Overview
- In mid-June Adorni filed a delayed sworn asset declaration with the Oficina Anticorrupción that shows a jump in declared wealth to about 944.6 million pesos and admits omitted assets worth roughly $500,000 including cash, properties and cryptocurrency.
- Opposition blocs in the Chamber of Deputies have requested a special session for June 23 to interpellate Adorni and consider a motion of censure that could lead to removal if absolute majorities are reached.
- Removal is procedurally difficult because censure requires 129 votes in the Chamber of Deputies and 37 votes in the Senate, so success depends on whether dissenting coalition lawmakers break with the government.
- Adorni has not appeared before the Senate since taking office in November 2025 and has said he will attend only in July despite Article 101’s monthly appearance requirement, while the Oficina Anticorrupción holds his contested declaration.
- President Javier Milei has publicly defended Adorni but private splits are growing inside the governing coalition and some allies have floated a temporary leave or removal, a dynamic that could widen the credibility crisis and reshape the cabinet’s stability.
