Although Spain defeated Argentina in the Basketball World Cup, our squad’s performance was absolutely brilliant. There’s so much to learn from these players, their discipline, their commitment, their passion. We should listen to star Luis Scola’s advice and apply it to our everyday life. There’s no magic here, he says. Simply Seguir leyendo
Después de las PASO, reina el caos en nuestro vapuleado país. Esa es mi sensación. Violencia, agresión, enfrentamientos, intolerancia, incapacidad de diálogo, de intentar acuerdos. Todos contra todos. Piquetes, acampes, paros sorpresivos de transporte público, amenazas, extorsiones, un clima irrespirable que mete miedo. Entiendo que los reclamos en su mayoría Seguir leyendo
“Chamber of Deputies approves emergency food bill”. Poverty, hunger and malnutrition in Argentina are the blatant proofs of the utter failure of the administrations that have governed our country for decades. On the one hand, they say that we could feed 400 million people. On the other, the plain truth is Seguir leyendo
“Chile is not Cuba thanks to Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship”, said Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, thus praising Chile’s 1973 military coup d’état. He never ceases to shock us. Alongside, he attacked Michelle Bachelet: «Among the communists during that era was her brigadier father”, he said. Some reminders. The socialist government of Salvador Allende was overthrown Seguir leyendo
Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro said he will only accept $20 million anti-fire funds from the G7 if Macron withdraws «insults.” He’s not talking about his back yard, mind you, but about an unheard of environmental catastrophe that will affect the whole planet. He also implied that the French President envied Seguir leyendo
Creo que el candidato de Cristina, Alberto Fernández, se está perdiendo una oportunidad histórica. No me refiero al resultado de las elecciones de octubre (no soy pitonisa), sino a la posibilidad de convertirse en un hombre que logre pacificarnos, calmar los ánimos y zanjar la grieta cada vez más profunda Seguir leyendo
Is it a joke? Does Donald Trump really want to buy Greenland from Denmark? Who does he think he is? The answer is clear. “I am the chosen one”, he stated in an interview with White House reporters. A song comes to mind: “Megalomaniac”. “Hey megalomaniac/You’re no Jesus/Yeah, you’re no fucking Elvis/Special, Seguir leyendo
When I heard Alberto Fernández say it didn’t make sense to meet the current President after the PASO, I felt so upset. As upset as when an angry President Macri “scolded” the people who didn’t vote for “Cambiemos” last Sunday. Fortunately, both retrieved their steps. Fernández finally got in touch Seguir leyendo
Lo voté a Macri hace 4 años y el domingo, a pesar de mi profunda decepción. Pero en el fondo siempre supe que estas PASO le iban a dar un merecido sopapo al gobierno. Porque la gente, el pueblo en su inmensa mayoría, está muy mal. Y poco le importa Seguir leyendo
It’s almost inevitable to link the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas (Aug 3) with the racism US President has always tolerated and even promoted. Trump has described Mexican immigrants as “invaders”, “criminals”, “gang members”, “rapists”. His language is offensive, prejudiced, bigoted. There’s a saying in Spanish: “El pescado se pudre Seguir leyendo
