Confronting the prospect of tough US tariffs, Claudia Sheinbaum is doubling down on the agenda of her predecessor
Since she took over as Mexico’s president at the start of October, Claudia Sheinbaum has maintained one of the most symbolic innovations of her predecessor Andrés Manuel López Obrador — the mañanera, or morning news conference. His version was long, and heavy on folksy charm. Hers is shorter and more direct.
“Together we are going to transform the judiciary, truly from the bottom, from the people of Mexico,” she said at a recent rally in Zacatecas. “What is democracy? The power of the people by the people and for the people.” Despite warnings from the US government, business leaders and lawyers that it would damage judicial independence and democracy, Sheinbaum pressed ahead, even ignoring an order from a federal judge to pause.
