The author stated that the problems facing Spain began with Sánchez and his environment, but were also due to a legal framework he described as anomalous, unjust, and weak. He attributed its construction to 50 years of bipartisanship, concessions to separatism, and what he termed false humanitarianism, arguing that it harmed Spaniards in relation to people from outside. #España #Política #Bipartidismo #ES (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that the two former officials of his government had not presented evidence of their accusations to the Prosecutor's Office, which he described as slanders. He said he would take them to criminal proceedings so they could present their evidence and the justice system could decide. Petro denied having asked paramilitaries to accuse a specific person and maintained that, during his political control debates as a congressman, he himself had made accusations based on judicial evidence. Regarding Abelardo, he stated that his relationship as an advisor to paramilitarism had been mentioned and documented with photographs in those debates, and that it had appeared in paramilitary confessions for years. He also said that what happened in Ralito had been established through a law of the Republic and attributed the proposal to subordinate legal benefits to telling the whole truth to the Constitutional Court. According to Petro, his government had only warned that the process should be concluded with truth, restorative justice, and guarantees of non-repetition. https://t.co/AVzLiUP0CA #Justicia #Verdad #Corrupción (translated)

Pablo Quirno explained that on October 15, the Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly examined 23 projects on decolonization. He indicated that Argentina voted in favor of 21 and abstained on two, while the United States voted against all. Quirno noted that one of the abstentions referred to the application of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples by specialized agencies and institutions linked to the UN, and that Argentina had maintained that position since 2006. Regarding the other abstention, on the project "Addressing contemporary forms of colonialism," he said that the Foreign Ministry had identified provisions that, in its view, exceeded the scope of resolution 1514 (XV) and other relevant resolutions. He also stated that the text included concepts addressed in other areas of the UN whose relationship to the decolonization mandate was not sufficiently clear. Quirno asserted that the abstention aimed to preserve the specificity and historical scope of the decolonization process and did not imply a change in Argentina's commitment. He added that the voting reflected differences among states, even in Latin America and the Caribbean. The author called for the issue of the Malvinas Islands not to be politicized and argued that the defense of Argentine sovereignty rights over the Malvinas, South Georgia, and South Sandwich Islands, and the surrounding maritime areas, was a state policy. #Descolonización #IslasMalvinas #NacionesUnidas (translated)

Melquisedec Torres stated that the image he disseminated was the first known photograph of the so-called Pact of Valledupar. He identified the individuals appearing in it, from left to right, as Jorge Lemus, director of the National Intelligence Directorate; Hollman Morris, manager of RTVC; Juan Carlos Villamizar Alarcón, legal advisor to former paramilitary leader Salvatore Mancuso; and Víctor Currea de Lugo, advisor to DAPRE. According to Torres, his sources told him that Morris was holding the script for a live broadcast planned for the closing of the event, held between October 22 and 24, 2025, at the El Bosque hotel in Valledupar, and that he was sharing details with his government colleagues and Villamizar when the photo was taken. Torres also attributed to his sources the claim that the Petro government transported around 60 people to Valledupar, some of whom, he wrote, did not have a visible task. He added that the deployment included planes to transfer former paramilitaries, hundreds of soldiers to guard the site, and extensive logistics for the meetings, in addition to the resources mobilized by RTVC. #PactoDeValledupar #Exclusiva #Noticia (translated)

Melquisedec Torres questioned whether the government of Gustavo Petro had paid the lawyer of former paramilitary leader Salvatore Mancuso. He stated that Juan Carlos Villamizar Alarcón participated in meetings of the "Pacto de Valledupar" in October 2025 as legal advisor to Mancuso and said he had revealed that information over the weekend. Torres noted that Villamizar had received at least two contracts from the national government in 2025 and 2026: one for $13.8 million from the National Center for Historical Memory and another for $128 million from RTVC. He indicated that the RTVC contract appointed him as an expert advisor in transitional justice to support the production of audiovisual content about the JEP and the Justice and Peace jurisdiction. He added that the lawyer had a professional card issued less than two years ago and that the contract, awarded directly, was signed on January 25, 2026. He also stated that, according to social media records, Villamizar had a long history as a member of far-left parties and ties to Gustavo Petro since at least 2009. He added that in 2014, Congreso Visible reported him as a member of the Unión Patriótica and that years earlier, he was listed as the coordinator of youth for the Polo Democrático Alternativo in Spain. #JusticiaTransicional #GustavoPetro #Colombia (translated)

Simón Levy argued that those claiming that the governor of Chihuahua, Maru Campos, had betrayed her prosecutor, César Jáuregui, overlooked the political and legal risk. According to Levy, if Jáuregui accused her of having ordered the operation involving CIA agents, Campos would be directly exposed, making it nonsensical for her to have sacrificed him. Levy suggested that Jáuregui would have betrayed Campos and the United States, and asserted that, according to his interpretation, it was the United States—not the prosecutor—who protected the governor from Sheinbaum. He added that Campos would be facing the consequences of Jáuregui's alleged betrayal. #PolíticaMéxicana #Chihuahua #MaruCampos (translated)

