Childish politicians

When I heard Alberto Fernández say it didn’t make sense to meet the current President after the PASO, I felt so upset. As upset as when an angry President Macri “scolded” the people who didn’t vote for “Cambiemos” last Sunday. Fortunately, both retrieved their steps. Fernández finally got in touch Seguir leyendo

Haters

It’s almost inevitable to link the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas (Aug 3) with the racism US President has always tolerated and even promoted.  Trump has described Mexican immigrants as “invaders”, “criminals”, “gang members”, “rapists”. His language is offensive, prejudiced, bigoted. There’s a saying in Spanish: “El pescado se pudre Seguir leyendo

Maduro’s Guru?!

I could hardly believe it when I saw the picture! Nicolás Maduro and Ravi Shankar, both smiling and shaking hands?! A humanitarian and spiritual leader next to a ruthless dictator who persecutes, imprisons and tortures opponents?  Maduro, a pathetical, clownish character who has forced thousands of Venezuelans to leave their homeland, Seguir leyendo

American Dream?!

“After July 4, a lot of people are going to be brought back. They go back home. ICE is going to be apprehending them and bringing them back to their countries».  US President Trump’s words, referring to his adamant decision to deport undocumented immigrants after Independence Day.  I wonder what Martin Luther Seguir leyendo

Rat race

All Argentine politicians suffer from FOMO: fear of missing out. This has been clearly seen these last few weeks. They’re all doing their best to fit somewhere, to get something, to approach someone, however alien that someone might seem. They’ve been running a frantic race against the clock, shamelessly, ruthlessly, Seguir leyendo
