The president’s idea was to postpone the chair dance, but plans were hit by the resignation of chief communications
The President (PT) should again talk to center parties and the Allied base to promote changes in government ministries next week. The resumption of the articulations was accelerated by the dismissal of (União Brasil) of the Ministry of Communications on Tuesday (8.ab.2025) by denunciation of the (Attorney General’s Office) for corruption.
Initially, Lula wanted to postpone the center’s requests for the moment he could organize support for the 2026 elections. The chief executive charges that his government parties are with him in an attempt to reelect. Faced with the difficulties of ensuring alliances in 2025, Lula must make specific changes and exchange PT ministers for party names. For now, the considered changes are:
- Agrarian development – must leave and enter, President of Conab (National Supply Company);
- Women – Cida Gonçalves should leave and enter another petista, namedly not defined;
- General Secretariat -Must leave and enter (PSOL-SP), Federal Deputy.
The Ministry of Communications should continue with União Brasil. The evaluation in the Planalto is that the number of ministries that the party commands is adequate to the size of the support that comes from the subtitle gives to the government. The inertial path would be to exchange Juscelino for another name of the acronym.
Now, even this exchange is uncertain. The federal deputy (União Brasil-MA) was appointed by his party, Lula accepted and invited him to join the government. The announcement that he would occupy Juscelino’s chair was made on Thursday (10.abr) by the Minister of Institutional Relations ,.
The leader of União Brasil in the House, however, said on Friday (11.abr) that he still wants with the deputies of the bench before accepting the invitation of the president to join the government. The decision should only be announced after Easter.

Macêdo faces resistance within social groups, which charge more government deliveries. Already the federal deputy has good traffic with the movements and has the sympathy of Lula.
The failure of the act against the amnesty of the convicts on January 8 convened by the congressman weakened his possible indication. The demonstration held on March 30 on Paulista Avenue, in the city of São Paulo, brought together about 5,500 people, according to a survey by Poder360. Boulos expected 20,000 people. The audience was well below the fences that were 2 Sundays before (16.mar.2025) at Copacabana beach, in Rio.
WOMEN
