The Argentine judiciary suspended a decree issued by President Javier Milei that eliminated a public holiday for state employees, a move aligned with his campaign against what he terms the "cult of statism." The suspension was ordered by Judge Moira Fullana. In political developments, Milei's candidate in Rosario, Juan Pedro Aleart, accused the Kirchnerist candidate Juan Monteverde of attempting to conceal his ties to Cristina Kirchner. President Milei also made a public appearance on a streaming program with his dog Conan, whom he referred to as his "son," and announced his attendance at the upcoming Derecha Fest cultural event in Córdoba on July 22, alongside notable figures such as Agustín Laje and Nicolás Marquez. Additionally, Milei pledged to donate one million pesos to an animal shelter. Meanwhile, former minister Axel Kicillof, associated with Cristina Kirchner, criticized Milei's government, stating it does not defend Argentina. Kicillof also defended a controversial judicial ruling related to YPF, calling it a "legal absurdity," and revealed he consulted artificial intelligence to support his political stance. In response, AI Grok attributed Argentina's financial obligations to Kicillof. Furthermore, Milei filed a formal defamation complaint against journalist Julia Mengolini for injurious statements about him and his sister Karina. Mengolini claimed to have confronted a libertarian in the street over alleged incestuous remarks, but no video evidence has surfaced to corroborate her account.
