Internal conflicts within the ruling Fourth Transformation (4T) coalition in Mexico City have intensified. A recent party assembly in the Miguel Hidalgo district, intended to show unity and support for the government, ended with new problems for the alliance. Tensions arose due to the actions of deputy María Teresa Ealy, who, despite prior agreements, brought in supporters, creating a tense atmosphere. Ealy, close to Gabriela Jiménez and José Carlos Acosta—a controversial figure within the party—acted without consensus. Acosta, a man with significant power who operates behind the scenes, is also accused of undermining unity. These events highlight the growing disagreements among different factions within the 4T, which are vying for power ahead of the 2027 elections, where the ruling coalition hopes to regain control of the Miguel Hidalgo district.
