MORENA Party Scandal: Senator Accused of Indirect Criticism of Leader

Mexican Senator Félix Salgado Macedonio from the MORENA party has found himself at the center of a political scandal. His initial statements about the party's nepotism policy were interpreted as indirect criticism of the national leader, Luisa María Alcalde. The dispute centers on the timeline for implementing anti-nepotism measures and their application to specific politicians. In response to the controversy, Salgado Macedonio clarified his position, stating that his words were taken out of context. He emphasized that he was discussing the concept of nepotism in general, not making specific accusations against individuals. The senator also expressed his full respect and support for Luisa María Alcalde, calling her 'my national president' and noting that he is barred from participating in internal polls by party statute. This incident has once again highlighted internal divisions within MORENA, raising questions about the party's unity ahead of the 2027 elections.
