Claudia Sheibaum won the presidential election in Mexico, becoming the first woman elected president and first Jewish person elected president in North America. Not everyone was happy with this news, however, including Zionists who tried to smear her as a fake Jew and as thanking Jesus. The only problem is Jesús is the name of her husband and the Jesus she thanked.
