Gian Oddi wrote that a candidate could lose votes for not answering questions in a debate and for engaging in aggressive bullying against a person over 80 years old. According to Oddi, other points should weigh more in voters' decisions: the candidate would have exalted torturers and honored militiamen from an extermination group, in addition to employing relatives of one of them. Oddi also cited a scandal involving "rachadinhas," accusations of embezzlement, money laundering, and organized crime, suspicious financial activities, real estate transactions he called bizarre, and investigations involving a chocolate store. He added that the candidate would have asked for millions of reais from the "brother" who robbed retirees from the INSS, defended a police officer accused of murdering a child, supported a management that Oddi classified as genocidal during the pandemic, and relativized a coup d'état that would end democracy and would foresee, among other actions, the assassination of three people. #Eleições2024 #DebatePolítico #Cidadania (translated)

Gian Oddi stated that he considered it sad for a candidate to potentially lose votes for not answering questions during a debate and for adopting an aggressive intimidation stance against a person over 80 years old. According to Oddi, other aspects should weigh more in evaluating the candidate: he claimed the politician praised torturers, honored militiamen from a death squad, and employed relatives of one of them; he got involved in a scandal regarding kickbacks and was accused of embezzlement, money laundering, and organized crime. Oddi also mentioned financial movements he deemed suspicious, real estate transactions he classified as bizarre, and investigations involving a chocolate shop. He further stated that the candidate asked for millions of reais from his "brother," who, according to the author, stole from retired INSS members, defended a police officer accused of killing a child, supported a management that Oddi described as genocidal during the pandemic, and downplayed an attempted coup that, according to him, would end democracy and foresee the assassination of three people. In conclusion, he said that intimidation in the debate should not be necessary to drive voters away from the candidate. #Eleições2024 #PolíticaBrasil #Democracia (translated)

Jones Manoel compared Flávio Bolsonaro's interview on Rede Globo to the presidential debate of 1989 between Fernando Collor and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, which, according to him, the network manipulated to favor Collor. Manoel stated that the interview was not a rigorous inquiry but a public relations effort for Bolsonaro, asserting that the candidate was able to lie and evade questions without being challenged. As an example, he cited Bolsonaro's statements about the 6x1 scale and about not cutting pensions, the BPC, the minimum wage, health, and education. Manoel claimed that the interview presented a candidate as a defender of workers who, according to him, supported measures against Pix, pensions, the BPC, the minimum wage, the SUS, and education. He also criticized the lack of questioning regarding the subordination to the United States and about proposals attributed to people close to Bolsonaro, such as ending Pix, handing over rare earths to the United States, and allowing the presence of American military personnel in Brazil. The author said that the owners of Rede Globo had lunch with Bolsonaro that morning and asserted that the interview had apparently been arranged. According to Manoel, the candidate appeared calm and would already know the questions. He accused the network of defending the interests of the elite and imperialism and supporting Bolsonaro, to whom he attributed the promise to end investigations into Banco Master and prevent punishments for what he called the greatest fraud in the history of Brazilian capitalism. #1989 #Mídia #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Julio Schneider stated that a report by Andreza Matais from Metrópoles reported that the lobbyist Roberta Luchsinger allegedly used a photo of Fábio Luís Lula da Silva, known as Lulinha, with President Lula, taken during an official trip to Europe in April 2023, to impress businessman Leo Slezynger from Unigel. According to Schneider, Luchsinger presented Lulinha as her partner and was hired to mediate Unigel's interests with Petrobras and BNDES. He added that, according to investigations by the Federal Police mentioned in the report, she received at least R$ 1.26 million between 2023 and 2024. Schneider also wrote that Unigel signed a contract with Petrobras in December 2023, which was later annulled after the TCU pointed out a high risk of loss. Messages released by the report suggested that Luchsinger requested permission to share the photo and suggested that Slezynger invite Lulinha to join the board of an investment fund. He said that the report raised questions about the use of familial relationships with the president to influence business with public companies and classified the case as a criminal organization. #Lula #Lulinha #Corrupção (translated)

Dan Pimpão questioned who would have funded the trip and stay of Metrópoles journalist Sam Pancher in Ukraine and what airplane he would have traveled on. He recalled that Pancher covered the war and interviewed the Ukrainian president, and stated that afterward, the journalist went to Poland and praised Warsaw. Pimpão also asked who would have facilitated the access of Pancher and Luciano Huck to the Ukrainian government. The author alleged that women, possibly minors, may have been recruited for a network of sexual exploitation promoted by Vorcaro and associates, and said that some would be from Ukraine and Poland. He raised the hypothesis that Pancher might have used an aircraft linked to Vorcaro and questioned who else would have traveled on it, in addition to possible conveniences offered by the Ukrainian and Polish governments. Pimpão stated that if the journalist had made these trips, he might contribute to the investigations. #Ucrânia #Jornalismo #ExploraçãoSexual (translated)
