Mafe Carrascal Rojas criticized the Government of De la Espriella for its treatment of San Andrés and Providencia. She stated that it had staged a spectacle against the governor and a representative without presenting evidence, while governing alongside political clans that she labeled as corrupt. She also claimed that all the government budget proposals reduced real terms investment in San Andrés and Providencia compared to 2026. She cited the Minister of Finance, Miguel Gómez Martínez, and noted that his grandfather, Laureano Gómez, had described the indigenous and African heritage as inferior. Carrascal Rojas asked if this explained why Chocó, Vichada, and Atlántico —departments that, according to her, were among those losing the most investment— were some of the most ethnically diverse in the country. She called the government shameful and accused it of implementing austerity policies and being racist. #SanAndrés #InversiónPública #DesigualdadÉtnica (translated)

Xico Graziano accused Lula of lying and presented as evidence a publication by Everardo Maciel, Secretary of the Federal Revenue during Fernando Henrique Cardoso's (FHC) government. In the text shared by Graziano, Maciel refuted statements he attributed to Lula in a debate on Band: that he had created the Simples and received a “broken” country from FHC. Maciel asserted that the regime was established by Law No. 9.317, of December 5, 1996, during FHC's government, following the conversion of MP No. 1.526, of November 5, 1996, approved by symbolic voting in both Houses of Congress. He also stated that he conceived the regime and its name with the collaboration of members of the Federal Revenue. Maciel added that the success of the federal Simples inspired similar regimes in the States and that Complementary Law No. 123, of December 14, 2006, extended and unified the system for States that had not yet adopted it and for the Municipalities. According to him, this recognized the success of the program created during FHC's government. Regarding public accounts, Maciel said he coordinated the economic transition between FHC's and Lula's governments, with the exception of the Central Bank, and stated that the transition team recognized the fiscal balance. He attributed part of the turbulence in 2002 to the markets' reaction to the election perspective and said Lula committed, in the Letter to the Brazilian People, to maintain the inherited fiscal policy. In Maciel's assessment, the continuity of this policy, along with a favorable international scenario, largely explained the fiscal performance of Lula's first term. Maciel questioned whether Lula needed to offend FHC's legacy or claim the creation of the Simples, and Graziano concluded the post by asking if there was anything more to say. #Lula #FHC #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Only those who are LULA 2026 accused Globo, which is described as close to Flávio Bolsonaro, of presenting Argentina as a destination for Brazil if the senator's economic plan wins. According to the author, in Argentina, most people's income runs out before the end of the month, young people cannot save, and families resort to loans to buy food and medicine or pay the electricity bill. He also stated that wages do not keep up with prices and that the IMF is more pessimistic about the Argentine economy. In contrast, he said that Brazil had risen in the ranking of the world's largest economies and that Flávio's father had left the country further behind. The author claimed that some people are trying to reverse this situation and concluded that Argentina was an example of what Brazil should avoid, asking that the publication be shared. #Brasil #Economia #Globo (translated)
