Medal of Freedom. From Trotsky’s comrade to Reagan’s medal. He knew the left from the inside, and he had the American instinct to ask the only question that matters: not what the theory promises, but who ends up in charge. In 1941 his answer was the managers. It still is – unless a rival elite rises. For the first time in decades, one has: builders, not administrators. Burnham would have recognized the moment. Not a revolution – a rotation.

Medical Tuesday. The irony is thick. American college graduates with strong grades, high MCAT scores, and hundreds of thousands in debt are increasingly shut out of medical school or residency. At the same time, states are opening their doors to visa holders and foreign-trained physicians from systems where a 33% or even lower score can be a passing grade in medical school, and where FMGE (India’s foreign medical graduate exam) pass rates often hover around 25-27%. Did you know that? Qualified Americans get told “not enough residency slots.” Foreign-trained doctors get provisional and fast-track licenses in 18+ states that bypass or shorten full U.S. residency requirements. This is not filling a genuine shortage with the “best and brightest" when our best and brightest is forced to deliver DoorDash and denied entrance into medical school. It is replacing American talent with lower-barrier, often less rigorously trained labor that is more compliant and cheaper for the system. The system- purposely made as expensive, lengthy and prohibitive as possible. Future American doctors cannot get the training they paid for and sacrificed for, while the pipeline for questionable foreign credentials keeps widening.

“It’s clear now that the universities cannot be trusted. The documentation from the universities themselves indicates beyond any reasonable doubt that they have continued engaging in racial discrimination. In several cases, they’ve been caught planning to do so, admitting to were doing so, hinting at it, and so on. In each case, it’s clear: making racial discrimination illegal was insufficient. We must go further. Universities must be compelled to affirmatively justify their admissions decisions. They need to publicly provide the data and the model used to select students, and they need to tell us how it works—explicitly—and then show us—verifiably—that they used only the information provided on students’ applications, without proxying race. If they find that to be a too great a burden, then we only have one course of action: defund them. Ban their researchers from grants, ban their students from public loans, take away their tax benefits and accreditations and confiscate their endowments until they become compliant or voluntarily cut themselves off from the public teat. The universities will only learn if it hurts.”
I've seen enough: Three years after SFFA v. Harvard ruled racially discriminatory admissions were illegal, universities are still discriminating. The only solution is to crush them. Link: cremieux.xyz/p/still-discrim…

A New York jury just awarded $2 MILLION to a young woman who underwent a double mastectomy at 16 and later detransitioned. The jury found her psychologist and surgeon liable for malpractice. Her case alleged that serious mental-health issues, including depression, body dysmorphia, anorexia and autism-spectrum traits, were not adequately addressed before an irreversible procedure was performed on a minor. Now watch what happens when someone like her speaks publicly. For years we were told regret was exceedingly rare. We were told these procedures were necessary care. We were told questioning the process itself was dangerous. But when a detransitioner stands up and says, “This happened to me,” suddenly she becomes the problem. That is the epistemic tell. When evidence supports the narrative, it is celebrated. When evidence contradicts the narrative, the person carrying the evidence gets attacked. A jury heard the testimony. A jury examined the evidence. A jury found malpractice. And a jury put the damages at $2 million. You don’t protect vulnerable young people by demanding silence from the ones who came back and said, “I wish someone had slowed this down.” You protect them by listening. #AStoneGroove #SilentMajoritySpeaks

⚡️The real event is the collapse of the white-collar apprenticeship economy. The junior analyst, associate, consultant, paralegal, accountant, recruiter, researcher, coder, finance professional, and coordinator were all expensive because competent cognition was scarce. AI is erasing that scarcity. Within five years, a huge share of that work will simply stop being purchased from humans. The exact corporate mechanism will look deceptively boring: smaller incoming classes, vacancies left open, fewer backfills, one senior person running what used to require five juniors. So the labor statistics will lag the reality. The more important break comes afterward. Those junior jobs were how people became senior people. A first-year lawyer reviewed documents and drafted language until pattern recognition formed. A banking analyst built models and decks until transactions became intuitive. A finance analyst reconciled numbers until the business became legible. A consultant researched industries until judgment developed. AI consumes the training substrate. That means the career ladder loses its bottom rungs. Then firms start hiring fewer people at the bottom while expecting the survivors to operate much closer to senior level immediately. The funnel gets brutally narrow. That creates a strange second-order shortage later: AI can replace junior production faster than institutions can replace human judgment formed through years of apprenticeship. So the professional class bifurcates. At one end: a small number of humans directing enormous machine capacity, owning decisions, relationships, capital, trust, and accountability. At the other: millions of educated people discovering that being smart, diligent, credentialed, and competent no longer guarantees economic scarcity. That is the real earthquake. And it reaches universities next. A $150,000 degree made sense when it purchased entry into a protected cognitive labor market. Once the entry jobs disappear, the degree loses part of the asset it was selling. Then wages. Then urban professional economies. Then commercial real estate. Then tax bases. Then family formation. Then politics. The shock propagates far beyond employment. The deepest shift is simpler: For most of modern history, human cognition was capital. A company hired people because useful thinking could only be obtained by hiring minds. Now useful thinking can increasingly be rented by the token. That changes the economic status of intelligence itself. Once intelligence becomes infrastructure, the premium moves toward what remains scarce after intelligence becomes abundant: judgment ownership trust capital allocation relationships taste responsibility access the ability to choose the right objective The professional middle class was built on the scarcity of competent cognition. AI is removing the scarcity beneath the class. That is what is actually happening.
🚨LATEST: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says AI could wipe out HALF of entry-level white-collar jobs within 1–5 years “50% of all entry-level lawyers, consultants, and finance professionals will be completely wiped out within the next 1–5 years,” Amodei says. He argues AI will rapidly automate much of the work currently performed by junior professionals, fundamentally reshaping how these industries hire and operate.

Illegal Monday Do illegal aliens deserve civil rights when their presence denies Americans the pursuit of happiness? A citizen's civil rights are defined. They are not a subjective state moved by the desires of a foreigner or the greed of an employer. The very presence of the illegal alien was a coordinated movement to ignore our laws with a willful desire to take opportunities meant for the citizens of this country. Housing, wages, school seats, emergency rooms, and safe streets are how the pursuit of happiness shows up in real life. When millions who were never admitted occupy those goods, an American who followed the rules loses them. This did not happen because someone got lost. They did not just wander into the Rio Grande by chance. Routes are sold. Papers are faked. Employers keep the bid and arranged where the labor would go and even had their free flights arranged. Politicians keep the headcount for the census. The person who stays is not a guest who lost a form, they were never given ITIN numbers, a refilling credit card, and a mobile phone. Now they are occupying a place they were sent to undermine US labor, meat plants, agriculture, and menial jobs that pay more in tax payer benefits than wages. We all saw it. American civil rights exist to protect Americans. Activists talk as if everyone from every country, regardless of nationality, deserves more from America's system than they would receive in their home countries, and more than they would ever extend to an American who showed up the same way in theirs. That is not a rights argument. That is a claim on a country they did not build. Courts have said that people on U.S. soil get certain process before the government locks them up. That is not a right to remain, a right to work, a right to benefits, or a right to crowd out the people the Constitution was written to protect. In 1996, under President Clinton, Congress passed the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act. It created expedited removal. An immigration officer can order out people who lack valid documents or used fraud, without a full immigration-court case, and the statute lets DHS apply that to people who were never admitted and cannot show two years of continuous presence. Credible-fear claims can slow a plane. The design was still speed. They were not vetted coming in. The law already contemplated putting them on a plane instead of parking them in a docket for a decade. The civil-rights language gets flipped on purpose. Americans are told that enforcing the border is the violation. The worker who lost the job, the parent who cannot get a classroom that speaks English, the patient who waits while uncompensated care is written off, those people are treated as if they have no claim. Rights that protect citizens cannot be the shield for the act that harms them. Nobody is arguing for street justice. Return them alive. Return them under the statute Congress already wrote. Restoration of American rights is not cruelty. It is the point of having a country. Bookmark this. Share or quote it. Comment if you have watched your rights treated as optional so an illegal stay could be treated as sacred. Follow for more Illegal Monday.

Courtesy of @ProfBlacktruth… this is an excellent analysis of NBC’s treatment of the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case. The commentator labels legacy media “White media,” ignoring its decades of antiwhite bias and its allegiance to international capital far more than any particular race, and he trots out the canard of disproportionate police violence against blacks—but these are in his asides. His overall framing and prescription of what needs to happen to NBC is, I think, spot-on: youtube.com/watch?v=zIJA_niH…

Dr. Meryl Nass just secured a massive legal victory for Covid dissidents. She pierced the immunity of the medical board that suspended her license over Covid “disinformation.” A judge ruled she can now sue the board members personally. “Their broad immunity that they thought would protect them has been pierced.” “The judge said, ‘You can go after them for damages, even potentially including punitive damages.’” This sets a groundbreaking precedent. “There were a whole lot of doctors out there that had similar attacks.” “Somebody had to do it.” @nass_meryl @Polyface_Farms

215 years ago, Mexicans fought an empire that demanded our land and our labor. And we won. I'll carry that fight with me to Congress as New York's first Mexican American representative. And I'm strengthened not just by Mexico's history but its present.
