The event was held under the slogan "Kirchnerism Never Again," a motto with which La Libertad Avanza launched its campaign in the province. Milei referred to that slogan on stage when the audience chanted "Never again, never again."
In his speech, the President also attacked the press, which, according to his account, would have collaborated with the continuity of Kirchnerism: "Kirchnerists and Kicillof's government used their countless paid spokespeople to promise Buenos Aires residents paradise. They promised so much and delivered so little that the only way for people to believe them is if there's no one else in the newspapers, in classrooms, on social media, or on television itself saying anything different, that's why they keep paying everyone off," he stated.
Milei, meanwhile, insisted on social and educational issues and cited data on literacy and learning: "Schools are falling apart. Our young people aren't learning, given that 45% of primary students in the province don't understand basic texts and 86% don't reach satisfactory levels in mathematics. That's why it's not surprising that the governor can't even add with an abacus. He adds with difficulty," he stated.
The President also referred to provincial and municipal spending: "He decided to spend millions of pesos on gender policies that solve nothing except the economic well-being of his friends... spending, for example, billions of pesos on streaming for cronies that no one listens to," he said, and criticized what he described as a network of phantom employees and favors in public administration: "The State is for his friends. Starting a business in the Province is a Greek odyssey. Or an administrative tangle that, regulation after regulation, hinders wealth generation and demands bribes to solve problems they themselves create."
During his speech, Milei recalled a previous commitment: "Not long ago I promised not to insult, and I thank you for that because I noticed I was giving critics of my style a refuge so they wouldn't discuss the real content... That's why, no more insults and from now on let's discuss the ideas you don't have and that we do have," he stated.
The event's closing returned to the call to go to the polls. Milei asked Buenos Aires residents to go out and vote on September 7: "Staying home isn't an option... going out to vote means not being deceived. It's saying 'enough' to the ongoing scam subsidized by distorting taxes," he said, in a final appeal to mobilize his base.
