CINCO DE MAYO : WHO IS TO BLAME?

Who’s to blame for Cinco de Mayo?

This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) speaks with writer, producer and fellow podcaster Jorge Molina about who’s to blame for the confluence of events which resulted in The Battle of Puebla. Or as it’s more popularly known, Cinco de Mayo. Not to be confused with Mexican Independence as Jorge, a Mexico native himself, reminds us. Who’s Maximilian? What are Jecker Bonds? And why is the Louisiana Purchase involved? Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early help crack the case.
