Which is what's so absurd about all this: Milei and his narco-party are doomed already!
Besides the rotten economy and his sister's corruption, they've got two verified narco-congresscritters: José Luis Espert - the (just ousted) Chairman of the House Budget Committee (!);
and Lorena Villaverde - who was deported from the U.S. in 2003 after being caught delivering 15 kilos of cocaine in Flawrida (of course).
In other words, she was a drug mule - and she's the LLA candidate for Senator in one of Patagonian provinces.
And the coalition's "more professional" junior partners? (Trump pal Macri's PRO - a neo-con favorite):
Their former mayor of Paraná (Argentina's 18th largest city), Sergio Varisco, was convicted as mayor of drug trafficking - and they still nominated him for re-election in 2019 (he lost, and then died - conveniently for Macri).
At least 40 known drug money-laundering accounts were opened during Macri's calamitous 2015-19 rule by the notorious "Monos" gang - which was colluding with Macri's boozing Security Minister (and CIA favorite) Patricia Bullrich to try to frame a governor who had turned against them.
She then received a US$215 million campaign contribution (illegally, and more than all other parties combined) from a known narco-front - funded by the same one who bankrolled Espert!
Bullrich now has the same post under Milei.
You have to remember that, while in Mexico or Colombia all this might be business as usual - they're shocking news in Argentina.
But then - when Milei claimed to be an "anarcho-capitalist," he clearly meant narco-capitalist.
