Pedro Menin wrote that the "Roberta episode" had intensified the PT campaign. According to him, initially, members of the old guard argued that Lula should not participate in the debate, but the discussion widened and the decision remained open due to divergences with the so-called janonista wing. Menin stated that supporters began to push for Edinho's departure, who has been the president of the PT since 1985 and coordinator of the campaign. He also attributed to Lula the assessment that this was the worst campaign he had seen since 1989. According to Menin, ministers mentioned by Roberta, including Camilo Santana, advocated for a more robust response instead of avoiding the debate. The author said that, as reported by Metrópoles, part of the power previously concentrated in Edinho had been distributed among other party leaders. Menin added that campaign members were already considering advancing the election for the presidency of the PT in case Lula lost, and he assessed that Edinho might leave his position. Finally, he stated that the movement for Lula to back out of the debate was strong the day before, but that the forces had balanced out since then. Menin questioned whether Lula would participate and how his emotional state would be. https://t.co/fRTftDu1RP #Lula #PT #Eleições (translated)

VEJA reported that debates about the permanence of Our Lady Aparecida as the patroness of Brazil diverted attention from issues like public debt and security during the campaign. The magazine attributed to Globo the spread of what it classified as the biggest fake news of the dispute: the rumor that Flávio Bolsonaro would support a project to strip the saint of her title. According to the publication, the candidate and his campaign denied the information. VEJA said the topic gained traction after journalist Maria Cristina Fernandes addressed it on GloboNews. The network later clarified that the proposal had been presented in 2007 and archived the following year, and apologized to viewers. The magazine added that left-wing politicians continued to discuss the matter even after the denial. #eleições2026 #Brasil #fakeNews #eleições (translated)

Arthur Machado stated that if Lula lost the elections on the 25th, sectors of the right that defined themselves by anti-PT sentiment could be left without a central opponent, since, according to him, they had not built an alternative project for the country. Machado criticized a portion of the liberal right, which, in his view, repeated slogans without presenting proposals to attract investments, modernize laws, or promote coexistence with divergent views. He also mentioned that the PT could fragment and compete for space among leaders after Lula. As an example, he cited European sectors that, according to him, reorganized their political identity around fighting other groups, including the radical right. Machado stated that without a consistent national project, former opponents of the PT could start targeting Eduardo Bolsonaro and other movements in search of new adversaries. The author also said that the criticisms of the "5th element" came from groups without a project or knowledge about Brazil and claimed that political groups that treated law as a tool for control, rather than as a guarantee of rights and freedoms, were technocratic and promoted a Chinese governance model. He concluded that the problem for these sectors would be discovering that they never had a project to replace Lula as an opponent. #PolíticaBrasil #Antipetismo #Lula (translated)
