A valid question, especially since Adán Augusto views campaigns as essentially economic projects. On the other hand, senators close to Clara Brugada expressed the head of government's discomfort with the senator's virtual entry into the electoral affairs of Mexico City (CDMX). A question that came up at various tables: if Adán Augusto is, as mentioned, in the crosshairs of the United States, is it wise to put him in charge of decisive campaigns in 2027? This intervention hides the widespread perception within the ruling party: Morena's situation in CDMX in 2027 will be complex, not so much due to the opposition but due to the course of the capital's government. The new coordinator of the Morena senators, Ignacio Mier, made a first gesture within the caucus: to several of his peers who called to congratulate him on his promotion, he told them to also call Adán Augusto López Hernández to express their support during this difficult moment. A gesture aimed at internal concord that was accompanied by certain directives that anticipate deep changes: Mier does not want to be a mere concessionaire of Adán Augusto's influence, but rather to impose his own leadership. Becoming a central actor in the ruling constellation is the only thing that can preserve Mier from being replaced again by the former governor of Tabasco in the event of a crisis. This week, according to sources in his office, Mier will analyze possible changes in strategic commissions, which will then be elevated to the National Palace for a final decision. The senator has asked his close associates not to mistreat the senators closest to his predecessor, especially the compact group formed by Andrea Chávez, Oscar Cantón, Carlos Lomelí, and Cuauhtémoc Ochoa. This concord will go hand in hand with changes in the Chief of Staff's office and in the administration of the Senate's funds, a very prickly issue because there was discontent in the caucus with the resource management decided by Adán Augusto and communicated, not always in the best ways, by Senator Chávez. Adán's departure on this Monday fueled rumors and backroom dealings within the caucus.
Power Shift in Morena Following Adán Augusto's Departure
A complex situation has emerged within the ruling Morena party following the resignation of key figure Adán Augusto López. The new faction coordinator, Ignacio Mier, is attempting to consolidate his power and reconcile rival factions, preparing for changes in the Senate leadership.
