Sources said that in recent days, the President’s legal adviser, Julio Scherer Ibarra, presented President Andrés Manuel López Obrador with a file detailing a series of irregularities perpetrated by Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong , which could be used to launch a legal process against the former Interior Minister. Insiders revealed President López Obrador rejected the proposal. According to the Mexican President, taking legal action against Osorio Chong could be counterproductive and create problems for the federal government.
Yesterday could mark the beginning of a series of video scandals. Sources reminded us that there is no such thing as forgiveness in politics and that one back in 2004, Andrés Manuel López Obrador said the one behind René Bejarano’s video was Diego Fernández de Cevallos . The video released yesterday will have an impact on the PAN and governor Francisco Domínguez. Is this a coincidence?
After the video was released, the Attorney General’s Office said it was not involved in the release of the scandalous video that shows two former Senate workers counting large amounts of cash, which was allegedly used to bribe senator to approve a series of reforms proposed by Enrique Peña Nieto . The video is allegedly linked to Emilio Lozoya , who accused the ex-president and Luis Videgaray of instructing him to used Odebrecht bribes to pay the advisers who worked in Peña Nieto’s presidential campaign in 2012 and also to bribe lawmakers and senators. The Attorney General’s Office immediately said the leaked video is not part of the evidence provided by Lozoya. So who is leaking the videos?
The IMSS argues it never violated a Guatemalan patient’s privacy after the health institute released a video telling his story and the way Mexican doctors treated him for COVID-19. The health institute said the patient signed a permit and that he not only agreed to tell his story but that he is also very thankful to Mexico and the IMSS.
