POLITICÓN: Fuentevilla case escalates, criminal charges are being filed for assaulting and threatening a journalist.

I. IT WON'T BE THAT BAD

After taking a look at the results, municipality by municipality, from last Sunday's PAN election, the question remains as to whether the internal division that Elisa Maldonado 's detractors are claiming truly exists. While it's true that the proportion of spoiled votes reached 8 percent of the total, it's also true that, except for those in Acuña and Frontera, none of the other polling stations set up in the state had even 10 spoiled ballots. And in nine of those cases, none were recorded. Maldonado's detractors would have had better arguments if they had mobilized their supporters and flooded the polls with spoiled votes...

II. HEALING WOUNDS

Of course, according to those in the know, it's likely that the Electoral Processes Commission of the PAN's National Executive Committee will issue a declaration of validity today, and in two or three weeks, the new state leadership will be sworn in. Taking into account the data indicated, this would have to begin the "healing operation" toward the restructuring that the regional PAN requires, and which almost all internal voices are talking about, although they haven't gotten around to it.

III. DIRECT TO CDMX

After years of waiting, Ramos Arizpe International Airport will resume commercial flights to Mexico City . The news, which has been enthusiastically received by the region's business sector, represents a significant advance in terms of competitiveness , according to the mayor of Saltillo, Javier Díaz González . Those familiar with the matter tell us that this achievement will not only benefit the Southeast Region, but also the Central and Carbonífera regions, whose residents will be able to travel to Saltillo to fly directly to the nation's capital, thus avoiding the time-consuming and resource-intensive trip to Monterrey.

IV. MANAGEMENT WITH WINGS

This important achievement for air mobility in the region, we are told, was made possible through the efforts made directly by Governor Manolo Jiménez Salinas with the aviation companies . According to sources close to the negotiations, the arrival of Viva Aerobús is only the first step in a broader plan that seeks to incorporate new destinations and possibly other airlines in the medium term.

V. EVEN IN THE NATIONAL PALACE

As expected, the scandal involving Eduardo Fuentevilla Cabello , a Federal Judicial Branch official, at an alcohol checkpoint in Saltillo reached La Mañanera. President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo was questioned on the issue and, without hesitation, called for sanctions against the arrogant public servant who threatened and assaulted police officers and a VANGUARDIA reporter. "Let sanctions be imposed; it's not up to me, but let them be investigated, and if he must be sanctioned, let them be sanctioned," the federal leader stated. Political observers tell us that the forceful response should have only one effect: his dismissal.

VI. COMPLAINT

Furthermore, the case continues to escalate formally. The Special Prosecutor's Office for Crimes Committed Against Journalists received the complaint against Eduardo Fuentevilla Cabello yesterday. The evidence is overwhelming, as there are multiple videos documenting threats and attacks against the VANGUARDIA journalist. Legal experts indicate that the official could also face charges for threats, intimidation, and obstruction of journalistic work.

IX. ANOTHER THING

In echoes of what happened on Monday at the Legislative Palace in Coss, where Mayor Román Cepeda and Congressman Antonio Attolini finally met face to face, we are told that, contrary to what might be expected, given his usual behavior −and the fact that he was the one who submitted the request for the mayor to appear−, the Morena member did not seem interested in intervening in the session, which took place behind closed doors . His colleague Olivia Martínez had to "encourage" him. so that he could finally ask a couple of questions, with great propriety and respect... very far from the methods he has used in recent months.
