Mexican President Slams Social Media Censorship Of President Trump
“I don’t like censorship”
As people are still reeling from the coordinated banning of President Trump across social media platforms, Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador condemned the decision of America’s Big Tech tyrants.
U.S. News and World Report reports:
Mexico’s president on Thursday blasted social media companies for blocking the accounts of President Donald Trump for his part in chaotic scenes in Washington on Wednesday, again appearing to cleave to his U.S. counterpart in a contentious dispute.
. . . . Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador was reluctant to comment on what occurred at the Capitol, reiterating a position that his government does not meddle in the affairs of other nations.
Twitter Inc, Facebook Inc and Snap Inc temporarily blocked Trump’s accounts as they scrambled to contain his baseless claims about the presidential election amid the riots.
That decision, said Lopez Obrador, was not acceptable.
“I don’t like censorship,” he told a news conference. “I don’t like anyone to be censored and for them to have their right taken away to send a message on Twitter or on Facebook.”

It’s a sad day when Mexico has to lecture the U.S. on basic human rights.
It’s just amazing to me that the only world leader with the balls to stand up for basic freedoms would be Mexico. Not to knock Mexico, but where the hell is the rest of Western Civilization?
maybe we should encourage Lopez Obrador to start domestic replacements for American social media, and then ban the likes of Twitter, and others?
Because of massive election fraud, our nation has been COMPLETELY hijacked by a traitorous massively corrupt president-elect, a lamebrain leftist whore as a vice-president elect, a complete psychopath as Speaker of the House, a criminal as head of the FBI, a lunatic about to become attorney general, a chief justice of the supreme court that has nude photos of him banging underaged Epstein girls circulating, lunatic school heads – you name it.
They now have COMPLETE power. Our only route to savior is through the street and through our pocketbooks.
It’s tough, but either we get off our asses, or become enslaved.
I think he understands that a lawless border to the US means the cartels will rise dramatically in power.
Probably also in fear that if things really go sideways in the US that there will be waves of returning Mexicans and waves of Americans seeking to escape the insanity.
In the end Mexico will pay for the wall BUT to keep people out of Mexico! LMAO. Oh man the irony if that was to happen……
True, but a lawless border also allows the Mexican invasion to continue, and he’s all for that like every Mexican President.
They’ll make good swamp enforcers, in exchange for lax border enforcement.
You think I’m exaggerating? They’ll be coming to a neighborhood near you – and will make Antifa and BLM goons look like Mitt Romney.
At least one world leader makes a comment. Where are Merkel, Boris, Macron, Runte, Trudeau et al? Well, then again, free speech is negotiable for them so not suprising. All I can do is cancel my twitter account and wish then to just FO and tell everyone I know to do the same thing.
“Where are Merkel, Boris, Macron, Runte, Trudeau…”
Come on – we’re way past that. They just do what they’re told.
We 75,000,000 are alone in this. But we’re a mighty army.
“I don’t like censorship”
I wholeheartedly agree, sir.
The Mexican president has respect for Trump. Trump didn’t roll over; he tried to make a deal beneficial for both sides.
The left-wing President of Mexico has more respect for the US Constitution than the Democrat party does. What does that tell you?
That democrats and leftists are not and have never been Americans.
