The governor of, (Republicans), asked on Wednesday (6) to (Supreme Federal Court) to visit the former president in his.
In the letter sent to the minister’s office, Tarcisio says he will be in Brasilia on Thursday (7) and pursues all the determinations established by the Supreme at the meeting with the former president.
“The petitioner is a co-religionist and friend of the recluse. In the face of such a circumstance-that, moreover, it is of broad public knowledge-the petitioner considers that there are political-institutional and humanitarian reasons that justify the permission of personal visit to Mr. Jair Messias Bolsonaro,” says Tarcisio in the document.
The decision is up to Alexandre de Moraes. The only authorized to visit Bolsonaro so far was Senator Ciro Nogueira (PP-PI). Eight other parliamentarians and a friendly businessman from the former president await the minister’s response.
The Supreme Minister also decided on Wednesday to authorize the visit of Bolsonaro family members without prior request. The permission was granted to children, sisters-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters of the former president.
The rule established by Moraes is that visitors cannot use their cell phone in Bolsonaro’s presence or take pictures or record videos.
Tarcisio is one of Bolsonaro’s main allies, quoted to succeed him in the leadership of the right-wing political group that tries to return to the Presidency of the Republic in 2026.
The Governor’s trip to Brasilia had been scheduled at least since last week. Therefore, before house arrest. He already had a lunch scheduled on Thursday with the former president on Thursday. Then he talked to allies about requesting a visit to Moraes.
Every time he goes to Brasilia meets Bolsonaro. Interlocutors defended the meeting as a way of providing solidarity, support and receiving guidance from their political godfather.
The meeting comes in good time, especially after Tarcisio is the target of criticism from the pockets because he missed the demonstration on Paulista Avenue last Sunday and did not even have made any statement about the movement.
The gesture was misunderstood by Bolsonaro allies, criticized in a speech in the sound car by Pastor Silas Malafaia and the target of indirect children of former President Eduardo (PL-SP) and Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ).
HAS Sheetthe senator classified the absence of right -wing governors as a “giant strategic error.” He stated this is the moment when he sees who is willing to “rescue our democracy with us”.
In addition to Tarcisio, Romeu Zema (Novo), from Minas Gerais were also absent; Ratinho Jr. (PSD), from Paraná, and Ronaldo Caiado (União Brasil), from Goiás.
Tarcisio marked one for the same date: a thyroid ultrasound radio ablation, a minimally invasive ultrasound -guided invasive procedure that applies radiofrequency to destroy nodules.
When Bolsonaro’s house arrest occurred, the governor of Sao Paulo recorded a video in defense of the former president, without directly criticizing the Supreme Court. The gesture and speed helped relieve the tone of critics to the governor a little.
In the publication, he said the decision is absurd and that no one was able to prove the accusations against the former president.
“The arrest of Jair Bolsonaro is absurd. The truth is that Bolsonaro was tried and convicted much before all of this begins. An attempted coup that did not happen, a crime that did not exist and accusations that no one can prove,” said the governor of Sao Paulo on social networks.
He also indicated that the decision would be undemocratic.
“Is it worth ending democracy under the pretext of saving it? Is it not clear that we are advancing on individual guarantees? It has been time for institutions to take initiatives to unleash the crisis, ending a dispute that results in zero sum, which shows inability to resolve and mediate conflicts, which generates no other effect but the loss of confidence,” he wrote.
“Today, each of the good Brazilians who believe in freedom, democracy and justice is being punished too. But know, they will not silence the movement. Force, President. We are with you,” he added.
