Sheinbaum to US Ambassador: Mind Your Own Business – Soberanía 109
In the first live episode of Soberanía, hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth break down a week of dramatic escalation in U.S.-Mexico tensions and President Sheinbaum’s forceful response.
The episode opens with a firsthand report from the massive Morena rally at the Monumento a la Revolución, where Sheinbaum delivered her toughest speech yet on U.S. interference. After listing the government’s achievements over two years, she turned to the extradition request against Sinaloa Governor Rocha Moya and asked bluntly whether Washington is genuinely interested in fighting cartels or simply positioning itself to influence Mexico’s 2027 elections. “Mexico is nobody’s piñata,” she said, warning that if the U.S. can target one governor, it will come for others until the Justice Department becomes “the principal elector in Mexico.”
The hosts then examine new fronts in U.S. pressure: reports that two more governors — Alfonso Durazo of Sonora and Américo Villarreal of Tamaulipas — are under federal investigation and have had their visas withdrawn, and Marco Rubio’s testimony warning that Mexican cartels could use drones against U.S. interests — a new pretext for intervention. Meanwhile, new tariffs citing “forced labor” in Mexico ignore the actual forced labor happening in U.S. prisons and ICE detention centers.
Losers and Haters takes aim at two figures: Héctor Aguilar Camín, and Enrique Krauze, who embarrassed himself by celebrating a right-wing Spanish politician lecturing Mexico on sovereignty. The hosts note that the opposition’s reliance on foreign intervention only confirms how bankrupt their domestic project has become.
