Mexico's president said on Friday he would respond with "great prudence" to threats by his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Mexican goods entering the United States, and called on Mexicans to unite to face the challenge.

“It was US security who said ‘we can’t have our President riding through a foreign capital in a vehicle made out of leather and wood and built in the 19th century’.”

It’s pathetic to watch the reviews of Mueller as performance art.

Self-Censoring By The New York Times
On Sunday, May 19, New York Times finance editor David Enrich got a request from a producer at MSNBC to appear on Rachel Maddow’s show the following night...Enrich said yes, but after mentioning the planned appearance to the Times’s communications department, he was told he would have to retroactively decline.
Barr makes this clear today: he didn’t simply misinterpret Mueller, he overruled him- “WE DIDN’T AGREE WITH THE LEGAL ANALYSIS..IT DID NOT REFLECT THE VIEWS OF THE DEPARTMENT. IT WAS THE VIEWS OF PARTICULAR LAWYER OR LAWYERS, AND SO WE APPLIED WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS THE RIGHT LAW.” - Jim Sciutto, CNN
