Is Raúl Cervantes collaborating with the new government?

The former Attorney General, Raúl Cervantes, was seen walking around the National Palace on Monday, he was smiling while on his way to Carlos Urzúa's office, the Finance Minister. We've been told that the former PRI senator, who led a large part of the investigation of bribes from Odebrecht to PEMEX officials during Peña Nieto's administration, was discreet when he entered the headquarters. We've been reminded that Cervantes presented his resignation in October 2017, along with a message that made it clear that the Odebrecht investigation was about to end and that the future Attorney General could file the lawsuits , nevertheless, his successor, Alberto Elías Beltrán , didn't file any lawsuits and no PEMEX former official has been charged. Is Cervantes collaborating on this case?

Marko Cortés and his dubious plan

We've been told that the PAN leader, Marko Cortés, is hoping that those who haven't decided their vote could save the elections in Baja California and Puebla because these are his first elections as the president of the political party and he doesn't want to lose or arrive in second place. Mainly because these are two emblematic states that have been governed by the PAN for years and if they lose, it would mean their national demise. Also, if the PAN loses the election , he will have a lot to explain because several governors supported him during the internal election are now expecting grim results. The bad news is, that Cortés seems to be unaware of, that it seems easier to win the lottery than winning the votes of the undecided .
