A partial report from the São Paulo Civil Police points out that a football player agency, accused of having a supposed link with the criminal organization PCC (Primeiro Comando da Capital), received over R$ 1 million from payments made by Corinthians. The formal justification for the transfers was the intermediation of the contract between the football club and the online sports betting house VaideBet. In total, R$ 1,074,150 arrived at the UJ Football Talent Intermediation company's bank account. The company was targeted by the plea bargain of real estate agent Antônio Vinícius Lopes Gritzbach, who was murdered in November at São Paulo International Airport, in Guarulhos. According to the plea bargain, UJ Football was involved in money laundering in the acquisition of elite Brazilian football players. The money from Corinthians is believed to have reached the company through payments made to the company Rede Social Media Design, which belongs to Alex Fernando André, also known as Alex Cassundé, who was part of the communication team of the current Corinthians president, Augusto Melo, during his electoral campaign. The link between the Corinthians payments and UJ Football was first reported by newspaper O Estado de S.Paulo and confirmed by Folha. The case began to be investigated by the Civil Police based on information published by the UOL blog. Three intermediary companies were used until the money reached UJ Football. According to the Civil Police, these firms were used by shell companies. Rede Social Media Design received two payments of R$ 700,000, totaling R$ 1.4 million, in March last year. A few days later, R$ 1,042,000 was transferred to Neoway Soluções Integradas em Serviços. This company had Edna Oliveira dos Santos as a partner, who receives government aid and lives in a precarious house in Peruíbe, on the São Paulo coast, and claimed to be unaware that she was listed as the owner of the company. In turn, Neoway transferred R$ 1 million to Wave Intermediações e Tecnologia. Finally, Wave transferred R$ 874,000 to UJ Football, and another R$ 200,000 arrived through another intermediary company, Victory Trading Intermediação de Negócios, Cobrança e Tecnologia. All these financial transactions occurred within a 10-day period. The investigation, led by delegate Tiago Fernando Correia, from the DPPC (Department of Police Protection to Citizenship), found that some of these shell companies had never made money transfers to each other, and after that, they never made any transactions again. With the information that Edna's name was used as a shell company in Neoway, the delegate called Alex Cassundé to testify. He stated that his name was included in the contract between VaideBet and Corinthians through intermediation, but the explanation did not convince the investigators and led them to continue tracing the money until it reached UJ Football. According to the report, the Corinthians' coffers were the target of a criminal association's theft. There is also suspicion of money laundering, as there are indications of an attempt to disguise the origin of the money that reached UJ Football. The Corinthians' defense stated that Alex Cassundé 'has no knowledge of the sequence of payments' after his transfers to Neoway, that he is unaware of the other companies involved and has no knowledge of the payments made to UJ Football. The Corinthians published an official statement on their website stating that 'there is no demonstration of authorship related to the facts mentioned' and that 'the club's president reaffirms his total support for the ongoing investigations, as well as all initiatives aimed at clarifying any involvement of organized crime in Brazilian football.' The report was unable to contact UJ Football and VaideBet. In his plea bargain, Gritzbach linked UJ Football to the name Danilo Lima de Oliveira, known as Tripa, who has been investigated by the Civil Police since the beginning of 2022. At the time, his link to PCC had already been pointed out by the police. Oliveira is suspected of participating in a kidnapping of Gritzbach in January 2022. When he was kidnapped, he was subjected to a 'crime tribunal' in which he was questioned about the suspicion of having disappeared with US$ 100 million (R$ 547 million) that belonged to drug trafficker Anselmo Becheli Santa Fausta, the head of PCC. Gritzbach was also accused of having ordered the murder of Cara Preta in 2021, which he denied. The denunciation that shell companies had received money that came from Corinthians led to the termination of the contract between VaideBet and the club in June last year. The sponsorship of the betting house was the first major contract signed by Augusto Melo's management.

The Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Flávio Dino, accepted the explanations from the Chamber of Deputies on Thursday, 15, that there is no 'institutional support' from the House on a possible agreement on the division of commission amendments. The response came after a statement by the leader of the PL, Deputy Sóstenes Cavalcante (RJ), who cited the breakdown of the agreement as an extreme alternative of the party if the proposal for amnesty to those involved in the acts of January 8, 2023, was not scheduled for voting. In an interview with the newspaper O Globo last month, Sóstenes said that the PL could not comply with an agreement signed by the President of the Chamber, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), with the leaders, which provides that the party that leads a committee shall receive 30% of the transfers, while the remaining 70% shall be distributed among the other parties. In his decision, Dino stated that Sóstenes' statement has no legal effect and does not represent the institutional position of the Chamber, which reiterated its commitment to the plan of work approved by the Supreme Court to ensure transparency in the management of public funds. 'In line with official information from the Chamber of Deputies, I clarify that there are no 'immunities' or 'privileges' for a political party, regardless of which one, to appropriate what does not belong to it: the destiny of public funds from the General Budget of the Union', wrote the minister. Furthermore, Dino emphasized that the so-called 'commission amendments' and 'bancada amendments' must follow clear rules and register, with precision, who proposed changes to the Budget. This requirement aims to ensure transparency and public control, preventing resources from being distributed arbitrarily or secretly. The minister ordered that this registration be made in official minutes, even if in a general manner. After Sóstenes' statement, Dino requested that the parliamentarian explain his statements. The PL leader claimed parliamentary immunity to not respond to the minister's summons. To Estadão, Sóstenes said he had not been officially notified to provide explanations. On Twitter, the federal deputy said he would respond 'with the necessary firmness, transparency, and balance' when he receives the summons.

I just received an image that left me bewildered: Afonso Roitman and Maria de Fátima kissing. Lovers, so you know, I almost spilled the rosé champagne I was holding in my hands just from excitement. My dear, my expectations are inflated! Am I living or just waiting for this baphonic scene? That's the question... There's no forecast yet for when the kissing scenes will be shown (Fabrício Pioyani/ Agnews / Contigo). It turns out that some paparazzi from Ag News and Contigo! caught a real plot twist for the TV Globo novel Vale Tudo, on Praia de São Conrado: the start of the romance between Maria de Fátima and Afonso Roitman. Well, during the filming of scenes that will be shown soon, the actors Humberto Carrão and Bella Campos were photographed acting out kisses between the characters. Alice Wegmann, who plays Solange Duprat, also filmed scenes with Carrão in São Conrado (Fabrício Pioyani/ Agnews / Contigo). During the recordings, Alice Wegmann, who gives life to Solange Duprat, was also caught on camera with Humberto, who was wearing the same costume as the moment he exchanged kisses with Bella Campos. Despite the anxiety to follow this plot twist, there's no forecast yet for when the chapter with the awaited kiss between the future couple will air.

Paraguay has gained space on the radar of many Brazilians, not just as a shopping destination, but as an attractive option for tourism, entrepreneurship, and even a new life. One of the main responsible for this transformation in public perception is the Paraguay Portal, created by Bruno Neves. Bruno Neves in Encarnación: the city is attracting more and more Brazilians interested in tourism, as it is an important commercial and industrial hub in Paraguay. The portal has become a reference by gathering informative content about the country, focusing on the opportunities it offers to foreigners. Through videos, posts, and explanatory materials, the project aims to show a more updated and realistic view of Paraguay, highlighting its economic advantages, urban structure, culture, and lifestyle. One of the main channels of dissemination is YouTube, where Bruno Neves shares videos on the @portalparaguai channel. There, the public finds guides, cost of living comparisons, and practical information for those thinking of investing or moving to the country. Paraguay's President, Santiago Peña, sent a special message to Brazilian followers of the Paraguay Portal: "Come and get to know our country". A direct invitation that reinforces the approach between the two nations. The project's reach is so significant that it has even reached the Paraguayan government. Recently, Paraguay's President, Santiago Peña, recorded a special message specifically for Brazilian followers of the Paraguay Portal. In the recording, he made a direct invitation for Brazilians to visit the country and get to know everything it has to offer. An event in Paraguay brings together authorities, entrepreneurs, and communicators, strengthening the connection between Brazilians and the neighboring country. The initiative has won over a significant audience, especially on social media, where the content spreads quickly among Brazilians curious about what the country has to offer. The growth of interest has been notable among people seeking more accessible or less bureaucratic alternatives than those found in Brazil. In addition to digital content, the project shares useful information for those planning to visit, invest, or live in Paraguay, contributing to consistently expanding interest. The work done by the Paraguay Portal has helped change the image many Brazilians still had of the country, bringing the two nations closer not only geographically, but also in opportunities.

