Sheinbaum at the Niños Héroes. Then Hidalgo. Trump’s compliment stays a mood.

President Claudia Sheinbaum marks the Niños Héroes at Chapultepec on Sunday, then goes to Pachuca for Honestidad y resultados, her second informe on the road. It is her fifteenth trip to Hidalgo. The Mexico desk files a ceremony and a gira, not a treaty.
Trump, in Dublin Saturday, said he would have a great relationship with Mexico and would not walk off USMCA. Sheinbaum’s line has not moved: she will not sign anything that hits sovereignty or the economy. Washington tabled 54 points. Reuters: both capitals want a bilateral patch before the Nov. 3 midterm. Canada is at a separate table.
No vamos a firmar nada que afecte a nuestra soberanía o a la economía.

The compliment is a mood. The 54 points are the paper. Eight weeks. Diesel is a record. The Mexico desk files Sunday as it is: cadets on a hill, a dome in Pachuca, and a treaty that still has to clear.

Sheinbaum: you cannot swear to two flags. She named who voted no.
PRI, PAN, Movimiento Ciudadano. The floor is Sept. 21–23. One homeland, she said again.
