Bolsonaro wanted the last cone of his years in power – 08/12/2023 – Bruno Boghossian

Around 9 am on December 30, Mauro Cid made a final attempt to get his hands on a set of jewels seized by the Federal Revenue Service. Jair Bolsonaro’s assistant called a Planalto server and asked for a document that could be used to release the gift from the Saudi government. He did not make it.

The colonel was in a hurry. At 2:02 pm, he would take off for Florida on a FAB plane alongside the then president. In the trunk, there were items given to Bolsonaro by foreign authorities throughout his term and which, according to the Federal Police, would be sold in the US. He lacked the kit held at Guarulhos airport.

The desperation of the muamba troop to release the jewels suggests that Bolsonaro wanted to take one last coat of his years in power. No one needed a Rolex on their arm to remember that, hours later, the then president would be without political office for the first time in three decades.

Bolsonaro left a trail of suspicions about his interest in turning public money into private advantages. No wonder, he arrived at the Presidency with the ghost of the investigations of the crack, which investigated the deviation of salaries of advisors to supply his family.

The appetite could seem tiny, as in the famous Wal do Açaí case. She received BRL 1,351 a month from the Chamber, but worked in a store in Angra dos Reis during the hours when she was supposed to work for Bolsonaro’s office. Neighbors said that, in fact, her husband did services at the house of the then deputy.

At the same time, Bolsonaro pocketed BRL 3,083 per month in housing assistance, despite living in his own property in Brasília. As if the money was his to do with whatever he wanted, he said he used the money “to eat people”.

With the low swindle, the former president turned politics into a business. The PF thwarted the jewelry scheme, but Bolsonaro left power with a parliamentary pension of R$35,000 and a salary of R$40,000 from the PL, in addition to R$17 million as a reward for his voters.
