Cristina Fernández de Kirchner is not being politically persecuted. She has been judged and convicted for fraudulent administration in the awarding of public works contracts in Santa Cruz Province. Moreover, she has also been permanently disqualified from holding public office. That’s it. We are all equal before the law, regardless Seguir leyendo
We Argentinians get distracted so easily! For a whole week, we’ve been destroying Ricardo Darín for what he said at Mirtha Legrand’s table. The media too. If this awesome actor can afford “empanadas” at forty eight thousand pesos the dozen, good for him. Maybe it wasn’t a “popular” example, ‘cause Seguir leyendo
Fortunately, I grew up in a home where there were lots of books. My parents were enthusiastic readers, and I guess that habit was quite catching. I studied English at the University of La Plata in the 1970s and graduated as an English Language and English Literature teacher. I had Seguir leyendo
“We don’t hate journalists enough”, said Javier Milei recently. Critical journalists and reporters are described by him as the “new caste.” They are “the enemy” in his eyes. I find it hard to link the President’s constant hateful attack on the press with “The Forces of Heaven” he advocates. Is Seguir leyendo
“I want to announce that we have ended our relationship with Javier Milei. I have decided to end it and he has too. This is mutual; we are perfectly fine, in perfect terms, but we have made this decision with dignity, fortitude, and maturity,” announced Amalia González on her daily Seguir leyendo

From time to time, a movie, a play or a TV show, or a piece of news, triggers a global and healthy discussion about really important issues. Now it’s the turn of the Netflix series «Adolescence», which has given us plenty of food for thought. That stage in life has Seguir leyendo
Am I the only one who feels President Trump is a very dangerous leader for the whole world? I know he was legitimately chosen by US voters, but I wonder if they really knew what he is capable of. He has all the characteristics of a bully, insulting and offending Seguir leyendo
Another “master class” by Lionel Scaloni and his boys. I’m not a football fan myself, but every time I see them playing or I listen to the manager of Argentina’s national team, I can’t help wondering why on earth we have such good sportsmen, on the one hand, and such Seguir leyendo
For some strange reason (maybe influenced by Virginia Woolf’s stream of consciousness technique), I’ve linked Maradona’s and Gene Hackman’s deaths. Both celebrities, both millionaires, yet both died alone, abandoned to their fate. Prosecutors have described Maradona’s final days as the “horror theatre”. Disorder, no medical items in his untidy bedroom, Seguir leyendo
