No wonder Not only has he been our worst president since we recovered our democracy in 1983, Alberto Fernández has now been accused of gender violence against his partner Fabiola Yáñez. Truth to tell, I’m not surprised at all. The ‘Olivosgate’ birthday party in July 2020 comes to mind. While Seguir leyendo
How can anyone truly believe that dictator Nicolás Maduro is not lying when he says he got 51.2% of the votes last Sunday? A crystal clear election fraud. Doesn’t everybody know that opposition candidates had been banned from running in the election? Human rights abuses, no freedom of speech, millions Seguir leyendo
Last November, when he was still a presidential candidate, Javier Milei went to the Teatro Colón opera house with his girlfriend Fátima Florez to watch a performance of “Madame Butterfly”. Last Tuesday he went with Yuyito Gonzalez to watch “Carmen”. Inevitably, Menem and the frivolous nineties come to mind. We Seguir leyendo
I turned 43 on July 17, 1994. My youngest daughter had just been born. The following day I woke up with the worst piece of news. A terrorist attack, apparently carried out by Hezbollah with the support of Iran, had struck the AMIA Jewish Community Centre in Buenos Aires. Over Seguir leyendo
I’m not a football fan myself, but I must admit our Argentine national team is worthy of absolute admiration. Particularly if we compare it with our lousy “political team,” which has been far from successful for ages. How on earth can we have such brilliant sportsmen, such outstanding scientists and Seguir leyendo
I find President Milei’s frequent insults unacceptable in a leader. He has called Colombian President Gustavo Petro a “murdering terrorist,” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s wife “corrupt,” and has said Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador was “ignorant.” Last year he attacked Pope Francis, calling him “an imbecile who defends Seguir leyendo
There was a piece of fake news early this week announcing Noam Chomsky’s death. Actually, the famed linguist and activist, 95, was hospitalized in Brazil some time ago, recovering from a stroke, and is now at home, said his wife Valeria Vasserman Chomsky. Way back in 1970, I spent a Seguir leyendo
I’m sure most Argentines don’t approve of the savage demonstration outside the National Congress building last Wednesday. People’s right to protest is genuine and understandable, but that doesn’t mean breaking, wreaking havoc, setting fire to cars and throwing Molotov cocktails, grenades and stones to riot police and Border Guard officers.

Last Wednesday evening, Archbishop Jorge García Cuerva opened up the Metropolitan Cathedral, located quite close to the Pink House, to feed poor people.“Pour la galerie,” if I may say. Quite theatrical indeed. All of a sudden, the Catholic Church and the Pope himself have realised that there’s hunger and extreme Seguir leyendo
President Milei is being harshly criticized because he’s meeting with “four of the 10 most important businessmen in the world” (the CEOs of Meta, Google, Apple and OpenAI). I wonder if those critics would rather have him go to Venezuela, Cuba or Iran. We are in urgent need of investors, Seguir leyendo
