That’s what you hear.
Massive JUSTIFICATION:
Through the flood of illegal migration at the US southern border. Mexico is taking back what belongs to them. The US stole it in the Mexican-American War.
Yeah, well, let’s back up a little. And put the Prime Grade A propaganda aside.
A thing called HISTORY still exists, if we want to look at it.
ONE: In the 16th century, Spain conquered Mexico. Plus the rest of the Aztec Empire. Thus establishing “New Spain.”
TWO: Spain didn’t stop there. They moved north, and took what would later become California, New Mexico, Arizona, and Texas. They grabbed it. MEXICO didn’t grab it. Spain, which ruled Mexico, did. They also called these northern conquests New Spain.
THREE: Mexico revolted against Spain, fought a war of independence in 1821, and won.
FOUR: Mexico then claimed, for its own, those American territories which SPAIN had grabbed.
FIVE: Mexico and America fought a war (1846-1848). The US wanted those territories which SPAIN had conquered (e.g., California). The US won the war. And grabbed those territories—California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and pieces of Colorado and Wyoming.
SIX: Under terms of a Treaty with Mexico in 1848, the US paid Mexico $15 million.
SEVEN: Many people still insist the US stole all that land from Mexico. If the US stole it from anybody, it was SPAIN, which stole those lands in the first place.
Both Spain and America stole land from Indians living in the American Southwest.
EIGHT: Interestingly, some of the leading lights who claim the US stole the land from Mexico are Mexicans of SPANISH descent. Their ancestors conquered Mexico. Their SPANISH ancestors grabbed all that northern land.
NINE: Did you watch footage of the massive protests in Mexico City yesterday? The protests of Mexicans against Spain? Just kidding. I don’t hear a whisper of anger coming from Mexico against Spain.
TEN: The last 20, that’s TWENTY, Presidents of Mexico, going all the way back to 1920, are of Spanish descent, wholly, or of mixed heritage including Spanish. Most of the Presidents are wholly of Spanish descent. I didn’t go back further than 1920. For some reason, Mexicans today appear to be clueless about this Spanish Conquistador heritage of their top rulers.
Case closed.
