What did they live on?

Both the commotion raised by the publication of The King of Cash and the one unleashed by the so-called Gray House, which does not end up dying out, would have ended almost immediately with a simple explanation in each case: What did the president and his family live on? between 2005 and 2018? Wow, with a tax return, Elena Chávez’s book would lose impact, the same would happen with an irrefutable certificate from the state of Texas in the case of the property inhabited by the eldest son of the president and his family.

This has not been the case, therefore speculation prevails and they will persecute them for a long time, because the book will be followed by others, it is the history of the private life of the rulers in Mexico and in the world.

Elena Chávez fully complies with her promise to bear witness to what she saw and experienced during the time she was related to César Yáñez. His work is not a scientific study or a detailed investigation, he maintains it on several occasions and even Anabel Hernández’s prologue underlines it, it is a TESTIMONY, so claiming proof and evidence is not in his commitments to the readers, who buy it or those who have spent time on the electronic versions that have been circulating on all social networks.

There is in El rey del cash a series of revelations that not because they are known in the circles of power lose value, on the contrary, they give rise to trying to know more.

The president, the two issues mentioned at the beginning have permeated him, that of his son, he kept it for several weeks, day after day in his morning show he made references that if apparently the lady has money, that José Ramón is already 40 years old, that if Loret has many properties; Meanwhile, photos of his youngest son playing in the pool of the Houston house were spread, the juicy contracts between Pemex and Baker Hughes were revealed, the link between José Ramón and the children of Daniel Chávez, the businessman and friend of López Obrador.

The issue of his 200 pesos in his wallet has already been talked about. In a statement that does little to help the president, he says that he does not know about checks or credit cards, that his first wife and now his second wife gave him for expenses. How did you manage between Rocío’s death on January 12, 2003 and his marriage to Beatriz on October 16, 2006? More than two and a half years passed, a period in which he must have been on his own, especially because after leaving the head of government he no longer had any income.

There are in the book a series of revelations of the intimate relationship of the palace couple, but that corresponds to their private lives and, as in any marriage, it is up to them to face them.

Some defenders already reply that everyone steals and since they see Andrés Manuel as a kind of Robin Hood, they say that the money was for good purposes. But the unanswered question remains: what did Andrés Manuel López Obrador live on between 2005 and 2018?

on the sidelines

A harsh and well-deserved response was given by the Governor of Jalisco to the Secretary of the Interior, who goes around the states making unnecessary and offensive criticism, but what is truly worrying is the shield of impunity with which the presidency and its legislators overprotect the head of the Armed Forces. Armed. Attending appointments to the chambers is a constitutional obligation. Preventing them from appearing before popular and state representatives only confirms fears of making the military a separate state, and that is very dangerous for the republic.
