Welcome to Barf Bag, a daily politics roundup to help you sort through the chaotic Trumpian news cycle.

For years archeologists have been hunting for a royal tomb somewhere in the ancient Mexican city of Teotihuacán. This year they thought they were close, but it seems they’ve struck out. This is disappointing not only because it would have been an awesome archeological discovery, but also because the lead archeologist…

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas), who is wrong about most things, inevitably found himself in the tricky position of getting scolded by a small child at an Arkansas town hall meeting on Wednesday night.

At a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Theresa May—whose name was spelled wrong three times by the White House ahead of her sit-down meeting with Trump—our president emphasized the importance of the U.K.-U.S. relationship. “This is our first visit. So. Great honor,” he said, as he read an opening…

Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto has canceled his January trip to the US and said he will not sit down with Donald Trump, who continues to insist he will force Mexico to reimburse U.S. taxpayers for his proposed $12 billion dollar wall that will act, more than anything, as a concrete middle finger to Mexico.

Here’s a forthcoming comedy starring Mexican comedian Eugenio Derbez and Salma Hayek, the former of which bought the film through his company 3pas Studios. In it, Derbez plays a kept man married to an aging rich white lady, who also apparently attempts to seduce Kristen Bell with his “Latin loverness,” eugghhh.

Last week, Grammy-winning musician Lila Downs released “El Demagogo”/“The Demagogue,” her first song since 2015's sublime Balas y Chocolate, as part of the 30 Days 30 Songs anti-Trump initiative. Sung in both English and Spanish, it’s a beautiful folk song that lays out the numerous issues with Trump and his virulent…

This election has been an objective nightmare, but at long last, we finally have some good news. In a little over 12 hours, Donald Trump could be heading to Mexico. And if Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto has even a sliver of a heart, he’ll let him in. Because god knows we need this.

Season 3 of Bachelor in Paradise has been reliably excellent, as nothing will ever be bad about a group of hardbodied Instagram salesmen competing to be in relationships with each other in a crab-infested cabana with no air conditioning.

Frida Kahlo, since her death 62 years ago today, has become such a staple of American culture so as to seem ubiquitous. Her indelible, inimitable self-portraits have been reproduced on coasters and playing cards, earrings and t-shirts, pillow cases and pajama pants. Each Halloween, thousands of revelers across the…

I may not celebrate Easter myself, but from what I can tell, marshmallow Peeps and multi-colored eggs have nothing on the mad Easter game Mexico is running right now.

Julianne Hough, her three sisters, and her mom are having an extremely hardcore vacation right now in Mexico, as evidenced by some recent photos that show a couple of them yakking off the side of a boat. My ladies, what happens in Cabo literally never stays in Cabo!

CNN Politics decided to put Trump’s proposed border-long monument to xenophobia to the test by asking a group civil engineers exactly what would go into the project and how much time/energy/bombast it would take. Unsurprisingly, the wall Mexico should just be super chill about paying for turned out to be what many…

Donald Trump, a horking mole-creature suffering from radioactive spray-tan, has promised throughout his entire campaign that if elected, his immigration policy will consist of a big-ass wall along the border that “Mexico will pay for.”

After escaping from prison last summer, Mexico’s most powerful drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman surely found himself with a busy schedule trying to run the Sinaloa cartel and also stay out of prison.
