#Claudia Sheinbaum

[holdouthepalmofyourhand]

Whatever people say, to me it IS a big deal that we have our first ever woman president and that she's leftish leaning (as much left as possible in a place with a dying left in general).

A lot of people went to vote and she won by a landslide, so this is definitely the will of the mexican people.

[errolluck]

Dear Americans and people outside Mexico: Please stop.

I have seen many posts of people outside Mexico saying: Congrats, Mexico! Claudia, a leftist feminist ambientalist jewish woman, is president! Take notes US!

Meanwhile, you go out in the streets in Mexico today and no one is celebrating. No one. The streets are empty, everything feels sad and hopeless.

A lot of people didn't want her. Because we know what is going to happen.

Morena (her political group) is literally in every position of power. From senators, to city governors. They have EVERY SINGLE thing in the goverment.

You know how bad things are gonna get for us here? Do you know what she has allowed? What THEY have done to our country? All the shit we have been through because of them?

No, because you don't care. You haven't cared enough to research who this woman is really and just praise her without knowing a shit.

Because you have to make everything about you, don't you?.

"I can't believe Mexico has a woman president before US!"

"OMG, US take notes!"

"The US-"

Can you stop for a second and think outside of your bubble? Do you truly know who this woman is and what she has done to Mexico? Or you are just using this to talk about you and your own country and problems?

Please. Please do your research.

She is not your precious feminist ally.

She has denied multiple times the ongoing wave of violence against women in Mexico (11 women go missing A DAY). She has sent riot police to gas feminist protests.

Did you hear what I said?

11 WOMEN GO MISSING A DAY.

EVERY DAY 11 WOMEN NEVER COME BACK, ARE KILLED, ARE RAPED, ARE TORTURED, ARE GETTING FORGOTTEN WITHOUT LEAVING A TRACE. EVERYDAY.

And she denies this. She has denied MULTIPLE TIMES that the violence against women is at an all time high.

A feminist would denied that 11 mothers/sisters/daughters/aunts/girls/women/people are going missing PER DAY?

No. Because she doesn't fucking care.

She is no ambientalist.

She was more than happy to support the Tren Maya, a project AMLO, the former president, was hooked on making since the begining.

The issue?

DEFORESTATION. MASSIVE DEFORESTATION.

10 MILLION TREES HAVE BEEN CUT DOWN.

Entire natural spaces gone for a train that isn't even working and already is having problems.

Also, how can I forget this?

27 people died, 80 injured.

The line 12 (Linea 12) of the CDMX Metro collapsed. The structure and the entire transport had (and still are) been neglected by the city administration.

Guess who was in charge of CDMX at the time of the tragedy?

Exactly, Claudia Sheinbaum. What was she doing instead of sending resources and money to fix and mantain the Metro?

But political propaganda for herself, of course!

And even after that tragedy, there have been multiple issues and accidents in the metro. A fucking coworker of a family member was trapped in a wagon alongside multiple people for HOURS due to a malfuction of the metro. They weren't allowed to get out even if they were cooking alive due to the heat of being inside a closed wagon and police ordered them TO NOT FILM what was happening to them.

She is not a saint. She is not an icon. She is not someone you should praise.

FUCKING INFORM YOURSELF BEFORE TALKING.

Mexico is not USA. Get it? We don't have the same politics and issues you have, get that?

The entire world doesn't revolve around you. We aren't your argument to use, we aren't your little meme to fuck around with.

We are people that are tired. People that didn't want this. People that are upset, dissapointed, mad, hopeless.

My blog isn't a political place, so as a final note, I want to say this:

I want to be wrong. I really, really want to be fucking wrong.

I want my country, Mexico, to be ok. To be a better place to live.

I HOPE to be wrong and that things get better. For me, for my family, for my friends, for the millions of people that stay, study, work, breathe, live and love this country.

Claudia Sheinbaum, I really want to be wrong about you. Not because I love you, but because I love Mexico.

I don't have high hopes for the future, but I really, REALLY, want things to be better.

That's all I have to say for now.

Tomorrow is the mexican presidential election and we will certainly have our first woman president because the 2 leading candidates are women , it would be either Xochitl Galvez (from a coalition of the 2 main opposition parties PAN and PRI and the other one ) or Claudia Sheinbaum from Morena which means national regeneration movement (is the political party of the current president and also in coalition with other 2 parties nobody cares about),the polls suggests that it would probably be Claudia Sheinbaum who it's seen as a continuation of our current president policies but who knows..

Xochitl Galvez (the one on the left ) served as senator, also was mayor of one of the boroughs in Mexico City or Claudia Sheinbaum (the one on the right), also was mayor of one of the boroughs in mexico city and after that she was the first head of goverment of Mexico City

This elections also is the biggest in mexican history because 97 millon people are registered to vote and there are also local government elections in almost every city and we change all of the senate and congress seats so let's see what happens tomorrow, so yeah...

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS MY SECOND PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION HELP

Can USAmericans be normal about Jews FOR FIVE SECONDS?

So, for those not in the know, climate scientist and Nobel laureate, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo just won the Mexican presidency by a landslide, becoming the first woman president of Mexico (Her term doesn’t start until October, but whatever), and also apparently the first Jewish president of Mexico.

Her Jewishness is not noteworthy because Mexicans really don’t care about Jewishness unless they’re a particularly Antisemitic individual. You will not hear people talk about someone’s Jewishness as of its something that important to a person’s character the same way you’d hear people talk about Jews in the US. We literally couldn’t care less, Mexico is home to thousands of WWII Refugees from different background and thousands of SWAsian immigrants, people literally could not tell you who’s a Jew or not and probably don’t care either way. I only learned Sheinbaum was a Secular Jew via US and UK news, Mexican news did not consider it a relevant thing to report on.