The Terracap Agency for the Development of the Federal District published two direct sale notices for occupants of residential and mixed-use properties located in the former areas of conditioned parceling (APC) of the Vicente Pires Housing Sector. There are 382 properties in total. Proposals for purchase or land concession can already be submitted. Both notices, with addresses, sizes, and prices, are available for download on the agency's portal. Most of the Vicente Pires Sector 1, known as Jóquei Clube, has already been regularized. Around 1,000 properties have been made available in direct sale notices. Now, there are remaining lots that depended on more detailed environmental studies to advance in regularization. Notice 02/2025 includes 365 residential properties. Residents have until June 10th to submit their proposal for purchase or concession to Terracap. The land prices start at R$ 119,700 (200.19 m²) and already include the deduction of infrastructure made by the occupants, as well as the value added by this implementation. Direct sale Notice 03/2025 brings 17 properties registered for non-residential, single-family use. However, some properties may be acquired as residential, due to factual circumstances. Occupants have more time to submit their proposals: until July 10th. The land prices for mixed-use start at R$ 103,300 (171.17 m²) and also include the legal discounts. In both notices, this is the first time the properties are included in a direct sale notice. Those who register with Terracap and opt for immediate payment will have a 25% discount on the property's sale price. Registration is mandatory and a prerequisite for the regularization process. Financial institutions offer specific loan lines to finance properties originating from land regularization. So, those who opt for a loan from one of these institutions will pay the bank in installments, but in full, with a discount to Terracap. Residents can also parcel the land financing - in this case, the maximum payment period with the agency is 360 months. According to Terracap Resolution 269, the same property can be included in up to three notices, but with a gradual reduction in discounts and benefits. How to submit a proposal The proposal for purchase and required documentation can be submitted to Terracap in two ways. In person, at the agency's headquarters - Setor de Áreas Municipais (SAM) - behind the Palácio do Buriti, Bloco F, from 7am to 7pm. The other way is to send the material remotely, through the Terracap website. For those who do not want to personally attend to make the delivery, the entire procedure can be done online, through the Terracap website or mobile app, available on Android and iOS platforms. Look for the 'Services' menu. When you find it, click on 'Regularization - Direct Sale'. Opening 'Terracap - Online Services', access the platform with your login data. On the initial page, click on 'Regularize Direct Sale'. Select 'Regularize Direct Sale', then 'Step 1 - Property Selection'. After creating the registration, a new step will be inserted: 'Step 2 - Create Proposal'. At this point, the confirmation of the inserted information and the upload of documents will be made. Send them. The sending process will be complete. More information can be obtained from the Terracap call center, at (61) 3350-2222, or through the online chat, available on the agency's portal. The service is available from Monday to Friday, from 7am to 7pm.

From days 12 and 13 of this month, Fiocruz Brasília hosted the II Urban and Periurban Agriculture Seminar in the Federal District, with the theme 'Health Surveillance and the Development of Intersectoral Actions for Prevention and Mitigation of the Impacts of Pesticides on Health and the Environment'. The main objective of the event was to expand the debate on the effects of agricultural chemicals on human health and the environment, promoting intersectoral articulation between institutions and knowledge for the development of joint and sustainable actions. The seminar brought together around 170 participants, including experts, public administrators, health professionals, representatives of the Federal District Government (GDF), social movements, and researchers from all over the country. 'Promoting this meeting between the surveillance of abusive pesticide use, its implications on health, and the role of promotion and assistance in the SUS, especially in the context of climate change, is a major breakthrough. Brasilia is moving towards becoming the capital of agroecology in Brazil, as public policies strengthen intersectoral collaboration between government and civil society,' said Marcos Trajano, a Family Health doctor and manager of Integrative Health Practices at the Federal District Health Secretariat. The Secretary of the Environment of the Federal District, Gutemberg Gomes, participated in the opening and emphasized the importance of the seminar. According to him, the initiative is extremely important for promoting not only sustainable agriculture but also care for the environment and the value of the territory. 'It is essential to dialogue with urban farmers. A seminar like this contributes to inclusion, but also strengthens environmental education,' he stressed. During the seminar, the role of public institutions in building an agenda to address the impacts of pesticides, especially in the urban and periurban context, where agroecological agriculture has been strengthened as a strategy for promoting health, was emphasized. The program included thematic tables, regional experience presentations, and technical debates. One of the highlights was the lecture by Dr. Wanderlei Pignati, a professor and researcher at the Federal University of Mato Grosso, who is a national reference on the impacts of agricultural chemicals, which addressed the links between the intensive use of these substances and the increase in diseases such as cancer, neurological disorders, and congenital malformations. According to Dr. Pignati, the Federal District's agricultural area consumed around 11 million liters of pesticides per harvest. The professor emphasized that in 2024, the Federal District's agricultural area, mainly in Planaltina and Paranoá, consumed around 11 million liters of pesticides per harvest, with soybeans and genetically modified corn prevailing. This consumption represents an increase of over 140% compared to the period between 2000 and 2019. 'Brazilian agriculture has a high consumption of pesticides, with around 5 kg per person, representing an annual consumption of over 1 million tons,' he said. The manager of the Basic Health Unit (UBS) in Planaltina, Sandra Fernandes, also participated in the event and emphasized the importance of the initiative for strengthening health actions in the territory: 'We have an agroforest in our unit, recently revitalized, which is a space for health promotion and education. Participating in this seminar helps us take better care of this location and orient the population on the risks of pesticide use.' She also reaffirmed her commitment to sustainable practices: 'We don't use any type of poison there. We only work with organic composting, pruning residues, and support from partners like Novacap and Emater [Federal District Rural Extension and Technical Assistance Company].'

The Civil Police of Rio de Janeiro arrested on Tuesday, 13th, several horses, valued at R$ 6 million, 12 vehicles - including a luxury car worth over R$ 1.77 million - and R$ 220 million allegedly diverted from public coffers. The assets were blocked by Operation Caballus, which investigates a money laundering and bid-rigging scheme in Campos dos Goytacazes, in the North Fluminense region. The agents of the General Department of Corruption, Organized Crime, and Money Laundering (DGCOR-LD) found that the criminal group operated through at least three companies, apparently fronts. These companies won tenders held by municipalities in the state of Rio de Janeiro, mainly in Campos dos Goytacazes. According to the Civil Police, the contracts had the purpose of providing medicines and hospital supplies, diverting public resources, allegedly illegally collected, to the leader of the gang. In addition to the diversion of public resources, the investigation identified suspicious transactions of money laundering. Part of the values transferred to the contracted companies by municipalities was used to pay taxes related to a stud farm owned by the main suspect. The operation found that the suspect has high purchasing power, being a partner in several companies and owner of a stud farm, a boat, and several high-end vehicles. During the investigation, suspicious transactions were identified by the investigated and intermediaries, from 2018 to 2023. In this period, there was financial movement of at least R$ 220 million. See what was seized The operation marks the conclusion of the first phase of the investigations, in which 10 search and seizure warrants were executed against six targets. Also, a judicial block was requested for the R$ 220 million belonging to the criminal group. In this stage, the following were seized: computers, cell phones, 45 horses valued at approximately R$ 6 million, 12 vehicles - including three luxury cars from the Porsche (valued at R$ 1.7 million), Dodge RAM (R$ 370,000) and BMW X1 (R$ 350,000) - as well as tricycles, quadricycles, tractors, and various documents.

The street known as Rua dos Protestantes, which was once a hotspot for open drug use in the center of São Paulo, was empty on Monday. The area, which was home to around 200 drug users, was once a hub for drug activity, but it has been largely cleared out in recent weeks. The police have been working to dismantle the drug trade in the area and have arrested several individuals. The city's mayor, Ricardo Nunes, has said that the area is no longer a hotspot for drug use and that the police have made significant progress in reducing the number of drug users in the area. However, some residents and business owners are concerned that the area may still be a hub for drug activity, and that the police may not be doing enough to address the issue.

