The Race for Presidential Candidacy
It is a fact that the competition for the presidential candidacy begins with the assumption of office by the Heads of the Executive and, except for the panistas, who were left without glue, all the rest, without exception, exercised the presidential privilege of choosing who would succeed them, and the Republic knew it.

Raquel Buenrostro and Corruption Allegations
To avoid investigating the network of political, government official, and business complicity that the Jalisco New Generation Cartel built for million-dollar diesel and gasoline smuggling into Mexico, the Anti-Corruption Secretary, Raquel Buenrostro, offered a smokescreen.
In her morning statement, she spoke extensively about corruption in the INAI and the corruption that existed in the now-defunct National Disaster Fund when the “revolution of consciences” came to power. She did not mention the flourishing contraband of fuel to Mexico that began during former President López Obrador’s term, causing losses to the nation and Pemex that the government likely already knows but won’t disclose.

This agitation, tolerated by Palacio Nacional, allows the social crime of canceling the possibility of social mobility for thousands of students to be committed, erasing their future.
