Carlos Bolsonaro stated that new scandals were revealed daily and interpreted the attempt to distance Jair Bolsonaro and his children from public life as a means to regain political alliances in the name of defending democracy. He said that "all the pieces" were on the board. He also claimed that Jair Bolsonaro and those convicted for the events of January 8 were still being held illegally, were being tortured daily, and were deprived of their freedom. According to Carlos, this situation would serve to restore the "scissors theater" and cater to obscure personal interests, preventing Brazil from becoming a powerhouse. He concluded that the legacy of the former president would not be erased and that his sacrifice had awakened the nation. #Democracia #Brasil #Liberdade (translated)

Wilson Lima stated that two images symbolized the election. According to him, Ana Elisa, a Black woman who allegedly said on social media that not going to Carnival was a racist gesture, advocated for the end of prejudice against Black Brazilians. Lima wrote that after being elected, she appeared in a silk blouse and tailored trousers, incorporating, in appearance, the "whiteness" she had criticized, which was part of Lula's campaign. Regarding Cleitinho, Lima said that he was from the Republicans, a conservative, right-wing party, but not Bolsonaroist, and had declared support for Flávio Bolsonaro. He stated that Cleitinho used to participate in public events wearing a very worn football team shirt and would go to Congress like that.
