Presidential Outburst: Milei Defends Musk Amid Criticism

National Deputy Maximiliano Ferraro, from the Civic Coalition - CABA, harshly criticized the President of the Nation, Javier Milei, for his recent comments defending Elon Musk. Ferraro expressed his discontent through social media, emphasizing the lack of response from former interblock colleagues regarding Milei's words. Ferraro pointed out that the deafening silence in the face of the president's remarks also extends to other issues, such as the Necessity and Urgency Decrees issued, the constant attacks on journalists, and the restriction of access to information, among other aspects he considers concerning for the country's institutions. In his post, the deputy referred to this behavior as a 'republican deafness,' highlighting Milei's action to silence those who do not share his ideas and leave mute those who were previously considered republican and semi-loyal democrats. Ferraro questioned whether his political colleagues would choose silence or be irresponsible accomplices of the violence and institutional degradation he perceives today.