A bill that is being processed in the Legislative Chamber of the Federal District (CLDF) aims to implement the Index of Quality of Service Assessment (IAQA) in the Specialized Women's Assistance Delegations in the country's capital. According to the author of Bill 1710/25, Deputy Robério Negreiros (PSD), the tool will be crucial for promoting sensitivity and effectiveness in the support provided to women victims of violence in the DF. The parliamentarian argues that the index emerges as a transparency and accountability instrument, allowing the population to have knowledge about the quality of service provided in the specialized delegations for women's assistance. 'Continuous evaluation of the service is essential to ensure that women's rights are respected and they feel encouraged to report', explains Negreiros. The idea is to conduct the evaluation semi-annually through a satisfaction survey with women who have been assisted in the delegations. The index will be composed of indicators such as waiting time for service, level of confidentiality and sensitivity during the service, and information on legal procedures. According to Negreiros, violence against women is a structural issue that requires a state response to not only curb this practice but also provide a welcoming and safe space for victims to seek protection and justice. Therefore, he adds, the index, by evaluating and monitoring the support provided to women seeking assistance, will also ensure that the delegations comply with norms of welcome, respect, empathy, and efficiency. 'An environment that values the quality of service is a crucial factor for victims' confidence in seeking help', affirms the author of the project.

A scam that has been making more and more victims in the Federal District, the 'Golpe da Panela' (Stainless Steel Pan Scam), causes significant losses to the victims. Thieves pose as high-quality kitchenware sellers, convincing victims with discounts and special prices. One of the victims in the DF had a loss of R$3,000, after purchasing the products. The criminals usually operate in public places, such as supermarket parking lots and commercial areas, offering pots. They use various arguments to convince the victims to buy. Only after making the payment do the victims realize they have been deceived. The chief of police at the 38th Police Station (Vicente Pires), Pablo Aguiar, issued a warning about the scam on his social media after a series of recurring cases of victims of this scam. 'They try to deceive the victims by saying that the pots are excellent, that they have a sophisticated non-stick coating,' the delegate said. To convince the buyer, according to Pablo Aguiar, the scammers say that the pots are on promotional prices, that they need to return to their region and don't want to have a loss by returning without selling the pots. 'People buy and then when they get home and use them, they notice that the pots are of poor quality, made of very bad materials,' the delegate emphasized. In Vicente Pires, one of the victims of the 'Golpe da Panela' who preferred to remain anonymous, reported a loss of R$3,000 after being approached by two women who convinced her to buy the products. 'They wouldn't leave me alone! Then they started pressuring me and making emotional blackmail, saying they were the last pots and needed to leave to catch a flight. They said they would have to pay taxes if they returned with the merchandise,' the victim said. The resident of Vicente Pires also reported that, in addition to a large discount, she was promised gifts and a receipt. However, when she passed her card, she was informed that there were no more gifts. She tried to cancel the purchase when she realized she was being scammed, and the supposed seller said she would note her contact to send the gifts later. 'The pots are not original. The boxes were tampered with. They left quickly in a car without giving me a receipt or proof of purchase,' she emphasized. It is important to stay alert and protect yourself from this type of scam by researching the seller and product, asking to see the product before buying, verifying the quality and whether it corresponds to the description and price; Do not let yourself be swayed by very tempting offers or pressure to buy. Seek the police and report the crime if you are approached by suspicious sellers. And if you are a victim of the scam, register a police report so that the police can investigate the case.

The US government announced on Monday (12) the end of the temporary protection that shielded Afghans from being deported, considering that security in the country governed by the Taliban has improved. Afghanistan is facing severe economic problems since the Taliban returned to power in August 2021, as well as the second-worst humanitarian crisis in the world, after Sudan, according to the UN. One-third of the population, or around 15 million people, is suffering from hunger, and one in four young people is unemployed, a crisis that may worsen due to the announcement of the suspension of US aid, made in January. According to the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Afghanistan expires on May 20, and the cancellation will take effect on July 12. She believes that the security situation has improved and that the country's economy is in the process of stabilization. Noem emphasized that there are beneficiaries who have been investigated for fraud and who pose a threat to public and national security. The TPS protects against deportation and guarantees the right to work. It is granted to foreigners who cannot return to their countries safely due to war, natural disaster, or other extraordinary condition. According to the AfghanEvac NGO, around 11,000 Afghans are protected by the TPS in the United States. The decision is not based on reality, but on politics, protested the NGO's president, Shawn VanDiver, a US Army veteran. There are still killings, arbitrary arrests, and continuous human rights violations, mainly against women and ethnic minorities. What the government did today was to betray people who risked their lives for the United States, built lives here, and believed in our promises. The United States granted thousands of Afghans - including many who worked with the US Army or the deposed Afghan government - special immigration visas after the Taliban regained power. Trump took measures to eliminate the TPS for citizens of several countries, including Haiti and Venezuela.

The pharmacist, Wesley Gomes dos Santos, 44 years old, was shot to death on Sunday evening (05/11) while drinking with friends at a bar in Riacho Fundo II. At the time of the incident, the bar, located on QN 15, was full, and a 37-year-old woman was also hit by the shots. According to the Military Police of the Federal District (PMDF), witnesses reported that around 19:35, an individual arrived on a motorcycle and fired multiple shots at Wesley, who was inside the establishment. The suspect allegedly hit Wesley with at least four shots. The Fire Brigade of the Federal District (CBMDF) was called and provided first aid, but the victim did not survive and died at the scene. Wesley's niece, Jéssyca dos Santos, who lives nearby, says that he was a good person and was excited to start a new job on Monday (05/12). When she heard about the crime, Jéssyca rushed to the scene and found her uncle still alive. "Last week, we received information that he had a fight here at the market. And maybe it was that person. But I don't know who it is, I don't know them," Jéssyca said. Security camera footage from a nearby store shows the suspect sitting at the same table as the victim around 10 minutes before the crime. The man gets up and leaves, and then returns a few moments later with a gun, firing shots. After the shots, the perpetrator fled and has not been located by authorities yet. The case is being investigated by the 29th Police Station of the Federal District (Riacho Fundo II), which is investigating the motive of the crime and working on identifying the suspect. Tips can be made through 197, which guarantees absolute confidentiality.

The National Consumer Price Index (INPC) had a 0.48% increase in April, following a 0.51% increase in March, according to data released on Friday, April 9, by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). With the result, the index accumulated a 2.49% increase for the year. The 12-month rate showed a 5.32% increase, compared to a 5.20% rate in March. The INPC measures the variation in prices for families with an income of one to five minimum wages and headed by salaried workers.

The National Social Security Institute (INSS) announced that it will return R$292.7 million in resources related to deductions from the payroll of retirees and pensioners that were blocked. According to the agency, this return will be made between May 26th and June 6th. The values to be returned now are related to April's monthly payments. For operational reasons, this value had already been deducted from the payment of retirees and pensioners, but was blocked before being passed on to associations and unions. The money was blocked by the INSS and will be returned to the beneficiaries in the May payment. On Thursday, the federal government detailed in a press conference the measures being taken against INSS fraud and the ways for beneficiaries to recover the resources deducted unfairly. The INSS president, Gilberto Waller, announced that next Tuesday, 9 million people will be notified by the INSS about the occurrence of union deductions in their benefits. The next day, two channels of attention will be available - the Meu INSS app and website, as well as the 135 phone line - for beneficiaries to consult which association made the deduction and the corresponding value. From that notification, the beneficiary will be able to indicate whether they agree or disagree with the union deduction recorded. If they disagree, they must inform, through the available channels, that they did not authorize the deduction. With this negative response, the system will automatically generate a claim against the responsible association. The INSS will act in defense of the beneficiary against the entity. The INSS will return the deductions made since March 2020. The association will have 15 business days to take two measures. The first is to prove the link with the beneficiary, attaching to the system documents that attest to their membership, authorization for the deduction, and the identity of the insured. If it does not present this documentation, the association must, within the same deadline, return the unduly deducted amount. The reimbursement will be made through a deposit to the INSS, which will pass the amount to the beneficiary through a supplementary payment, credited to the account where the benefit is paid.

