The law enforcement agencies have guaranteed the right to protest with their usual professionalism, intervening with balance and caution in critical situations where it was necessary to do so. In any case, the treacherous actions carried out by these agitated professionals of disorder will not go unpunished. In addition to the numerous arrests, investigation activities have begun to bring those responsible to justice. Neither the minor age of some of the participants can suggest any form of impunity. The line from the Viminale, as always, is aimed at preventing violence to avoid worse troubles but without leniency on individual responsibilities that will be contested in criminal proceedings. Those who engage in such illegal actions will face the ensuing response from the State, which will apply the current laws. This is clearly brutish violence that will achieve no results. Thus said the Minister of the Interior, Matteo Piantedosi. #ForzedellOrdine #Violenza #Proteste (translated)

Sólbjørg Jakobsen criticized Venstre for going after Rosa Lund after she had made posts and given interviews during her maternity leave. Jakobsen wrote that Lund had worked in the Parliament almost until her birth, and that Ekstra Bladet had portrayed the case as an example of how the Red-Green Alliance milked the system. Jakobsen disagreed with this. She wrote that Peder Hvelplund in the article had accounted for a specific deliberation in the party that she found reasonable if one distinguished between sick leave and maternity leave. Jakobsen added that she herself was writing from her maternity leave and that women could very well be on maternity leave while also being interested in work. She wished Lund good luck upon her return and wrote that she looked forward to both fighting against her politically and supporting her as a political co-mother. #politik #barsel #kvindelighed (translated)

Jones Manoel wrote that, according to a report from the newspaper O POVO, executives from Rede Globo met with Flávio Bolsonaro hours before a hearing to discuss the possible legalization of bets, which were banned by the Lula government. According to the report, the ban affected the financial interests of Grupo Globo, which would operate in this market through MGM Bet and advertising contracts. Manoel stated that the meeting should be debated because, while workers depended on the maintenance of their rights, executives from the network would have discussed economic interests and changes in labor legislation with a presidential candidate shortly before interviewing him. He also said that Globo was neither progressive nor defended democracy, but rather the interests of the elite and imperialism, and questioned how the financial interests of large companies could influence political maneuvering and journalistic coverage. #Globo #Política #Brasil (translated)
