When questioned about the potential reaction of Secretary-General Karina Milei, President Milei's sister and Adorni's political mentor, to her ultimatum, Bullrich professed ignorance. "I have no idea," she responded when asked if the President's sister was displeased with her. She deliberately chose not to elaborate further on the Adorni case, stating, "I don't want to revisit a topic that I've already addressed, defended, and been explicit about. Everyone knows what I said and what I think."

No tengo ni idea

Bullrich made these remarks in Villa Lugano during a tour shortly before a Cabinet meeting. She was accompanied by Buenos Aires legislator Pilar Ramรญrez, a close associate of Karina Milei. Despite this proximity, Bullrich avoided discussing her relationship with the President's sister post her comments on Adorni. "I have no idea [if Karina is angry], I will see her now at the Cabinet meeting and surely we will talk," she commented. She also downplayed suggestions that her tour was linked to a potential candidacy for mayor of Buenos Aires in 2027, stating her focus remains on her current senatorial responsibilities.
