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)

Fábio Garcia stated that he considered it absurd to argue that the money invested in Dark Horse was lawful, while the money destined for Lula came from corruption. He compared this distinction to the idea that Vorcaro maintained two accounts at Will Bank, separating honest money from money derived from corruption, and chose which to use for each investment. #Corrupção #Dinheiro #Política (translated)

Karina Michelin wrote that Flávio Bolsonaro was interviewed by Renata Lo Prete on Globo on October 16, nine days before the second round. According to her, he confronted Lula, criticized the Supreme Federal Court, and presented government proposals. Michelin reported that the interview addressed Banco Master and suspicions involving Alexandre de Moraes. When asked about Kassio Nunes Marques, nominated by Jair Bolsonaro and mentioned in messages from Daniel Vorcaro, Flávio stated that the law should apply to everyone. He invoked Law 1.079, advocated for the impeachment of ministers, and accused Moraes of acting as Lula's political strategist in Brasília. In the area of security, Flávio announced that he intended to gather commanders of the Armed Forces and police chiefs in January to combat drug trafficking. He also stated that he would seek to classify Comando Vermelho, PCC, and militias as narcoterrorist organizations, strengthen surveillance at the Port of Santos and borders, including the Amazon, and join the Shield of the Americas to share intelligence information. Regarding the outcome of the elections, he said he would respect it. Flávio also stated that the first round indicated a desire for change and criticized Lula's government for violence against women, family indebtedness, wildfires, and business closures. At the end of the interview, according to Michelin, he committed to not promising what he could not fulfill, to restore purchasing power, and to return safety to the streets. Michelin stated that Flávio declared himself ready for the Presidency and described his candidacy as a project from God. She also wrote that the debate between him and Lula was scheduled for October 18 on TV Bandeirantes, presenting the contest as a confrontation between two projects for the country. #Brasil #Política #Eleições2023 (translated)

Lucas Matheus wrote that a source close to him told him that about 65 GB of new conversations related to the Vorcaro case were in the hands of a few media outlets. He said he was unable to confirm the information independently but stated that the gradual release of the material corresponded to the source's account. According to Matheus, excerpts were being published during the second round and used in political disputes and, at times, to divert attention from other issues. He argued that the material, being of public interest, should be made available in full, citing the release of documents by the DOJ in the Epstein case as a comparison. Matheus accused the Federal Police, the Supreme Federal Court, and the Attorney General's Office of keeping information confidential that, in his assessment, should be public while parts of the content leaked. He also mentioned that there were those who claimed that excerpts were being sold. He criticized the actions of the press and the judiciary, stated that some actors had strong connections—without specifying with whom—and asserted that no one had been held accountable. Finally, he urged the public to question why and how the material was being disclosed at that moment. #Justiça #Transparência #Imprensa (translated)

Sâmia Bomfim stated that Flávio's interview on JN showed, in her assessment, that he relied on memorized answers and did not respond to the questions. She also accused him of being close to politicians imprisoned in Rio de Janeiro for crimes and of having participated in an attempted coup. Bomfim said that he asked Vorcaro for stolen money, that he intended to reduce investments in social areas, and that he was against labor rights and the end of the 6x1 work schedule. She also claimed that Flávio referred to a measure of his father's as a detail that, according to her, prevented the tracking of ammunition that fell into the hands of organized crime. #Política #Brasil #Corrupção (translated)
