La Cámpora: Operation Big Brother, fear of Justice and internal fracture

2023-03-19T12:08:13.392Z


Sectors of Máximo Kirchner's group hope that on Sunday night Romina Uhrig, former deputy K, will continue on the program with the highest rating on TV. Meanwhile, internal divisions continue to grow.


Despite the leadership of traditional Peronism, which is beginning to dare to sincerely and brutally criticize the La Cámpora group, led by deputy Máximo Kirchner, this organization managed to get one of its referents to win elections where

the Votes are counted by millions, or hundreds of thousands

.

A former deputy, previously unknown to public opinion, is today perhaps more popular than any of her "colleagues", despite the fact that she never agreed to influence the leadership of that internal movement of the ruling party.

The legislator fulfilled term Romina Uhrig

, referenced in the past in the youth of La Cámpora, managed to overcome at least until now any resistance against her from the extraordinary audience of the reality show Big Brother.

Uhrig was a national deputy for two years, and before that, an official of the Buenos Aires municipality of Moreno,

always under the command of the father of her daughters, Walter Festa.

Tonight, "Romina" will undergo a new vote that could get her out of the house where she has lived almost isolated for five months, non-compulsory confinement, an effort that allowed her to become what she dreamed of: a figure of high knowledge among the public.

The exercise of traditional politics had denied him that privilege.

Unobjectionable sources from La Cámpora told

Clarín

that it is probable that, whether Big Brother wins or not,

Uhrig is again a pre-candidate on some Buenos Aires K list in the August PASO

.

A “camper” achievement?

Rather, a strategy to try to stop the current community chief, Mariel Fernández, a member of the Evita Movement, in the highly populous Buenos Aires district of Moreno.

This group with social insertion and high budget obtained from the State is considered by the Kirchners as a

rival in territories that they consider their own.

K's support for the sudden Uhrig would not be explicit.

Both she and her partner, the former mayor Festa, are being investigated

for illicit enrichment after serving in the public service.

The case is investigated by the fiscal agent Gabriel López, who raided several properties likely owned by this unique couple, based on an Intelligence report from the Financial Information Unit (UIF) that detected a growth in the fortune of both that they never achieved. explain.

The Supreme Court of Buenos Aires is now analyzing these suspicious assets.

Festa, the real leader of Uhrig, was encouraged to declare in the media that "if Cristina Kirchner calls her, she will come back."

A clamor operation but in reverse to which deputy Kirchner's group submits today.

Since her mother was convicted of corruption in the "National Highway" case, a situation that altered her in such a way that in a furious monologue spread through the networks she shook Peronism when she shouted that she would no longer be a candidate for anything.

Kirchnerism entered into a crisis from that day on.

La Cámpora works today

in a state of confusion

, putting together acts to ask that its Chief revise her decision and finally run for PASO and, in case of beating probable rivals, reach the October general elections.

Festa's statements about Uhrig, which demonstrate the high esteem of himself and his partner, perhaps invaded by the euphoria of a spectacular rating for a program in which she is the protagonist, add to other symptoms, sayings, unimagined replicas in the past and actions of

fear of the plain

that devastate the leadership of a previously youthful group that today manages several of the main ministries and organizations with the largest budget in the country.

Added to this are the

increasingly obvious

fractures of the leaders of the movement, who always had ties of tension, although now extreme.

That they have transcended is another proof that nothing is what it was an internal movement of the hyperverticalist PJ that made a cult of the secrecy of its internal movements, or rather an obligation to sustain due to its militancy.

The Minister of Social Development of Buenos Aires, Andrés "Cuervo" Larroque, spokesman for Vice President Cristina Kirchner who punishes President Alberto Fernández on a daily basis,

announced that he is leaving the General Secretary of La Cámpora because he went on to found his own group called "La Homeland is the Other”

.

Did he retire from that position angry with Máximo Kirchner and the rest of his most influential colleagues?

Not so much.

Larroque's link with the Kirchners is one of total loyalty, although for years he has clashed with leaders of the leadership of his group of origin, such as the now mayor of Quilmes, Mayra Mendoza, or the Minister of the Interior, Eduardo De Pedro.

He even disagrees with Máximo Kirchner on how he should support the “orga”

, as they call La Cámpora.

