Finally, the trial for the so-called 'notebooks' corruption case has begun. It is the largest corruption trial in history. Perhaps the most notable aspect was the brutal campaign to discredit the evidence. Kirchnerists constantly attacked the validity of the notebooks, and many businessmen did the same, all seeking to delay the start of the trial. The trial will take a long time and will be conducted entirely remotely. Kirchnerism was a criminal organization, and this trial will prove it. There are 87 accused individuals, and the list is diverse. It includes a driver for officials who, in notebooks, recorded all his trips carrying bribes during the Kirchner government, which originated from businessmen paying to obtain public works contracts. The notebooks fell into the hands of journalist Diego Cabot, who was the main force behind the complaint. When in power, Kirchnerism built many corruption machines. There were moments when it seemed the accused would manage to overturn the case. The Kirchnerists used all possible dirty tricks through the media and politics to discredit the notebooks. We all know everything about Kirchnerist corruption, and this trial will show, in detail, the corrupt mechanism. Separately, the discussion continued about deputies who switched their party bloc. The sentences will take a long time, but the key was that the trial started. The 'notebooks' case shows this corrupt structure. It's hard to maintain hope in the political system when republicans behave the same as populists. There was a corruption machine that operated permanently, showing that, in essence, Kirchnerism was an illicit association. Julio De Vido, Roberto Barata, and Cristina Kirchner are the most well-known, but the list of accused is enormous. There were also many attempts to delay the case. Being elected by one party and then switching to another is defrauding the voter. There was an organized structure for bribes. Those who didn't pay had no chance of working on public works. It's a pity that the justice system decided it would not be in-person. It doesn't matter if they do it out of conviction or for political gain, it is always wrong. When politics degrades to the point where even those in the republican field believe they can transgress ethical norms, it signifies a marked decline. The ruling party has filled Congress with unqualified people, and many legislators, who are supposed to have political standing, mock the citizens who voted for them from one party and then jump to another, explaining it as a good thing. Disrespecting the will of the voters is nothing good. The case began in 2018 and since then, everything has happened. They were so successful that people from the republican sector have tremendous moral flexibility and believe that mocking popular will is acceptable. There is information that the Supreme Court disagrees with the scheme of holding sessions only once a week and without in-person attendance. It is to be hoped that this will be reversed because, with the current methodology, convictions would not come for at least another three years. Continuing to delay is the goal of the accused. The trial is important due to the number of accused, but fundamentally, because the notebooks explain an organized structure for criminal activity. Journalist Osvaldo Bazán has been discussing the issue, and his explanations hit the nail on the head. Fixing the economy is important, and regenerating the political system is essential for the country to be considered in the world. The greatest damage done by Kirchnerism was to create a country without ethical norms. There were repentant businessmen and threats to prosecutor Stornelli. They were not isolated incidents.
