Is there a rebellion among members of the “armies of heaven,” as followers of the libertarian leader commonly identify themselves?

In separate private meetings, Milei pledged that the alleged internal unrest was “a function of populism” and would focus on efforts to strengthen oversight for the second round. CNN reached out to an official Sergio Massa campaign spokesperson for advice on the economy minister’s anti-environmental libertarian accusations, but he did not respond. A related detail is that the same spokesperson distributed one of the two documents that revealed internal criticism at La Libertad Avanza.

According to National Vice President-elect Manuel Quinter, one of the main axes of that meeting was exploration.

Regarding efforts to oversee the process, the elected member of the National Assembly concluded: “We are working as if we are failing.” Even according to Quintar, political leaders were more concerned with tracking votes at the polls than flying them. “No one left the place, there was no breakdown,” he summed up.
