Overview

  • Milei’s first official trip to Chaco on July 5 coincided with the inauguration of Portal del Cielo, an 18,000-seat evangelical auditorium financed entirely by its congregation without debt.
  • He defined social justice as “envy with rhetoric” and branded it a capital sin during a speech that blended religious imagery with his libertarian critique.
  • Using biblical references, Milei portrayed the State as a representation of evil and blamed socialism for replacing work and truth with idleness and lies.
  • He delivered a veiled critique of the Peronist opposition by declaring “por suerte están empezando a caer presos,” a tacit reference to Cristina Kirchner.
  • The ceremony also marked the launch of La Libertad Avanza’s legislative campaign, mobilizing evangelical networks and allies like Governor Leandro Zdero for the October elections.
