Fabián Waldman recounts how 15 Milei supporters tried to mess with him after a heated interview.

1. 'Segurola y Habana' is an Argentine political commentary podcast featuring journalists reporting live from Congress and Casa Rosada during Javier Milei's administration. 2. Journalist Fabián Waldman appears for what hosts describe as his debut on the show, reporting from the Argentine Congress on the day of Milei's congressional opening address. 3. The episode's core argument is that Milei's congressional session exposed internal contradictions within both the ruling coalition and the opposition. 4. Waldman recounts being denied entry to Congress after arriving late, due to what he describes as an oppressive security operation managed by Milei's military house under a protocol called 'Vigencia.' 5. During his interview with Deputy César Almirón — a Corrientes legislator who was caught reading the labor reform bill aloud verbatim in a prior session — the segment ended acrimoniously, with Almirón refusing further questions. 6. Immediately afterward, roughly 15 Libertad Avanza supporters surrounded Waldman in the congressional corridors, chanting 'domado' (domesticated) until one adult screamed 'don't mess with my kids.' 7. Waldman describes the group as behaving like characters from A Clockwork Orange, and says colleagues Gabi Vulcano and Romina del Plan came to check on him after the incident. 8. The episode reveals that during Milei's televised congressional address, Karina Milei directed camera operators not to show Santiago Caputo, Gordo Dan, or the Peronist bench — an instruction confirmed by sources close to the broadcast. 9. Victoria Villarruel was briefly shown only when she was visibly mocking the Peronist bloc's reaction. 10. Waldman interviews Cordobese Deputy García Arezka, who gave quorum for the labor reform session but then voted against the bill, and Waldman presses him repeatedly on whether his presence effectively served the government's interests. 11. García Arezka defends his attendance by citing his bloc's role in removing Article 44, which he describes as 'inhumane,' but declines to acknowledge the logical contradiction Waldman identifies. 12. Waldman locates Fiscal Carlos Stornelli chatting with Deputy Justice Minister Sebastián Amerio in the congressional corridor — photographing the meeting and posting it to Twitter — after Milei mentioned Stornelli twice in his speech. 13. When Waldman asks Stornelli directly whether he would like to be Justice Minister, Stornelli says only: 'I won't comment on proposals that nobody has made' — without a flat denial. 14. Sources at the Casa Rosada told Waldman that morning that no formal offer had been extended to Stornelli, at least not within that official's knowledge. 15. Milei's repost of a message — written in Hebrew — requesting that Buenos Aires province be bombed is raised by Waldman; the original post was removed from Twitter, making the repost unverifiable in the feed but searchable. 16. The hosts debate whether Milei's combative speech — which ran nearly one hour forty minutes, nearly double what advisers predicted — reflects a psychotic break or calculated political theater, with Waldman answering 'a combination of both.' 17. After the session, legislators gathered at the Quinta de Olivos; Waldman reports no alcohol was served under the Buenos Aires zero-tolerance law, only sandwiches, canapés, and Monster Energy drinks. 18. The episode is conversational and fast-paced, moving between Waldman's field reports and studio banter with hosts Julia and Werner across multiple recorded interview clips. 19. Argentine politics followers and those tracking Milei's first full congressional year, press freedom tensions, and judicial appointments will find this episode useful. 20. Listeners without background in Argentine political factions, legislative procedure, or the Stornelli-Cuadernos case will likely find the references opaque.
