"There is very little that is exercised, it accumulates and accumulates more and more and there you have it, it is a little guard, so it is not going to affect the workers, I said it yesterday."
"How is it that they have Juárez there in the SCJN if in fact they are acting against the republican austerity that President Juárez put into practice, who said that the public servant, let's see if you put it, with that the lawyers, sometimes you have to read the article to them so they can find their way.

"In the event that the Chamber of Deputies decides on this, although the conservatives, well I can't say that anymore, well the reactionaries, are saying...For what 15 billion pesos? They can say that in Congress, but it would help a lot, for example, for scholarships for students from poor families because only at the high school level are the scholarships universal, that is, there are already three programs that are universal, senior citizens are for everyone (. ..)".
