AMLO stole our future

As an opposition candidate, Andrés Manuel López Obrador was the best that the Mexican-style system could find. Clear, critical, and even purposeful, pointing out what he would do — and that he would do it better — when he came to power.

As President of the Republic, he is and has been a complete failure.

He betrayed his promises and commitments. He betrayed Mexico. He betrayed himself.

It’s already leaving. Fortunately, there is no harm in lasting a six-year term.

In less than two months, at dawn on September 31, he will formally leave power… although it is assumed that he will continue to exercise it from his farm in Palenque.

It leaves a territory empty of future.

A cursed inheritance that the country will take several six-year terms to conjure if her successor Claudia Sheinbaum manages to wean her political progenitor.

Meanwhile, the snipers of power, knowing that a change of government, political forms and system is coming, remain waiting for a bone they can gnaw.‎

What they don’t notice is that for there to be broth there must be chicken, and this is conspicuous by its absence. The reality is that there is nothing yet. Everything must be done, rebuilt, restored, imagined, risen from a long fateful and predatory night that the 4T brought to Mexico.

And AMLO leaves a disaster in the hands of his favorite drug traffickers and their accomplices. They are the ones in charge. He spoils them and embraces them. The most he goes to is to sympathize with the violence they exert on the defenseless population, as happened a few days ago in La Concordia, Chiapas. “I don’t like it,” he said, as if it were about taste and not about action against the generators of violence, dispossession, and deaths.

He did not exercise power. This one surpassed it. So much so that he looked for him and fought him that he ended up dwarfed in front of him.

Therefore, power will have to be built based on determination, example, conduct, skill, operation, knowledge, experience, and prudence, because nothing is being inherited.

Because simply and simply, there is nothing.

Can Claudia Sheinbaum, do it?

If he manages to wean himself, he may succeed.

And that she will go down in History not because of a mere question of gender — the first female President — ​​but because she rebuilt and saved the country from the harmful effects of the 4T.

National security handed over to the Empire

You cannot fall any lower nor can you talk about failure when you are barely seeing what is left.

We cannot talk about mistakes before assuming command because there never was such a command; what ended up was a government in ruins, in the hands and at the disposal of organized crime and their counterparts in the Armed Forces. A little government that massacred its people.

The narco-state, which is what exists, was emptied and left to drag away. The only thing there is are postponed problems, urgent needs, war crimes against the population itself, hunger, misery, rampant unemployment, extortion, blackmail, bribery, and hopelessness.‎ A territory was left empty of future, I repeat.

What there is is an economy dried up by waste, theft from the budget and the theft of collective assets. Monetary reserves committed to the fate of the dollar, not development; absence of government programs — the Cuatroteros never knew what it means to govern –, blind man’s caning, impertinence of peddlers who only see loot in the treasury.

What there is a national security handed over to the Empire, a public security with places sold to drug traffickers throughout the Republic, money dedicated to burning the incense burners in favor of the cult of the exalted but outcast Morenistas, a river of money wasted on works which only served to magnify his clumsiness.

What is left is a nerdy and discredited Executive, a Legislative Branch that in six years acted without agenda or substance and without taking a single comma away from the whims of the little dictator, a Judicial Branch harassed by determining that those abuses by deputies and senators have been unconstitutional. by Morena. State and municipal governments in debt and looted by their leaders and their shameful congresses and councils.

Opposition: subsidized shells

The only thing there is an Army and Navy recognized abroad for their high lethality against the innocent and for being caravans and safeguards for the personal security of the most bloodthirsty bosses. Furthermore, the Armed Forces are committed to the core in the shady businesses of those who are leaving. Projects and oil fields auctioned.

What there is is a failed administration of justice by an autonomous Prosecutor’s Office that cries out for the interventions of truth and historical memory commissions that can appeal to international courts and tribunals that can and should judge what happened here.

There remain political parties, family franchises of compromise, shells subsidized by the budget, lacking effective votes and ideas of progress, union leaders and peasants brutally enriched by the State, converted into its natural enemies.

What there is are the middle classes in the whirlwind of criticism at palace matinees and in the spirals of misinformation and civic apathy, dry grass for any call for brainless people and any impertinent cacerolazo. Catholic cardinals and pastors of the flock accused in all shades of pedophiles and influence peddlers, pending justice.

What we have is paralyzed production, primary activities destroyed due to lack of credit and guarantees. The industrial and manufacturing secondary sectors, discouraged by tax regressions in favor of the tertiary, consumerism, and services sectors, rewarded with multimillion-dollar tax refunds, charged to our contributions.

Education, in the hands of those who seek to ideologize children and young people, preparing them for the final blow: Socialism of the 21st Century… Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela style . The abandoned field and fishing. Cooperatives and associations of producers absolutely ignored and uncovered.

Opium dream. Carnival of corruption

What remained: corrupt authorities of all levels and genders, along with their children and other relatives, hidden under the skirts of shrapnel, strictly dedicated to plunder and pageantry. Judged in advance by every Mexican with half a brain and dignity.

All the mercenaries of power willing to be pitied in foreign courts.

Already to ask for forgiveness and implore the protection of the gyrfalcons of foreign countries.

Political power? Social bases? Armed forces? National security? Productive activities? And what do you eat that with? Where was he that no one saw him? Let’s not fool ourselves: nothing exists. Just a claque that thinks they’ve done well. Everything else will have to be redone, reconstructed, restored, imagined.

It was all an opium dream.‎ A carnival of corruption at a rhythm of surrender, sweetened with wind music from the media and legends of “brave honesty”, “the poor first” and other nonsense.

The Fourth Transformation is an absolute failure that has left no stone unturned.

Indications

He calls himself non-interference… only when it suits him. When the Central and South American dictators receive condemnation from the international community, he is against it. A week ago, he was pleased that the elections in Venezuela had taken place calmly. Today, when the Bolivarian regime of Nicolás Maduro imprisons, wounds and murders those who have demonstrated against electoral fraud, López Obrador remains silent. * * * And that’s all for today.
