…and the official apparatus came out to defend Adán Augusto

Perhaps it took him a while because he was stunned.

On Sunday, he expressed himself with shouts of "You are not alone!" in the style of the Morena deputies in the Chamber of Deputies in support of Cuauhtémoc Blanco .

But yesterday, the official apparatus finally appeared in full force in defense of its current coordinator in the Senate of the Republic.

This put an end to the speculation that began the previous week.

He was at the National Palace on Monday, and on Thursday, reporters following Claudia Sheinbaum 's activities saw Adán Augusto López as he left the building.

The rumor immediately spread:

-He's going to be removed. He'll request leave and be sent to Paris to fulfill one of his childhood dreams: to return to France as Mexico's ambassador.

The next question was whether he would attend the National Council of the movement and if, if present, he would make statements about his relationship with the fugitive former Secretary of Security and Citizen Protection of Tabasco, Hernán Bermúdez Requena .

THE STRATEGY

While the versions were being circulated, the strategy was being refined.

The movement nominally led by Luisa María Alcalde was making progress in preparations for the event scheduled for Sunday.

Criteria were unified, as seen yesterday.

And yesterday many spoke.

Adán Augusto López himself, who, after being ratified, promised to remain at the head of the Morena party and its affiliates, the PT and the Greens, until 2030.

Because there is nothing against him, according to the President:

"No one is covered up here. If the Prosecutor's Office has any evidence against someone, whether they're a Morena member or not, let them go ahead and continue the investigation..."

The leader Luisa María Alcalde joined the chorus and the unknown Carlos Manuel Merino spoke as an additional speaker, who, in the style of Carlos Salinas, neither saw nor heard nor knew what his subordinate did when he was governor of Tabasco.

Many statements and no reference to Andrés Manuel López Obrador 's public support for Bermúdez Requena when the accusations were multiplying, which now support the arrest warrant and the reason for his fugitive.

MORE FEARS

1.- Something is perceived in Culiacán.

The presence of the Security Cabinet, and especially Secretary Omar García Harfuch, on Sunday is a prelude to further developments.

Hopefully they will be good, because there is fear of an increase in the wave of violence—more?—as next Friday marks the anniversary of Ismael Zambada and Joaquín Guzmán López's transfer to the United States.

And 2. Ricardo Salinas Pliego and his consortium are after the remainder. Their statement, which once again denounces double taxation, says:

"Be clear: at Grupo Salinas, we will continue to defend the truth and will not give in to tax extortion and political persecution. We will not remain silent: we will be here for many more years!"

His bet is on the new justice system, as the current one will leave office in August, and Minister Javier Laynez has ruled out the possibility of resolving the businessman's pending issues.

Salinas Group insists:

"In a country where the law and the rule of law no longer apply, the government has institutionalized political persecution at the highest levels with the clear mandate to silence and punish those who think differently."
