Gustavo Petro claimed that Abelardo had deceived Caldas, Risaralda, and Quindio by allowing, as he said, private interests to benefit from public goods in the coffee region. He maintained that the region should not limit the mobility of those who worked there and that he decided to remove the tolls when the concession contract expired, instead of extending it. Petro rejected what he attributed to the minister of the Char clan: that the State could not maintain the roads. He pointed out that most states in the world did so and that maintenance was cheaper with a larger extent of railroads. He also stated that in Colombia, concessions were financed with tolls, but the State paid concessions separately for construction. Additionally, he accused Abelardo of withdrawing funds from the Palestine airport and leaving it frozen again, as well as extending the road concession and maintaining tolls that, according to Petro, only enriched their owners. He added that turning labor products into income for corrupt individuals impoverished workers and the entire region. https://t.co/OpQYhP8vTf #Colombia #LibreMovilidad #Corrupción (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that the end of the 6x1 shift had already been approved, with two days of rest per week and a workload of up to 40 hours, without salary reduction. He said that Flávio Bolsonaro had signaled to entrepreneurs that, if elected president, he would advocate for changes to this rule. According to Manoel, the proposal supported by Bolsonaro provides for contracts based on hours worked, which could reduce the remuneration of those who worked fewer hours and eliminate the right to proportional vacation and 13th salary. He added that the two days off would not be guaranteed. Manoel also accused Bolsonaro of governing for the rich and large companies and wanting to hand Brazil over to the United States. In the end, he urged workers to mobilize against the senator's candidacy and defend power in the hands of the workers. #Trabalhadores #DireitosTrabalhistas #Eleições2024 (translated)

Nacho Montes de Oca wrote that Tesla and SpaceX stocks fell after a measure against Ukraine was announced, despite the success that, according to him, Elon Musk's flying car presentation had. He suggested that the declines could also be due to other events. According to Montes de Oca, the Italian government halted negotiations to contract Starlink services for $1.63 billion, amidst the controversy over the reliability of the service and repeated threats and incidents of signal cuts in Ukraine. He also noted that Germany had accelerated the development of its own constellation of sovereign military satellites. He added that Valérie Hayer, president of Renew Europe, and Andrius Kubilius, EU defense commissioner, had advocated for the urgent need for a European alternative to Starlink. The author stated that Democratic and Republican senators had sent a letter to the Defense Department's inspector general demanding an urgent investigation into the restrictions imposed on the network. He said this could affect SpaceX's contracts with the U.S. government, which he estimated at $29.68 billion. Of that total, he indicated, $8.05 billion corresponded to new military contracts awarded and based on Starshield, the company's military division. Montes de Oca maintained that Musk's accusations against Donald Trump and Trump's response— where he denied being responsible and also said he didn't believe Musk was responsible— had harmed the conglomerate's reputation. He attributed the drop in SpaceX's stocks to a loss of $28.6 billion for Musk. He also estimated that Tesla's decline between October 13 and 16, 2026, had reduced its market capitalization by between $35 billion and $38 billion. To those losses, he added the revenues that, in his opinion, could cease to be obtained from the Italian contract and agreements with other countries interested in the system. Finally, he noted that it remained to be seen whether Musk would maintain a strategy that, as he wrote, imitated Trump's aggressive stance towards Ukraine and Volodymyr Zelensky, or if investor pressure would lead him to change his decision. He also stated that support for Vladimir Putin had a high and self-destructive cost. #Tesla #SpaceX #Ucrania (translated)

Alejandro Alvarez stated that a law passed assigned funds outside of the Financial Administration Law and that, therefore, Article 5 of the Budget Execution Law 24.629 should be applied. He explained that this regulation establishes that laws authorizing expenditures must expressly indicate how they will be financed; otherwise, their execution remains suspended until the allocations are incorporated into the national budget. He also noted that the regulation requires budgetary backing for certain contracts and provides for asset liability for officials who authorize acts or contracts contrary to Law 24.156. Alvarez asserted that, in his opinion, this was how the Republic was protected: by studying and complying with all laws. #Ley #Presupuesto #Gobierno (translated)

Julio Schneider stated that a report by Andreza Matais from Metrópoles reported that the lobbyist Roberta Luchsinger allegedly used a photo of Fábio Luís Lula da Silva, known as Lulinha, with President Lula, taken during an official trip to Europe in April 2023, to impress businessman Leo Slezynger from Unigel. According to Schneider, Luchsinger presented Lulinha as her partner and was hired to mediate Unigel's interests with Petrobras and BNDES. He added that, according to investigations by the Federal Police mentioned in the report, she received at least R$ 1.26 million between 2023 and 2024. Schneider also wrote that Unigel signed a contract with Petrobras in December 2023, which was later annulled after the TCU pointed out a high risk of loss. Messages released by the report suggested that Luchsinger requested permission to share the photo and suggested that Slezynger invite Lulinha to join the board of an investment fund. He said that the report raised questions about the use of familial relationships with the president to influence business with public companies and classified the case as a criminal organization. #Lula #Lulinha #Corrupção (translated)
