| 0:00.0 | Chaos in Mexico. |
| 0:07.4 | U.S. tourists are currently trapped. |
| 0:09.6 | Airlines are shutting down. |
| 0:11.1 | Insane videos of car bombs, explosions, fires, gunshots ringing out, people running and screaming |
| 0:19.3 | in airports. |
| 0:24.4 | All of this in retaliation for killing a cartel leader that some say, well I should say according to some reports, was at the behest of Donald |
| 0:29.6 | Trump, who continued by saying it's only just begun. 25 Mexican National Guard were killed |
| 0:36.2 | in these attacks. And it is expected to continue right now. |
| 0:40.5 | We're getting reports that security forces are currently still battling cartel members. And it's |
| 0:44.9 | popping off across the country. Now, I would argue it seems the cartel's retaliation is basically |

| 1:38.1 | up. Now that Trump has effectively said, if you actually, I'm pretty sure we have to report. |
| 1:42.7 | Trump did say this. The Trump admin told Mexico, if you don't stop the cartels we will so Mexico launches an operation |
| 1:50.2 | they kill elmenscho and this is kicking off like crazy there's no reason to believe it's going to |
