The Epoch Times: China, Russia Grow Their Spy Networks in Mexico to Potentially Target the US
As tensions between the US and China persist and the war in Ukraine continues, officials warn that both China and Russia are increasing their number of intelligence agents in Mexico.

One concern is the partnership between Chinese brokers and Mexican drug cartels to traffic fentanyl into the US, with Chinese actors providing a horse sedative called xylazine to the cartels to mix with fentanyl, resulting in a deadlier combination. This escalation of foreign intelligence activity in Mexico raises concerns about national security and the potential for Chinese and Russian influence in the Western Hemisphere.

The New American: Progressives and Populists vs. the Credit Card Market - The New American
Left and right politicians are pushing for intervention in the credit-card processing market to reduce interchange fees.

The push for intervention is primarily driven by big-box stores like Walmart and Target, who stand to gain billions in additional revenue. Central planning in the market process leads to harmful unintended consequences.
