Chief Minister says that the Bolsonarists have no moral standing to accuse the Lula government of abuse of power, due to the parade by the Acadêmicos de Niterói samba school, which paid homage to the president.
According to Boulos, criticism from supporters of senator Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) is expected. “It’s the extreme right doing its job,” he says.
This Thursday (19), the PL contacted the (Superior Electoral Court) with a request for early production of evidence to investigate the parade.
“apotheotic piece of political-biographical marketing” and seeks to gather elements for a future Judicial Electoral Investigation Action for abuse of political and economic power.
For Boulos, the attitude is contradictory, given actions carried out by Jair Bolsonaro’s government in the 2022 campaign.
“Whoever used the Federal Highway Police to prevent Lula voters from voting does not have the authority to talk about the use of the public machine”, says the minister, in reference to the fact that the body was used to block voters in the Northeast, a region where the PT member has greater strength.
