The Supreme Court of Justice took an oath to Manuel García Mansilla to integrate the ranks of said agency. At a time when the government faces scandals and multiple conflict fronts, the Court goes to the help of the libertarian government, seeking to lower the tension.
With the acceptance of García Mansilla to the Court, the designation is validated by decree that was questioned by broad sectors for its unconstitutional nature, since their proposal was not accepted by the Senate. This acceptance leaves Milei closer to having a majority in the Supreme Court that responds directly. In addition, García Mansilla swore as “supreme” after having lied, to declare that he would not assume in case of being designated by decree.
Curriculum antiderechos
Manuel García Mansilla is a lawyer linked to Opus Dei, of strong militancy against the right to abortion. So much so that it was one of the exhibitors in Congress in 2018 in defense of “celestial scarves.” On that occasion he declared: “The right to life from conception is recognized in norms of maximum hierarchy in our country; abortion, on the other hand, is a crime that has some causes of non -punishability provided for in the Criminal Code.” This reactionary character was positioned even in favor of the punishability of abortions in case of rape.
Until today Dean of the Law School of the Universidad Austral, it also exercises as a lawyer for oil and extractivist companies that loot the Argentine territory. So employer and proxtractivist is its positioning that since 2014 is part of the Executive Directory of the Hydrocarbons Exploration and Production Chamber (CEPH). In this way, it fully coincides with the looting plan contemplated by the libertarian government of Javier Milei for Argentina, favoring mining and oil extraction to raffle the country at the hands of large multi -multi
Lijo, we’ll see
Although García Mansilla took an oath, tensions around the conformation of the Supreme Court continue. The case of Ariel Lijo, more questioned to an individual title, even by sectors of the right such as Mauricio Macri or business associations such as the US Chamber of Commerce, for now it remains unresolved. The designation of Lijo had achieved an opinion in the corresponding commission, accompanied by the firm, not only of libertarians, but also of Kirchnerists and radicals. However, to the following session, in full scandal for Milei’s cryptophawish, they refused to advance the vote.
As reported from the Court, the resolution on the case of Lijo would be pending to be defined next Thursday, March 6. There the magistrates will decide whether or not to make the request of this on an extraordinary license of his position as a federal judge, until the Senate defines or not his designation.
The crisis remains open despite the efforts of the highest court to try to resolve it. No progressive resolution for the great majorities can come from these dark handles. It is necessary to develop the widest mobilization against this government of scammers, but also deeply question the foundations of this deeply antidemocratic power that is the judiciary, whose privileged judges support the conditions of the existing order, seeking to guarantee the exploitation of the large working majorities, by a business minority.
