Armaron un simulacro de rescate en el congreso, con helicóptero incluido, pero se olvidaron de comunicar públicamente.
Por 15 min pensé que finalmente se pudrieron del espanta duendes de jardín.

Lo único que le entendí a ese gnomo de jardín fugado del ácido fólico es que realmente sacrificaría todo el país por Israel.
Each month, hundreds of thousands of Argentines are booking shopping sprees abroad that are depleting the hard-currency reserves needed to defend the peso as it comes under attack. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/10/06/economy/argentines-currency-crisis/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #argentina #currencies #javiermilei #chile

Partigiana della Memoria. Addio a Vera Vigevani, testimone e vittima delle dittature del 900.
Per ricordarla un'intervista da Radio Popolare: https://www.radiopopolare.it/puntata/?ep=popolare-clip/clip_03_10_2025_19_12
È morta a 97 anni Vera Vigevani Jarach. Giornalista e attivista, ebrea di Milano scappata in Argentina da bambina a causa delle leggi razziste approvate dal regime fascista, divenne poi una delle Madres de plaza de Mayo: sua figlia Franca fu sequestrata durante l’ultima dittatura nel paese sudamericano e divenne una desaparecida. Il suo corpo non fu mai ritrovato. In questa intervista con Sara Milanese, Vera Vigevani Jarach sottolineava il parallelo tra le due vicende che hanno segnato drammaticamente la sua vita.

Aditya Chakrabortty asks why having been so supportive & celebratory of Javier Milei until recently, his cheerleaders on the right have fallen strangely quiet as Argentina plunges into economic chaos & Milei's party loses an election?
Well, of course, their fantasy politics taken into governance by Milei has met a reality that it was unable to deal with... the Q. is how long before the USA follows a similar arc?

➤ Making Argentina Great Again
it is incredibly suspicious to me that the US Treasury fund #Bessent wants to use to bail out #Argentina and Javier #Milei is almost exactly the same size as the amount of money #Tether is suddenly trying to raise via a “private placement”.
Tether is one of the most profitable companies in the history of the world, at least according to their own unaudited / unverified numbers. There should be no reason for them to need to raise capital and no desire on their part to sell off part of their cash cow.
Puting aside for a moment the absurdity of the idea that the central bank of international criminal finance considers itself to be in the same league as companies like Google, Nvidia, and Tesla, I can think of 3 possible explanations:
1. Tether is (somehow) out of cash. This is lent some credence by the fact that they are failing to pay their electricity bill in #Uruguay and had their power turned off a few weeks ago.
2. Tether wants to get some shares into the hands of corrupt government officials (other than Howard “Nutlick” #Lutnick, who already has some) for protection.
3. Now that the #Fed has pivoted and cut rates Tether’s income is about to start dropping (and the more the fed cuts, the more it will drop) so they are just cashing out the founders at the top. This is the most charitable interpretation.
it’s also worth mentioning that:
1. Tether’s #USDT token is very popular with #Argentinians trying to avoid that country’s hyperinflation. While technically illegal because of capital controls, it’s still a “crime” I have some sympathy for. But it does mean there’s an important connection between Tether and Argentina.
2. Tether is a major shareholder in south american agriculture business #Adecoagro which does a lot of work in Argentina.

He said options for a support package “may include, but are not limited to, swap lines, direct currency purchases and purchases of US dollar-denominated government debt from Treasury’s Exchange Stabilisation Fund”. The fund, which was set up in 1934, is controlled by the US Treasury secretary, who has “considerable discretion” in the use of its assets — including about to intervene in exchange rates.

🇦🇷 Argentina wants to be an AI powerhouse, but its tech experts are leaving
｢ In Argentina, sweeping austerity under Milei’s “chainsaw” agenda of huge budget cuts to government programs has made the future even more uncertain. More than 52,000 jobs have been eliminated in the public sector since he took office, of which over 4,000 account for scientific research positions ｣

El Donald™ ha dicho que no cree que #Argentina🇦🇷 necesite un rescate, así que la tarea de Bessent está clara: que el rescate (porque será un rescate) no parezca un rescate.
