The President had already marked the occasion earlier in the day during her regular morning press conference at the National Palace. There, she was presented with a cake, and her collaborators and allied communicators sang "Las Mañanitas," a traditional Mexican birthday song.
During the press conference, Sheinbaum also mentioned that she had not yet decided where she would watch the upcoming soccer match between Mexico and Czechia. The article also briefly touches upon her previous denial of information regarding Maru Campos being a CIA informant and her accusation that the PAN party subordinates itself to the U.S.
Thank you very much for all your messages. I share with you that today, my birthday, I am with my husband Jesús, enjoying a delicious red pozole, my favorite dish.
