Renan says Lira gets in the way of Lula and wants to be guardian – 05/31/2023 – Politics

In the midst of clashes with Arthur Lira (PP-AL), Senator Renan Calheiros (MDB-AL) said this Thursday (31) that the President of the Chamber of Deputies prevents the Lula government (PT) from forming a majority in the National Congress. and wants to be “a kind of guardian of the market”.

“Padilha [ministro da Secretaria de Relações Institucionais] he is a wonderful person. What the government is having difficulty with is that the president of the Chamber has prevented the government from building a majority”, said the senator to journalists on his arrival at the Senate.

“He only makes it possible to vote on what will effectively defeat the government and prevents the government from exercising the coalition it has assembled. When he approves a matter, he approves it as if it were a concession from him to the Republic. He wants to function as a kind of guardian of the market.”

Political rival of the Calheiros clan in Alagoas, Lira went to social networks this Wednesday (30) to deny that he had asked for the resignation of the Minister of Transport, Renan Filho (MDB), son of Renan Calheiros, in exchange for the approval of the MP (provisional measure ) which reorganized the ministries.

“The information that I asked ‘the minister’s head’ is false and unreasonable, and much less in exchange for approval of any government proposal. I have always acted with respect to the Powers”, said the deputy.

“The origin of the disinformation follows the same line as those who have used social networks, and their representatives, to gratuitously disrespect me”, he added.

Asked whether the mayor had asked for Renan Filho to resign from the government, Renan said that he “does not usually” be informed “about Arthur Lira’s things”.

According to members of the political wing and government parliamentarians, Lira made a complaint to President Lula himself, to the Civil House and to the Institutional Relations Secretariat on Monday night (29) that he was dissatisfied with messages published by Renan on social networks.

The day before, the senator stated that Lira attacked his ex-wife, is a deadbeat and embezzles public money.

“A sad example: Lira is a deadbeat, he usually does not pay what he owes. Worse, he embezzles public money and beats a woman – he beat Jullyene, his ex-wife and mother of his children, for 2 hours. Penha thinking about punishing miscreants like him,” he wrote on Twitter.

Earlier, the senator told the Panel that he “had to speak” and that he was not informed of any inconvenience. Renan also said that the president of the Chamber continues “persecuting Alagoas, plotting against the government and hindering the constitutional role of the Senate”.
