Luis Juez said that Karina Milei apologized and responded to Fat Dan after the attack on her daughter: "Don't offend me, that's not how you defend freedom."

"Don't offend me, what you're saying is horrible. This isn't how you defend freedom." With that phrase, Luis Juez responded Friday night to Fat Dan and the pro-government trolls, following the attacks and reprehensible messages on social media accusing him of using his disabled daughter to vote against Javier Milei's government. "I don't need anything from the President," he clarified.
" Karina apologized. She told me, 'We don't think that way,'" Juez revealed about the contact he had with the secretary general of the Presidency after the scandal erupted with the libertarian tweeter .
The senator from Córdoba said he isn't angry but asked not to be placed in a position he doesn't belong in. He then spoke about his 25-year-old daughter, Milagros, who has cerebral palsy: "She'll never have a disability pension. We can provide her with many benefits that others can't."
Speaking with TN, he explained that he can't remain silent because his goal is to bring visibility to a "completely invisible" issue. He denounced that politics of all stripes "destroys this issue and uses the pain of people with disabilities to make money."

He also stated that if he remained silent, "the hundreds of thousands would not have a single voice to make themselves heard." In that sense, he asserted that he is not seeking political gain, nor is he seeking to offend or destabilize the President.
Finally, he raised his tone to reject the insults against his family: he asked that they not offend him or his daughter because—he emphasized— "what they are saying is unfair."
Juez also referred to a contact he had with the Secretary General of the Presidency. "Karina wrote to me a little while ago. She said, 'We didn't think this was the case,'" the senator stated.
"I told her: 'Look, Karina, if there's one thing that made me fall in love with your brother, it was his empathy from day one with my daughter Milagros's situation. I don't understand this,'" Juez recalled.
And he gave the answer that the secretary had given him: "We don't think that way, we don't hold those ideas, I want you to know that and I want to apologize."

He also received a message from Gerardo Werthein . "The chancellor wrote to me and said, 'I apologize and I understand what you're going through,'" Juez said.
He also recalled that Milei took charge of initiating the process to bring in a CT scanner for people with cerebral palsy. "In 25 years of life, no President has paid any attention to me. And now a President, for the first time with empathy, showed solidarity and said, 'Let's see what we can do.'"
" On the issue of disability, I've spoken like a father. I can't be the target of insults. And the worst thing is that they're messing with my daughter; that's a limit I won't allow. If I kept my mouth shut, it was because I don't want some enemy of mine to use my pain to hurt the government," he continued.
In that sense, he sent a message to the ruling party and Milei's entourage.
" If you want to help the President, help him in another way . It's always important to say it: if you don't have a team or aren't prepared or trained, it's better to say no, because you can't learn from management. And that's happening in many areas of the State, and I've spoken about it several times with the President, because he has a unique opportunity. No one should be offended because someone thinks differently," he added.
And he concluded with a reference to Diego Spagnuolo, the former head of ANDIS: " If they had a guy with no experience in Disability, without the ability, authority, courage, determination, or balls to stand up to the corrupt in the area, it's not my fault, nor Milagros's, nor the fault of the disabled."
The scandal erupted on Thursday, after Judge overruled the presidential veto of the Disability Emergency declaration in the Senate session. In the early hours of the evening, Daniel Parisini posted a reprehensible message on social media.

Chief of Staff Guillermo Francos questioned him on television. He strongly disagreed with the pro-government Twitter user's message, who deleted the post and then reposted it in a softened tone. However, he and other trolls continued their campaign of criticism of the judge this Friday.
Before breaking his silence on television that evening, the PRO senator—allied with the government—spoke out on social media, where he shared a message from his son Martín. "They're doing everything they said they came to fight. If this is how those who decide to accompany us treat us, I can't imagine the rest. Know, guys, that the damage you're doing to the president is incalculable ."
