we have come to investigate how mexican drug cartels exploit weak u.s. gun laws to arm themselves with american weapons. our journey begins in a hotel in the northern mexican state of tamaulipas. we have a range to meet a group of people whose family members have gone missing it's not known whether they're living or dead the presence of drug cartels on the streets makes it too dangerous to meet them in an outside location along with me is that in the that are . committed is that that is a thirty day you're not. minimal money and. in. see monitors arms does that. mean yes it is. but the odds of finding a family member a life alone. since two thousand and four well over one hundred fifty thousand people have been killed in mexico's so-called war on drugs. here in town my only purpose the gulf cartel and the last letters cartel are in a violent battle over the control of lucrative drug routes. civilians are often forced to take sides or end up in the crossfire most. of them with locals. is the most effective than i was visiting here to see me he carries tam

ileana so so i was born in the united states the daughter of mexican immigrants. my mom started cleaning houses she was a maid you know so like they've sacrificed so much. for my sister and i to have a better life so for me i don't take it lightly to be a filmmaker. any us films portray people at the edges of american society immigrants without legal documents and without hope. our story and what i said there they make we're through the whole. system was fairly it's bush the way it is so many are better or racists they they still wear poor authentic scandia scare me though and it's very very. early. in the us. on the stand. i'm supporting him. i mean. the filmmaker chronicled the pregnancies of two women one living in the united states illegally the other with an undocumented mexican husband it was the period just off to donald trump's electoral college victory. after the election high. draft that there were vigil empty crips going toward a door in our neighborhood and my son was born and i was holding him in my arms and i was hiding my husband and the floorboards

when i think of my son he is part cuban, mexican and american. that's where were going, the way we look here is how the knighted states will look in the future. this is the future. the next 20 minutes i want to talk to you about how i see the future some of the obstacles that i am seeing. these are not normal times. in ten or 15 years from now will be talking about the trump era and we will know that was not normal. it is not normal to have a president who makes racist, sexist comments. that is not normal. today i was doing an interview with the bbc and we had a great conversation. and then at some point there asking me about trump's remarks and i told them how would you feel if your prime minister would say that a group in great britain is composed by drug traffickers, and rapists what would be the reaction. they cannot even imagine that. these are the times we are living now. for me i've been living here for 35 years, my son and daughter were born here this country gave me the opportunities may country of origin cannot give me. i was a reporter

then you hate all mexicans who chose to come here because all mexicans are the same. is racist a call obama a black chimpanzee, but democrats call trump because -- and orange orangutan, because he is norwegian. host: we need your point richard. it was president trump who called mexicans rapists and murderers. that was not me. i think it is fair to say trump has a rather dim view of the people of mexico. in virginia, go ahead. caller: you made an observation about the current volatility within the administration, specifically about the lack of ambassadors. i would like to push you on that point, let's take from 2012 the 2016, i assume there were sitting ambassadors, it did not prevent russian interference or the volatility in the middle east. yucca explain that point -- point? guest: it's a fair point. having ambassadors and other senior-level diplomats does not guarantee success by any means. there are a number of areas that have not been successful from an american viewpoint. that said, having diplomats on the ground and other senior state department officials does m

i do believe that in the minds of many mexicans, all the mexicans that are living here, they have bothries inside them. >> one of the things that you've heard, and i've heard too, is people are just so angry. it doesn't matter which side you're on. they're just angry, and they can't get past that. so how do we help people calm down? >> yeah, i will say that we have to look forward. i will say that we have to understand, be very measured, be very mature, and understand that these issues have nothing to do with the american people. these issues have nothing to do with the american goods. these issues have nothing to do with the american companies. quite the opposite. this is a moment where we have to be closer. this is a moment, an opportunity to show that together, we are better, that together we are more competitive, that together we have better creativity. so let's not be angry. let's be measured, let's be mature, and let's look at the positive side of all this. our thanks to all of our international friends, the consuls general of mexico, israel, and russia for taking their time to s

a mexican one.ng sick in mexico there was a massacre, hundreds of students were killed by the army, by the mexican army. there was one journalist with the tape recorder, there were these huge boxes back in. went and recorded all the testimony from the survivors of that massacre. thanks to her we know what happened in those days. so she's one of my idols. and an italian journalist who was fearless against all kinds of authoritarian regimes. at the end of her career she became too radical for me, but those two journalists have been my icons. and then i'm not saying it just like that, but again i i dedice the book to the dreamers, because what i did with donald trump, they taught me how to do it. if the dreamer would've been in that situation he or she would've done exactly the same thing or even better. okay? >> first, i just want to speak for everybody here and say thanks so much for coming out and giving the talk. i think we all really appreciate it.

