The last month has been one of the most adverse periods for the government of Javier Milei, which is trying to shield its Chief of Cabinet, Manuel Adorni, who is being investigated for illicit enrichment. According to the Argentine News Agency, the Executive Branch is debating the strategy to deploy to remove the judicial case from the agenda and the noise generated by doubts about the properties acquired and the official's travels. A sector of the libertarian ecosystem is inclined to show intense management activity and is working on an activity schedule with the intention of opening debates around the bill projects it seeks to promote this year in the National Congress. 'We have to generate noise from management. Promote pending issues that open the debate,' confessed an important source with access to the presidential office to this agency. The truth is that, among the battery of laws they plan to address in the short term, the Executive Branch aspires to discuss and vote on a political reform that will modify the democratic system and the way political parties are financed. During his recent appearances, he has not hesitated to support his official, whom he described as 'a wonderful Chief of Cabinet.' The economic team travels to the IMF Assembly and seeks to unblock the disbursement. This Monday, he is scheduled to appear with the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, one of her main defenders in the Cabinet, at an event to be held at the Malbrán Institute, and a few days later, on Thursday, they will appear again in Vaca Muerta. Almost at the end of the week, the political table will meet again on Friday at the Casa Rosada with the intention of intensifying management activity and accelerating the roadmap they will send to the Legislative Branch with the intention of beginning to shape 'the most reformist year in history,' as the libertarian promised. 'It is true that if we had the same reformist impetus of the first years of government, we would be talking less about the issue,' reflects a voice from the President's inner circle, while promising the reappearance of Adorni at a press conference that does not yet have a date. For this, the members of the small circle designated by Milei define the next legislative steps that the Congress will discuss in the coming days. In Balcarce 50, they define it as one of the 'largest and most comprehensive' reforms promoted. Likewise, they discount that a large portion of the opposition will submit the content to debate, which — they discount — could shift the axis of the controversy with Adorni. After failed attempts to regain control of the situation, in the ruling party they designated President Javier Milei in the role of spokesperson while his coordinating minister, of a recent low profile, concentrates on management activities. In addition, they are preparing to intensify the activity of management, which will include more frequent Cabinet meetings and new 'one-on-one' exchanges of the coordinating minister with ministers. 'The only way to hide an elephant is with more elephants,' they reasoned before this agency.
