In an analysis in CNN in Spanish with Mario González, some experts talked about the actions of the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, about the resignation of the Minister of the Supreme Court of Justice Eduardo Medina Mora who is allegedly investigated for a case of laundering of money. It is the first time since 1994 that a minister resigns. "The resignation of Median Mora seems like a game outside the law," said Andriana Greaves, co-founder of Tojil. "It is normal for the supreme courts of justice in the world the president in turn try to get people if it is more progressive if they are or liberal if they are liberal," said analyst Sabino Batidas. Recently, the President of the Supreme Court reported that he received pressure from former President Felipe Calderón in various cases brought before the ministers. Calderón denied the accusations. "It seems that we are returning to a time of super-powerful president and the judiciary should be an indispensable counterweight," said analyst Alfoso Zárate.
