A Texas trooper has warned Americans to rethink traveling to Mexico as three women vanish after crossing the border to sell clothes at a flee market, joining the more than 500 US citizens that are missing in the country. Lieutenant Chris Olivarez, of the Texas Department of Public Safety, has issued a stark warning for American travelers as many gear up for Spring Break and plan trips to the popular travel destination. 'Our department is urging anyone traveling to Mexico, especially spring breakers, to avoid those areas, because right now it is too dangerous with the increase in violence and kidnappings in Mexico,'

And of course that piece of news never hits the mainstream media /s/ About 7 years ago we lived in AZ and had considered visiting Mexico but there was some incident and we decided not to. Now I would go there for any reason.

For those who like to travel to "thrill recreation" locations, North Korea,Yemen or Iran would be the ultimate choice, but if your budget doesn't allow travel to the other continent, Mexico is the convenient choice.

There are many, many bad places to go where you can find mortal danger. Mexico, Central America, parts of the Middle East, etc. There are still places in the US that are beautiful and safe if you like to travel. For how long that lasts, it will be up to American People to get rid of the Marxists running our current government. There are already major cities here that are mostly no-go for tourists. NYC, Chicago, Portland, SF, LA, Seattle Minneapolis, Atlanta. Any tourist thinking about going to Mexico is trying for a Darwin Award.

Sundance over at The Conservative Treehouse has an interesting take on this. The US is trying to ramp up the psy-ops against Mexico, in order to force it to change its energy policy to be more in line with Build Back Better. IOW, no oil or gas.

Funny - - ain't it - - how black "activists" never uttered a peep about two blacks being muredered - - and two others being kidnapped in Mexico. No media coverage - - no demonstrations - - no riots. And now - - three brown-skinned women have disappeared. Do you think the "women's" groups and the brown-skinned groups are going to say anything? Crickets, anyone?

The Denzel Washington movie "Man on Fire" was not strictly fiction...there are a LOT of kidnappings in Mexico, though until recently the RULE was...leave the american tourists alone. The kidnapper and drug Cartels had hard and fast policies about staying out of and away from the tourist hotspots and beach enclaves. Not anymore. In the bordertowns there were "entertainment/Shopping districts" where your biggest risk was pickpockets, and getting caught with drugs, too drunk, by the cops. Known as "Boystown" by the Texas locals, it was a "coming of Age" trip for highschool seniors or College kids. Tijuana got real bad....now all of the other border towns are as well. Even Cancun, Puerta Vallarta and Cozemel are no longer safe.

Re #16.... "flea market" or drug market? I have no idea, but a lot of folks seeking drugs go into "bad neighborhoods" and get bad outcomes. I'll bet that at least some of the Americans going into Mexico these days are seeking drugs. I have no idea if these women were doing that, or were just entirely brainless.

On Thursday night, Politico’s Daniel Lippman reported that the Chinese-owned social media platform TikTok “hired top Biden-connected consulting firm SKDK” founded by current White House senior adviser Anita Dunn within “the last few months” to likely help it escape scrutiny and a possible ban from the federal government amid legitimate concerns its stored data can be used by the Chinese Communist Party. Given the liberal media’s penchant for littering their newscasts with puff pieces on TikTok bringing people together and viral trends, the major broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC ignored this story on their flagship morning and evening newscasts.

I used to work for a major defense contractor. We referred to our company as the best machine shop in the world. We could manufacture virtually any part, to even the most exacting tolerances. The company had even received numerous “Excellence” awards from the Navy for ingenuity, customer service, and workmanship. And then in the 1990s, the company decided to try something different. Our president had a brainstorm -- which is always scary coming from someone with a Harvard MBA and little manufacturing experience. He decided that we didn’t need quality control inspectors -- those folks that check final parts to ensure compliance with the engineering specifications.

The town is taking shape on the outskirts of Austin, where Musk is also building factories for SpaceX and Boring, after pulling out of California.

There are small houses where staff from the companies will be able to live for $800-a-month - well below the soaring local market rates.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” was named best picture at the 95th Academy Awards on Sunday, capping off an improbable awards season run by winning the movie business’s highest honor. The film, a gonzo adventure about a Chinese-American laundromat owner grappling with an IRS audit and inter-dimensional attackers, earned seven statues, including original screenplay and directing honors for its creators Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert (collectively known as the Daniels). The victory is a triumph for A24, the indie studio that pushed the zany film to an impressive $100 million at the box office, a stunning achievement at a time when the market for arthouse movies has shriveled.

NYSE halted trading of Charles Schwab, whose shares fell by more than 20%, and even a few Etsy sellers have been impacted by the fallout of Silicon Valley Bank’s (SVB) collapse. Schwab’s fall was the firm’s “most ever on an intraday-basis,” even as company execs assured investors in a press release that “Schwab’s long-standing reputation as a safe port in a storm remains intact.” Overall, trading of shares in over 30 banks was halted on Wall Street Monday morning, as the entire sector suddenly looks like a risk