the mexican war is a example. winfield scott went to mexico purposely cut himself off from communication with washington. he and president polk can stand each other. erso he wants nothing to do. you want not going to take his orders from washington. he cuts off all communication, marches into mexico and really could care less what anyone washington. a little hard to get away with that now. but that as a little dimension to the story don't get from history books. >> from the american revolution to the korean war, the role of washington d.c.. >> well, first of all, was named after?i mean, george washington -- every schoolchild knows it george washington is the father of the country. it sounds good but what does it really mean? >> i know what it really means and i have more respect is george washington than any character i'm dealt with in haiti, all of the clichcs apply. there's a reason he is on the dollar bill. i've vetrimmed disrespect for this man and of course washington's series but beyond that, because you tho

it's racist to call all mexican the same type of people but democrats say if you hate the mexican has are sent here with guns and drugs then you hate all mexicans that chose to come here because all mexicans are the same. it's racist to call obama a black chimpanzee but the democrats call an orange orangutan because he's norwegian. it's sexual harassment to harass a woman for the size of her breasts but it's democrats to harass trump on the size of his hands. >> i think we've got your point, richard. >> well, it was president trump in his campaign announcement speech that called mexicans rapists and murderers. that wasn't me. i think one can reasonably infer from what he said that he has a rather dim view of the people of mexico. i think that's a reasonable conclusion to draw. >> phil, independent, go ahead. >> caller: thanks for taking my call. you made an observation about the current volatility within the administration specifically about the lack of ambassadors sitting with the unveiling of the middle east policy. i'd like to push you on that point. let's take from 2012 to 2016, i

generals and the mexican war and president polk? >> zachary taylor first bought the beginning of the war is south texas the whole war maybe look at the excuse is whether the border of texas with mexico would be the rio grande with river as we know that today but the mexico wanted that 100 miles but ten years earlier they had defeated the texas revolution they wanted that 100 miles that was the spark that started the mexican war.at so the militia then got together so then theyy take command a fight three significantt battles and it could go either way. young american men are dying and so winfield scott in washington goes down to the golf and takes command from taylor so he manages things but then the war moves away from taylor. he is a legitimate american hero and then becomes president of the united states and does get his due but i don't know if i would call them enemies. scott had every right to do whatot he did and leave taylor go down south go to veracruz and eventually goes to mexico city. but now paul is a whole different stor

different on the mexican side, of course. >> host: did miguel trevino participate in this book at all? did he grant you an interview? >> i'm sorry? don: did miguel trevino grant you an interview? >> no, no, i wrote to jose and asked if i could interview him and he wasn't granting interviews. >> host: you write for the texas observer. the nation institute. not exactly bastions of trump supporters necessarily. >> guest: right. >> host: but people could look at your book and say, this is why we need new policies. this is why we need a wall. >> guest: yeah, i think -- actually the book is more about the origins of the violence and what created it in mexico, and that was kind of my ulterior motive for even writing this book because i think in the u.s. we don't really pay much attention to the nature of the conflict that's happening over there. especially now that there's so much going on in our own political world. so, what i wanted, really, was to wrap it up in this really kind of interesting thrilling detective story, but to sort of have the history of the conflict in mexico and how it s

it started the mexican war to the mexicans moved into that area out in the texas militia got togetherzachary taylor goes to texas and takes command of the people. they fight three fairly significant battles and it can go either way. he wins a couple of them and voice are dying, american young men are dying and for quite a number of decades. so winfield scott in washington who is above tailoring command of the army he goes down to the gulf and he takes command from taylor and taylor is left in south texas to u manage things there and the war moves away from taylor. taylor is a legitimate american hero and becomes president of the united states. and i don't know if i would call them enemies really. scott had every right to do with the dead and tea leaves taylor and goes into the gulf of mexico and eventually goes too mexico city and wins the war. now polk is a whole different story. polk is in washington and he offers his own agenda and he cannot stand winfield scott. scott invades the coast of mexico. he can't stand polk any more than polk likes him. polk is telling him what to do and

and i'm a mexican immigrant, so he was talking about me., and many said, "latinos, you are too sensitive. that's not true." and then he was attacking the journalists, the freedom of the press, we said, "look what he's doing." and people didn't pay attention. and he became president, and it's too late. >> trevor: it's interesting that you say as a mexican you felt like he was speaking to you and about you, because it feels like people seem to think trump has the best intentions, until he says something about them. then all of a sudden, people flip and go, like, "this guy is racist. this guy is something-- i never knew it before." do you think it just needs to happen to everyone? >> we knew before. we knew before. when he launched his campaign-- it was june 2015-- he again said a racist-- made a racist comment. and just recently, when he was talking about haitians and people from african nations, saying they come from shit hole countries, that's a racist statement. and when we said judge curiel, because of his mexican heritage, he could not d

it really has transformed the way the mexicans and americans have looked at each other and that is one of the things very honestly that i am most worried about now in this situation and you can see in the polling results in the polls taken by you and others in mexico show that from a 66 favorable view of the united states it has dropped down to 37% favorable view in mexico. when i talk to colleagues and friends they say our sons and daughters who grew up in that post- nafta era who looked at the united states as a close partner and a place to learn in a place to grow sometimes to live but often to go study and come back to mexico are now taking another look at the united states through these lenses and that is, i think, the dangerous potential in this current situation. we don't want to go back to that period of time when ambassador started off her we were characterized as distance neighbors. >> well said. i can't emphasize enough that the current administration's support on issues such as venezuela in the crisis that we are facing their as being part of the partnership that reflects.
