Libertarian Congresswoman Lourdes Arrieta, who gained notoriety for claiming she did not know who the people she visited with a group of fellow lawmakers at the Ezeiza penitentiary because she had been born in 1993, keeps undermining whichever unity President Javier Milei's Parliamentarians might have left by denouncing House Speaker Martín Menem for allegedly labeling the female deputies of his bloc as ”whores.

Arrieta and other legislators visited well-known military or paramilitary people serving lengthy prison terms for crimes against humanity committed during the 1976-1983 dictatorship, and who are said to have financed Vice President Victoria Villarruel's political campaigns in the hope that they would be granted a presidential pardon or their sentences commuted to house arrest given their ages.

In this scenario, Arrieta and fellow Libertarian Congresswomen Rocío Bonacci and Marcela Pagano might be expelled from the party's bloc anytime soon, it was reported in Buenos Aires.



Seems political in-party fighting happens everywhere.

He went for austerity, refusing to learn from the recent disasters in Britain and France and other austerity governments that have abjectly failed.
