In Detroit, it's said that previously, the free candidates from Vamos and Juan Diego called the distribution of food, toys, and other items cheap proselytism and accused their political opponents of living off the misery and needs of others. But now that they are doing the same, they call it a 'visit to the district.' How times change! It's said that the boxes that Juan Harvard and Vamos were using for proselytism in San Miguelito had the Amazon logo; a wit wonders why they couldn't buy those things in Panama to help the local economy, instead of giving their money to companies from Gringolandia. It's lamentable, truly, when idiocy overrides reason. A baseball fan laments that the pro-Pérez president of the Fedebeis, in his speech in Colón, did not highlight the work on the Mariano Bula stadium as a great achievement of President Mulino and his government, who promised to finish a stalled project and delivered, as he has with other works found halfway done. I'm told that scandals and santeria have returned to a street in Cerro Viento. Reactions are expected from La Cuevita today. From the ghetto, I'm told that the 'representative' of Tocumen, the girl Arielis from Vamos, has a brother who collaborates with her, but he is on the payroll of the Pueblo Nuevo Community Board, led by 'El Barbudo.' By the way, from which pocket or bank account did the money come? Roberto, the vice president, blocked a follower who called him out for holding 11 different public offices since 1992 to the present, under various governments. Banks argue that if the Executive sanctions this law, the cost of loans will rise, making it harder for people to access credit, and they concluded that what 'Cocobolo' Cedeño and the deputies supporting this law seek is to reward the 'scoundrels' and 'sharpshooters.' The lamentable part is that they use minors to disrupt the peace of residents' rest. Today in the Assembly, a bill that seeks to professionalize the 'little ants' and other personnel involved in waste collection will be analyzed. This personnel needs proper training and better working conditions. Only 21 signatures were collected out of nearly 15,000 needed. It pained him when he was elegantly told: 'How you love to suck on the state's teat!' I assure you that the case is already with the Public Prosecutor's Office. I hear that Galloway and those promoting the Parallel Constituent Assembly, which they tried to sell as a presidential recall, are announcing a conference tomorrow at the Electoral Tribunal. I'm told that a certain 'Diabla' is the leader of a group of 'warlocks' who go to the ritual dressed in black, smelling of tobacco and rum.
