Argentina more Corrupt with Milei - In Milei's second year, Argentina worsened its rating in the world ranking that measures corruption

Holy crap! 1,000 tweets in one day?
It's no wonder Milei wanted the money laundering law. Blown away that Adorni only makes like $2500 bucks a month before this raise. Why in the world would he spend like a drunken sailor and who needs all of these properties if you're in public office. Seems stupid.
Manuel Adorni, Milei’s spokesman silenced by the scandals closing in
Since joining the Argentine government, the current Cabinet chief has acquired properties and taken trips that appear inconsistent with his income level. He is being investigated by the courts for alleged illicit enrichment

This guy is mentally ill. He doesn't care about anything. There is so much fraud by him and his sister.
Is there any way Adorni can turn around his image? It doesn't seem like it.

Meanwhile Milei seems like he is in La La land. He still looks at him and his sister as heroes. He posted a video on his IG and I couldn't help but laugh.
Adorni scandal drags down Milei's poll numbers as courts probe his assets
Argentine Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni has been formally charged with alleged illicit enrichment in a case investigating a reported 500% increase in his declared assets over a single fiscal period, according to a complaint filed by lawmaker Marcela Pagano. On April 9, federal judge Ariel Lijo...

I for the life of me can't figure out why he bought all of these properties recently. He didn't need to and he had to know the scrutiny would be on him. The facts seem clear. The old ladies that he claimed mortgaged the properties to him claim not even to know him. Why would he buy these properties now? Couldn't he have waited until he wasn't in the limelight?Is there any way Adorni can turn around his image? It doesn't seem like it.

Classic mistake. Argentine politicians treat things like a soccer match. Our team against theirs. It is totally stupid. The people in the middle is he he needs to appeal to and he is losing the fight against those people.
Many of my friends don't like all of the obvious thieving going on. All the politicians do it but he was so strong about being against the caste and now it is clear that they are no different. The ANSIS scandal was especially bad.
All the politicians use real estate because they can't buy anything like stocks as it is so traceable. Many buy real estate after real estate. Granted, many don't have terrible excuses how they could pay for it. Like Milei with Libra it is totally unnecessary. Many people were saying Adorni was set to be President after Milei's 2 terms.
The simple answer is that they never think they will be caught. My guess is there are many other disasters that will be uncovered. There are more coming out daily like the mortgages for anyone in LLA even for people that wouldn't quality normally.

They can't help themselves. It's one way you know they don't really believe in their own BS. Milei planned the Libra theft soon after starting. Proof positive that he didn't believe in the turn around of Argentina or he wouldn't have messed around with it. Same with Ansis. They are taking while they can.
It makes me laugh that people criticize Cristina and all her properties but they excuse Adorni when he is doing the same thing. Cristina had many decades to grift. Look and they are finding all kinds of properties from Adorni now. What do you think happens if they stay in power many years? It is no different. It can't be not ok for Cristina and Ok for Adorni or others.
This guy on Milei's team "forgot" to declare 7 properties in Miami.

This is what annoys me. The double standard. People say yes but Cristina was a bigger thief. But she has had 25 years to steal. Milei's team has only been in power a short time and we don't know how much they are doing. Adorni every week seems to have another property. I don't understand. Why do they buy properties? Why don't think just use crypto or something that is not traceable?
It looks like no matter who the blame is really. Most people are saying it's Milei's fault.
According to a survey by Alaska and Trespuntozero, 64% of Argentines believe that the crisis is the responsibility ofMilei's government. Far behind, 14.9% point to CFK and 14% to Alberto Fernández.
That is a good way to put it. It's really pathetic that they are trying to bring on Peronists now to get more votes. They sure have gone downhill. This breaks it down what is happening.

I don't think even the ones that support him can argue that he isn't doing some stupid ass stuff. Some of the scams are so obvious. People are at their limit. People also try to say Cristina has over 125 properties but she was at the grift for decades. Probably some of these people would follow the same pattern. This guy Adorni didn't have a pot to piss in and all of a sudden he is buying properties left and right. It's the same thing Cristina did.
La lista de gastos y bienes de Adorni que aparecen en la mira de la Justicia
El jefe de Gabinete había declarado tener ahorros por US$48.720, pero en dos años desembolsó en efectivo una cifra superior a ese monto; sumó dos propiedades y contrajo deudas por US$335.000; el patrimonio de su esposa podría ser clave

I posted my experience about buying. Eye opener now and understand it all more. The seller of the property already admitted to lying about the sales price. It sounds like everyone does this. I am not sure who has liability in this kind of thing. Seems like everyone is doing it.I don't think even the ones that support him can argue that he isn't doing some stupid ass stuff.

Adorni just sounds stupid. The cover story is so terrible. Much like Libra and everything else. Probably the best thing they can do if Milei won't fire his sister is to just find another suitable candidate in time to replace them to run against Kicillof. LLA is imploding.

You have to be a complete idiot not to realize Milei and his team are only stuffing their pockets just like Cristina did.
They aren't doing anything for the middle class. This entire thing looks like a train wreck since Libra.

They are doing the same thing. Some how it is wrong when Cristina does it but ok when all the rest. Look at Carlos Frugoni quitting yesterday as Secretariat of Infrastructure Coordination. Caputo quickly accepted it.
He only forgot to declare 7 expensive properties in Miami. 😛
What I can't figure out is why would you go into public office or hold a position of power if you were doing this???
It makes no sense to me.
Is there any punishment like jail time or penalties when people do this?
I just don't understand it. Didn't they do an amnesty recently? Why not declare this during the amnesties?
