January 1, Billboard Truck Warns of Mexican Consulate Election Sway

Wyatt’s Take

• A truck outside the Mexican Embassy raises alarms about foreign election influence.
• The ad accuses Mexico’s consulates of meddling in U.S. politics using taxpayer dollars.
• Official denials have not slowed down the book or its message spreading nationwide.

Workers in Washington, DC, spotted a billboard truck parked outside the Mexican Embassy this week. Its side panel claimed, “Mexico’s 50+ consulates are running a shadow campaign to sway U.S. elections. WHY?”

The truck’s display showed Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum with shadowy figures behind her. The setup looked like the U.S. Capitol, hinting at hidden foreign power in high places.

The back of the truck promoted a bestselling book, The Invisible Coup, and its website TheInvisibleCoup.com. The book cover features powerful leaders from the U.S., Mexico, and China, underlining the scope of the author’s warning.

The ad campaign follows weeks of heated talk after Peter Schweizer’s book hit shelves. Schweizer, who leads the Government Accountability Institute, writes that Mexican consulates outnumber those operated by Britain nearly tenfold and have been used to interfere in U.S. politics. His claims include organizing pro-immigration protests and spreading one-sided news through Migrant TV.

Schweizer says Migrant TV reached millions with campaign messages, urging support for Democrats and attacking former President Trump and his border policies. He points to a former Mexican president’s 2017 tour rallying migrants in the U.S. as proof of meddling.

Mexico’s ambassador, Esteban Moctezuma Barragán, pushed back, telling CBS News:

“It’s completely false because, as you know, we follow the Vienna Convention, that has very clear… laws for every country. What we do in the United States is what the U.S. does in Mexico.”

President Sheinbaum also denied interference:

“Consulates have a role determined by international laws, and what our consulates essentially do is provide protection and assistance to Mexicans in the United States. We categorically deny that they are doing anything related to U.S. politics. We are very respectful. If we demand non‑intervention from other countries, we obviously comply with that constitutional principle ourselves.”

Despite denials, the book’s message keeps gaining attention. Art displays about The Invisible Coup have popped up in California’s big cities showing foreign jets and politicians in military dress. In New York’s Times Square, a two-panel billboard claimed terrorist groups help push certain members into Congress, showing their faces atop the Twin Towers to drive the point home.

Schweizer’s book is at the center of a national conversation about outside influence and was the top seller on release, fueling further debate as his claims spread.

If you’re tired of feeling unheard by Washington elites and want to know how foreign interests are getting involved in American life, it’s time to pay attention to stories like these.
