AMLO's message about the fuel shortage
In the face of the lack of a schedule that clearly defines the dates when fuel supply will go back to normal in some states and in Mexico City, President López Obrador called on society to support the fight against fuel theft . We've been told that the President released a message on social media on Saturday, where he asked citizens to save fuel because the Presidential cabinet hasn't been able to solve the fuel shortage . At the same time, Morena's president, Yeidckol Polevnsky joined in. The government and its party support the strategy, which is disliked by consumers , who are angrier as the days go by and want to block roads.
Crucial times for the National Guard
During the public audiences about the National Guard , the softness of some PRI Governors and the roughness of some PAN Governors called the attention of many. We've been told that a sign from the PRI that could indicate if there will be a majority to approve the reform, pushed by Morena's parliamentary coordinator, Mario Delgado Carrillo . We've been told that it's thought that the bill will be discussed and voted next week. What's comes after AMLO's government said it will accept a civilian command ? The approval from Congress and then it will be sent to the Senate . This is when the question made by Damián Zepeda becomes relevant, “if the National Guard isn't approved, are the armed forces going to return to their headquarters?.” The National Defense Minister, Luis Cresencio Sandoval González, and the Navy Minister, José Rafael Ojeda Durán , didn't answer the question. Next week will be crucial for the National Guard.
A runway of contenders
By the way, the Senate will open a runway, which is not part of the constitutional procedure that has to be carried out for the designation of the Attorney General, a position that is considered for the notorious lawyer, Bernardo Batiz, who was Mexico City's prosecutor when López Obrador was mayor . The head of Mexico's General Prosecutor's Office (PGR), A lejandro Gertz Maner o, will also be present on Friday. He is said to have been blunt, laconic, or precise to explain what the public ministry needs during the audiences about the National Guard . We've been told that we didn't seem to be involved in the topic, is he distracted?
The PRI needs help from the INE
You might not believe this, but some PRI members are asking for help from the National Electoral Institute . It's true, some PRI members who are part of the LÍDER group, led by José Encarnación Alfaro , are urging the party's president, Claudia Ruiz Massieu , to start organizing referendums to renovate the party's leadership . For this task, we've been told, they have asked Claudia Ruiz to request the INE to organize the voting process , that has to take place in August. But with what money ? The INE is going through an austere period.
