A black swan emerged in the final sprint of the campaign and brought some “noise” into Sergio Massa’s strategy for the second round. The impeachment of the Supreme Court wasn’t even on the candidates’ agenda, and it was languishing in the margins. An attempt at damage control will start soon, but it will require a delicate balancing act to prevent further mishaps. Fallout from the impeachment attemptWithin UxP, people wondered why the judges had made the answers public, since the impeachment issue had been basically encapsulated. If he ever had a political objective and a virtuous goal of uniting the ruling coalition, the issue became a dirty bomb for the campaign.

Villarruel, who has ties with military officers who were part of the 1976 dictatorship, once again denied that the number of disappeared was 30,000.

The CELTYV and Villarruel herself have been accused by human rights organizations of promoting denialist ideas of the state-sponsored terrorism that took place during the dictatorship.

Milei scornfully refers to career politicians as “the caste” and his economic program as the “chainsaw plan” — a nod to his proposed wide-ranging budget cuts and drastically reducing the size of the state. He had the right ideas, the right direction, but he failed at the speed [needed to set them in motion],” Milei said, adding that Macri’s allies were to blame for his lack of success. During the interview, Milei also made unfounded claims that there were “irregularities” in the October 22 elections, saying that the electoral authorities were “influenced” by the government’s executive branch. Milei and his supporters have been making unfounded claims of electoral fraud since before the elections even happened. Milei’s party has not presented any formal reports of fraud to the electoral authorities.

Economy Minister and presidential candidate Sergio Massa said that he will eliminate currency restrictions at the end of 2024 if he wins the November 19 run-off election. The currency restrictions are known in Spanish as the cepo. “We will eliminate the cepo when 2024 ends and we have enough dollar reserves for trade to flow freely, while also not having to strain our reserves,” Massa said. Lifting currency restrictions was one of the main campaign promises of right-wing candidates Javier Milei, who will compete against Massa in the November 19 run-off, and Patricia Bullrich. Currency restrictions have been in place, on and off, for the past decade, through former Presidents Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and Mauricio Macri’s governments.

The Federal Criminal Cassation Court ratified its decision to declare sexual abuse and rape committed during the last military dictatorship as crimes against humanity. Being considered a crime against humanity means that there is no longer a statute of limitations for reporting dictatorship-era sexual abuse and the crimes are considered to be part of a systematic attack against a sector of the civil population. These include crimes against sexual integrity, such as violence against pregnant women and forced pregnancy. The first time a sexual crime was convicted as a crime against humanity was in 2010 in Mar del Plata. One of the officers convicted of sexual crimes against humanity is Jorge “Tigre” Acosta, who recently seemed to back far-right candidate Javier Milei in an open letter written from prison.

From behind-the-scenes conversations at the newsroom to classic translation troubles where the English translation just hits different, here are three words that tickled our linguistic funny bone recently at the Herald. You might not look at corn and dough the same way again. We were discussing these choclos in Spanish in the newsroom and suddenly we thought “Hang on a second, why do we refer to hulking long texts as corn? And maybe next time I see a particularly long quote, I’ll just comment “corn,” professional editor that I am. Share your thoughts and translation hang-ups with us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram!
