VEJA reported that messages found by the Federal Police on Daniel Vorcaro's phone, the former owner of Banco Master, indicated that lawyer Walfrido Warde said that the banker had the support of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and members of the PT to try to save the institution. In an audio sent in March 2025, after the announcement of the purchase of 58% of Master’s capital by Banco de Brasília (BRB), Warde stated that Globo was trying to reduce Vorcaro's political support within the party. The operation depended on approval from the Central Bank. According to the magazine, the conversations showed contacts with government members and attempts to bring Vorcaro closer to Lula. The president was mentioned in at least 20 messages sent by Warde to the banker between April 2023 and July 2025. VEJA also reported that Vorcaro advised that any eventual show of support from Lula should be intermediated by Edinho Silva, president of the PT, to avoid exposing the president. The Central Bank liquidated Master in November 2025. #danielvorcaro #bancomaster #Lula #BancoCentral #PT (translated)

It is very concerning that we are getting used to seeing these images of police brutality. If this happens with a "progressive" government, I can't even imagine what it will be like when there are protests under another government. And it surprises me that nothing has changed in all these years. (translated)

Pedro Menin stated that the story about an alleged agreement with Flávio could become the biggest fake news of the campaign and denied that Roberta had "colluded with Flávio." According to him, Roberta was a single mother of two teenage daughters and had been exposed by Lula, who, despite claiming that it was not his place to judge anyone, had condemned her prematurely. Menin claimed that Lula knew about his own involvement and that of his son in the case and had used the Federal Police to pressure Roberta into silence, just as, according to the author, he had done with Vorcaro. He stated that the two had turned to the press and sought protection because they believed that Andrei's Federal Police would not investigate the case and would protect Lula, whom Menin accused of leading a criminal gang. The author also labeled Lula as misogynistic, sexist, and a liar and said that he had been unmasked again. Menin stated that Roberta's life was in danger and associated the situation with the vulnerability of thousands of women during Lula's government. #Fakenews #Eleições2024 #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)
