Monreal wants to take over social media
As soon as President Andrés Manuel López Obrador finished presenting his economic program to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic , Morena’s leader in the Senate, Ricardo Monreal shared a video on social media , where he described the President’s plan as “convincing.”We’ve been told that the message was shared so quickly that perhaps Monreal knew all about the plan. If that wasn’t the case, he recorded it without knowing if it was convincing or not. Others think Monreal was so quick as part of a strategy to position himself on social media, now that other two politicians are seen as possible presidential candidates , Claudia Sheinbaum and Marcelo Ebrard , have been quite active on social media and have received a lot of attention amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The President ignores Morena
It seems like President López Obrador didn’t listen to his own party, Morena , while presenting his new economic program. We’ve been told that Morena hoped the President would announce a countercyclical economic plan , the temporary suspension of employer-employee fees for three months, and new funding lines ; however, it seems like the President didn’t listen to his political party . We’ve been told this is proof that who won the election was López Obrador and that Morena simply accompanied him.

Morena wants a budget cut at the INE
And talking about Morena , it was recently pushed to cut the funding for political parties , knowing that it will still have twice as much money as its opposers. Yesterday, Morena presented a proposal to cut 60% of the resources for local and national political parties, as well as a petition for the INE to cut its resources during 2020. Nevertheless, the ruling party took advantage of the fact that the Electoral Tribunal didn’t allow them to cut 75% of its funding. Now, Alfonso Ramírez Cuéllar , Morena’s interim president, issue a new petition at the INE, with the support of the party’s committee to ask a 50% budget cut .

What happened to using fingerprints at banks?
We’ve been told that the INAI itself doesn’t know what happened to the measure that forced banks to register the fingerprints of all its clients but it seems like it wasn’t implemented amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Some claim users no longer want to use electronic devices because they fear contracting COVID-19 and that many of them are using gloves in ATMs. However, it’s clear that the National Banking and Securities Commission must adjust all these policies now that people are afraid of touching devices. Alarmists say users could even sue banks for using an access mechanism that could spread coronavirus. Nobody thought that besides data protection, banks should have included a measure to protect the health of its users.
