While welcoming the dialogue with Sheinbaum, members of the Jewish community do not consider her to be part of their ranks, in part because Sheinbaum herself has rejected any such connection. “Claudia has actively tried to say: ‘This is not me,” Schlosser said. “It must be respected when a person does not want to be identified in one way or another.”
… and more of that.
Seems like this article is more preoccupied with her religion, which she clearly states is not a big part of who she is, rather than her policies, which I’d be more interested in hearing about.
TL;DR: Your usual sensationalized headline.
That article is under the religion category and the authors bio states:
Hernández is a reporter on the AP’s global religion team. She is based in Mexico City and covers Latin America.
So yeah, everything she posts is about religion.
Seems pretty disrespectful to the candidate to focus on it when she’s not identifying with it.
Was about to say how disrespectful this article is to her, but wow that reporter especially should have known better.
FWIW, from a Jew- If you say you’re not Jewish, you’re not Jewish.
I don’t care if your name is Shlomo Moishe Cohen. If you tell me you’re not Jewish, I accept that.
And yet there wasn’t anything about how she was dressed.

Being reported for the potentially racially loaded term “gangbangers”, but the fact of the matter is the cartels are allowed to act more or less with impunity.
“Cartel influence over Mexican government officials exists at all levels, and their influence does not stop at the United States-Mexico border. In Mexico, these cartels act with impunity against politicians, government officials, police, and journalists.”

“Gangbangers” is an indelicate term, but talking about the cartels? Not necessarily incorrect.
I don’t care about her gender or background so much as she continues the direction AMLO took the country.
She’s basically AMLO’s puppet.
