MILEI TOOK OVER THE PORT OF USHUAIA AND TODAY HE WILL PUT IT AT TRUMP'S SERVICE
Before meeting Donald Trump in Davos, President @JMilei suspended the authorization of the Port of Ushuaia and ordered its administrative intervention, so that it would be managed directly by the national government.
He is taking it away from the Province of Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica, and South Atlantic Islands.
The measure was adopted by a simple resolution of the National Ports and Navigation Agency, which, under number 4/2026, was published today in the Official Gazette.
Milei will offer the port of Ushuaia to the President of the United States for military and commercial use.
In fact, among the grounds for the resolution he used to illegally seize the port, Milei stated that "its location in the South Atlantic, south of the continent, and its proximity to Antarctica make the port a key point for Antarctic supply and scientific campaigns, as well as a port of strategic importance for the Argentine Republic, especially in the custody of its southern waters and territories."
He added: "The Port of Ushuaia is fundamental not only because of its strategic and geopolitical importance, but also because of its role in logistics, regional trade, and tourism."
Milei's decision sets a reckless precedent against the provinces and against the national interest.
All governors should react.
After internal tensions within the libertarian ranks over the design of the agency's structure and the appointment of officials, the government is ready to create the Migration Security Agency. Although adjustments to the decree are still pending, the former mayor of Tres de Febrero, Diego Valenzuela, is set to head the migration control agency. Although its functions would be limited to border crossings, some sectors anticipate that it could be an “Argentine ICE.”
According to sources familiar with the creation of the new agency, the agency's mission will be to control border crossings in order to control migration flows. The agency seeks to combat organized crime and “intensify” the deportation of foreigners who commit crimes. For its part, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has similar functions: it is responsible for enforcing immigration laws, although it does so “at, within, and beyond the borders,” as they themselves explain.
Milei's ICE got off to a slow start in Villa Celina: “We detected 16 foreigners in an irregular situation.”
The situations of 385 foreign citizens were checked, of whom 16 had neither documents nor authorized residence, so they were ordered to regularize their situation or face expulsion.
Agree with this comment to a Sott article (my emphasis):
Question: Is all this ICE activity for the roundup of illegal immigrants or is it practice and testing systems for a future which is coming down the pipe for all US citizens? and very probably the rest of the western world.
Our economies have 2 or 3 years at most before they implode. What happens then?
Milei is impoverishing our troops, shutting down the military industry, and groveling to foreign powers. He is handing over our sovereignty on a silver platter.
There were warning signs from the very beginning. When Milei was elected, I remarked to an acquaintance that he'll be selling Argentina and its people because he liberalized the selling of land to foreigners. The waving of the six points star, licking the wall with a silly hat were other signs of what was to come. In the end: "Who's the more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?" -Obi-Wan Kenobi