Former Foreign Minister Celso Lafer, who served in the governments of Fernando Collor and Fernando Henrique Cardoso, criticized the trip made by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to Russia on Friday (9). In an interview with Rádio Eldorado, Lafer said that the visit, to participate in the celebrations of Victory Day in World War II, "is not a smart decision" due to the context of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. According to the former minister, Lula's presence at Vladimir Putin's celebration means disregarding the prevalence of human rights, as stipulated in the Brazilian Constitution. In the interview, Celso Lafer also spoke about the uncertainties in the global economy due to the tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump and the challenges facing Brazil at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30), to be held in November in Belém, Pará.

PRE-PARA-RA because this story is one of those that hits hard in the chest and shows that real life is more intense than any Globo soap opera! Gabriel Stauffer, who shone as the young Gustavo in the Pantanal remake, decided to open up and share a very intimate story: the revelation that his father is homosexual - and how it turned everything upside down in his life. The actor revealed everything in a podcast, saying that the bombshell dropped in 2017, when his father, after a delicate surgery, finally came out to the family. And the impact was real: Gabriel was so shaken that he even distanced himself from church! "I was very confused. How could a God, the father of all, prepare a hell for my father? [...] I prefer to love my father unconditionally the way he is", he said, with tears in his eyes (and ours too!). The revelation was a turning point in the actor's life - who now maintains a loving and respectful relationship with his father and his current boyfriend, in a healthy and full-of-love family environment. IT'S BEAUTIFUL! But it doesn't stop there! Inspired by this journey of pain, acceptance, and reconnection, Gabriel is transforming his experience into a book and a monologue that promise to move Brazil! A sensitive work about identity, spirituality, and the power of true love, that one that doesn't judge. "An older man can talk about this to a woman, to his children, to society... I think it's very special and necessary", he said, proud of his father. "It takes courage to transform. It's painful and delicious. And it's a search that will last as long as I exist." Remember that Gabriel took his first steps on stage in church, singing, acting, and even taking risks in the circus! But over time, his faith drifted away from traditional religion, making room for a freer and more loving spirituality. Now, at 36, he faces the mission of telling a real story that can help many people understand that love, yes, is what saves us. And look... we're already ready to applaud standing up!

US President Donald Trump indicated on Friday (9) that he could reduce tariffs on Chinese products to 80% before the scheduled trade negotiations between the two powers this weekend. 'Tariffs of 80% on China seem certain!' Trump wrote on his Truth Social network. This would mean a significant reduction in the tariffs on the Asian giant, which are currently set at 145% and, for some products, have accumulated exorbitant 245%. Trump added that 'it depends on Scott B.', referring to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who will represent Washington in the negotiations to be held in Switzerland this weekend. The Chinese delegation will be led by Vice Premier He Lifeng. In his post, Trump did not specify whether he believes the 80% tariff should be the final measure applied to Chinese imports when the trade war ends, or if it would be an intermediate step. In another post, minutes earlier, the Republican wrote in capital letters that 'China should open its market to the United States. It would be great for them! Closed markets don't work anymore!' These comments come a day after Washington announced an agreement with the United Kingdom, the first since Trump launched his global tariff war last month. Several governments are talking to the United States to try to ease the tariffs, which vary from a minimum of 10% to the 145% imposed on China. The American president said that the agreement with London would be the first of many and that he expects negotiations with the European Union and China to bear fruit soon.

The official inflation rate in Brazil, measured by the IPCA (Broad National Consumer Price Index), decelerated to 0.43% in April, after reaching 0.56% in March, according to data released on Friday (9) by the IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics). The new result was in line with the median forecast of the financial market, which was 0.42%, according to Bloomberg. The range of estimates was between 0.38% and 0.6%. With the April data, the IPCA accumulated a 5.53% increase over 12 months, according to the IBGE. The result is above the 5.48% registered in March. The accumulation remains distant from the 4.5% ceiling of the inflation target pursued by the BC (Central Bank). In an attempt to curb prices, the institution has raised the basic interest rate, Selic, which reached 14.75% per year this week, the highest level in almost two decades. The rate hike aims to cool down demand for goods and services and thus reduce inflationary pressure. The possible collateral effect is a loss of momentum in economic activity, as credit becomes more expensive for consumption and productive investments. The BC is now pursuing the inflation target continuously from 2025, abandoning the so-called calendar year (January to December). In the new model, the target will be considered unfulfilled when the IPCA accumulated remains outside the tolerance interval for six consecutive months, ranging from 1.5% (floor) to 4.5% (ceiling). The central target is 3%. The financial market projects an IPCA of 5.53% by the end of this year, according to the latest edition of the Focus bulletin, released on Monday (5) by the BC. The forecast has fallen in the last three weeks of the survey, but remains distant from the 4.5% ceiling. The Lula government has celebrated positive economic data, including GDP growth, income growth, and unemployment reduction to historic lows. On the other hand, food inflation has become a concern for the president and his supporters. The scarcity of these products mainly affects low-income families and is pointed out as one of the main reasons for Lula's approval rating decline in early 2024. Food prices rose in a scenario of climate problems and high dollar.

SÃO PAULO, SP (FOLHAPRESS) A study published on Friday (9) in the scientific journal International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, conducted by researchers from the University of São Paulo (USP), the State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), and the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), found that the average Brazilian loses 5.89 minutes of life per portion of food consumed. The study evaluated the impact of the 33 foods that contribute most to the energy intake of Brazilians, and the worst of them was the filled biscuit, which results in a loss of 39.69 minutes of healthy life, followed by pork (-36.09 minutes). These foods are part of the 1,141 items listed in the National Food Survey. The analysis was made using the Nutritional Health Index (HENI), a score that estimates the number of minutes gained or lost based on the nutritional characteristics of the items. The environmental impact of the portions in terms of greenhouse gas emissions and water usage was also calculated. The results show that most of the most consumed foods in Brazil were evaluated negatively, being associated with the loss of healthy minutes (according to HENI). It considers the negative or positive effects of dietary components on the risk of chronic diseases and mortality, such as sodium, trans fat, processed meats - which are negative -; and fruits, fibers, and whole grains - which are positive. Of the 33 evaluated, 23 had a negative HENI, and only 10 were found to be positive. The study finds that, despite having beneficial foods such as rice, beans, and bananas, the Brazilian diet is marked by the growing consumption of meat and ultra-processed foods, to the detriment of fruits and vegetables. 'This may be contributing to the increase in non-communicable diseases, such as obesity,' says Marhya Júlia Leite, a nutritionist and graduate student in the Master's program in Public Health Nutrition at the School of Public Health at USP, one of the authors of the article. By order, the worst-rated foods were the filled biscuit (-39.69 minutes), pork (-36.09 minutes), and margarine (-24.76 minutes). On the other hand, the best evaluations were for general juices (+17.22 minutes) and freshwater fish (+17.22 minutes), bananas (+8.08 minutes), and beans (+6.53 minutes). As a country of churrasco, Brazil tends to have a high consumption of meat, which was poorly evaluated. In addition to pork, beef was evaluated at -21.86 minutes. However, the combination of rice and beans (+2.11 minutes), which is very present in the population's plates, was evaluated positively. The researchers emphasize that not all meals with these foods take away minutes of life, but the data point to the general imbalance of the current eating pattern of the average Brazilian, in general. 'This reinforces the importance of seeking balance, with a greater presence of vegetables in the diet and a lower consumption of animal products,' says Leite. According to her, the data can help guide public policies that encourage the consumption of plant-based foods and reduce the consumption of ultra-processed products.

