Vaya Con Muñoz 7.20.19

In Vaya Con Muñoz

Lillian Torres and I talk about the corruption crisis in Puerto Rico, in which Gov. Ricardo Rossello is facing mounting calls for his resignation, a stance never before seen in Puerto Rico, for spearheading an administration laced with corruption scandals.
Also, we play the song by Bad Bunny, Residente and Ieana Cabra Joglar:”Afiliando Los Cuchillos.” Says NPR report: “Amid the most crucial political crisis to hit Puerto Rico in its modern history, three Puerto Rican musicians have released a protest song that is spreading across the island as fast as news of the next demonstration against the local government.”
“The song is a blistering, expletive-laden take down of Governor Ricardo Rosselló and his administration delivered with the fury and energy that is fueling the massive demonstrations that have been taking place in the capital city of San Juan in response to leaked text messages between Rosello and others in his administration. According to NPR’s Adrian Florido, the thread of the text conversations, which were published by the Center for Investigative Journalism in Puerto Rico on July 13, contain evidence of homophobic, derogatory and misogynistic slurs as well as jokes about the dead bodies that were collected at a government facility before and after Hurricane Maria in September 2017.”
