Thread: Milei's DNUs as they happen

[Quilombo]

I thought I would take the liberty of creating a thread to discuss the DNUs as they happen so we have a central place to talk about them, and the impact they will have on the community and country.

1st DNU: Reduction of Ministries Restructuring

Milei's first DNU as president was to reduce the number of Presidential Ministries in half, from 18 to 9. The new Ministries are as follows:

- Security (Patricia Bullrich)
- Justice (Mariano Cuneo Libarona);
- Economy (Luis Caputo)
- Foreign Affairs (Diana Mondino)
- Interiorᵗ (Guillermo Francos)
- Defense (Luis Petri)
- Health* (Mario Russo)
- Human Capital** (Sandra Pettovello)
- Infrastructure*** (Guillermo Ferraro)

*Health was to be eliminated as a ministerial post, but he decided to keep it
**Human Capital is an umbrella ministry for the former Ministries of Social Development, Education, Labor, Women and Culture
***Infrastructure is an umbrella ministry for the former Ministries of Public Works, Transport, and Communications
ᵗTourism, Environment, and Sustainable Development now fall under the Ministry of the Interior

The former Ministry of Science and Technology will fall under the Chief of Staff, Nicolás Posee, and Karina Milei will be the General Secretary of the President of the Nation.

- Economic measures are to be announced tomorrow by Luis Caputo; expectations are at least a devluation followed by some form of tax reduction
- A de facto bank holiday has been in effect for the MULC/forex market pending tomorrow's announcements
- Price lists finally arrive for grocery stores with 20% increases
- A Militant K was arrested for assaulting a member of the presidential security detail yesterday, having thrown a glass bottle at Milei and his sister, missing both, but cutting the man's head/ear in the process

Detuvieron a Gastón Mercanzini, el hombre que le arrojó un botellazo al Presidente

This guy, Gastón, used to come into Gibraltar in San Telmo all the time for a few months. He's a crazy character. He was often trying to sell people things. We all did our best to ignore him. He was finally banned from the bar a couple months ago for trying to steal money from the tip jar.

He's probably not a fan of the expats in San Telmo

I think that, at least during the time he was coming into the bar, he was much more interested in trying to scam people, Argentinos and extranjeros alike, than thinking about where we were all from.

As you might imagine, he's about the only topic in the chat for the bar in the last day or two. One guy out of almost 50 million people, and he was always coming in the bar. Amazing.

Gaston has several legal causes pending and was wearing an ankle monitor device until recently. He came to BA and was in homeless status. Throwing a bottle to the Milei caravan, is a sign of protest. Constitutes a Presidential murder attempt ?.

Does it compare with The Copitos triggering a gun to CFK's head..?

Great bar the Gibraltar by the way.

I happened to meet my wife there on boxing day nearly 14 years ago

Presidential murder attempt? absolutely!, does it compare to the copitos? as far as trying to murder a president, of course! the only difference i see, is that president Milei had done nothing to trigger any one to the point of wanting to kill him ''just because'', on the other hand former vice president cristina had angered many people for many different reasons for a long time, still, doesn't justify such an act but her list of enemies was a very large one.
