    She undoubtedly deserves praise for these changes, but the left needs to keep her in check. There is not enough talk about her hawkish policies including taking unconstitutional control of the National Guard.

    “Critics say that the military by nature is an opaque and guarded institution in Mexico. Shifting more responsibilities to the military further reduces government transparency.”

    “Amnesty International warned before the National Guard was put under military control in 2022 that doing so would lead to more human rights violations. Opposition parties also opposed the move.” https://mexiconewsdaily.com/politics/president-elect-sheinbaum-support-military-control-national-guard/

    She is also supportive of expanding surveillance of citizens, but I wasn’t able to find the article where I came across it.
