Argentina's government on Monday suspended the Telam state news agency in the wake of an announcement by President Javier Milei that he would shut down what he called a mouthpiece of "propaganda" for…
Desperation more or less, from what I understand. The old system was terrible and they figured it can't be much worse if they don't opt to continue it.
To paraphrase an Argentinian I spoke with on another thread: the poor people were already suffering so they voted for the current president so the rich would have to struggle too. The poor were gonna get it in the neck anyway so they may as well take the rich down with them.
Simply put, to cut down government spending. There is a sounder consensus that government spending was out of control, and it was reflected in the elections. Milei is doing nothing else than what he promised during campaign, maybe even falling short because congress is (rightfully) slowing him down.
Okay got it, the last government was bad and now they elected an even worse one with a guy in charge that looked so happy on his photo with the other cunt Trump, that he might needed a new pair of pants after that.
How is a news agency "nepotism"? Do you understand what that word means? Look for it, and remember, on the first day of mileis government, he changed a law to put his sister in the office too.
