Patricia Bullrich posts video amid Libertad Avanza rift

Senator Patricia Bullrich, head of the Libertad Avanza bloc in Argentina’s Senate, published a musical video set to the tango “Se dice de mí”. The clip, featuring AI‑generated animation, shows Bullrich navigating a maze of possible future roles – president, vice‑president or Buenos Aires chief‑of‑government – and includes references to fellow politicians.

The video was released after Bullrich publicly disagreed with President Javier Milei over the withdrawal of judge María Verónica Michelli’s candidacy for a federal court. Bullrich announced she would not support the withdrawal, invoking a “conscience objection”, and earlier offered to resign as bloc leader, a move Milei rejected. Critics within the libertarian coalition have questioned her abstention on the Michelli vote and her broader political positioning ahead of the 2027 elections. Bullrich affirmed her commitment to Milei’s agenda while emphasizing adherence to her personal principles.

The episode highlights growing internal tensions in the libertarian coalition and Bullrich’s attempt to frame herself as a key player in upcoming electoral contests.
