Frank, direct, unambiguous exchange. In his appearance in the Congress of Mexico City, the Secretary of Government, César Cravioto, responded to criticism, defined priorities, set a route and even took time to issue advice “without bullshit or bullshit.”
It was not a session of low blows or rudeness, but confirmation of governance sustained in the conversation, even with those who think differently. That is, basically, the same logic that the Head of Government, Clara Brugada, imprints on her management style.
The capital’s politics has its oldest tradition and its newest challenge in dialogue. Cravioto remembered it, sometimes with irony, other times with serenity, when he responded to opposition criticism. To the Citizen Movement deputy, Patricia Urriza, who accused a lack of planning for the 2026 World Cup, the Secretary replied mischievously: “The best place to watch the World Cup is going to be CDMX, it is not going to be Monterrey or Guadalajara. So much so that the governor of Nuevo León (Samuel García) is here, learning from what we do.”
In his networks, a couple of hours before, the state leader argued his stay in the national capital with “because the cheese is broken here,” a northern expression to define the place where important decisions are made.
In essence, Cravioto’s appearance was a log of governability in its most philosophical meaning: the art of maintaining order without stifling plurality. From Plato to Jürgen Habermas, dialogue has been understood as the heart of public life. In The Republicthe Athenian positioned politics as a collective search for the common good, where the word is a vehicle of understanding. For the German, centuries later, it was the space where decisions derive from “communicative action”, not from imposition.
Governance in the capital is not explained by the absence of conflict, but by its civilized conduct. The Brugada administration has opted for inter-institutional tables that, more than coordinating, integrate visions. There, for example, operations for massive events are defined, with the presence of Civil Protection, Citizen Security, the C5.
When Cravioto spoke of a close Government, he referred to a method, and explained it like this: “The head of Government is a ruler who is very close to the people and that makes my job easier.”
The dialogue is not limited to speeches, it has concrete expressions in priority public policies: the Cabinet for Missing Persons, the General Development Plan, the fight against dispossession, the regulation of informal trade.
In Donceles there was irony, but not sarcasm; reply, without humiliation. “Honestly, the opposition has a lot to learn from the Fourth Transformation,” Cravioto said on the bench in the Congress tribune, not in a tone of challenge, but of invitation.