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said on Friday (9) that she 'likes praise in general' after US President Donald Trump called her 'fantastic'. 'She is so fantastic... I'm eager to meet her,' Trump told reporters on Thursday, announcing a commercial agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom, the first since he launched his trade war. The European Union 'has a huge interest in reaching an agreement. Everyone wants to reach an agreement with the United States, so we're doing it,' Trump added. When asked about Trump's comments, the European Commission chief smiled before emphasizing the importance of a negotiated solution. 'I like praise in general,' Von der Leyen replied during a press conference in Brussels alongside the new German Chancellor, Friedrich Merz. She added that she had 'good conversations' with Trump over the phone and at the funeral of Pope Francis last month. However, 'if I go to the White House, I want to have a package we can discuss. So, it has to be concrete, and I want to have a solution we can both agree on. That's the work we're doing now,' she added. Several governments are in talks with Washington to try to soften the tariffs imposed by Trump, which range from a minimum of 10% to 145% imposed on China. The Republican president announced in April a 20% tariff on most EU products and higher tariffs on dozens of other countries.

The European Union has committed to mobilizing one billion euros (6.3 billion dollars) in revenue generated by frozen Russian assets to support Ukrainian defense companies. 'We have just made available one billion euros for Ukraine's defense industry, so that Ukraine can better defend itself against the Russian invasion,' said EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas in Lviv, western Ukraine. 'The funding will directly support Ukrainian defense companies and enable additional military aid in the coming months, which will be crucial,' she added. Western countries froze almost 300 billion dollars (1.7 trillion reals at current rates) in Russian central bank assets - most of which are located in Europe - after Russia's February 2022 invasion. The EU has decided to use the revenue generated by these assets (mainly interest) to fund support for Ukraine, a move that Moscow calls theft.

French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his satisfaction on Friday (9) with the 'very clear appeal' from his American colleague Donald Trump for an unconditional ceasefire of 30 days in Ukraine. 'Ukraine has agreed to this ceasefire for almost two months. Now I hope Russia will do the same,' Macron said in a message posted on the social network X. The French president added that all parties must work to achieve a ceasefire 'without delay, false pretenses, or delaying tactics.' Trump requested an 'unconditional ceasefire of 30 days' on his Truth Social platform on Thursday, after speaking with Ukrainian leader Volodimir Zelensky. If the Kremlin does not accept this truce, 'we are ready to respond firmly, along with all Europeans and in close coordination with the United States,' Macron warned. On Friday morning, the Norwegian prime minister said that a group of countries in northern Europe and the United Kingdom also supported the American proposal. 'We need a ceasefire, an unconditional ceasefire,' said Jonas Gahr Store to journalists in Oslo, on the sidelines of a meeting of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF, in English), a military coalition formed by the United Kingdom and other countries in northern Europe.

European Union Foreign Ministers traveled to the city of Lviv in western Ukraine on Friday (9) to support the creation of a special tribunal to try crimes committed by Russia since its invasion of Ukraine. The visit is also seen as a symbolic show of support on the same day that Russia is celebrating the end of World War II with a large military parade in Moscow, which the Kremlin is using to boost patriotism. "It is important and symbolic that European partners are standing alongside Ukraine on this day," said Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in a social media post. Shmyhal received delegations from 35 countries and the Council of Europe, including the European Union's chief diplomat, Kaja Kallas. "There will be no impunity, there will be accountability for the crimes committed," Kallas said on Thursday, after a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Warsaw. The special tribunal is planned to prosecute Russia's top leaders for "aggression" for the invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022. It will work in conjunction with the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, which has issued arrest warrants for several Russian leaders, including President Vladimir Putin.

Pope Leo 14 defended Christianity in his first mass homily, held in the Sistine Chapel, Vatican City, on Friday morning. He said that even today, Jesus is often reduced to a charismatic leader or superman, not just among non-believers, but also among many baptized individuals who end up living in practical atheism. According to the Pope, this is the world that has been entrusted to us, and in which, as Pope Francis has often taught us, we are called to witness the joy of faith in Jesus the Savior. The Pope referred to a passage from the Gospel of Matthew where Jesus asks his disciples, 'Who do people say the Son of Man is?' In contrast to the 'answer of the world' about who Jesus is, the Pope spoke of the understanding of ordinary people. For them, the Nazarene is not a charlatan, but a just and courageous man who speaks well and says true things, like other great prophets in the history of Israel. Therefore, they follow him, at least as long as they can do so without too many risks or inconveniences. However, the Pope warned that when they consider him 'just a man', they also abandon him in times of danger, during his Passion, and go away, disappointed. The Pope noted that this impression is current. There are still contexts in which Christianity is considered absurd, for weak and unintelligent people; contexts in which instead of faith, people prefer other securities, such as technology, money, success, power, and pleasure. These are environments where it is not easy to witness or announce the Gospel, and where those who believe are ridiculed, contrasted, despised, or, when very lucky, supported and pitied. The mass, the first of Pope Leo 14, lasted about an hour and a half. After the ceremony, the Pope will lunch with cardinals, the last commitment of the leaders before they are released to return to their homes.

China announced an offensive to combat the smuggling of strategic minerals, a day before starting tariff negotiations with the US, during which the issue of restrictions on rare earths may be addressed. Chinese authorities, including those from the commerce, security, and customs sectors, met in the port city of Shenzhen, in the south of the country, on Friday, September 9. According to an official statement, the agencies agreed to intensify the inspection of exports of strategic mineral resources. During the meeting, authorities said that since China implemented export controls on essential minerals - such as gallium, germanium, antimony, tungsten, and medium and heavy rare earths - some foreign entities have been conspiring with domestic agents and constantly updating their methods of smuggling in an attempt to evade inspection. The countries allegedly involved were not specified.

US President, Donald Trump, stated that a 80% tariff on China seems correct in a post on Truth Social on Friday (9). It depends on Scott Bessent, he wrote, referring to the meeting the US Treasury Secretary will have with Chinese representatives this weekend in Switzerland. The Republican reiterated that China should open its market to the US and that it would be very good for them. Closed markets no longer work.

My Loves, what was just speculation is now a national outburst! After an epic climax that took over the internet on Wednesday (7), William Bonner decided to break his silence live on Jornal Nacional on Thursday (8) - and sent that message straight to the heart of the gossipers on duty! It all started when Bonner and Ilze Scamparini shared the screen during the special coverage of the conclave in the Vatican. But what was supposed to be a historic duo turned into a festival of diverted glances, strategic absences, and an embrace that didn't work out! The web, of course, went wild with theories: fight? disagreement? backstage drama? Well, in the next edition of JN, Bonner decided to open up and reveal an unexpected detail: Ilze is facing a 'long and painful treatment for a knee injury!' Even so, she was a warrior and participated in the transmission directly from the cold European weather. 'I want to thank her again for the demonstration of professionalism she showed yesterday with me. Even with a long, painful treatment for a knee injury, Ilze stayed with us until the end of JN. She was also facing a 14-degree cold and wasn't wearing my spectacular coat that's 20 years old. She wasn't wearing a coat. And that only increases our admiration for this colleague and the way she exercises our profession,' said the presenter, visibly emotional. Bonner tried to give a light touch to the heavy atmosphere, but Ilze's absence from this edition and the cold interaction earlier continue to fuel speculation. Was it just the knee thing... or is there more to it under those Roman roofs?

MasterChef champion Isabella Scherer has launched a brand of cookies, brownies, and cakes for delivery that has caused a stir. The items sell out in a few hours - the tip is to order in the morning. There are three flavors of cookies. Each one costs R$ 21.50 and arrives in a paper bag inside a decorated box, an excessive packaging. The traditional mix of milk and dark chocolate chips is well-balanced, despite the chips having concentrated on one side of the soft and buttery dough. Large chunks of good dark chocolate are a positive point. Another one has cocoa mass with white and milk chocolate chips and cupuaçu pieces. The dough, more crunchy, is scented with cupuaçu, which brings a tangy contrast. It's the most popular and most interesting one. The cookie with sweetened condensed milk and sesame seeds is also popular. The coating is concentrated in the middle and sticks to the bag. Around it, toasted white and black sesame seeds bring an unusual flavor to the dessert, and combine with the orange note in the dough. The sesame seeds mask the sweetened condensed milk and its sour and salty taste is prominent - and it divides opinions. In this case, it's not an ingredient I would look for in a cookie.

