Since the first announcement of the tariff to Brazil, it justifies him for the persecution that Bolsonaro would suffer in the hands of the (Federal Supreme Court). It is no secret to anyone either that, among Alexandre de Moraes’ most assertive critics, many are Bolsonaro supporters who want to get rid of justice and rehabilitate him to run in 2026. It should be asked then: does Bolsonaro persecute? I will remember facts already widely known.
Throughout his term and especially from 2022, Bolsonaro actively promoted, whenever he could, false accusations of fraud against the electronic ballot boxes and the TSE (Superior Electoral Court), to deny the results of the elections if he lost, as he actually happened.
Bolsonaro put it ahead of his ally, who turned it into a parallel intelligence body to monitor opponents and even suspicious allies of the president, as well as producing misleading contents about the elections.
In the second round of the 2022 elections, that of his government planned and executed a selective highway block plan, whose criterion were regions where Lula obtained more votes in the first round.
After defeat at the polls, thousands of supporters their supported camp in front of barracks throughout Brazil, asking for a military coup. Brasilia’s camps were noted for promoting a night of fires and depredations on December 12, and one of its participants placed a bomb in front of Brasilia airport on Christmas Eve, which just did not explode by technical failure. These camps were in constant communication with the high echelon of the government.
On December 7, 2022, Bolsonaro met with generals from the Army High Command to persuade them from supporting a state decree that would prevent the possession of the president-elect. He got the support of one of them, but not the other two. This is what apparently made him give up the plan, despite the insistent charges of military and supporters.
Already in 2023, after leaving the country, his followers tried to provoke military intervention with the invasion of the three powers in. At no time had Bolsonaro tried to demobilize the camps and unlope his requests for a blow.
For all this, Bolsonaro was the president who most attached to our elections and was at the center of the most serious coup mobilization since redemocratization.
This does not exclude criticism of various questionable decisions: unjustified precautionary, improper preventive arrests, very tough penalties, the decision not to be prevented to prosecute a crime in which he was one of the main targets.
There are also questions that can be asked the accusation against Bolsonaro: To what extent was he aware of all the fronts that organized himself by a blow? Did he have something to do with the movements after Lula’s inauguration, which culminated in January 8? Did your conduct even configure the crime of coup? It is precisely for this kind of discussion that the judgment serves. But that he is being tried for all that has been described above is not persecution; It is the most elementary functioning of justice.
