Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum is eyeing sanctions against Chihuahua State's government for letting CIA agents join a raid on drug labs without federal, okay? This blew up after a crash killed two U.S. officials and two Mexican investigators as they headed back from the operation near the Texas border. Earlier this week, a U.S. official confirmed the CIA's role to reporters. Scheinbaum made it clear during her briefing that no American agents should operate on Mexican soil unless it's run through proper channels between the two countries. Folks are reacting to the messy stories coming from both sides, which point to deeper U.S. hands in Mexico's security fights. Experts say it shows how things are heating up regionally against cartels, even as the Mexican army did join the state-led effort. Scheinbaum admitted the army helped out since that's their job with states, but stressed the feds had no clue about the CIA crew. She's ruling out any big shift from the Trump team pushing harder on cartels.

She fired off a letter to the U.S. ambassador, demanding full details and plans to chat with Chihuahua's governor soon. Bottom line? She's drawing a hard line to keep federal control tight on these cross-border ups. You've been listening to Canada News today, AI-powered local news.
