Introduction

In recent times, there has been a surge of discussions surrounding family-based candidacies for governorships in states like Nuevo León and San Luis Potosí, with Ricardo Monreal, coordinator of Morena’s diputados, being one of the key figures advocating for these appointments. This article explores the political landscape, focusing on the role of intelligence and the implications of family-based candidacies within the context provided by José Antonio Marina.

Political Power and Public Funds

The struggle for political power and control over public funds for the direct allocation of projects and services to family members and friends has become a recurring issue within the partisan problems of the Fourth Transformation.

Legislative Session Challenges

As the year comes to a close without senators and diputados attending sessions, rumors circulate about an extraordinary session in 2026. However, the legislative agenda remains unprioritized, presenting an opportunity for Chief of Government Sheinbaum to assert her intelligence and prioritize essential matters over narrow interests from perredist groups embedded in Morena.

Taxation on Electronic Games and Cyberbullying

The proposed taxation on electronic games and the immediate ban due to difficulties in identifying cyberbullying lack creativity. Instead of imposing or prohibiting, there should be innovative publicity campaigns to highlight the negative impact of computer and mobile device usage on Mexican children.

Recent Political Rebellions

Current political rebellions trace back to recent times, with politically incorrect declarations in favor of hereditary positions in popularly elected offices. The Senate should prioritize over 70 ongoing lawsuits related to labor and civil disputes, rather than focusing on family-based candidacies.

Legislative Branch Concerns

In the lower chamber, diputados and diputadas are more focused on immediate future political gains, such as local congressional seats and mayoral positions. However, they have not been creating laws that enable citizens to navigate without fear, as their agenda includes increased restrictions, surveillance, and oversight.

Political Landscape and Alliances

With zero credibility, the PRI leader with protected status and finances attempts to chart a course for candidacies alongside individuals who would not fit within Morena. The Green Ecologist Party of Velazco will also play a significant role in the 2027 decision-making process, as alliances are being formed between Claudia Sheinbaum’s desires and radical factions within her party.

The Role of Gobernación

As the Secretariat of Gobernación fails to serve as a solution point and unity space, its titular is expected to leave in the upcoming January, along with other changes or reliefs within the legal and expanded cabinet.
