Ministers, lower your salaries or we will
In both Congress and in the Supreme Court , the official version was that ministers and deputies had a friendly meeting. Some think that the description is not very precise, because they were civil but some unfriendly expressions also took place. We've been told that during the breakfast between Morena deputies and ministers , Mario Delgado and Pablo Gómez increased the pressure in the debate in regards to the salaries of the Judicial branch , by using a phrase that wasn't praised by the ministers: “Lower your salaries or we will.”
AMLO, keeping an eye over the Infonavit
We've been told that President Andrés Manuel López Obrador will have to keep an eye over the Infonavit to find possible conflicts of interests and potential corruption practices that prevent him from fulfilling his promise of “sweep corruption from the top to the bottom.” We've been told that during the recent transition at the institute, the future general director, Carlos Martínez Velázquez , was accompanied by Eduardo Guerrero , one of Softtek 's executives, an Information Technology company that has signed contracts worth millions through direct adjudication from the Infonavit. Who knows what the President will think about an executive from a company that had agreements with Peña Nieto's administration is now close to the possible future Infonavit director; it would be pretty complicated that new contracts are denied to Softtek.
Serrano's absence
We've been told that the discussion about the Attorney General in Congress divided the PRD . Although some proposed abstention, the Nueva Izquierda group, also known as Los Chuchos decided to vote against the proposal. What drew attention was the Héctor Serrano was asking the PRD to abstain, the same one that quite the PRD weeks ago but remained in the PRD fraction , and when the time to vote came, he was absent and didn't cast his vote. A coincidence?
Pérez Dayán's achievements
Those who have criticized minister Alberto Pérez Dayán after he suspended the implementation of the Remunerations Law , which prevents any public servant from earning more than the President , should at least acknowledge one of his merits, being a judge that follows his convictions . We've been told that Alberto Pérez was the only court official that opposed the impeachment of the now President . The judges' reality: they're both heroes and villains.
