Moro says he is appalled, and Lula’s allies mock Deltan – 05/16/2023 – Politics

Senator Sergio Moro (União Brasil), former Lava Jato judge, said on Tuesday night (16) that he was appalled by the impeachment of the federal deputy mandate of Deltan Dallagnol (Podemos-PR), former coordinator of operation task force.

Allies of former president Lula (PT) celebrated the decision of the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) and mocked Deltan’s condition.

The TSE’s decision to revoke the registration of the candidacy and, consequently, the mandate of federal deputy was unanimously taken by its seven members.

The action is the result of a representation by the Associação Brasil da Esperança (PT, PC do B and PV) and the PMN, who claimed that Deltan could not have left his career as a public prosecutor to enter politics because he responded to investigations, disciplinary complaints and requests for action from the CNMP (National Council of the Public Prosecutor’s Office) —which supervises the functional duties of the members of the Public Prosecutor’s Office.

An appeal is possible, and the case may reach the STF (Federal Supreme Court).

“It is with great sadness that I receive the information of the impeachment of the mandate of federal deputy of the @deltanmd. I am appalled to see outside Parliament an honest voice in politics that has always been in search of improvements for the Brazilian people. Lose politics. My solidarity with the voters of Paraná and the citizens of Brazil”, wrote Moro on a social network.

“Now Deltan Dallagnol has a power point to call his own! Impeached! He responds to pending administrative processes as a prosecutor, that is, he has a dirty record. He was also condemned by the TCU for expenses with per diems and tickets in the Lava Jato operation. Jeez, what a day huh ?!”, wrote deputy Gleisi Hoffmann, president of the PT.

She referred to a PowerPoint presentation made by Deltan in 2016 about the first complaint against Lula in Lava Jato. Deltan was later ordered to indemnify Lula for the performance.

“About the judgment held today at the TSE, I remembered a biblical text, which I dedicate to the president @LulaOficial: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled!” It’s in Matthew 5, 6,” said Flávio Dino (PSB), Lula’s Minister of Justice.

The presentation was also used by Deputy Guilherme Boulos (PSOL). He published on the networks a montage in the format of the slides used at the time by Deltan, but with the name of the former coordinator of Lava Jato in the center. “Leave your BYE to Dallagnol!” he wrote.
