Overview

• The PRI formally asked Senator Adán Augusto López Hernández to leave the Senate’s coordination board over his appointment of Hernán Bermúdez Requena, who faces an arrest warrant for organized crime, extortion and kidnapping.
• Senate President Gerardo Fernández Noroña blocked debate on the motion and derided the PRI’s U.S. denouncements as “hechas con las patas.”
• Alejandro “Alito” Moreno fired back by calling Noroña “pendejo” and accusing Morena of sheltering narcopoliticians.
• Senate rules deem the Junta de Coordinación Política post non-resignable, leaving the ethical demand unresolved and no resignation in sight.
• The escalating insults underscore deepening partisan polarization over legislative norms and organized crime allegations in Mexico’s upper chamber.
