Breathe
By Yohali Reséndiz
Verifying the fulfillment of the commitments made by Cuauhtémoc Blanco as governor-elect during his work and gratitude tour in front of thousands of Morelenses has been very easy because his government itself is insurmountably dishonest. A Mentiragate.
It is clear...he lied because he needed to keep on lying. Governor Blanco has lied because he needs to sustain another lie: his unsustainable government.
While Morelos struggles with lack of progress and insecurity, a little more than four years into his administration, one of his most vile lies has been to promise the women of Morelos to reduce femicides and provide them with security, while the number of femicides in 2022 alone registered 107; the bloodiest in that category in 22 years.
And so, dishonesty as any story, had a beginning, first, taking office as mayor of Cuernavaca and then as Governor who has bifurcated the destiny of Morelos because there are those who suddenly look at him in an event and get rid to get a picture with one of the best soccer players this country has ever had forgetting that he has been the same one who has them on their knees as one of the most ignorant foreign political citizens who has been derogatorily called the chilango who was brought to Morelos for the convenience of some but does not know how to govern.
But what did the liar say?
"This government is committed to recovering what no one else has done. We have outlined government axes and concrete goals, which will put our state on the path of progress and confidence."
Cuauhtémoc Blanco continued lying, "We will reactivate the Mariano Matamoros airport with high operational capacity".
And what has been the most cynical lie? We will build a regional train connecting Morelos with Mexico City with intermediate stops.
And what is the most fantastic lie? A large and functional bus station.
And the most vicious lie? We are going to build a building worthy of Civil Protection and worthy of the Fire Department".
Liar. Liar. Liar.
And his most unforgettable lie? State security and social peace will be restored. Intentional homicides total 3 thousand 976 from 2019 to 2022.
And his most astute lie? We will reduce the shortage of medicines, there will be education without conflicts or backwardness.
And the most unforgettable lie? Decent housing for the people of Morelos.
And the most untrue lie of all lies? The bad image of Morelos is being cleaned up and the social wounds left by the state administration are beginning to heal. The axes of my government highlight unity, security, social justice, modernity and zero impunity.
And the most ruthless lie? Let's regain confidence and do what the others did not do.
The truth is that Cuauhtémoc Blanco has been a liar backed by other liars willing to continue disguising him as a politician when the only thing that has fit Cuauhtémoc Blanco is the soccer uniform of the Mexican national team.
