«In fact, there are more women than men,» acknowledged Sheinbaum. The big loser was the retired minister Arturo Zaldívar, who of course anxiously awaited his moment in the spotlight, but with the appointment of Damián Peralta, the former lawyer confirmed that the Coordination of Policy and Government of the Presidency, where César Yáñez once was—punished by López Obrador—is where the 'frozen' of the 4T reside. On the other side of the street, at the Old City Hall, they saw the appointment from a different perspective: as a reinforcement of the political group of Secretary Omar García Harfuch in Mexico City, where Clara Brugada entrusted Héctor Díaz-Polanco with reorganizing her group and the sympathizers of the Martí, heading towards 2027. «Esthela Damián is not just any lawyer. She is a very honest, hardworking woman, she gets along well with everyone, and the Legal Advisory is very important,» said President Claudia Sheinbaum referring to the appointment of the Guerrero native as the new Legal Advisor to the Presidency in place of Ernestina Godoy, who was recently elected by the Senate as Attorney General of the Republic. Sheinbaum Pardo confirmed the dilemma that this publication revealed when making the decision: gender parity. «We have been working together since 2018. [...] The 'harfuchismo,' which has already sprouted in the 4T with its sights set on 2030, is placing its operators in the Federal Government to add credits and allies to its project. Esthela Damián is Harfuch's operator who, from the Legal Advisory, will dialogue with opposition actors who do not view the Secretary's aspirations negatively, even if it is through Morena. Her relationship with the current President prospered naturally, and at that time, she appointed her as her private secretary, a position that Claudia on Thursday compared to 'almost Chief of Staff.' Damián quickly understood that her place was alongside the neomorenistas like Omar García Harfuch, and not with the 'Puros y Duros' of Brugada, Martí, and Díaz-Polanco, who view the movement with suspicion. She is a Mexico City political operator with a heavy past outside the 4T and obradorismo, and close to opposition formations like the PRI and Citizen's Movement, for which she was a mayoral candidate in Venustiano Carranza in 2015. This is what they fear in the Government of CDMX, who are doing the same work of gathering friends in the states for the Brugada 2030 project, without losing control of the capital in 2027, for which Harfuch will also fight with profiles that Esthela Damián will approve. The President was facing a replacement of the same gender if she did not want to make a third or fourth change. 'I wanted it to be a woman, that is very important, because I do not want to move away from parity. A bitter rival of Julio César Moreno, the cacique in the demarcation. Due to the poor turnout, Morena considers that 'the destabilization by Generation Z failed.' Now both are within the 4T through the pragmatists of Morena, who in the capital opened their doors in exchange for their support for Sheinbaum for the Head of Government in 2018. Then, Esthela is going to do an excellent job.'
