Let's start off with dummy. Of course, just about the only thing which made me feel a little better in the last two weeks were the 250,000 Brits who turned out to protest against Trump which prompted me to look again at old pics and videos of Sennen Cove and wonder WTF am I doing here?

The really big news which the US MSM is missing is AMLO, who I will return to. Executions and violence continue in our neck of the woods despite the recent election - we are over 100 executions this month in TIJ alone, another kidnapping in Rosarito and another Ministerial Agent murdered in Ensenada... I'll be back with those stats. Plus updates on the separated families.

A blast from the past !! From 2003:
