Perhaps because they know that their hours may be numbered, or because they cling to continue in the Cabinet, some albertist ministers decided to go out and play harder in the internal

Front of All

. While

President Alberto Fernández defines for these hours changes in his main cast

, a quartet seemed to be particularly targeted: it is the poker headed by the Chief of Cabinet,

Santiago Cafiero

, plus those in charge of Economy (

Martín Guzmán

), Productive Development (

Matías Kulfas

) and Work (

Claudio Moroni

).

The most sensitive case is that of Cafiero.

The Chief of Cabinet added questions almost since he took office and, having

frustrated the idea of ​​Cristinismo + Sergio Massa to find him an elegant way out

as a candidate in the province of Buenos Aires, the electoral defeat left him on a tightrope.

Fernández tried until this Thursday to support him at least until the general election in November

.

But he would not have succeeded and, as Clarín announced, a new team is already being assembled with another coordinating minister.

As in football, if they throw him out at least he would have his consolation and at the start

he would take Eduardo "Wado" from Pedro, almost his internal political counterpart

.

Santiago Cafiero hugged Alberto Fernández, the day he was sworn in as Chief of Staff.

A pleasure that Fernández himself could not give himself when he resigned as Cristina Kirchner's chief of staff, after the fight with the countryside, and thought that his enemy Julio de Vido would leave behind him.

The Planning Minister remained intact for the 12 K years

.

Returning to the present, and as a collateral effect, the eventual departure of De Pedro opens up a big question mark in the face of the elections.

It is the minister who has been coordinating the organization of the elections with the Justice

.

And the one with the greatest contact with the governors.

Public and private defense


None of the appointed ministers so far has given signs of wanting to leave the Cabinet.

Cafiero spoke the same Monday after the defeat and Guzmán and Kulfas received a symptomatic gesture from the President.

After the debacle at the polls, he added them to some ads

.

A particular situation has arisen with the Minister of Economy, in a love-hate relationship with Christianity

.

At some point, the former president and La Cámpora let their support transcend, then there came harsh criticism for the adjustment she is applying and her pro-agreement stance with the IMF;

but in the last hours they tried to clarify that they were not asking for his head.

Do you prefer that he stay in office until closing with the Fund and then they would advance on that chair?

Criticisms of Kulfas also began almost from the time he took office. And in recent days he had a

particular encounter with former minister Amado Boudou

, who just months ago alleviated his judicial situation, after spending a long time in jail and another in his home, convicted of staying through frontmen with the main printing press of banknotes of the country.

For a survival issue, but also because they believe that it is at a breaking point, several of these ministers are the ones who

internally fired a break with Christianity

. In short, they suggested to Fernández that he accept the resignations of the ministers closest to the vice and reorder the two years of government he has left.

Almost a subsistence plan: no one really believes today that the election can be turned around

.

In their own way,

they are on the opposite side of another "albertista", such as Vilma Ibarra

, who is in favor of seeking a (new) agreement with Cristina and Massa to move forward.

That explains his rush to clarify that Fernández had not accepted the resignation of any minister, when in all the media the departure of De Pedro was given as a fact.


The "folder" to Grabois

In this internal struggle within that motley conglomerate that is the ruling party,

in a sector of Albertism they question the power that social movements continue to accumulate

. At first, they remember "how Carolina Stanley made them grow up." They refer to the former Minister of Social Development of the macrismo, who expanded the scope of the plans, in the rhythm of the crisis and as a way to avoid conflicts in the streets.

But with the arrival of the Frente de Todos, the relationship was far from changing.

And, close to one of the questioned ministers, they

point in particular against Juan Grabois

.

The piquetero reference, close to Pope Francis, is usually a harsh critic of the current situation and, in a much lower step than Cristina, repeats a methodology: he

questions almost like an external agent

, when he has officials who respond to him and manage millionaire budgets .

Juan Grabois also charged hard against Alberto Fernández and his Cabinet.

One of the emblematic cases is that of the

Socio-Urban Integration Secretariat

, led by Fernanda Miño, a reference from Grabois: she is in charge of an ambitious construction plan in villas, created by a law voted during the macrismo with a lot of consensus.

The Secretariat is financed in different ways, but basically with tax resources: according to official data, as of August 20,

the trust would have available about 50,000 million pesos.

But so far, it would have only executed just over 1 billion

.

More officials not working?

Just an internal bill pass?

Most likely a bit of both.
