Vidal shares meme mocking Aníbal Fernández after 'denunciation factory' accusation

Argentine politician María Eugenia Vidal reignited a political feud by sharing a meme mocking former Chief of Staff Aníbal Fernández. This action followed accusations that Fernández operated a "denunciation factory" targeting the PRO party.

Vidal, a former governor of Buenos Aires province, posted an image of Fernández with a humorous expression on social media. The meme had previously been used to mock the Peronist legislator. The post referenced a judicial declaration by Sergio Schoklender, a key figure in the "Sueños Compartidos" housing program.

Schoklender testified that Fernández allegedly funded a university center through a subsidy. The center's purpose, according to Schoklender, was to file new complaints each month against PRO party officials in the capital. This alleged scheme was revealed during an ongoing trial investigating suspected fraud against the state.

The resurfacing of these accusations and Vidal's response mark a revival of the intense rivalry between the two politicians. Their conflict dates back to the 2015 campaign for the governorship of Buenos Aires, a race Vidal ultimately won.

It's set up like a university research center that received a subsidy from Aníbal Fernández that went directly to Barcesat. Barcesat's job was to file new complaints every month against some PRO official, in the Capital, of course.
