Wait a minute! They must be kidding! Is it true that our members of Congress will get a 30% pay rise? Right now, of all times? Will they pocket 2 and a half million pesos per month? Have Martin Menem and Victoria Villarruel actually approved that? There must be some Seguir leyendo
The year has just started, but so much has happened since Milei took office last December, that it feels like 2024 is about to end. We’re all worn out, exhausted, dead beat, knackered and bushed. Is the worst yet to come, we wonder. It’s a war of all against all, Seguir leyendo
Chill out, Mr President! Javier Milei keeps insulting his opponents, calling them “traitors,” “rats,” “criminals,” “trash,” among other nasty things. He seems to forget his role as president. He’s much more relevant and influential than the average citizen; therefore, he should mind his mouth, his tongue, his manners. Actually, his Seguir leyendo
Someone should remind both Fernández (Alberto & Cristina) that silence is golden. Alberto reappeared at a book presentation in Madrid (his new place in the world) with the author Agustín Fontenla. The title of the novel in question is Desconexión, quite suitable for someone like our former president, who was Seguir leyendo

Nine years have gone by since special AMIA prosecutor Alberto Nisman was found dead with a bullet through his head in his Puerto Madero flat. Suicide or magnicide? An unsolved mystery. No justice yet. No one has paid for what happened. Four days before his death, Nisman had denounced Cristina Seguir leyendo
“Maduro calls Milei’s decree ‘insane’ and a ‘disaster.’” Look who’s talking! The guy who assured Hugo Chávez gave him his blessing through a small bird on the first day of his official campaign for the Presidency. The one who violates human rights on a regular basis. The one who harasses Seguir leyendo
This is the best time of the year to make a wish. Or wishes, for that matter. Every new year is a fresh start, a blank page, a reset button, a huge challenge, a good moment to stop and think. Mind you, I’m not thinking of miracles, of out of Seguir leyendo
Consumer disobedience In the midst of the soaring inflation we are all suffering in Argentina, a writing by Henry Thoreau from my college years comes to mind: “On civil disobedience” (1849). Its premise was “people shouldn’t allow the government to overrule their consciences.” I wonder, wouldn’t it be a good Seguir leyendo
