Overview
- Salvador Ramírez stepped down as communications coordinator for Morena’s caucus in Mexico’s Chamber of Deputies, saying he sought to avoid tying his personal remarks to the group.
- On a Milenio Televisión debate, he said Charlie Kirk “received a taste of his own medicine,” a comment widely interpreted as minimizing the killing.
- Christopher Landau, a senior U.S. State Department official and former ambassador to Mexico, criticized the broadcast’s tenor and said consular steps would target foreigners who glorify violence.
- Milenio publicly distanced the network from the panelist’s statements and apologized to viewers, emphasizing that guests’ opinions do not represent the outlet.
- Ramírez posted an on-camera apology and said he participated as a political analyst rather than a party representative, and reports noted Landau had not reacted to the apology or resignation.
