VEJA reported that the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) decided on Saturday, 17, that its cover story about reports from banker Daniel Vorcaro of Master, with allegations against President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, could continue to be published. According to the magazine, TSE President Minister Nunes Marques stated that, in a preliminary analysis, there were not enough elements to remove the article and the publications that reproduced it. He pointed out excerpts in which the magazine expressed itself directly but said they should be evaluated in the context of the report, which attributed the central accusation to Vorcaro, included the candidate's denial, and recorded reservations. In the minister's provisional evaluation, there was no evident falseness or serious decontextualization demonstrated that would justify removal. The magazine stated that the report presented audios in which Vorcaro admitted to sending money to allies of the federal government to gain access to pension funds of state-owned companies, including Petrobras, Correios, Banco do Brasil, and Caixa Econômica Federal. According to the publication, the goal was to raise 10 billion reais in investments for the bank and to pass 1 billion reais to intermediaries with the government. VEJA also reported that Vorcaro's defense presented the information to the Attorney General's Office in an attempt to negotiate a plea bargain, but the agency rejected the proposal twice. #TSE #jornalismo #Lula (translated)

Kriska Carvalho alerted activists and fandoms to what she described as an attempt by Bolsonaro supporters to demotivate leftist activism. She stated that infiltrated profiles were impersonating fandoms and recommended checking the account history before sharing or supporting posts. According to Carvalho, since Saturday, messages circulated that tried to spread panic to prevent participation in the streets, and after the events, reports of assaults that, according to her, did not occur. She also pointed out attempts to silence Lula and to dictate how the activism should act. Carvalho acknowledged that people from her own political camp criticized content, including herself, but said that during the second round, it was important to avoid conflicts among allies and not discourage those working for the campaign. She argued that each person should contribute as they could, in networks or on the streets, and asked that the activism remain mobilized until the second round. #Militância #SegundaTurno #Lula (translated)

Xico Graziano stated that a report by the magazine VEJA about supposed payments linked to Lula had provoked a reaction within the PT. According to him, PT members denied the accusations, said there was no evidence, and echoed a contestation from the Federal Police. In summarizing the report, Graziano said that banker Vorcaro reported having negotiated with João Vaccari Neto, former treasurer of the PT, payments to obtain access to pension funds for federal employees. According to the excerpt of the article he shared, it would amount to R$ 30 million in cash destined for the Lula Institute to fund a documentary about Lula abroad, in addition to another undisclosed amount paid directly to the institute, managed by Paulo Okamotto. Graziano added that Vorcaro had provided details to the Attorney General's Office (PGR), which did not proceed with the case as it deemed there was insufficient evidence. The banker’s defense, according to the account reproduced by the author, mentioned WhatsApp messages and records of withdrawals and deliveries of money. Graziano expressed belief that VEJA would not publish the report without confidence in the material and assessed that the published piece would merely be a preview of new revelations. He considered the story credible, although there might not be definitive proof, and compared the case to the Atibaia site, which, according to him, was not registered in Lula's name in the registry office. In Graziano's view, the report would harm the PT and Lula's campaign, discouraging voters and causing some to give up on voting. He stated that the case would reduce Lula's chances of reversing a defeat in the first round. #Lula #Petismo #VEJA (translated)

Nayib Bukele stated that Latinobarómetro had maintained a hostile editorial line towards his government, although its measurements historically enjoyed prestige and, according to him, were based on data and not on ideological narratives. Bukele pointed out that El Salvador had ranked first in 19 of the 20 indicators of the survey for Latin America, related to security, trust in institutions, state efficiency, and public services. He added that, in the remaining indicator, the Presidency of the Republic was the institution that generated the most trust among Salvadorans, something that, he said, only happened in El Salvador. He ironically referred to those who labeled the country a dictatorship despite these results. #ElSalvador #ConfianzaInstitucional #SeguridadLatinoamericana (translated)
