Unbelievable: delirious Kirchnerist leaders from Córdoba came out to support CFK

After the court ruling that disqualifies Cristina Kirchner became known, K leaders came out in defense of the former president. In Córdoba, that support directly clashes with the collective memory of a province that has historically been anti-Kirchnerist. This is based on the contempt and aversion that the convicted former president has always felt toward the Mediterranean province.

De la Sota admitted being a Kirchnerist

With the lukewarmness that characterizes her, National Deputy Natalia De la Sota posted a message on social media that caused controversy among Córdoba voters critical of Kirchnerism. Attempting to position herself in a moderate center, she repeated the same script that Kirchnerism has been using for years. Her ambiguity was exposed in a context where clarity is demanded in the face of corruption cases.

Speaking of a "politicized justice" at this moment proves to be functional to the impunity narrative that seeks to discredit any judicial progress. Her attempt to capitalize politically on this episode, in the middle of an election year, reveals an electoral repositioning strategy. Far from condemning firmly, her message leaves the door open to future alliances with the more hardline sectors of Kirchnerism.

In 2025, when she must renew her seat, these statements raise suspicions about her possible inclusion on lists close to Frente de Todos. Her apparent moderation fades when she validates the narrative of those seeking to weaken the Judiciary and victimize those convicted of corruption.

"Love can't be banned"

Another one of the outrageous statements on social media came from National Deputy K, Gabriela Estevez. On her Instagram, she posted two images that received many negative and mocking comments about Cristina Kirchner's conviction. With a ludicrous statement, she referred to the idea that "love can't be banned", which she later reaffirmed in statements to local media.

The delusions coming from the Legislature

In one of his many outrageous outbursts, the only Kirchnerist legislator in Córdoba came out to support the corrupt and convicted former president, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. On X, Federico Alesandri spoke of "tragic days for democratic life" and "persecution" minutes before the CSJN ruling was issued.

The former mayor completely omitted the facts proven by the case. Showing desperation to remain attached to a figure who in Córdoba draws less than 10% of the votes, the legislator criticized the fact that the judiciary and the republic are functioning normally.

Córdoba doesn't forget Kirchnerism's record

In Córdoba, that support for Kirchnerism directly clashes with a memory marked by the 2013 lootings, when the national government abandoned the province to its fate. Since then, former governor José Manuel de la Sota broke with Kirchnerism after years of mistreatment. In that context, Natalia De la Sota's nerve stands out, as she now endorses a narrative that her own father firmly repudiated during one of the most critical moments for the people of Córdoba.

This was reflected in the poor turnout at the PJ Córdoba headquarters on Bv San Juan, and it shows the nonexistence of the Kirchnerist narrative in the province. With a notoriously reduced attendance, the march managed to gather only a few core activists. Paradoxically, the demonstrators move along the roadway strictly respecting the Bullrich's anti-picketing protocol, which they had so strongly criticized.

Total disconnection from the people of Córdoba

Gabriela Estévez posted that "banning is political violence" and that CFK is "a victim of a mafia power." That narrative, repeated ad nauseam, seeks to turn into a martyr someone who was part of the biggest corruption scandals in Argentine history. Reducing a judicial conviction to a political operation ignores the real harm caused to Argentines.

The people of Córdoba have systematically voted against Kirchnerism and reject its political and economic model. K leaders in Córdoba do not represent a social majority, but rather a militancy disconnected from local reality.

Double narrative

While they denounce "lawfare," they avoid any self-criticism or reflection on Kirchnerism's structural corruption. The Judiciary is attacked only when its rulings inconvenience those who believe they are above the law.

Reality says otherwise: today we witnessed a historic event. The scarce Kirchnerist militancy in Córdoba remains attached to a corrupt and convicted figure. Meanwhile, the people of Córdoba take to the streets honking their horns to celebrate the Supreme Court's ruling.
