Interesting. Seems like the leaders are corrupt. Seems like the system is even more corrupt. Seems like hosting the WC and the Olympics was a monumentally stupid move.

Good, finally Dilma and Lula are being exposed for the fraud they are. That wire says it all. They are scared and trying to run away from the Police and their investigations. Corrupt disgraces. Hopefully they rot in jail.
People are back on the streets btw.
I am actually scared for our democracy.

Dilma told Lula she would send him a possesion order (for the ministery he took possesion today)
She sent him that order in case the federal police tries to arrest him
If the president can say "presidenta", " mosquita" and "mulher sapiens", I think I can say "fudeu"
I feel ya broh, I'm happy and scared at the same time...no idea what'll happen

Right
cliff's notes
In order to get some special judicial prerrogatives, the idea of making Lula a minister was being floated around. Obv everybody knew that that was just a shitty way to make him avoid the prosecutors that were on his case, but there was no hard proof, since dudes could always claim that they'd give him the job for the good of the country and crap like that. Was the kind of wink wink shit that one could get away with, if one were completely idiotic and absolutely desperate. If you fucked, might as well double down.
Today it was announced that Lula would indeed become a minister. Heck, that he'd get the most important ministerial position in the country.
Shortly after that, a wiretap was made public via the courts, was a chat between the president and lula, and it makes it pretty clear that dodging justice was indeed why Lula would become minister.
They are well and truly fucked.
Hope palace security is on point today, because those fools are genuinely at risk of being lynched.

That's not the only audio though.
There is one where Lula asks the new Ministry of Justice to "be a man and prove that he's a friend".
(The Ministry of Justice handles the Federal Police, the ones investigating Lula).

Crap translation :
[Judge] Moro (the dude responsible for all the Lula stuff that he would be "running away" by becoming a minister) said that there is NOTHING on the audios, or OUTSIDE OF IT, that people mentioned before tryed to act in an illegal way. There is also no proof if the intention to intervene or influence others actualy happened

Brasilia is fucked as a whole. As I said in the other thread, they should just put a huge wall around it, cut internet, phones and television and don't let anyone get in or out. A few days later, sweep by dropping weapons and announce the first Brazilian Hunger Games. Sell that shit on pay-per-view and it will save the country's economy.
Seriously ... you people need to translate the jokes for 99% of GAF =P

thats not talking about DILMA OR LULA IN ANYWAY WHATSOEVER.
Thats talking about members of the public ministry and the supreme court.
Get some reading comprehension, or your beyblade skills are making you make up your own reality now?

What? What bastardized version of "democracy" are you referring to?
Actually, by definition, democracy is a political system in which the majority of the people have free will to elect and depose representatives whenever they see fit.
That's not exactly the system we live in, but I do not suggest further pursuing the semantics of "democracy" as an argument.
