I am from Cordoba
Santiago Caputo, the President's star advisor, had the commanding voice in the Chamber of Deputies:
"I want the people of Córdoba out of the Government, I want Giordano to leave now."
At that time, Javier Gerardo Milei was in Israel, and had already cried at the Wailing Wall, in the Old City of Jerusalem.
For this reason, all eyes were on the young man who determines the political narrative of La Libertad Avanza and who, together with Karina Milei and the Chief of Staff Nicolás Posse, forms the government's power quartet.
For this reason, the young Caputo asked to remove Cordobanism from the places that he had obtained: the ANSES, the Banco Nación, the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of Public Works and Roads.
But the main fury was in
the vote against a national representative from Córdoba: Alejandra Torres, the wife of Osvaldo Giordano, a highly trained technician who heads the ANSES
, which is the largest fund in the entire administration.
After thus exploding against Cordobanism and, fundamentally, against the Mediterranean governor
Martín Llaryora
, Santiago Caputo had participated in a conclave in the office of Martín Menem after the Chamber of Deputies arranged an intermission.
The Omnibus Law hit a new obstacle that prevented its sanction in particular: which national State companies could be privatized.
There were deputies
Rodrigo De Loredo, Cristian Ritondo, Alejandro Cacace
with the head of the libertarian bloc Oscar Zago and two executive officials: José Rolandi, the deputy chief of staff, and
Maximiliano Matías Fariña, a technician closely trusted by Federico Sturzenegger. who is pointed out as the one who wrote (literally) the failed Omnibus Law.
Fariña had earned the distrust of the seasoned national deputies, in a Chamber where there are political heavyweights such as Miguel Ángel Pichetto, a former head of Deputies such as Emilio Monzó, a former minister such as Florencio Randazzo or a former Buenos Aires governor such as María Eugenia Vidal.
"Who is this kid? Bring someone to make political decisions!"
, said one of the opposition leaders while trying to understand why the ruling party sent the law to committee, without knowing that article 155 of the Regulation of Deputies determines that if a law approved in general returns to committee, it loses that status and goes back on track. zero, everything must be treated from the beginning.
The forces of heaven...

Treason
The fury of Santiago Caputo was gaining followers and attention was directed towards Martín Llaryora
, the brand new governor of Cordoba who seems to have begun a path to participate in the succession of the Peronist leadership.
While with the PRO, the spirits calmed down after the failure of the law: "They brought the PRO to our side, we no longer have 38 deputies, now we have 100," says at this time a man very close to the President and who considers that, from now on, Milei will send initiatives to Congress to confront the political system:
"Now Javier has enemies, he has excuses; it was not a fever, now the campaign tone is coming and those who do not accompany it will be a declared caste before society
. "Let them vote against everything now, let's see...", details the mileista from the first hour.
In the Government they took note of how the majority of the deputies
rejected the intervention of 'Lule' Menem, a political operator who operates in the Deputies as a mileist bishop, along with his cousin Martín.
"Let's go back to the Senate, it's not from here!"
shouted some deputies from the Hacemos bloc when the second nephew of Carlos Saúl Menem entered the room to speak with a legislator, in the middle of the negotiation for the Omnibus Law.
Several assign that empowerment of 'Lule' to the oiled relationship he achieved with Karina Milei.
Freedom, advances...

Chiqui drinks everything
While the Government and a large part of the opposition were dealing with these legislative matters, a power struggle is taking place far from the big lights.
CEAMSE is the public company that manages the AMBA's urban solid waste, in addition to being the owner of the Camino Parque del Buen Ayre highway that crosses the populous districts of Ituzaingó, San Miguel, Hurlingham, Tres de Febrero, San Martín and San Isidro.
In Peronism "they say" that
the person who intends to preside over the Metropolitan Area Ecological Coordination of the State Society is, neither more nor less, than Claudio "Chiqui" Tapia.
The head of the AFA always played politically there, reaching the vice presidency, a place he accessed thanks to his historic relationship with Hugo Antonio Moyano.
But the name "Chiqui" Tapia was vetoed by Milei himself, aware of the intentions of the current boss of Argentine soccer.
Let's go to VAR...

A Gurkha on the right
While Deputies were in session,
the tough Guillermo Moreno was seen having lunch in the Senate last week in the dining room of the Upper House
.
He went there hand in hand with the Peronist senator Cristina López, from Tierra del Fuego.
Moreno's presence altered the usual tranquility in the place.
At first, it was all glances, but then, some senators and officials came up to take selfies with the former Kirchnerism Secretary of Internal Commerce.
Senator López, who took office in December, was the only political leader invited to the main box by the CGT in the strike of the labor union against the Milei Government.
After the selfies, Guillermo Moreno had Roman-style hake with rice for lunch and, for dessert, he ate a portion of cheese and sweet potato.
A little sweetness for the controversial Peronist...
