MEXICO CITY'S IMPENDING EARTHQUAKE CRISIS
AND CANADA'S WILDFIRES: WE ARE NOT READY AND TRUMP IS MAKING IT WORSE


AS MEXICO CITY SINKS 10 INCHES A YEAR, WHICH CAN BE SEEN FROM SPACE, TRUMP IS THREATENING CANADA WITH MORE TARRIFS OVER THE WILDFIRES

If there was ever a time, the US, Mexico and Canada should be solid in their relations, it is now.

Mexico City has a history of strong earthquakes.  You do not have to be a geologist to understand how unstable the land is beneath Mexico City. We are not ready to help with a mass earthquake in Mexico City. 

The Canadian fires are impacting the air quality in the Northern US states.  

Nature knowns no borders.  Trump's actions towards Canada make clear he is not interested in the global relationship between the tree countries.  Any major catastrophe which impacts one, impacts all three.

FROM NEWS SOURCES:

"MEXICO CITY (AP) Mexico City is sinking by nearly 10 inches (about 25 centimeters) a year, according to new satellite imagery released this week by NASA, making it one of the world’s fastest-subsiding metropolises.

One of the world’s most sprawling and populated urban areas, at 3,000 square miles (about 7,800 square kilometers) and some 22 million people, the Mexican capital and surrounding cities were built atop an ancient lake bed. Many downtown streets were once canals, a tradition that continues in the rural fringes."

"“It damages part of the critical infrastructure of Mexico City, such as the subway, the drainage system, the water, the potable water system, housing and streets,” said Enrique Cabral, a researcher studying geophysics at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. “It’s a very big problem."

"US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose new tariffs on Canada after hundreds of wildfires have left much of the northern US covered by a blanket of smoke.

...


"The United States is being unnecessarily invaded by filthy, polluted, and unhealthy air," Trump said, threatening to impose new levies over Canada's "willful negligence".


As of Saturday, there were about 955 fires actively burning in Canada, according to the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System - with the majority burning out of control.


More than 190 of those blazes are burning in Ontario, some out of control.


Trump said in his post to Truth Social that he would call Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to demand an explanation over his country's "willful negligence," accusing the country of "not properly maintaining" their forests and brush.

Fronton in Spanish means bluff.  This area was a bluff overlooking the Rio Grande before the upriver dams.

The son of Mexican immigrants put on a federal judge's robe when no one who looked like him ever had. ⚖️
Reynaldo G. Garza grew up in Brownsville, Texas, one of many children in a hardworking family, and became a lawyer and a pillar of his community. In 1961 President Kennedy appointed him to the federal bench, making him the first Mexican American United States federal district judge in the nation's history.
He was respected across party lines for his fairness and his humility, and he never forgot the barrio he came from. He later turned down a cabinet position, choosing instead to keep serving the people of South Texas he loved. He simply wanted to do the work well and open the door for those behind him.
Every Latino judge who followed walked through a door that Reynaldo Garza opened first. 🇺🇸

Had you heard of the first Mexican American federal judge before today?

VICENTE GONZALEZ CANNOT HIDE IN THE SHADOWS AFTER VOTING TO CONTINUE TO FUND ISRAEL'S GENOCIDE OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE

I will assume Vicente's Republican opponent will be no better.  But his opponent is not the one who voted today to continue aid to help Israel with its war of genocide against the Palestinians.

All I can say is not in my name.

GABRIELA GARCIA [PEDRAZA] WITH JORGE PEDRAZA
The photo is dated 2019.  In the same post Jorge Pedraza said of Judge Garcia, "Very loyal, honest, and understanding."

I am very concerned Judge Garcia was never informed about security measures Texas provides to judges.  There is way too much information online about her which is public, which should be suppressed.  Texas law provides this benefit. But you have to ask for it.

It is fair to say the address tied to her and Jorge Pedraza is his separate property, via inheritance. I cannot say she lives there, but public records have tax bills being sent to the address in her name. 

Public records certainly explain why Jorge Pedraza considers her very loyal.  This is clearly a private matter between them.

But publicly, she has represented him in court.

JORGE C. PEDRAZA FILED SUIT FOR JJ PEDRAZA IN 2022, AS NEXT OF FRIEND

The case is 022-CCL-00680.  The case was filed by attorney Javier Villarreal.  Javier appears to be the family attorney for personal injury. I assume Judge Garcia informs all defense counsel the family uses Javier Villarreal as their personal injury attorney.  Such knowledge would form a basis for recusal in all such cases.

NOW ENTERS LOUIS SOROLA


Public records show Louis Sorola was representing Jorge Pedraza at the same time he was conspiring against John Doe.  Gabriela Garcia knew this, concealed it, and should have recused herself.  It was a car crash case in Cyndi Hinojosa's court.  You should know when Sorola filed the case, he chose Cyndi Hinojosa as forum shopping.  He could not file it in his wife's court, and at the time the Sorola's were in a battle with Linda Salazar over weddings.  The case is 2023-GSC-00171.

Either Gabriela Garcia or Jorge Pedraza were paying Sorola, at the same time Garcia was guaranteeing Sorola was being paid with public funds to screw over John Doe. Now because it is a car crash case, Sorola could have been on a percentage, or did it for free.  Property damage cases only are generally filed in JP court.  If it was a freebee, that makes it worse for all concerned.

If this is not an indictable offense nothing is.

I am really hopeful before midnight I will have the mandamus filed against the COB in my case, so I can then move forward on this case.

A RECKLESS CHILD HAS NO DEFENSE

Jorge Javier Pedraza has a ticket before Bennie Ochoa Jr.  It is unsafe speed, traffic crash dated May 15, 2026.

Two weeks later he is charged with driving 76-mph in a 65-mph zone.  The case is before Cyndi Hinojosa. She needs to recuse herself from the case.  No Cameron County judge should be allowed to preside over the case of another judge's family member.

In both cases the address listed for Pedraza is the same address tax records record the residence of Gabriela Garcia and a Jorge Pedraza Sr.  

I will say I have very little trust in Cameron County tax records.  But I can legally rely on what I found online.  

I think it is safe that since Jorge Javier Pedraza is the same Pedraza listed on the residence of Gabriela Garcia and Jorge Pedraza, they are all related.

So, two weeks after driving in an unsafe speed and crashing, Pedraza gets stopped again for speeding.

Anyone want to defend this young man as not being reckless in his decision making?

I am inferring facts based on the fact Pedraza in all his cases including the PI case is tied to the same address.

So, he stands next to a parking lot fight and gets pushed into the fight, and his mommy wants us to believe he is a careful son. 

I am certain the bar owner's attorney will develop all of this, but Pedraza seems to me to be a reckless child of a judge who believes he can get away with things. 

I will note, when I speak to attorneys about Gabriela Garcia, they go silent.  Noone seems to know if she was ever married to Jorge Pedraza or is currently married.  But public records have them sharing an address, and at a time at the same address Gabriela Garcia was known as Gabriela Pedraza.

Further, public records show Gabriela Garcia has represented Jorge Pedraza in court at least twice.

How I link them all I do not disclose for security reasons.
