Decision of the Secretary of Public Security of SP, who is still being evaluated, aims to resume his mandate as federal deputy and start preparing for the election to the Senate next year
The Secretary of Public Security of São Paulo, announced last Sunday (08) the possibility of leaving the government of to return to the position of federal deputy. In a video released on social networks, Derrite clarified that the decision is still in the evaluation phase and emphasized that this is not a political rupture, but rather a possible return to its legislative activities. He mentioned that the exit would be anticipated, but there is no concrete definition on the subject yet.
During an event held last weekend, the secretary also expressed his support for the return of former President Jair Bolsonaro to the presidential dispute in 2026, despite his current ineligibility. Guilherme Derrite suggested that the right came around a consensus name, mentioning potential candidates such as Tarcísio de Freitas, Ronaldo Caiado, Ratinho Júnior, Eduardo Bolsonaro and Michele Bolsonaro. This statement reflects the search for a unified strategy within the conservative political spectrum.
In response to speculation about the departure of Guilherme Derrite, the São Paulo State Government, through an official note, said that there is no forecast of change in the management of the Public Security Bureau. The deadline for the removal of secretaries interested in competing in the 2026 elections occurs only in April next year. The note stressed that, under the leadership of Rit, the public security policy has presented concrete results, with historical falls in crime rates, such as homicides and theft.
In the national political scenario, there is still no consensus on the right over who should lead the presidential race in the next election. Several leaders and acronyms of the conservative spectrum have already signaled the intention to launch their own candidacies, which can fragment the political field. Among the names considered for the presidential dispute is Goiás governor, Ronaldo Caiado, who defends the strategy of multiple right candidates in the 2026 elections. Meanwhile, Jair Bolsonaro maintains silence about which name should support, and Tarcisio de Freitas reaffirm his loyalty to the former president, prioritizing reelection to the government of São Paulo.
