The outgoing minister does not want to put her signature on the attacks against the Judiciary and is tired of the wear and tear to which Christianity subjected her. The vice president prepares complaints of a more political nature, including against members of the Court.

Marcela Losardo

is not burdened

by having to clarify her contacts with the prosecutor Carlos Stornelli.

It is burdened by

the policy of attrition

to which Christianity subjected it since almost the start of the Government.

President Alberto Fernández confirmed the scoop of

Clarín

last Saturday in the sense that one of his most precious bishops is leaving the Government, but he explained it with

arguments that collide with reality

.

"The last straw is for Stornelli to say that he called her to show solidarity and she doesn't know Stornelli.

She doesn't even have Stornelli's phone number

. And suddenly being involved in such things is something that, for someone who doesn't come from politics, it is exhausting, "said the head of state.

But in reality,

the erosion came from Christianity

.

Support for the prosecutor of the Cuadernos de las Coimas

is prior to the appointment of Alberto as a candidate for president of the Frente de Todos

.

And it has to do with the same consideration that the president had for Stornelli, before, at the beginning of 2019, Cristina launched Operative Puf.

Those were times when

Alberto invited Stornelli to have coffee

in the Callao 1960 studio that he shared with Losardo for 20 years.

Everything changed

after the president's speech on March 1

at the opening of the ordinary sessions of Congress.

It was because of Alberto's words, according to which Justice

"seems to live on the margins of democracy."

Losardo understood that day that

there was no room

in the Government for

the nuances

on how to defend Vice President Cristina Kirchner for the eight prosecutions she has.

It is one thing to do it from the law and another from

dirty politics.

Losardo, since he took office, showed a moderate profile regarding the relationship with Justice and, he also made it clear, that

he does not want to do the “dirty work”

implied by

the new stage

that Cristina wants from her confrontation with Justice.

Two weeks ago he showed

the most he could do

with a thread of tweets criticizing the prosecutor Stornelli and,

for the first time, without much enthusiasm, he endorsed the account of the lawfare

.

But the president asked at the opening of the ordinary sessions of Congress an

unprecedented "bicameral commission of cross control" of the Justice

, according to Cristina's wishes.

The following day, Losardo explained that it would be

"unconstitutional"

if the commission served to sanction or dismiss judges.

These functions, had a didactic and non-political tone, correspond to the Council of the Magistracy for the judges and the Congress for the members of the Court.

There he showed his limits and

emptied the commission promoted by Oscar Parrilli and Graciana Peñafort of content.

On the other hand, other "Taliban" of Cristina, such as Leopoldo Moreau, announced that they will make a complaint of

"a systematic plan"

to persecute Cristina, which, in their opinion, includes, for example, the member of the Court, Ricardo Lorenzetti.

And other measures for the rest of the members of the Court,

attacked one by one in the letter from the vice president

last December

.

The wear and tear of Christianity began with imposing on the former number two of the AFI as its second, control of the Federal Penitentiary Service and

the humiliation of not being consulted

by the senators' bloc

when they changed the meaning of the judicial reform project

that had been sent to the Congress.

Moreau, an adulterer of Cristina, said it with all the words of the battery of measures against Justice: Losardo only publicly defended the candidacy of Judge Daniel Rafecas to the Attorney General's Office.

When President Fernández was asked if he knew the deputy Martín Soria (son of the late Carlos Soria, former governor of Río Negro) and Ramiro Gutiérrez, he replied: "Yes, I know them both, they

are prestigious people

. We have to see. see how to solve it. Obviously, everyone gets splashed before they start talking, right? "

In choosing Losardo's successor, Alberto

will also show his degree of independence from Cristina

.

Martín Soria has the right profile for the dirty stage

that is coming, of confrontation against Justice.

Not only for his posts with phrases such as

"lawfare al palo" or "Comodoro PRO"

, but also for having

signed

the latest complaints from the Instituto Patria.

From the Macrista pressures on Cassation Judge Ana Figueroa to the "crime" of his colleague Gustavo Hornos of officially visiting the Casa Rosada to meet with Macri.

For Christianity that Amado Boudou attended the 73rd birthday of the then member of the Court, Eugenio Zaffaroni,

it was not a crime but a social event

.

Nor that De Vido has given televisions and computers to judges of the highest court of Cassation.

Soria, in the last session, presented

a question of privilege

to point against the Judicial Power.

He described it as "

stale, corrupt and without a trace

of independence or impartiality."

On the other hand, Gutiérrez is known to come from the sector of the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Sergio Massa.

And that Cristina in 2016, in the famous conversation in which she tried to "asshole" Parrilli had said that

the then leader of the Renovador Front

had to be

"holed up"

.

With the election of the future Minister of Justice,

the margin of negotiation that remains for the president within the Frente de Todos will have to be seen.
