Press Release. I kindly ask that you share: “The defense of Antonio Tabet vehemently repudiates the preliminary decision issued by Minister André Mendonça that ordered the removal of one of his posts on the platform X. The court order for deletion affects a statement that at no time mentioned the name of the candidate Flávio Bolsonaro. The main (but not唯一的) legal weakness of the decision lies in the presumption that a generic criticism would have a specific recipient, endorsing a curious phenomenon of self-identification. The post merely stated, accompanied by an image of the patron saint, that 'The militiamen family hates black women so much that they decided to attack Our Lady Aparecida!'. The fact that the representative recognized himself so immediately in this exact description is revealing, but wearing the own hat should not provide the legal basis for the declaration of censorship. Freedom of expression and political criticism, no matter how harsh or uncomfortable they may be, constitute ordinary and constitutionally protected elements of democratic debate. Treating a pointed opinion and a rhetorical hyperbole as if they were the dissemination of an "objectively false fact" subverts the purpose of combating misinformation, transforming the judicial apparatus into a convenient shield against free public scrutiny, exacerbated by the threat of a fine of R$ 30,000.00. For this reason, we inform that all applicable appeals will be filed to overturn the decision and safeguard the right to free expression. The democratic environment requires resilience, making it at least ironic that the judicial machine must be urgently activated to protect the susceptibility of those who, apparently, are offended upon seeing their own insecurity projected in public opinion.” (translated)
This news is positive for Flávio. If Vorcaro wasn't talking to him, it's because he knew that Flávio wasn't the type of guy who could help him escape from prison. And also, there was no way for Flávio to know that Vorcaro was about to be arrested at that moment. Very different from Vorcaro's attitude towards Moraes. The messages to Moraes increased during that period and were precisely about ways to avoid arrest. (translated)
YELLOWED! Taylor Swift is massacred by critics and the "Encore" of "The Life of a Showgirl" arrives at Metacritic with an average of 43. “She no longer has the incentive to take creative risks. No producer or record label head would dare offer a critical opinion. It's a shame. The greatest voice of modern pop risks destroying her own legacy because she is afraid to take a day off,” said The Telegraph. (translated)
“Good morning, António.” Centeno's opinion was unequivocal: it was a measure somewhere between the “crazy” and the “bizarre.” (translated)
I have known @mcfernandes for over 15 years. She is the journalist who has the most influence at @valoreconomico and is a member of the editorial board at @GloboNews. She may be one of the most leftist and pro-PT journalists in the media. I remember that during the time of Dilma's impeachment, I could tell whether things were going well or poorly for Brazil by seeing if that old wretch was happy or sad. The sadder she gets, the better things are for Brazil. She is an activist who has been disguised as a journalist her whole life and has managed to be taken seriously. (translated)
I totally understand Darlin, she’s not completely wrong! They really invented this immunity because they knew Stephanie would give it to Giovanna. What’s the point of getting tired fighting if in the end, those who do nothing win? #AFazenda (translated)
Greenwald threatens: "There is much more Vaza Jato to do, and the material that we have not reported yet and will report very soon is exactly this relationship between Vaza Jato and some outlets that, in my opinion, have renounced their role as journalists. This material will come out soon." (translated)
🚨 We cannot campaign, but our candidacy is approved, we will be on the ballots and we continue leading for the Senate! Even without being able to show our electoral advertisement on TV and radio and without being able to ask for votes, Paraná wants our name as a representative in Brasília. They silenced my campaign, but they did not silence the will of the people. Comment your opinion on this new survey that confirms our leadership 👇🏻 (translated)
🚨 TRE-PR CONFIRMS MY CANDIDACY, BUT I CANNOT CAMPAIGN… The Regional Electoral Court of Paraná concluded the judgment and maintained the registration of my candidacy. By unanimous decision, the Court partially accepted the appeals presented by the defense, without altering the result that authorized the candidacy. Lula, Gleisi, and the PT do not accept my candidacy, which leads the polls. During the trial, the Court also gave a stern response to the lawyers of the PT: "This Court does not need pedagogical lessons, dispensing with any tutelage from the petitioners." Despite the confirmed candidacy, due to a decision from the TSE, I remain prohibited from asking for votes, participating in debates, using resources from party and electoral funds, and broadcasting propaganda on the radio and television. But I continue on the ballots. Comment your opinion about this injustice 👇🏻 (translated)
In my opinion, after this news, the signs of a possible "OPERATION TAPETÃO" become increasingly concerning. My fear is that, in the event of a possible victory for Flávio, judicial decisions may arise that could interfere with the result or even his inauguration. The scenario, for me, deserves maximum attention. Are they preparing a coup? And there's an important point: any decision made by the "Brazilian authorities" will also be subject to scrutiny and international repercussions, including in the United States. (translated)
Julia Zanatta is another whom I would vote for: she defends gun ownership, she truly supports "my body, my rules," and protects me from being injected with a non-immunizing substance by the sanitary fascist regime, she didn't care about the opinion of a stupid woman, she defends my freedom of expression and common sense. 😍 (translated)
It’s really cool to hear Stephanie telling Giovanna how inspiring she is, that she wishes she could be free like that too, not to care about others' opinions on what to wear. And Giovanna saying that she will still be #AFazenda. (translated)