Santander Brasil will allow customers to pay their personal loan installments directly on their credit card statement. The so-called Supercrédito is granted through an additional credit limit and has its own fees, which are not the same as the installment payment fee, for example. The product was launched this week. The credit interest starts at 2.69% per month, and the installment period reaches 36 months. Customers who do not have a current account with the bank can request the credit through the Way app, which manages credit cards. The idea of uniting the two products into a single statement is part of the bank's strategy to increase the use of credit cards by its base. With 70.7 million customers in March, including 33.2 million active ones, Santander has been seeking to increase profitability through a closer relationship with those already with the bank. We have been designing a strategy over the past few months to strengthen the transactionality of credit cards, including new solutions. The credit card is the daily life of the customer, it is the preferred product of the Brazilian alongside Pix. Under this guidance, the bank launched in 2023 the installment payment feature, which allows customers to pay a specific purchase directly with the bank after it is made in cash at the establishment. According to Santos, the product has high adoption among high-income customers, in purchases with higher average values. Additionally, Santander also launched the installment payment of bills using the credit card limit. The next step is to allow the payment of Pix according to the same logic. We are centralizing the daily needs of use and financing of customers within the dynamics and statement of the credit card. Both Supercrédito and other products follow Santander's strategy of growing more with credit cards with customers with a better risk profile. In addition to targeting high-income customers, this means working more with those already with the bank, which provides the institution with more data and allows for better risk calculation. Santos took over the credit card area at the end of last year. Under his responsibility and that of other fronts is the development of a new global credit card platform. Fully based on cloud computing, the processor is being built in Brazil and will serve the bank worldwide. Additionally, according to him, the new superapp of the conglomerate, which will integrate customer service to all customers, including non-current account holders, will also have new features in credit cards.

I was preparing my chamomile tea, while setting the living room with lavender scented candles to relax after a frantic day. Suddenly, my phone wouldn't stop vibrating, completely breaking my zen atmosphere. But, being curious as I am, I took a peek at the content and saw that a presenter scolded a renowned reporter. Geez... what a situation! It turns out that during the show 'A Tarde é Sua' on RedeTV!, presenter Sonia Abrão revealed that she didn't like the attitude of Ilze Scamparini with William Bonner during the live entrance of Jornal Nacional at the Vatican. Sonia claimed that the correspondent from Globo created an unnecessary atmosphere by remaining serious during Bonner's lively interaction. 'But she's an unpleasant person. How does she do that with Bonner? It looks like it was the roof's punchline that caused the commotion. But anyway, she couldn't do what she did. It was very ugly', she detonated. According to journalist Valmir Moratelli, from the Gente column, the discomfort between Ilze and Bonner originated from a joke that JN anchor William Bonner made. According to the columnist, Bonner had joked that the colleague would descend from the roof to cover the Conclave. When Ilze heard the comment, she interpreted it as inconvenient, which left her with a closed-off expression during the live link. Gee, did they resolve things backstage? I'm dying to know!

After a intense and exhausting training session, I took a refreshing shower with an expensive exfoliant that left me super relaxed... And then I started browsing through stories and stumbled upon a statement from an influencer about a ridiculous process he's going through... I almost fell over when I found out what it was about. Well, after being sentenced by the Mato Grosso Justice to pay a R$200,000 fine for ridiculing a young man with skeletal deformities, influencer Carlinhos Maia used social media to comment on the judicial decision. "I think this is absurd. And I'm going to say why I think this is strange. At the time, this guy was a meme on the internet. I had no idea if he was Brazilian or from anywhere else," he started. "In 2023, Maia published an image comparing himself to the young man (Reproduction/Instagram)", "In 2023, Maia published a story making fun of a plastic surgery he had done on his chin and, in a mocking tone, compared the possible post-operative result to Luiz Antônio dos Santos' face, who has facial deformities. After the negative backlash, the influencer deleted the post and apologized to the young man, confessing that he didn't intend to offend him. "I had a small chin, a follower sent me the image [of the young man] and I posted it. I immediately deleted it and apologized because I realized it was a congenital issue," he defended himself. However, the Mato Grosso Justice determined that Carlinhos Maia must pay the young man R$200,000 in moral damages. The content creator said he will appeal the decision.

Amores, I was preparing a cheese and dried fruit board to start the Globo soap opera marathon on my 98-inch smart TV. But a friend from Projac tells me about the strong emotional release related to a priest's mental health. It turns out that on Thursday (8), the iconic Ana Maria Braga received the charismatic Father Fábio de Melo on the morning program Mais Você. During the chat, the priest opened up about the tough battle against depression. "I've always been a melancholic boy. At a certain point, I realized that it had a name. Depression is not just a characteristic, it's something that, when it takes everything, takes away the will to live", he confessed. The presenter highlighted how essential it is, a topic that is still seen as taboo by a large part of society, to be addressed by prominent figures. The priest reinforced: "I get emotional because telling what we feel is a way to recognize the suffering of others. I've always been like that. I think I became a priest because I can't be indifferent to pain." [caption id="attachment_3093444" align="aligncenter" width="600"] The Priest opened up about his mental health (Reproduction/TV Globo)[/caption] During the conversation with Ana Maria Braga, the priest also commented on the possibility that his mother's death intensified his current depression. "My mother's death is an event that will never end. She was a woman who loved living. The way it affected me is profound", he revealed. And in relation to the disease, Father Fábio de Melo justified that the fast pace of daily life ends up depriving people of the opportunity to feel alive. "We don't suffer as much as we need to suffer. We live as if life doesn't allow us to live until the end. I think people don't have time for grief, don't have time for the end of a relationship, don't have time because we condition ourselves to a pace that our soul is not prepared for", he concluded.

More than 30 people, mostly teenagers, were arrested in Australia for a series of attacks on men they lured through apps aimed at the LGBTQ community, police said on Friday. In some cases, the attackers posted videos of their assaults on social media, the Victoria police department said, identifying several criminal groups. The suspects, mostly aged between 13 and 20, were accused of contacting their victims through dating apps or social media. When they met their victims, they assaulted, threatened, or robbed them, shouting homophobic slurs. It mainly happened on Grindr, but also on Scruff and Snapchat. The arrests of the 30 suspects began in October. The group includes three 13, 14, and 15-year-olds accused of armed robbery and violent disturbances. There is no room for this kind of behavior in our society. It will not be tolerated, said Victoria Police Superintendent Carolyn Deer in a statement. The police said they were working with dating app companies as part of the investigation to provide users with options to report such situations.

China congratulated Pope Leo XIV on his election to lead the Catholic Church on Friday (9) and expressed hope that under his leadership, the Vatican will continue to engage in 'constructive dialogue'. "We hope that under the leadership of the new pope, the Vatican will continue to establish a constructive dialogue with China and maintain a deep communication on international issues of mutual interest," said Lin Jian, spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Robert Francis Prevost, 69, was elected on Thursday as the successor to Pope Francis and the first pontiff born in the United States. He chose the name Leo XIV. With a moderate image and seen as close to the first Latin American pope, the 267th pope arrives at the throne of St. Peter in a scenario of division within the Church and growing tension worldwide.

Pope Leo XIV issued an alert on Friday (9) against the idea of reducing the figure of Jesus to a 'charismatic leader or superman', in an apparent message to evangelical Christians in his first mass as leader of the Catholic Church. 'Even today, there are still contexts in which Jesus, although appreciated as a man, is simply reduced to a kind of charismatic leader or superman, and this is not only among non-believers, but also among many baptized people, who end up living, at this level, a practical atheism', he said in his first homily as pope.

