· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
On the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Ronald Johnson defended the designation of several Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, a move initiated by former President Donald Trump. During a memorial ceremony in Mexico City, Johnson emphasized that terrorist organizations adapt their methods and networks, highlighting the violence and intimidation used by these cartels. He listed the Sinaloa Cartel, CJNG, and others as threats beyond drug trafficking, linking this security policy to the remembrance of the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001. Johnson also praised the solidarity shown by Mexicans during the aftermath of the attacks.
