It is not really known who signed and sent the Anonymous complaint which led to the investigation against him former minister president of the Supreme Court, Arturo Zaldivar, can have many origins. A person who claims to be an intern appeared on the networks. right who claims to have presented it and who says he is linked to Mexicans against Corruption. It may be, but no one has confirmed it. There are many versions about other alleged beneficiaries.
But that is not the only question we must ask ourselves. The other is who disclosed the investigation that was ordered, they tell me, ex officio. It was not a decision of the Minister Pineapple disclose it and nor was the decision to initiate it intended to disclose it. These types of documents pass through many hands in the offices of justice and any of them could have been disclosed or leaked. It came to me through the defender of one of the people who were prosecuted in this six-year term, but I don't know if that is the real origin.
The accusations that are done in the complaint that is put to investigation, are not evidence-based, as we have said all week. It is a narrative, which is also not proven, that has been being used for months, and paradoxically more from the hard-line sectors of Morena than from the opposition. I cannot imagine that there are judges who are going to declare that they were promoted to magistrates because they accepted pressure or that others say that they made judicial decisions because someone came to see them. I don't know if there is any crime in which the president of the Court consults a case with a judge, I imagine not. Much less does the legal advisor, previous or current, meet with the president of the Court to see how a matter is going. In fact, that is part of his responsibilities. It is as normal as lawyers doing it to deal with his cases.
What can be prosecuted about these complaints? From my point of view almost nothing. We'll see what Minister José Luis González Alcántara decides, but I don't see that the anonymous complaint has a future and neither does the request for impeachment against Minister President Norma Piña: what can they accuse her of? to give channel to an anonymous complaint? It has happened to hundreds, no exaggeration, of them. There is also no evidence that the minister has leaked that information. Yesterday President López Obrador himself recognized it, in the middle of the long verbal barrage that he had in the morning. Whether anonymous complaints lead to successful investigations is another matter, and in this case it is very difficult because they are not based on evidence.
Another subject. It has been said that in the meetings of the judicialization councils, where officials from the Court, the ministry, security, military, and the prosecutor's office participated, the line of work of the most controversial cases of this administration was defined. I can't know if that ever, in any case, happened. But I do know, we have written a lot in this space about it, that those councils or judicialization tables were something else and served other objectives.
Part of the deterioration suffered in recent years is that those councils or tables that brought together officials from all those areas, but also governors and security officials from each state separately, were canceled and with them objectives and joint operations were designed, lines of action against different criminal areas in each entity. They worked effectively and were even useful for committing different agencies to clear objectives.
That was not an invention of this administration. These tables have been operating in one way or another since the Calderón government. He put them into practice, if I remember correctly, for the first time, in Nuevo León and Tamaulipas when the security situation in those states was worst, Jorge Tello Peón, and not only officials participated but also on many occasions representatives of civil society , especially businessmen. They were also done at the federal level. Over time they took different forms, but the concept is the same. Today, in most states and in Mexico City, security coordination tables with the same characteristics operated and operate.
Everything else is to construct a political narrative that may be interesting and even plausible, but that does not have much support with reality.
Banks and economy
They say that today many bankers are going to say a festive farewell to President López Obrador when he closes what will be his last Banking convention in Acapulco. They say that some banks have rarely had as many benefits as in this administration. Could be.
What is a fact is that from within the National Palace an attempt was made, without any basis, to implement a financial raid against Banco Azteca that would have affected the entire national financial system. That this campaign lasted weeks and about 12 million pesos a week were invested in it to make it fly on networks and ended when a lawsuit for financial terrorism was filed against those responsible.
We will also see how a central issue is dealt with tomorrow. The economy is on pins and needles, as in 1994. The fiscal deficit amounts to 5.2 percent of GDP. It is impossible, as they say, to return it to zero in 2025 and promises that are impossible to keep are still being made. If Claudia arrives, perhaps the good news, so as not to repeat December 94, is that Rogelio Ramírez de la O will stay, who knows where those pins are placed. If Xóchitl remains, his economic team will have to work miracles.