So, while looking for English language news about her election to see what they think about her up north I came across swathes of antisemitic comments. I saw people using a menagerie of dog whistles, ��Jews are a rich secret elite” kind of comments, comments saying things along the lines of “Hmmm… Sheinbaum definitely sounds like a traditional Mexican surnames” and comments calling her a Zionist, despite her criticism of Israel’s crimes and the fact her government will join South Africa on its genocide lawsuit against Israel.

I just ask, why?

Why can’t USAmericans be normal about Jews?

Mexicans literally do not care

Who is this benefiting?

Sorry for the rant, I’m just deeply frustrated about this and needed to put it to words.

Mexico elects climate scientist as next president (Heatmap AM)

Mexico resoundingly elected Claudia Sheinbaum as its next president over the weekend. Sheinbaum, 61, is making headlines for becoming the country’s first female president, as well as its first Jewish leader, but she is also a climate scientist, and her landslide victory “could mark a turning point from the current administration’s pro-fossil fuel policies,” as Climate Home News explained. Sheinbaum studied physics and then received her doctorate in energy engineering. She spent four years at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab studying Mexico’s energy consumption, and had a brief stint on the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). She was tapped as secretary of the environment for Mexico City before being elected as the capital’s mayor in 2018. During her tenure she was an advocate for rooftop solar and better public transportation infrastructure.

On the presidential campaign trail, Sheinbaum promised to “accelerate the energy transition” by boosting wind and solar, installing new transmission lines, and improving the country’s hydropower stations. But she has also backed the “energy sovereignty” policies of her predecessor and mentor, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. He built an oil refinery, funneled support into an indebted state oil company, and failed to set a national net zero target. Under his leadership, private investment in renewable projects has slumped. Energy policy may be on Sheinbaum’s to-do list when she takes office in October, but tackling crime is likely to be top of the agenda.

Thomas Graham at The Guardian:

Claudia Sheinbaum has won a landslide victory to become Mexico’s first female president, inheriting the project of her mentor and outgoing leader, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, whose popularity among the poor helped drive her triumph. Sheinbaum, a climate scientist and former mayor of Mexico City, won the presidency with between 58.3% and 60.7% of the vote, according to a rapid sample count by Mexico’s electoral authority. The ruling coalition led by Sheinbaum’s Morena party was also on track for a possible two-thirds super-majority in both houses of Congress, which would allow the coalition to pass constitutional reforms without opposition support. The big win for Sheinbaum was consistent with polls throughout the campaign. The opposition candidate Xóchitl Gálvez conceded defeat after preliminary results showed her taking between 26.6% and 28.6% of the vote. Jorge Álvarez Máynez, the candidate of the centrist Movimiento Ciudadano, came in third with at least 9.9%. “For the first time in the 200 years of the republic I will become the first woman president of Mexico,” Sheinbaum told supporters to loud cheers of “president, president”. “We imagine a plural, diverse and democratic Mexico. Our duty is and will always be to look after each and every Mexican, without distinction.”

Victory for Sheinbaum is a major step for Mexico, a country known for its macho culture and home to the world’s second biggest Roman Catholic population, which for years pushed more traditional values and roles for women. She will also be the first person from a Jewish background to lead the country.

Sheinbaum is also the first woman to win a general election in the US, Mexico or Canada.

Mexico has elected its first female and Jewish President in history, as the majority of that nation’s voted for Claudia Sheinbaum from Morena. She beat Xóchitl Gálvez from PAN and Jorge Máynez from Movimiento Ciudadano (MC) to be Mexico’s President until the 2030 elections.

Mexico elects its presidents to a single 6-year term, and re-election is prohibited. 🇲🇽

Mexican mayor shot dead day after Sheinbaum’s presidential victory

The mayor of a city in western Mexico was assassinated on Monday, the regional government said. It came just 24 hours after Claudia Sheinbaum was elected as the first female president in the Latin American country.

The Michoacán state government condemned “the murder of the municipal president (mayor) of the city of Cotija, Yolanda Sánchez Figueroa,” the regional interior ministry said in a social media post.

The assassination of the female mayor came after Sheinbaum’s election victory offered hope for change in a country riven by widespread gender-based violence.

Sanchez, who was elected mayor in the 2021 election, was shot dead on a public road, local media reported. Authorities did not give details of the killing but said police had already launched an operation to apprehend the killers.

The politician was previously kidnapped last September while leaving a shopping centre in the city of Guadalajara in the state of Jalisco, which neighbours Michoacan. Three days later, the federal government said she was found alive.

According to local media reports, the kidnappers belonged to the powerful Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG), which allegedly threatened the mayor for opposing the criminal group’s takeover of her municipality’s police force.

Michoacán is famous for its tourist destinations and thriving agro-export industry, but is also one of the most violent states in the country due to the presence of extortion and drug trafficking gangs. In March, three farmers were killed by a bomb planted on a dirt road in Michoacán – just days after Mexico’s outgoing president admitted that an improvised explosive device had killed at least four soldiers in what he called a ‘trap’ probably set by a cartel.

So Claudia Sheinbaum won the election, it was about to happen and I'm kinda happy that we will have a woman president even though i don't like her,but i really hope she actually does something good for this country, that she tries not to be like amlo and not just a mere copy of him, and I really doubt that will happen because she did a LOT of bad this while she was the mexico city governor...
