^ Well, she does seem to have plenty of experience with that last part, in general... 
Kirchner has drafted plans to disband and replace the entire intelligence agency over the recent assassination, which she has now said does not look like suicide to her.

If that happens the new agency is either going to be full of kirchnerist yes men (like most government-owned stuff here), who are going to be hell for the next president if s/he happens to be part of the opposition (it already happened in 2001, although that guy was terrible whitout help). Or it's going to be the same agency with a new name and some "cosmetic" changes.

When did Kirchner stop wearing black in all her public appearances?

Causing freakouts over sourcing since 2018
The murdered prosecutor had drafted a request for Kirchner's arrest. How thick is the plot now?
Meanwhile, Kirchner's has stuck her foot in her mouth on Twitter.
... She's been unravelling for a while, now. But, it's seriously picked up the pace, recently. -_-

Well, Cristina Fernández of Kirchner has been indicted for alleged cover up and noncompliance of public servant duties (no idea if that is an acurate translation in meaning of "incumplimiento del deber de funcionario público). There where also indicted the foreign minister Héctor Timerman, deputy Andrés Larroque and Luis D'Elía.
Google Translate comes back with "breach of duty of a public official", so...
For clarification, the indictment comes back to the allegations that Iranian agents blew up the Jewish Center in Buenos Aires in 1994

Kirchner is off the hook - case dismissed!

Seems as apt a description of the period as anything i've seen.
BBC: Argentina threatens to prosecute oil companies in the Falklands
The officials said companies active there were operating illegally in Argentine territory.
The announcement came as Argentina marked the 33rd anniversary of the war with the UK over the islands.
Earlier this week, three British oil exploration companies announced new oil and gas finds north of the islands.

UK spied on Argentina over alleged new attempt to take Falklands – Snowden leak
Britain Used Spy Team to Shape Latin American Public Opinion on Falklands
Britain and Argentina summon each other's ambassadors in Falklands row
Basically, the articles say UK spied on Argentina for fear of an attack or of public opinion changing in favour of Argentina in the Malvinas/Falklands issue. The spying is said to have begun around 2008, which is when the Argentine goverment started aligning with Venezuela. Unasur also came up then and international opinion could maybe veer towards Argentina.
The ones that first reported on the spying were TN (Todo Noticias), an Argentine news channel part of Clarin Group, the media corporation the goverment has this all out battle with, which is maybe why the goverment took about a week to react to the news.
All in all, I think the current mood is 'what else is new?'.
I'm hesitant to condemn London for trying to gather information regarding a potential attack on it's territory.
The other stuff is pretty dirty, but pretty typical.
Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects.
Yeah, it's not like that stuff about the NSA spying on the German government. We're talking here about two nations that have been at war with each other within living memory and between whom the rhetoric is still flying.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
A procrastination in of itself
Sounds like GCHQ doing what it's meant to do for once, I mean really, spying on a hostile government that constantly making noise about how it should own your land, isn't that kinda what intelligence agencies are for?
What's Snowden's logic for leaking this, how in any way is it doggy or questionable?
Also I love how you have to get two thirds of the way though the article before they mention that the people whoa actually live on the Falklands have decided overwhelmingly to stay with the UK. They also never mention that the calls by the Argentina government for 'negotiations' have been accepted plenty of times, on the condition that the islanders be the ones negotiated with.

Given the timing of most of his other leaks, I'd say it's because people are talking about something other than him and how much of a martyred hero he is.

From someone who was ruling it to be a suicide and then back to murder again, all she is doing is to make her look worse every time she opens her mouth to make any statement.
