Lilita Carrió's scathing criticism of the provincial government's construction: "To have Karina Milei as my boss, I'd kill myself in Mar Chiquita."

It's always spicy, but on Wednesday night, Elisa Carrió was even more so when she referred to the government and its political organization. "Lilita" also criticized Karina Milei and the Macri faction , with whom the ruling party is working on a joint electoral organization in view of the provincial and national midterm elections in the province. "I ask Mauricio Macri, are we going to subordinate ourselves to the strategy of a girl who bakes cakes, talks to dogs, and reads tarot cards?" she asked rhetorically.
It was in a television interview given by Carrió on Wednesday night, on the occasion of the conclusion of the Vialidad case , initiated by the leader of the Civic Coalition (CC-ARI) in 2008 and concluded this Tuesday by the Supreme Court, which upheld Cristina Kirchner's sentence of six years in prison and a lifelong ban from holding public office. While she showed compassion for the former president, she aimed all her rhetorical cannons at the ruling party and the Macri administration.
" The government wants obsequiousness or it wants nothing . It attacks independent journalism, serious journalism, and it doesn't care about Kirchnerist criticism. It cares about journalism," the former congresswoman stated resolutely in an interview with LN+ . She had been stating for minutes that, in her opinion, Javier Milei's government is bordering on "the darkness of the republic" because it "disregards the law and defies it."
However, he switched gears when he linked the government's political practice with the electoral setup of the ruling party and the Macri administration for the provincial (September) and national (October) midterm elections in the largest electoral district, the province of Buenos Aires. "Journalism doesn't depend on votes... votes... This guy (for Santiago Caputo), with his sect of tarot readers, and this woman..." he lashed out, with a hint of incognito.
"The truth is, I wasn't born to have Karina Milei as my boss , because I would have committed suicide in Mar Chiquita before. As I said before, regarding Alberto Fernández, I would have done it in San Clemente del Tuyú... I asked Mauricio Macri that," Carrió continued, speaking with journalist Joaquín Morales Solá.
And the onslaught continued: "How are we going to end it? With a girl who bakes cakes, who talks to dogs, who reads tarot cards for every journalist or every person who comes to see her... And that's how she sets up the game."
"He doesn't talk to journalists," Morales Solá complained.
"Well, he talks to the dogs. I don't know who he's talking to. And I have to submit to the strategy of this woman, who says she's forming a national party. The question for Argentines is: Why do we always elect people whose parents abused them and now they've become abusers? Why is it that the one who swears the most is the one who has the most reputation? I heard José Luis Espert speak to him today. "These voices are cesspools," he replied.
The reference was to Representative Espert's (LLA, Province) insults toward Florencia Kirchner, the former president's daughter, on Wednesday morning during a political communications conference at the Catholic University of Argentina (UCA). The representative later repudiated the remarks. "How could you not be bitter, if you're the daughter of a big whore?" Espert recalled tweeting more than a decade ago this Wednesday at the UCA.
However, Carrió expressed a different sentiment in the interview regarding Cristina Kirchner's conviction, despite having been the one who initiated the 2008 investigation into corruption in public works in the province of Santa Cruz, better known as the Vialidad Case. "The conviction doesn't diminish my compassion for her and her family. I don't think she wanted to end up like this. I'm thinking about her children and that we must respect the moment. Cristina hasn't fallen, let her. She hasn't fallen yet. I'm not happy," she stated.
"Just because there was justice in the Supreme Court doesn't mean there is a republic in Argentina. We are falling into democratic darkness. Javier Milei didn't want Cristina Kirchner's conviction to be handed down, because he knows the same thing could happen to her in the Libra case or the scandalous corruption at PAMI, in all the provinces," he had maintained minutes earlier.
