Leandro Ruschel stated that a reporter from Veja considered that the attention given to the recording published by the magazine would be diverting focus from more serious allegations based on messages found on Daniel Vorcaro's cell phone. According to Ruschel, the reporter said that messages from 2024 and 2025 would indicate a collusion with executives from the pension funds of Banco do Brasil, Caixa, Petrobras, and Correios to raise R$ 10 billion, of which R$ 1 billion would be destined to the PT as a bribe. The account also mentioned more than 450 messages with an operator linked to the office of Minister Alexandre Padilha. Ruschel said that, according to the report, Banco Master entered in May 2024 a government list that would allow it to receive investments from the funds, despite having low credit ratings and being under investigation for fraud. During the same period, the bank reportedly negotiated R$ 500 million in credit letters with Caixa; the operation retreated after O Globo reported, in July 2024, the removal of two managers who had issued a negative opinion. The report also claimed that Padilha had said, in a meeting at the Palácio do Planalto, that agreements made with Olavo Noleto would count as agreements with the minister himself, and that, after dinner at Vorcaro's house in October 2024, the banker received a message saying that Lula would meet him and had liked the conversation. According to Ruschel, the reporter stated that Lula received Vorcaro in December and that messages from lawyer Walfrido Warde suggested pressure on the Central Bank to save Master. He added that Vorcaro would have presented the account to the Attorney General's Office (PGR), which had refused to receive the material, and that there would be evidence involving PGR members who had contact with the defense. Ruschel said that the reporter argued that Vorcaro should be heard and warned of the risk of diverting workers' resources to save the bank. #Corrupção #Política #Justiça (translated)

The Planet of Football reported that a decision by Judge Suely Lopes Magalhães suspended the injunction that required the Fla-Flu Consortium to release Maracanã for Vasco vs. Boca Juniors, for the semifinal of the South American Cup. According to the publication, the legal dispute continued. The judge reportedly understood that Marco Antônio Ibrahim could not alone review the decision of the rapporteur Alexandre de Carvalho Mesquita and that the appeal should be analyzed by the rapporteur himself or by a panel. She also reportedly pointed out the risk of having three rival fan bases in the same area, as Flamengo vs. Botafogo, for basketball, would be held that evening at Maracanãzinho. According to the report, Suely cited a report from BEPE that deemed Nilton Santos suitable to host the match and stated that the police's preference for Maracanã did not make its use indispensable for safety. The decision, the publication added, did not determine whether Vasco had the right to the stadium nor whether the consortium's refusal was legitimate. The writ of security would be forwarded to rapporteur Joaquim Domingos de Almeida Neto, and the decision would be submitted to the Special Body of TJ-RJ. The publication attributed the information to the newspaper O Globo. #Maracanã #Vasco #Justiça (translated)

Tsuki found it "sensational" that the magazine Veja had directly accused Lula's campaign of spreading false news against the publication. He then summarized the arguments from a response by the magazine regarding its report about Vorcaro. According to the text from Veja reproduced by Tsuki, Vorcaro's lawyer would have confirmed the authenticity of the audio, and the magazine stated that it removed five short statements — 15 seconds in total — to protect the source. The publication also clarified that it did not say that the audio was included in the plea bargain nor that the confession was made to the Federal Police. Regarding the PGR, the magazine claimed that Vorcaro, through his lawyers, presented an account regarding the funding of a documentary about Lula and promised to deliver documents if the plea bargain was accepted, which did not happen. Tsuki also stated that some outlets were using "jurists" in their headlines to conceal, according to his assessment, that the coordination of Lula's presidential campaign was spreading false news against Veja's cover story. #PolíticaBR #FakeNews #Eleições2022 (translated)

Xico Graziano stated that a report by the magazine VEJA about supposed payments linked to Lula had provoked a reaction within the PT. According to him, PT members denied the accusations, said there was no evidence, and echoed a contestation from the Federal Police. In summarizing the report, Graziano said that banker Vorcaro reported having negotiated with João Vaccari Neto, former treasurer of the PT, payments to obtain access to pension funds for federal employees. According to the excerpt of the article he shared, it would amount to R$ 30 million in cash destined for the Lula Institute to fund a documentary about Lula abroad, in addition to another undisclosed amount paid directly to the institute, managed by Paulo Okamotto. Graziano added that Vorcaro had provided details to the Attorney General's Office (PGR), which did not proceed with the case as it deemed there was insufficient evidence. The banker’s defense, according to the account reproduced by the author, mentioned WhatsApp messages and records of withdrawals and deliveries of money. Graziano expressed belief that VEJA would not publish the report without confidence in the material and assessed that the published piece would merely be a preview of new revelations. He considered the story credible, although there might not be definitive proof, and compared the case to the Atibaia site, which, according to him, was not registered in Lula's name in the registry office. In Graziano's view, the report would harm the PT and Lula's campaign, discouraging voters and causing some to give up on voting. He stated that the case would reduce Lula's chances of reversing a defeat in the first round. #Lula #Petismo #VEJA (translated)

Nayib Bukele stated that Latinobarómetro had maintained a hostile editorial line towards his government, although its measurements historically enjoyed prestige and, according to him, were based on data and not on ideological narratives. Bukele pointed out that El Salvador had ranked first in 19 of the 20 indicators of the survey for Latin America, related to security, trust in institutions, state efficiency, and public services. He added that, in the remaining indicator, the Presidency of the Republic was the institution that generated the most trust among Salvadorans, something that, he said, only happened in El Salvador. He ironically referred to those who labeled the country a dictatorship despite these results. #ElSalvador #ConfianzaInstitucional #SeguridadLatinoamericana (translated)

Carlos Viana stated that Soraya Thronicke was sentenced by the Justice of Alagoas to pay R$ 50,000 to Alfredo Gaspar, an amount he considered insufficient. According to him, the Attorney General's Office did not find evidence against Gaspar, and the case was archived in the Supreme Court. Viana also said that, in the last session of the CPMI of the INSS, sectors of the left tried to protect those responsible for deviations against retirees and accused Gaspar of rape without evidence. He stated that he presided over the commission, with Gaspar as the rapporteur, and described him as a just man. Viana added that slandering was a crime and said he would not back down. #Justiça #Calúnia #DireitosHumanos (translated)

Julio Schneider stated that Daniel Vorcaro, owner of Banco Master and arrested for fraud, reported in audios and documents obtained by VEJA a proposal involving R$ 30 million in cash for the Lula Institute. According to Schneider, the account was part of an attachment presented to the Attorney General's Office in June, as part of a second plea bargain proposal that was discarded due to lack of corroboration. According to the version attributed to Vorcaro, Augusto Lima, then partner and CEO of Master, allegedly approached João Vaccari Neto through Jaques Wagner, then leader of Lula's government in the Senate. Vaccari would have conditioned the bank's accreditation for federal pension funds — Previ, Caixa Asset, Funcef, Petros, and Postalis — on two payments to the Lula Institute, headed by Paulo Okamotto: about R$ 30 million in cash to cover expenses of the documentary about Lula directed by Oliver Stone and another undisclosed amount. Schneider also wrote that Vaccari would have asked for 10% of the resources that Master raised from the funds. If the plan had materialized, according to the estimate attributed to Vorcaro, the Workers' Party would receive about R$ 1 billion and Vorcaro R$ 9 billion; the operation did not progress. The author emphasized that this was Vorcaro's version, not a conviction. Schneider also pointed out that, in the audio, Vorcaro contrasted the sponsorship of the film about Bolsonaro, which he described as regular, with the support for the documentary about Lula, which would have been paid in cash. #Lula #Corrupção #Documentário (translated)
