He wants to banish me from politics, says Bolsonaro about Moraes – 11/03/2023 – Power

Former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) said this Friday (3) that the intention of STF minister Alexandre de Moraes is to eliminate him from politics and that, “at the moment”, the minister is being victorious.

Bolsonaro also stated that he is “seeing” what the strategy will be regarding whether or not to appeal the second conviction he suffered at the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) last Tuesday (31), this time due to electoral use of celebrations for the Bicentenary of Independence in 7 September 2022.

“That’s what I usually say: do you fight at home with your wife and are you going to turn to your mother-in-law? We’re looking at what our strategy is, although we don’t have a strategy. Strategy is what Alexandre de Moraes wants. And the We know what he wants. It’s to get rid of politics,” the former president told Sheet.

Bolsonaro is in Santos, on the coast of São Paulo, where he is participating this Friday in the delivery of vehicles to the 6th Fire Brigade. There is also a fine of R$425,640 thousand.

Bolsonaro also said that “at the moment he [Moraes] is having victory, but everything in this life is dynamic”.

The former president and General Walter Braga Netto, who was his candidate for vice last year, were convicted by 5 votes to 2 by the TSE.

Bolsonaro was already prevented from running for eight years due to a previous conviction in the TSE itself, also by 5 to 2, in the case of the meeting with ambassadors. Braga Netto, who is ineligible until 2030, said on Wednesday (1) that he will appeal the decision, which, for him, includes a fine of R$212,820.

According to federal deputy Rosana Valle (PL), Bolsonaro’s visit to Santos was motivated by the fact that two self-tank trucks against large fires were guaranteed during her administration, through amendments from the São Paulo bench in Congress, at her request.

One of them will be in Santos and the other must be moved to neighboring Guarujá.

The investment to reinforce the fleet is, according to the parliamentarian, just over R$4.4 million.

There was also an official delivery to the firefighters of a truck acquired through the parliamentarian’s collaboration with the governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio Gomes de Freitas (Republicans).

After the ceremony at the Fire Department, Rosana and state deputy Lieutenant Coimbra (PL) will take Bolsonaro to lunch at a restaurant located in the Ponta da Praia neighborhood of Santos.
