Wow. I liked her before, but I like her more ... ALREADY!
She's made my wottagal list.

In addition to increasing funding for Mexico’s existing popular social programs, Sheinbaum has approved two new social programs.
The first is a universal scholarship for all public school students, offering financial support to all families with kids in public school, regardless of income level. The goal of this is to prevent kids from leaving school due to economic hardships.
The second is the aforementioned reduction in the pension age for women from 65 to 60, women aged 63 and 64 have already begun receiving their pension cards.
Sheinbaum also signed a decree to create the Rosario Castellanos university, which will offer free education to 330,000 students across the country. She will also offer the first government support of the schools of the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature in 40 years, as well as the schools of the National Institute of Anthropology and History, also promising to increase teachers salaries.
I should be skeptical of this.
And in fact I am.
I mean, look at the so-called 'ceasefire' with Hezbollah. Who's been violating that since Day 1, and even before that?
