righteous leaders don't need anyone telling them what, where and how to do what they want to do...good luck with that

Epstein's best friend probably uses his lapdog puppet Milei to test run any crazy idea he wants to implement.

AND, since I live here, he did that just when Peter Thiel came visiting. Sounds "sus" to me.

I mean, how many countries are left that aren't sliding into full fascism at this point?

Don't talk to me, Argentina. I'd rather you go and f*** off. Just let me do shit. Without inspection. My hair is wild. Don't ask me questions.

He's just a disgusting puppet of Trump; Milei has so many mental problems he should be institutionalized.

The average Listnookor isn't going to read up on the fact that this is a temporary measure while an investigation is conducted into journalists illegally entering a restricted area with hidden cameras.

Wouldn't the solution be, "enforce restricted area restrictions" and not "further increase restrictions selectively?"

I agree… However How often does “temporary measures” become permanent.

Time will tell, but with the recent spying scandals surrounding journalists, It's best to be cautious.

That's a stupid reason to ban journalists from the palace and only stupid people will fall for it.

It seems you're not up to date about the spying scandals surrounding journalists that have occurred in Argentina in recent weeks, but you're quick enough to call people "stupid."

Philo_Publius1776 Apr 28, 2026 +18
I'm up to date. And someone has to be stupid to believe that reflects on the media institutionally.

Stupid is underestimating national security, because if I truly know what’s going on, only a stupid person could think these things are coincidental in the current context.

No, that’s an idiot’s idea, but also stupid. So I guess you do know what stupid is but have a hard time recognizing it. Lol “national security.”

Because it sounds like the thinnest of excuses. And the end result is the same, no matter the reason.

Actually i wonder ...is that we are in the disillusionment time, especially the people that elected actually showing their failures and schemes of their own personal interest.

So, either they stop reporting the President's side of things, or they make stuff up. If it's a reliable media outlet, it's the first. Thus, the President has a smaller voice, because he is not being reported, or it's the second, and it won't change much. It's hard to see what's in it for Milei.

Journalist in Argentina have been rocked hard. The scandal of Journalist and some news media companies being paid by Russia to fabricated Fake news againts Milei goverment has completely eroded their credibility and has embolden people who hated them. And sadly they continue making blunders like this.

This comment is pants on head silly. There is no "they." All you described is one journalist and one media company. The media in Argentina is hundreds of media companies and God knows how many journalists. No one is stupid enough to think these things reflect on the "media" as some monolith.

Nah, we do, news media has been absolutely disgusting since milei cut their governed funding

Bro, the Argentine media is trying to normalize eating donkey meat just to avoid admitting that Milei’s economic plan is a disaster.

That donkey meat bs is just one more example of their shit. Is one producer in the south that started raising donkeys for meat,  not a government pushed patch for any food emergency.  The news just ran with it to claim its a bad thing, and everyone just eats it up,  unlike donkey meat.

anon1mo56 Apr 28, 2026 +5
Actually that producer was already doing it to export. Argentina exports donkey meat to China and that producer had the idea to start selling donkey meat domestically to see if there was a market for it. He believed people would be interested because it was gonna be cheaper than cow beef. The producer later gave a interview were he explained the context of him selling donkey meat and expressed anger at journalist for twisting the situation.