The use of public resources to return the values deducted from INSS (National Social Security Institute) retirees and pensioners is causing concern in the Lula government. The debate on how to explain to the public the use of Treasury money to compensate the victims of fraud has marked two tense meetings that preceded an interview on Thursday (8) at the Planalto Palace. In an atmosphere of discord, the head of the Secom (Presidential Communications Secretariat), Sidônio Palmeira, even made an appeal for convergence. The government's concern is that the narrative prevails that the loss will fall on the taxpayer, while the possibility of forming queues of elderly people at INSS agency doors is another source of unease. As reported by Folha, the government is studying using budget money for restitution. To accelerate the compensation to victims, the idea is for the Executive to bear at least part of the expenses and seek future reimbursement from fraudulent entities. According to the investigation by the Federal Police and the CGU (General Comptroller's Office), unauthorized deductions in INSS pensions and benefits gained strength from 2019, during Jair Bolsonaro's presidency, and reached billions of reals from 2023, during Lula's third term. The restitution will depend on proof that the deduction was made without the beneficiary's authorization. The news that this is a solution being studied irritated the president's collaborators. On Wednesday (7), during the first preparatory meeting for the interview, the executive secretary of the Civil House, Miriam Belchior, complained that the information had reached the press. As soon as she entered the meeting, she also told the Finance Minister, Dario Durigan, that he had admitted using resources from the PAC (Growth Acceleration Program) and emendments for replenishment. The INSS president, Gilberto Waller Júnior, said he had not mentioned this hypothesis in his interview the previous day about the restitution plan. During a meeting with a group that included ministers, technicians, and advisors, Miriam asked if he had read the newspapers. Miriam also interrupted Waller Júnior when he suggested that, in addition to phone and app, Correios agencies be made available for retirees to report unauthorized deductions in their benefits. Miriam, according to reports, rejected the idea of retirees forming queues at agency doors. She also recommended not taking the ongoing investigations into consignments to the interview. Although they pointed out the uncertainty over values and restitution schedule as a problem, the meeting participants agreed on the need for an interview, even in response to opposition criticism. From Russia, where he is on an official visit, Lula is following the developments in the case. In the morning of Thursday, hours before the meeting, the head of the Civil House, Rui Costa, entered the preparatory meeting asking who had told the president that the deductions had not been interrupted. The Minister of Social Security, Wolney Queiroz, presented himself. He reported that he had explained to Lula that the deductions occurred due to a lack of time to suspend the system, but the money had not reached the entities and would be returned to the beneficiaries. He said he had reaffirmed to the president that the monthly association fees deducted from pensions and benefits in April would be returned in the May payment. Costa claimed that the president is busy and may be upset by receiving fragmented information during his activities. The Attorney General of the Union, Jorge Messias, suggested that only one emissary be sent to report to Lula on the case's progress. After this meeting, which took place in Sidônio's office, Wolney, Messias, Waller, and the head of the CGU, Vinícius de Carvalho, gave a press conference, without advancing on dates and necessary amounts for restitution. Standing next to the table, Sidônio accompanied the interview. Just before the end and immediately after the Vatican's white smoke, the publicist whispered to Messias. The minister concluded his last response, reiterating that all efforts to restore the money to INSS beneficiaries will be made.

A 14-year-old girl died after being attacked with scissors by a classmate inside a private school in Uberaba, Minas Gerais, on Thursday morning. The victim was rushed to the hospital, but did not survive her injuries. The attacker, also a minor, was arrested by the Military Police hours later. The crime occurred during a 9th-grade class at the Colégio Livre Aprender, located in the Universitário neighborhood. According to the school, the attack happened during a class. The motive behind the attack is still unknown. In a statement, the school said that a teacher who is also a medical student provided first aid to the girl until the arrival of the Mobile Emergency Care Service (Samu). The medical team tried to resuscitate her, but the student did not survive. The suspect fled the scene, but was found and arrested by the Military Police in the late afternoon. He was taken to the Civil Police Delegation, where the investigation will continue. As a result of the incident, school classes and activities have been suspended indefinitely. The school is offering psychological support to the school community. The Uberaba City Hall also issued a statement, lamenting the incident and announcing that it will reinforce actions to promote a culture of peace and emotional care in the city's schools.

Two men were arrested and a stolen vehicle was recovered by the Military Police of the Federal District (PMDF) on Wednesday night (8), during the Operation Zero Alcohol, in Asa Sul. The stop was made by a team from the Traffic Police Battalion (BPTran), around 11pm. During the inspection, the police identified that the driver, 41 years old, was driving a car with a tampered license plate. After checking the system, it was found that the vehicle had been stolen about two months ago. Inside the vehicle, besides the driver, there was another man, who has several police records, including crimes such as homicide and drug trafficking. According to the corporation, he is a member of the Criminal Comboio do Cão (CDC-DF) gang, active in the Federal District. Given the situation, the two suspects were detained and taken, along with the vehicle, to the 1st Police Station. The occurrence was registered and legal procedures are underway.

The public has until this Sunday (11th) to visit the exhibition 'Other Landscapes', on display at the Galeria 3 of the National Museum of the Republic. With free admission, the show brings together 27 artists from different regions of the country and proposes a multifaceted look at the concept of landscape, addressing themes such as belonging, ancestry, and contemporary relationships with nature. To mark the closing, the Museum has prepared a special program. On Friday (10th), from 1:30 pm to 6:00 pm, the seminar 'Experience in the Landscape' will be held at the Auditório 2. The activity is part of the 2025 Lecture Cycle and is a result of a partnership between the National Museum, the University of Brasília, the State University of Santa Catarina, MidiaLabBR, and the exhibition itself. Artists from the show, curators, and researchers will participate in the debate, bringing different perspectives on the concept of landscape in art and culture. On the 10th and 11th, at 10:00 am, free cultural mediation activities will also be held at the exhibition, with the presence of part of the curatorial team and invited artists. The idea is to offer the public a more intimate experience with the works and the reflections they propose. Curated by Juliana Crispe, Other Landscapes expands our understanding of what landscape is in contemporary art, going beyond aesthetics and touching on urgent issues of the present. 'The exhibition is composed of artists from different regions and ethnicities, and invites us to see the landscape as a space of ancestry and consciousness,' says Juliana. Already Fran Favero, director of the Museum, highlights the social role of art in this context: 'This show responds to urgent desires of society. It is essential that exhibitions be connected to themes as relevant as belonging and the environment.'

O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva participa, nesta sexta-feira (9), em Moscou, na Rússia, da parada cívico-militar que celebra os 80 anos de vitória da União Soviética sobre a Alemanha nazista na Segunda Guerra Mundial. Nesta data, em 1945, o Exército Vermelho anunciou a rendição incondicional dos alemães, pondo fim ao conflito que devastou a Europa ocidental e matou dezenas de milhões de pessoas por mais de meia década (1939-1945). Na Rússia, a data é conhecida como Dia da Vitória e é marcada por uma grande celebração nacional. Lula está no país desde quarta-feira (7), a convite de Vladimir Putin, com quem manterá reunião bilateral ao longo do dia. De acordo com a agenda oficial divulgada pelo Palácio do Planalto, Lula inicia a programação às 10h, horário local (4h pelo horário de Brasília) com a participação na cerimônia principal, na Praça Vermelha, centro da capital russa. Em seguida, o presidente participa da cerimônia de oferenda floral no túmulo do soldado desconhecido. A agenda prossegue com um almoço oferecido por Putin no Palácio do Kremlin, sede do governo russo. Na parte da tarde, ainda manhã no Brasil, Lula e Putin se reúnem em agenda bilateral.

The 4th Civil Court of the District Federal and Territorial Court (TJDFT) upheld the condemnation of the concessionaire for breach of contract to sell an automobile intended for use by a person with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The collegiate court held that there was a contractual breach and failure to provide service. The case concerns a person with ASD, whose parents purchased the vehicle in their name to assist with their daily routine of therapies and school transportation. To acquire the vehicle, the author's parents made a down payment, under the promise that the vehicle would be delivered within 30 business days. The author claims that, subsequently, his parents were informed by the seller that there had been a problem with the manufacturer's system and that, therefore, they would no longer have information about the vehicle's invoicing. After more than 80 days, the vehicle had not even been invoiced, and even after the lawsuit was filed, the problem had not been resolved. The Civil Court of the Recanto das Emas condemned the establishment. The defense appealed, arguing that there was no failure to provide service, as it had tried to negotiate with the manufacturer for a vehicle identical to the one originally purchased, with the only difference being the white roof, but the author's parents refused. It argues that the fine should not be applied, as they returned the amount paid by the authors as a down payment and tried to find a solution to the problem in various ways. Finally, it claims that there is no moral damage to be compensated. In the judgment of the appeal, the Court explains that when the concessionaire does not deliver the vehicle within the agreed-upon period, it breaches its obligation. It adds that the assertion that it is not responsible for the delay in the manufacturing process, under the claim that this is exclusive to the manufacturer, is unacceptable, especially since there is a contractual provision that the invoicing would be carried out by the concessionaire. Moreover, the collegiate court notes that there was a failure to provide service, as the contract was not fulfilled, especially regarding the vehicle's color specified in the contract. It highlights that the contractual fine is also applicable. Finally, for the presiding judge, 'since the failure to provide service is characterized by the breach of contractual obligations, which ultimately led to the termination of the contract, it is legitimate to apply the stipulated fine.'

