Karina Michelin stated that on Sunday, October 11, the Amazon was still burning and that the smoke in Manaus was affecting residents, while classes were suspended and firefighters were working at their limit. She also reported that a firefighter became ill during the firefighting efforts and had to be carried by colleagues. Michelin said that the Amazon Fire Department requested reinforcements from the federal government on September 18, including four aircraft, transportation, and vehicles. According to her, on October 1, the National Public Security Secretariat, linked to the Lula government, responded that the request could not be met at that moment. The author stated that the federal government claimed the state had waived support and cited 229 extinguished fires and another 20 still being fought. She said the aircraft began to arrive on October 10, following a wave of complaints on social media. The author compared the current mobilization with that of 2021, during the Bolsonaro government, when Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethânia, and Chico César participated in the song "Canção pra Amazônia," by Greenpeace. She questioned the absence of a similar mobilization in light of the situation of residents and firefighters. Michelin called Lula and the Amazonas government hypocrites and demanded explanations about who had denied or waived help and when reinforcements arrived at the fire line. She also stated that human and animal lives threatened by smoke should take precedence over political disputes. #Amazônia #Incêndios #MeioAmbiente (translated)

The author noted that Pedro Passos Coelho would give an interview to Maria João Avillez on SIC Notícias, between 9 PM and 10 PM, and argued that his governance should be reassessed in light of the financial conditions he encountered. According to the author, Portugal had already requested external assistance when Passos Coelho arrived at the Government in 2011, and the adjustment program of 78 billion euros had been negotiated before he took office. He maintained that during the legislature, exports rose from about one-third of GDP to nearly 40% in 2015, including tourism, and that the tourism sector gained strategic momentum. Regarding privatizations, he acknowledged that some operations were questionable and warranted scrutiny but argued that they allowed the collection of billions of euros, the amortization of public debt, and reduce financing needs and interest burdens. He also considered that cuts in the public sector were painful but questioned what the alternatives would have been when the State could no longer finance itself normally. The author further highlighted that Portugal completed the financial assistance program in 2014 and returned to market financing without a precautionary program, recovering, in his view, decision-making leeway. He stated that Passos Coelho was the most relevant politician of the century in Portugal for having made unpopular decisions and contributed to an economic change whose effects surpassed his Government. #Portugal #Política #Economia (translated)

Nicolas Redondo Terreros questioned the actions of the members of the Constitutional Court in the approval of the amnesty and argued that they had favored Pedro Sánchez and Carles Puigdemont. He claimed that the measure had served to secure the seven independentist votes necessary for Sánchez to remain in La Moncloa and rejected that its purpose had been to pacify Catalan society or facilitate political agreements. The author said that if the Supreme Court ruled against it, the Constitutional Court would still have to pronounce on the so-called "grandchildren's law." He also maintained that the magistrates had lost prestige and had acted in the service of a leader who, according to him, lacked scruples and threatened democratic balances. Redondo Terreros responded to Cándido Conde-Pumpido's assertion that going against the Constitutional Court was going against democracy. In his view, criticizing the court's management and its intervention in the Supreme Court's realm was also a way to defend it. #Constitución #Democracia #Justicia (translated)

The Independent Medium stated that if Flávio were elected, at least one appointment to the Supreme Court would be reserved for Minister Mendonça. The author said that governments usually consulted ministers about new appointments and described Mendonça as a doctor of law and professor, with the moral stature to expand his influence through recommendations. He also stated that most of the advisors of TCE-SP were sponsored by the minister, but that the court had exemplary performance and an excellent reputation. #STF #Justiça #Política (translated)

The publication stated that Kayath was one of the names considered to take over the Ministry of Economy in a possible government of Flávio Bolsonaro. According to the author, in an interview with Estadão, Kayath emphasized that he was not part of the campaign or the coordination of the economic program; the author deemed this stance appropriate as it prevented his statements, even if distorted, from affecting the campaign. The author mentioned as part of Kayath's background his work as a banker, his collaboration with Lemann, and his support for Lula in 2022. He expressed understanding of the concerns that these backgrounds could generate, although he did not consider them a problem given the current situation. What, according to the publication, caused discomfort was Kayath having considered — or having considered in the past — Bolsonaro "crazy" and not contesting the characterization of those involved on January 8 as coup plotters. The author assessed that Kayath supported Flávio but believed there were coup plotters within bolsonarism, and that a coup would not occur because Flávio would respect the institutions. He stated that Kayath still needed to understand that, in his view, Bolsonaro and bolsonarism had always respected these institutions. The publication also mentioned that Kayath was in favor of abolishing reelection and stated that he could reconsider his positions over time and with more information. #Economia #Bolsonaro #Política (translated)

Helder Floret stated that the dispute over Maracanã was more political than sporting. According to him, Flamengo knew that a match involving Vasco would not cause losses, but wanted to demonstrate power and act as if it were above the official regulations. Floret said that Vasco was trying to regain a position of prominence and, therefore, did not give up the dispute, which in his assessment should continue in the coming years and went beyond the stadium. He added that, whatever the immediate result, the club needed to move past the passive stance that, according to him, accepted everything out of weakness, as the moment had changed. #Futebol #Maracanã #PolíticaEsportiva (translated)
