Argentine Lawmaker Deletes Viral Christmas Video After 'Resurrection' Mix-Up

The gaffe deepened scrutiny of Juliana Santillán’s public messaging within La Libertad Avanza.

Overview

  • In a holiday video, Juliana Santillán wished a “Feliz Nochebuena” and a “Navidad de resurrección,” conflating Christmas with Easter.
  • The post amassed more than 400,000 views within hours as users shared explainer links and X added a community note clarifying the difference between the two holy days.
  • She removed the video after a wave of criticism, though copies continued to circulate widely online.
  • Recorded in Mar del Plata, the message paired seasonal greetings with a favorable review of the libertarian government’s year under President Javier Milei.
  • The incident follows a June TV exchange where she misstated the basic family basket at 360,000 pesos despite INDEC placing it above one million for a four‑person household.
