Overview
- Gerardo Fernández Noroña said the Permanent Commission will take up the case on Wednesday in the political agenda segment, calling opposition support for Téllez irresponsible but acknowledging no crime is evident.
- Sheinbaum stated it is false that her government seeks Téllez’s desafuero or imprisonment and added the senator can request security protection if she feels at risk.
- Morena leaders continue to brand Téllez’s Fox News remarks as “traición a la patria,” while an online Change.org petition for her removal has reportedly surpassed 293,000 signatures.
- PAN leaders rallied behind Téllez’s free speech; PRI chief Alejandro “Alito” Moreno voiced solidarity, even as PRI floor leader Rubén Moreira criticized inviting U.S. involvement as a risk to sovereignty.
- Téllez says she called for cooperation, not intervention, and alleges threats from the presidency; Sheinbaum counters that the senator is victimizing herself and that disputes should be settled in Mexico, with scrutiny heightened by the Fox interview hosted by Rachel Campos-Duffy, whose husband serves in Trump’s cabinet.
