Leaders and Kirchnerist activists held a rally and a march to Plaza de Mayo in support of the corrupt former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, after the Supreme Court upheld her six-year prison sentence in the Vialidad case and the Oral Court ordered her to serve the sentence under house arrest.
During the demonstration, an audio message from Cristina Kirchner was broadcast over loudspeakers installed at the site, with the slogan "we will return", even though she was permanently disqualified from holding public office, as a backdrop.
The former president, who organized a coup-mongering march against the Judiciary and Milei's Government, could go to a regular prison for inciting public disorder, after breaking the rules of her house arrest.

In her message, she thanked the activists for their support and stated that, according to her, "this model, now embodied by Milei, which is no different from those of the past, will fall."
At the beginning of her speech, the corrupt former president questioned the judicial decision that prevents her from going out onto the balcony to greet her followers: "God, what a bunch of junk they are," she said. She also thanked the activists who came to her residence in the Constitución neighborhood of Buenos Aires.
"Thank you from the heart. I've heard you sing slogans, the march, the anthem. What I liked most was hearing you sing 'we will return' again. I hadn't heard it in a long time. I like it because it reveals a will. That the workers make it to the end of the month. Truly Peronist. The retirees had medicine. My God," said the former vice president, who left the country on the verge of hyperinflation.

"That country was no utopia. We lived it for 12 and a half years. In addition, we left it debt-free, like families and companies," Cristina lied.
Near the end, she launched criticism against Milei's successful Government, which managed to reduce inflation, poverty, and generate economic growth: "This model, now embodied by Milei, which is no different from those of the past, will fall. Not only because it's unfair, but because it's unsustainable from an economic standpoint. It has an expiration date, like yogurt."
Finally, Cristina threatened: "The Argentine people have shown that they know how to organize, fight, and know how to return. I've endured this disastrous judicial process that ends with the same corruption. We will return, and also with more wisdom, with more unity, with more strength, and from the trenches."
