@jacobin A question raised by AMLO's actions: did they apply to constitutionally autonomous bodies like the Bank of Mexico and the electoral institute? The Mexican Supreme Court ultimately ruled that those institutions were exempt. Result: they escaped the president's attempted purge 7/x — PolitiTweet.org

@jacobin The result of this abrupt unilateral salary cut across the top of the civil service was just what you might predict: the competent and honest managers quit because they lived on their salaries and had options elsewhere. The dishonest and incompetent stayed. 6/x — PolitiTweet.org

@jacobin But the failure of the salary purge did leave behind the talking point: senior people at the INE do now earn more than the president. It's not princely - salaries top out at about $150,000 US per year - but it's enough to attract competent people who will live on their pay. 8/x — PolitiTweet.org
