The deputy of La Libertad Avanza described the piquetero leadership as “manure”: “They profit from people who are outside the system,” he declared.
José Luis Espert
After learning of the complaints of extortion of beneficiaries of social plans by representatives of organizations that in recent years administered the assistance provided by the State, the national deputy of La Libertad Avanza, José Luis Espert , spoke in harsh terms about the leadership picket.
Espert is one of the first representatives of the ruling party to speak publicly in the midst of the judicial investigation into the management of social assistance. This Monday, telephone calls were made known in which people in vulnerable situations provided officials from the Ministry of Security with information about the leaders who required them to attend marches and party activities as a condition to continue receiving the benefit .
Asked about this, the legislator pointed to the opposition: “Kirchnerism and its caboose - the left - are the scourge, they are the manure of the Argentine leadership . And the heavy version of the manure of that leadership is the piqueteros movements. "They are the worst trash on earth, worse than unionists, because they profit from people who are outside the system . "
In statements to Todo Noticias (TN) , he again confronted the Polo Obrero leader, Eduardo Bellibon i: “He is a criminal, he has prevented companies from distributing their merchandise, he blocked streets at random.” “Belliboni to jail, let's get those scourges off our backs ,” he added.
“Social plans have to go directly to the beneficiary for a certain period of time, it is not forever, for some compensation such as finishing primary or secondary school, or for him to work if he does not work, but the social plan for there to be decent work has to be very transitory, conditional and directly to the person who is without any short-term viability," he considered.
For Espert, “the fault” that there are people in vulnerable situations “is the damned Kirchnerism and these damned unionists who now have a second eschatological version that is the piqueteros movements.”
Federal judge Sebastián Casanello and prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita are leading the investigation that was made public this Monday when a series of raids on different picket groups were ordered. The complaint analyzes whether vulnerable people were extorted with the delivery of merchandise delivered by the State in exchange for attending marches, under threat of losing the social plan.

The chats of the case that investigates picketers for extortion of beneficiaries of social plans
Infobae accessed phrases that are part of the evidence analyzed by justice. “Patry, I wanted to know if I get the merchandise. I'm grounded" . The message was intended for Patry, or rather Patricia Iramain, delegate, who had noticed the list of names in a group message saying: “ Good evening colleagues. These are the ones who are not going to withdraw the Nation's merchandise because they have zero mobilizations .”
According to the prosecutor's office, these are people in a situation of high social vulnerability, and said demand was made under various concepts such as "capitas", "quotas", "dining room rental". Or to charge them for the delivery of food, even though they received it free of charge from the National Government, or force them to sell the food received from the National State in the area, with the accused keeping the profit, and /or force them to participate in “mobilizations.” of the political groups to which they belong, and even in some cases distribute flyers of candidates for electoral elections.”

All of this, the opinion says, occurred “under the express threat that, if they did not comply with these demands, they would be discharged from social benefits and/or they would be denied food and merchandise .”
At the same time, it was also verified that, to sustain the duration over time and guarantee the functioning of this activity, a system of control and sanctions on the victims was implemented, which included the taking of assistance to the "mobilizations." —at the beginning and at the end—, the preparation of “lists of those punished” —who had to “repair” their sanction by completing new tasks—, the imposition of fines for missing a “march” —up to $10,000 for each absence —, the requirement to “justify” absences from “mobilizations” with “proof” of the respective impediments (medical appointments, procedures, etc.), and the prohibition of withdrawing food rations or non-perishable food —for certain periods, according to each “non-compliance”—, among other mechanisms.
Espert came out to Axel Kicillof for his absence in the May Pact: “You are a garca of the people of Buenos Aires”
Last night the liberal economist took the opportunity to criticize Axel Kicillof for giving up being part of the May Pact.“Kicillof, who governs the province of Buenos Aires, receives 40 pesos of co-participation for every 100 he contributes, instead of going to the May Pact, where they will work on a new co-participation so that it does not harm the province of Buenos so much. Aires, says that he is not going to go to the May Pact and is associated with provinces that receive 3 times more than what they contribute," he said in statements to TN.
Then, through his X account, he fired: “Kicillof, you are a garca of the people of Buenos Aires. You travel with La Rioja, Formosa and Tierra del Fuego that smoke your pipe.”
