AMLO Tackles Justice, Drugs, and Trump in Morning Conference
Mexico's AMLO whips up progress report: judges exposed, drugs seized, healthcare reform steams ahead. He slams media critics, touts achievements, and promises a judicial shakeup via public vote.
The National Palace coffee machine was bubbling hot on this Tuesday morning, dispensing more than just caffeine. President López Obrador, affectionately known as AMLO, served up a potent blend of updates, pronouncements, and, of course, a dash of his signature fiery rhetoric.
From Zero Impunity to Heroin Hits: The morning began with a splash of justice, with authorities exposing judges allegedly favoring criminals in the Ayotzinapa case. This was followed by a security report showcasing the seizure of kilos of narcotics and the ongoing hunt for eight Colombian women. The air crackled with a sense of progress, even as the hunt for the perpetrators behind the tragic disappearance of community leaders in Colima remained a grim reminder of ongoing challenges.
