Trump counters Sheinbaum's latest remarks with a rebuttal: Recap of Wednesday's exchange

Mexico City's President Claudia Sheinbaum Maintains Strong Stance

Mexico City's President Claudia Sheinbaum has been keeping a close eye on the digital landscape, frequently checking her phone at midday. According to reports, she receives a summary of media, social media, and political commentary three times a day.

In a recent development, President Sheinbaum confirmed the renewal of the gasoline price cap deal, with regular gasoline (Magna) capped at no more than 24 pesos. This voluntary pact, which 98% of gas station owners across Mexico are participating in, aims to provide relief to motorists. She also advised motorists not to pay more than the capped price.

The gasoline price cap deal, which took effect earlier in the year, has been a point of interest for many. President Sheinbaum stated that there will always be a gas station that has signed the agreement.

Recently, President Sheinbaum publicly rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's claim that she is "scared" of Mexico's drug cartels. Initially, she declined to comment on Trump's remarks but later chose to offer a public rejection.

In a more positive note, President Sheinbaum thanked Trump for the nice things he said about her in his interview with The Daily Caller.

José "Pepe" Merino, the head of the federal government's Digital Transformation Agency, described President Sheinbaum as "a voracious and critical consumer of information." This characterisation could be attributed to her meticulous analysis of graphs, a trait that she is known for.

President Sheinbaum, a former professor and researcher at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) with a background in physics and energy engineering, has been making headlines for her decisive actions and analytical approach.

In other news, President Sheinbaum met with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the National Palace on Wednesday morning. However, no new facts were mentioned regarding President Donald Trump or the meeting between President Sheinbaum and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

The person described as the head of the Digital Transformation Authority of the German Federal Government who called President Claudia Sheinbaum a "voracious and critical consumer of information" is Karsten Wildberger.
