America could wipe its southern neighbor off the globe. It’s imperative they cooperate.
Because now Mexico is cowering in fear after Trump made one simple demand.
Mexico’s Toxic Sewage Flood Invades Southern California
Southern California’s border communities are under siege from a relentless wave of raw sewage pouring in from Mexico, turning pristine coastal air into a nauseating haze of human waste and decay.
Local officials are scrambling to distribute air purifiers as a desperate stopgap, but the root of the problem—Mexico’s chronic failure to manage its overflowing wastewater infrastructure—continues to poison American neighborhoods unchecked.
Daily Deluge: 25 Million Gallons of Filth from Across the Border
Every single day, an estimated 25 million gallons of untreated sewage from Mexico gushes into the Pacific Ocean via the Tijuana River, slamming into San Diego County’s South Bay like a toxic tidal wave.
The stench—reminiscent of overflowing porta-potties—has infiltrated homes, schools, and beaches, forcing beach closures that stretch over 1,300 consecutive days and crippling local economies reliant on tourism.
The crisis exploded last week when a ruptured Mexican sewer line unleashed an additional 120,000 gallons straight into the area, compounding the nightmare.
Longtime resident Leon Benham, who’s endured this for over 60 years and founded Citizens for Coast Conservancy, described the horror to KGTV: “When the offshore flow comes in, we can smell the stink, you know, we can smell it.” His backyard, like countless others, is now a contaminated wasteland, with plummeting home values and disrupted Navy SEAL training as collateral damage.
Baron Parlow of Stop the Poop dismissed the air purifier handouts from the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District as woefully inadequate in a CBS 8 interview, demanding:
“Where [are] all the tough sanctions on the source Mexico? Where’s all the pressure to get Mexico to stop the poo?” Residents agree—it’s a band-aid on a gaping wound inflicted by Mexico’s negligence.
Trump’s Fiery Demand Echoes Nationwide Frustration
The outrage boiled over to the White House by Wednesday, with President Donald Trump blasting Mexico on Truth Social:
“Mexico must take care of its water and sewage problem, IMMEDIATELY. It is a true Threat to the People of Texas, California, and the United States of America!” He attached a local news clip exposing the full extent of the border-born disaster.
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin swiftly backed the call on X:
“The Trump Admin has been taking important action to PERMANENTLY END the flow of disgusting raw sewage from Mexico into the United States. We are working very closely with our Mexican counterparts to ensure San Diego area beaches can reopen, foul odors cease, and the Tijuana River Valley gets cleaned up as quickly as humanly possible. This will also be great for our Navy SEALs who train in the area.”
