Some Governmental Political Chatter for Those Who Choose to Know the Inner Workings

Yesterday, Mayor Irma, pictured above, showed up at the Premios Juventud. She was doing what she loves: box office! Irma looked very clear and clean. It’s a shame the same can’t be said for San Miguelito. That, after the deadline established in the PRD’s electoral calendar, no new resignations were submitted to the National Executive Committee (CEN), and everything indicates that the group will continue to be controlled by the same figures who have it under control. A joker claims that Taylor Swift from “Sal de las Redes” and Professor Argote are really proposing a “hungry” plan: they are against the mine, the Río Indio reservoir, Puerto Barú, the train, and any project that generates income and development. Following the violent incident in the Assembly, where he clashed with an influencer from his circle, the PTJ deputy from Vamos is keeping his offices closed in Dolega. Anyone who’s afraid… can buy a dog.

The way Commander Aureliano Petro delivered his speech at the UN was very reminiscent of the one Muammar Gaddafi committed in September 2009. They say that speech was the death knell for the then ruler of Libya. Petro used the pseudonym of Aureliano, a character in the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. During his time in M-19, Petro emerged as a leader; he was elected ombudsman of Zipaquirá in 1981 and councilman from 1984 to 1986. In 1985, the M-19 assassinated 13 Colombian politicians at the Palace of Justice.
That Fulo Linares is throwing out facts: he says the price of copper is skyrocketing, while here we continue with the mine closed and double-digit unemployment. That Roly and other PRD politicians are the ones driving the process to recall the mayor of Arraiján. Besides not doing a damn thing for the district, they’re sore losers. A football fan might wonder: What’s the big deal about a young Panamanian, Kadir Barría, making his debut with Botafogo in the Brasileirao, the Top 6 league in world football, and no one in the federation knew him? Does Fepafut not keep track of talent or something?
That Juan Carlos Planells followed in his sister Anette’s footsteps and jumped ship at the 12 de Octubre newspaper. He left management to devote himself to his professional activities. Well, that’s what they say. We’re told there’s an elderly official at the Ministry of Labor with a “nerdy” attitude: she doesn’t know anything about conciliation, but she does know about harassment and bullying, with the director’s approval. Be careful, Madam Minister: the fire is already burning. Yesterday, the president underwent successful surgery for his shoulder problem. Expecting a speedy recovery. The representative who gives away Vamos panties is now behind an initiative seeking to establish ecocide as a crime in Panama. Look! What if we elevate “panticide” to the category of crime?
