As we’ve often indicated, Spanish-language news media exists primarily as a vehicle for immigration advocacy. However, they are very much invested in shoving the rest of the left-wing policy pupu platter down the community’s throat. In this case, by showcasing Mexico City’s first trans police officer.
Watch as Telemundo does its part to push trans propaganda to the community:

JOHANNA SUAREZ: Mexico City has its first transgender police officer: Orel Morales. He’s been part of that government agency for seven years. And since he began his gender affirmation process in 2023, he says that he has received a lot of support. Issa Osorio spoke with him.
OREL MORALES: My (pronouns are he/him). My name is Orel.
ISSA OSORIO: But it wasn't always like this. Thirty-eight years ago, (he) was born a woman.
MORALES: We have role models…
OSORIO: However, 30 months ago he made the decision to physically become a man and today he is the first transgender police officer in Mexico City.
MORALES: As soon as I explained the situation, they told me, "You know what? There's no problem, you can continue working here." That was my fear, right? That they'd say, "You know what? That's not allowed here." No, my duties haven't changed. They've remained the same.
The first thing you notice is that they spotlight an officer from Mexico City as opposed to one in the States. The reason this is done is because Latino political identity, as manufactured by American leftists, is fundamentally backward-looking. Showcasing a transgender cop in Mexico City is a way of normalizing gender transition for Telemundo’s Spanish-dominant audience.
The report states that this officer underwent the process to “physically become a man.” What does that mean? How far along is she? Has she undergone any surgical interventions or is it just hormone therapy? What assessed impact may including trans officers have on Mexico City's police force? We just don’t know because the report didn’t seek to delve into those real, serious questions. Unfortunately, Telemundo wasn’t interested in delving too far into this subject matter beyond basic Pride propaganda.

OREL MORALES: My (pronouns are he/him). My name is Orel.
ISSA OSORIO: But it wasn't always like this. Thirty-eight years ago, (he) was born a woman.
MORALES:We have role models…
OSORIO: However, 30 months ago he made the decision to physically become a man and today he is the first transgender police officer in Mexico City.
MORALES: As soon as I explained the situation, they told me, "You know what? There's no problem, you can—er—continue working here." That was my fear, wasn't it? They'd tell me, "You know what? It's not allowed here." No, my duties haven't changed. They've remained the same.
OSORIO: According to the National Public Security Census, there are 90,044 police officers in Mexico City. More than half are men.
MORALES: I always had a very androgynous image.
OSORIO: And the Ministry of Security officially recognizes Orel as the corporation's first transgender member.
MORALES: Well yes, living with someone, no.
OSORIO: Orel says he chose that name because it means “Light of God” in Hebrew.
MORALES: Hormone replacement therapy is completely free every so often. For example, I have injections every 14 weeks, and well, that's like, for life.
OSORIO: For Officer Orel Morales, one of his greatest sources of pride is belonging to the police force and from there safeguarding the security of this great city. Orel Morales aspires to become a high-ranking officer within the police force, but also to be a role model and pave the way for more people from the trans community. In Mexico, Issa Osorio, Noticias Telemundo.
