After the scandal over the strong increase that the senators were granted, the legislator of Together for Change
Luis Juez
crossed his radical counterpart Martín Lousteau for defending the strong increase in allowances. "
Let him become Milei's tweeter or take Adorni's place
," he said.
"If there are senators who understand that this debate must be held, it must be held in broad daylight and without any type of situation that calls for surprise, with absolute clarity. What happened the other day was truly shameful, embarrassing," Judge noted in dialogue with radio
Miter
.
When asked about Lousteau's statements that a senator is "earning less than a tweeter of the President", the man from Córdoba took up the gauntlet: "Well, then
let him become a tweeter for Milei or take Adorni's place
and become the President's spokesperson, but this way, with this darkness, with this lack of transparency is not the way.
"It is not the way in which we can have the authority to stand up to the problems that Argentina is experiencing. I do not interfere with anyone's pocket, but let no one interfere with my honor," said Judge, who said he was " mouth" but not "a thief."
Along those lines, the senator continued: "If you guys want to discuss, I'm going to give you the opportunity next session. We're going to propose a project, we'll try the project of our block, we're going from scratch and if you want to take 4 hours or 10 hours to discuss the issue, so that everyone can say what they have to say and not like the other day in 90 seconds.
For Judge, "at the moment that Argentina is experiencing, it is absolutely inappropriate" for senators to increase their salaries. "It doesn't seem fair to me that in the middle of a crisis like the one we are experiencing, we double our salary in 90 seconds. It seems shameful to me and I say it with all my words," he lashed out.
Regarding the criticism made against him for not having expressed himself against receiving the increase, the Córdoba leader retorted: "It is a stupid, lying, absolutely fallacious interpretation. If the President of the body says that those who are in favor of the affirmative please raise hand and I don't raise it...In the Senate things work like this: when the vote is roll call, it is the board, when the vote is by show of hands, the one who raises his hand is assenting and the one who doesn't raise his hand He's not doing it."
"We cannot be in those stupid discussions. They
are not going to put me in the platoon of magic doormats
. Clearly there is not a single senator in the Senate of Argentina who says that Luis Juez agreed. There is no Senator, if you know me or have ever crossed paths with me, you can say that I can consent to something crazy like that," he stressed.
