Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has launched a comprehensive housing initiative to address the country's housing deficit by building a million homes and offering zero-interest mortgages.

The program, aimed at supporting vulnerable groups, focuses on female-led households, young people, Indigenous communities and senior citizens. The announcement is a fulfillment of Sheinbaum's campaign promise to create affordable housing and promote equitable urban development.

His crime occurred before his presidency. Regardless more than 50% voted for him for the 2nd term... Also he literally sold pardons lmfao

I'm not a fucking idiot, I know that. Calling someone a "felon" implies a conviction.