Larroque argues that the work for the future is together with groups should be together with more traditional groups of the PJ, while the deputy son of the vice president is tempted to install a discourse of supposed "left" ideology.

Kirchner led the last act of his group.

It was in a plenary session in Avellaneda where he again criticized the main enemy of the "camporistas": 

the president they themselves anointed, Alberto Fernández,

but in which he also asked the governor of Buenos Aires, Axel Kiciloff, in his own way, to admits to appointing "camper" officials in his administration, something that the president resists, although without breaking the dialogue with Máximo's mother, Cristina, the vice, who adores him.

No more than his son, of course.

The inmates in La Cámpora can be summarized as follows: the leader Máximo Kirchner always commands, supported by the silent national senator Mariano Recalde.

The Minister of the Interior, Eduardo De Pedro, is criticized by Larroque and other colleagues.

The mayor of Quilmes, Mendoza, gained spaces of power.

And who now assumes the leadership of this group that was once arrogant and powerful within Peronism

is Lucía Cámpora, relative of Héctor Cámpora, failed president.

Larroque, with his new movement led by himself, would seek to add groups that are not "campers" with a different discourse from their boss, although not so much.

Everything happens while the traditional leadership of the orthodox PJ, and other satellites of the ruling party, have lost respect for both the Kirchners and La Cámpora in general.

The government spokesman who punishes this sector the most is the Minister of Security, Aníbal Fernández.

He often makes hurtful statements against "the kids", as older officials call them, and therefore, with more political experience.

The phrase that best summarizes the feeling that invades traditional Peronism today regarding the young people who took a good part of the central power and its coffers, and also the main positions of the Justicialista Party of Buenos Aires, could be this: "Crazy, stop inflate your balls because you are screwing Peronism, which interests us all," he said in a statement to the media asking someone to pass it on to Larroque due to his insistent furious criticism of the President of the Republic.

Suddenly, PJ leaders such as Aníbal, and even an enemy of the Head of State, such as Guillermo Moreno, say in interviews that

Cristina Kirchner is no longer who she was

, that she has lost power, and that she does harm by hindering her or lashing out personally or via spokespersons to the President that she herself appointed.

There are several more who speak in this way, and who previously kept silent about the feeling that has invaded them for years due to the arrogance with which La Cámpora emerged in its districts, both in provinces and in municipalities.

The next elections would set

a limit

to the abuses with the support of the Vice that the "campers" used to be used to, a tool with which they built power.

The scenario of confusion in the face of the sole objective of defending Cristina from Justice, and trying to sustain herself thanks to the public budgets they manage, adds to other uncertainties.

Relevant leaders of the group, such as the mayor of Quilmes, Mendoza, or the couple that holds the title of PAMI, the social work for retirees, try with variable ways to solve their problems

in Justice

.

Mendoza is being investigated for possible diversion of public funds to cooperatives of leaders around her.

The heads of PAMI, Luana Volnovich and, above all, her partner and second in command, Martin Rodríguez, suffer from the reactivation of a legal case brought forward by a judge from San Martin, Alicia Vence, who took evidence in a cause that will determine if

more than 50 million pesos

were illegally diverted from the central PAMI to retirement centers in Hurlingham, the party in which Rodríguez is a member.

Festa, the support of the televised Uhrig, also has legal problems beyond the cause of illicit enrichment.

He will face the hearings of an oral and public trial in which he was prosecuted for allegedly embezzling state funds, among other irregularities, having employees appointed

in the municipality of Moreno to extract part of his salary to finance his policies.

Next month, La Cámpora will try to return to the streets with a significant number of those mobilized for the K cause. First, its militants will march on March 24, the day on which the beginning of the last military dictatorship in 1976 is remembered, and especially his crimes against humanity.

The next date called internally for a mobilization is scheduled for April 13.

That day will mark seven years since the first time he had to testify before Judge Claudio Bonadio, the first time he submitted to that procedural situation, in the framework of the case called Future Dollar.

La Cámpora, the Peronism in general that today either criticizes it or remains silent in the face of its legal misfortunes, used to have mobilizing objectives of greater political brilliance.

Tonight it will be known, meanwhile, if Uhrig continues or not within the Big Brother House.
