Edile
The last dramatic episodes in the Middle East, guilty of the obnoxious behavior of Donald Trump, supposedly a server of the American citizens, is not an isolated case in the actual international political scene.
Giorgia Meloni, after being defeated in a Referendum to change articles in the Italian constitution referring to the justice system and its independence, she is cleaning up her team of government, especially very controversial figures that put in question from the beginning the ideal of change Meloni wanted to use as a fighting flag symbol. She understood the people start to wake up and clearly point at her government the fact that it is more of the corrupt and incapable politicians that were in charge since the last government of Alcide de Gasperi.
In Argentina, Milei can’t hide that he was the open face of a fraudulent cryptocurrency operation, including the 3% commission his sister Karina requested that was recorded for the purchases of state hospital medicines.
In America, Trump will openly request provisions, presents, etc, and the MAGA voters will proclaim that he is the most genial personified of the USA pride.
We are far of the times of Marco Vipsanio Agrippa, the EDILE of Rome, a person that was loyal to his charge and empire. After defeating Marco Antonio and Cleopatra, putting peace in Sicily to get control of the production of wheat flour for the daily diet of the empire, fighting next to his beloved friend Ottaviano who later became emperor of Rome with the name of Augustus, who after his military service nominated Agrippa as EDILE!
Agrippa took over the maintenance of the 400,000 km of streets of the empire, created public baths for the proper cleaning and preserving of health for the citizens; working for Rome was his only meaning in life. This must be the example for public service, not this pathological performance of our times that is now part of our “normalized” realty.
