Live from DC, Laura Carlsen reports from the inauguration of Donald Trump and explains what his "America First" rhetoric means for US-Mexico relations - from a dangerous misunderstanding of trade between the two nations, to the risk of drug war and immigration policies boosting cartel violence along and across the border.
Laura just posted the article Bringing Mexico to Its Knees Will Not “Make America Great Again” at Counterpunch.
Laura Carlsen is the director of the Americas program at the Center for International Policy.
