“That’s what killed him”: the betrayals and attacks that pushed Verástegui out of the far-right game

In February 2026, Milenio reported on the political downfall of Verástegui, a prominent figure in Mexico's far-right movement. The article highlights a series of betrayals and attacks from within his own faction and rival groups that ultimately forced him out of the far-right political arena. These internal conflicts weakened Verástegui's influence and disrupted the cohesion of the far-right movement in Mexico. The developments signal potential shifts in the country's political dynamics, particularly within nationalist and conservative circles.