Renato Souza reported that, upon leaving a TV station in 2023, he received seven job offers. One of them came from a consulting firm whose partner, according to what he later discovered, had worked as a lobbyist for a company with financial ties to Banco Master. The consulting firm mentioned a major client and a contract still pending signature, but did not reveal who it was; Souza said he even thought it might be Banco do Brasil. The position would involve monitoring legal processes, uncovering background information, and anticipating decisions based on the analysis of the legal landscape for major clients. Souza stated that he found it strange that he would not be writing articles, but would be sending information and maintaining contact with sources. The conversation ended in the first meeting. Days later, he declined the invitation without knowing the salary or the conditions and chose another offer, one of the few on a CLT contract, for stability and predictability. Souza remarked that Brasília, despite having 3 million inhabitants, seemed to him marked by closed cycles. He said he chose journalism at the age of 10 and did not enter the profession for the money, although he considered it important for excellent work to be well compensated. For him, pursuing that dream could also bring the certainty of doing the right thing. #jornalismo #carreira #Brasília (translated)

The Pedrosa Channel reported that Luis Felipe Salomão, president of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), rejected the request from Fla-Flu Serviços S.A. this Thursday (15) to suspend the decision that determined the match between Vasco and Boca Juniors to be held at the Maracanã on October 20 at 9:30 PM. According to the channel, the court's order for the match to take place at the stadium remained valid. According to the published summary, Salomão considered that the managing company of the complex did not have standing to appeal through a request for suspension of security, an instrument that, according to him, was intended to protect collective interests. The minister assessed that the case involved private interests related to the exploitation of the Maracanã and that there was no demonstration of public interest that justified the measure. The channel reported that the manager claimed wear of the pitch, concentration of games within a short interval, and security risks due to the gathering of fans, as Flamengo and Botafogo would also be playing a basketball game at the Maracanãzinho. However, Salomão understood that no concrete evidence was presented of a serious threat to public order or safety. He also noted that the questioned decision already anticipated moving the basketball event to avoid overlapping audiences. According to the Pedrosa Channel, Salomão concluded that he did not consider the request as he understood it did not meet the requirements to be analyzed through this avenue. The minister added that any eventual questions regarding the actions of the judges should be presented through the appropriate appeals in the Court of Justice of Rio. The channel emphasized that the decision maintained the existing authorization but did not settle the dispute over the use of the stadium. #STJ #Maracanã #Futebol (translated)

Attention, Vasco fans! It was reported that the President of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), Minister Luis Felipe Salomão, did not grant, on Thursday (15), the request from Fla-Flu Serviços S.A. to suspend the decision that authorized Vasco x Boca Juniors at Maracanã on October 20 at 9:30 PM for the semifinal of the Copa Sul-Americana. According to the report, Salomão considered that the concessionaire, constituted by Flamengo and Fluminense, did not have the legitimacy to appeal to this legal instrument, as it is a private company and does not act as a delegate of public service. The minister also understood that the choice of the stadium did not constitute a primary public interest that would justify the exceptional request. The publication stated that Fla-Flu Serviços had claimed risks related to the meeting of the fans, the operation of the stadium, the pitch, and the need for a minimum interval of 72 hours between matches. According to the report, Salomão concluded that the company did not prove a serious threat to public order, security, or the economy. He also pointed out that the transfer of the basketball game between Flamengo and Botafogo alleviated some of the concerns. Furthermore, according to Attention, Vasco fans!, the minister considered that potential damage to the pitch would not constitute serious harm to public assets nor justify the suspension. The publication added that he evaluated that the request could not substitute for a judicial appeal and that any questioning regarding the actions of judges from the Court of Justice of Rio de Janeiro should follow the appropriate appeal channels. The decision maintained the authorization for the match at Maracanã without suspension by the STJ. The publication described the outcome as a procedural victory for Vasco but noted that it did not end all possibilities for judicial contestation. It also informed that the decision concerning Safety Suspension No. 3,678/RJ was signed at 12:49 PM on October 15, 2026. #Vasco #BocaJuniors #Maracanã (translated)

Antonio Tabet described a publication as biting satire and humorous criticism of a political agent who, according to him, should endure being the target of public mockery. He stated that humor and freedom of expression were protected by the Constitution, by ADPF 130, and by ADI 4451, and said he had seen the content on Gustavo Vilela's Instagram. Tabet added that the visual joke with musical parody did not mean that the Bolsonaro family was the family linked to militias that he might have mentioned before. In the end, he stated that the text had been written by his legal team to avoid further censorship. #Sátira #LiberdadeDeExpressão #Humor (translated)
