Overview

  • Lower-house committees approved a tie-breaking mechanism by parliamentary block size to break a 14–14 stalemate and reappoint leadership of the $LIBRA investigative commission.
  • The full Chamber of Deputies is now set to vote on the measure that would extend the commission’s mandate through November and unlock hearings into Milei’s alleged role.
  • Argentine and U.S. prosecutors continue parallel criminal probes into the $LIBRA collapse, with recent court actions by prosecutor Jorge Taiano and judge María Servini.
  • In Mexico, the federal government transferred 26 alleged cartel figures, including Servando “La Tuta” Gómez and Juan Carlos Félix, to U.S. custody after authorities said they maintained criminal networks from prison.
  • Protests by retirees in Buenos Aires remain active with reports of police repression and photojournalist detentions fueling renewed concerns over civil liberties.
