What should be a technical session, dominated by the budget debate and executive decrees, became a political typhoon. The head of the block of Union for the homeland, The senator José Mayans, diverted the focus with explosive insults towards Virginia Gallardocandidate for deputy for La Libertad advances (lla) in Corrientes
The Formoseño legislator, with obvious irritation, denied rumors about millionaire diets. “A year ago they tell me that I will win nine or ten million pesos and every time I am going to check my account … I see that it does not even reach half. We won less than a judge of first instance,” he said in an indignant tone.
But the episode climbed when he pointed against panelist and former vedette. “I tell the silly one … What is the name of? The Gallardo Victory … forgiveness, Virginia Gallardo … that it is Corrientes. She says she wants to win nine million. She is a fool, a stupid. If she believes that she will come here to win that money … he ate the lie of the president,” concluded the Peronist senator, using controversy insults towards the artist.
The replica came instantly, through social networks, where Gallardo was not kept anything: “more silly and stupid, Mr. Mayans, is not knowing that I am a candidate for deputy and not a senator, so she will not have the pleasure of having me as a companion.” A few weeks ago, at the Mirtha Legrand table, the actress had commented: “I want to be a senator, they win nine million, they do not work and they are sold.”
“Stay with a cut that was addressing the missionaries who changed their vote in a clean file … but you are right: they do not earn that money, they will win more … that information does not give me Milei, but the most prestigious media … I wanted to congratulate him for the education he handles in his lexicon, thus treating a woman who could be her daughter. Country pain,” Gallardo closed.
Although the session was intended to discuss decrees signed by the Executive Power, the verbal exchange completely diverted the agenda. As if that were not enough, another viral moment exploded in parallel. The senator Anabel Fernández Sagastireferring to the Kirchner interblock, committed a slip that quickly circulated in networks. The parliamentarian instead of mentioning her political force with the name of Union for the country called him “Union for silver.”
The confusion between “homeland” and “silver” seemed like an unconscious lapse, a sign of the times, in a congress where money is the center of the controversy. A tense session that deviated for an insult from Mayans to Gallardo, a blunt replica of the candidate and a verbal error of Sagasti that, beyond laughter, reflects how complex the Argentine politics became real in real time.