By unanimous decision, the 3rd Criminal Court of the Federal District and Territories Court (TJDFT) maintained the conviction of a man for racial insult and threat, following an episode that occurred in June 2021. The collegial decision accepted the accusation's request for moral damages. According to the DF Justice, the defendant must be condemned to pay compensation for the moral damages caused, because an explicit request was made in this regard in the indictment. The defendant must pay R$ 5,000 in moral damages caused by the racial insult. According to the process, in June 2021, in Asa Norte, Brasília/DF, after a dispute over parking, the parties went to the police station because the defendant had threatened the victims with a knife. However, when they left the police station, the accused offended the honor of the victim by calling her a 'monkey'. The defendant was convicted of racial insult and threat. In the appeal, the accusation requested a minimum value for moral damages. The defendant's defense requested acquittal for the crime of threat, arguing that the victims did not manifest fear in the face of the alleged threat. It also argued that no expertise was conducted to prove the object's harmful capacity. When judging the appeals, the Court pointed out that the materiality and authorship were proven in the process and emphasized that, after the procedures were completed at the police station, witnesses, including military police, witnessed the defendant uttering a racial offense against the victim. In this sense, the collegial decision explains that it was found, through the accused's conduct, that he had the intention of discriminating against the victim because of her race or ethnicity, 'since the term 'monkey' is historically used to belittle black people, which constitutes qualified insult', wrote the judge.

The government of US President Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to allow him to revoke the legal status of 532,000 immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela who have temporary residence authorization, known as parole. The government tried to revoke the legal status of these immigrants in March, who arrived in the United States under a program launched by former Democratic President Joe Biden called CHNV, a reference to the initials of those countries. In October 2022, the government of Democrat granted permission for a group of Venezuelans to enter the country legally, as long as they passed a criminal background check, had a sponsor, and were vaccinated. In January 2023, the measure was extended to Haiti, Cuba, and Nicaragua. The government's legal advisor, John Sauer, requested the lifting of an order from a lower court that prevents the government from ending humanitarian protections for immigrants from these four countries. Last week, the Trump government also requested that the Supreme Court, which has a conservative majority, support its proposal to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS), which prevents the deportation of over 350,000 Venezuelans. Trump campaigned on a promise to deport millions of irregular immigrants and put the entire government machine to work towards that goal.

The United States Department of Justice has opened a criminal investigation into New York State Attorney General Letitia James, one of President Donald Trump's main adversaries, on suspicion of mortgage fraud, the press announced on Thursday. The investigation follows a complaint by the head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), appointed by Trump, that Letitia seemed to have falsified records related to properties in Virginia and New York to obtain better loan terms. Letitia denied any irregularities and said last month that she would not be intimidated. Newspapers Albany Times-Union and The Guardian, which first reported the case, said the criminal investigation into Letitia's real estate dealings involved the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In August 2022, Letitia filed a lawsuit against Trump for inflating his assets to obtain better loan terms, in which he was ordered to pay $455 million, a sentence that Trump appealed. According to the Washington Post, a grand jury issued subpoenas related to a mortgage application in which Letitia declared that a Virginia house was her primary residence. In a letter to the US Attorney General, Pam Bondi, Letitia's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, said that his client was helping her niece buy the property, and that the documents clearly indicated that she would not live in the house. Lowell emphasized that the FHFA chief, William Pulte, had "chosen to pick" an error in the loan application package.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will participate in the civic-military parade in Moscow, Russia, on Friday (9th), to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany in World War II. On this date in 1945, the Red Army announced the unconditional surrender of the Germans, bringing an end to the conflict that devastated Western Europe and killed tens of millions of people over more than half a decade (1939-1945). In Russia, the date is known as Victory Day and is marked by a large national celebration. Lula has been in the country since Wednesday (7th), at the invitation of Vladimir Putin, with whom he will hold a bilateral meeting during the day. According to the official schedule released by the Planalto Palace, Lula will start the program at 10:00 am local time (4:00 am in Brasilia) with the main ceremony at Red Square, the center of the Russian capital. He will then participate in the wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The agenda continues with a lunch hosted by Putin at the Kremlin Palace, the seat of the Russian government. In the afternoon, Lula and Putin will hold a bilateral meeting, with expected announcements of commercial partnerships and the signing of agreements in the fields of science and technology.

From rebuking the Vice President of the United States to taking a stance against the death penalty, Pope Leo XIV has shown no fear in expressing his opinions on social media. When J.D. Vance stated that Christians should first love their families, then their neighbors, then their community members, and finally their compatriots, Robert Prevost did not hesitate to comment. He used theology to contradict the Vice President, whose religious views he had rebuked on several occasions. "J.D. Vance is mistaken: Jesus does not ask us to categorize our love for others," Prevost posted, which received tens of thousands of likes. Bento XVI was the first pope to tweet on the @Pontifex account in 2012, but Prevost was the first to become pope with a long history of social media participation. He opened his account on X 14 years ago, during which he published over 400 messages, expressing his opinion on sensitive topics such as racism, sexual abuse by clergy, the pandemic, the George Floyd case, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. As one would expect from an American who lived for decades in Peru, immigration is an important theme for the new pope, who shared criticisms of Donald Trump's migration policies. In 2017, Prevost published an article on his account stating that the United States was living "a dark era" of its history due to Trump's ban on refugee entry into the country during his first term. Days after Floyd's death at the hands of a police officer in 2020, Prevost called on his fellow Church leaders to speak out. "We need to hear more from Church leaders, reject racism, and seek justice," he posted. Prevost also called on the Vatican to expel clergy who had sexually abused minors. "If you are a victim of sexual abuse by a priest, report it," he declared to a Peruvian newspaper this month. In 2014, Prevost expressed opposition to the death penalty: "It is inadmissible," he posted on X, which he repeated in interviews, masses, and public statements. "We must always be in favor of life," he told Peruvian journalists. The new pope uses humor, as when he said that many people are intelligent, although most are asymptomatic. The pace of his social media posts increased during the pandemic, but it is unclear if he will maintain it during his papacy.

Uruguayan Daniel Fernández Strauch, one of the survivors of the Andes tragedy, which was depicted in the film "The Society of the Snow", died on Thursday (8) in Montevideo at the age of 79, according to his relatives. Fernández Strauch was one of the protagonists of the odyssey experienced by 16 Uruguayans who survived a plane crash in the Andes Mountains in 1972, enduring extreme cold for 72 days before being rescued, a story that moved the world. Daniel is gone, but he didn't leave without fighting, as he did throughout his life, setting an example", wrote the director of "The Society of the Snow", Spanish J.A. Bayona, announcing the death of the Uruguayan on his social media. In Montevideo, Pablo Vierci, author of the homonymous book, confirmed to AFP the death of his friend. "He was sick for a long time", Vierci commented, without providing further details. Bayona, whose feature film about the episode known as the "Miracle of the Andes" was nominated for the Oscar for Best International Film, described Fernández Strauch as a man with a "giant heart". "On the mountain, it was his task to take on a very difficult role", the filmmaker recalled. Fernández Strauch, who was 26 years old when he was stranded on the mountain, was one of those who organized and distributed food among his companions, along with his cousins Eduardo and Adolfo Strauch. It was "the most horrible task of all", he acknowledged in an interview with AFP in 2023. The survivors, mostly members of the amateur Uruguayan rugby team Old Christians Club, had to eat the flesh of the dead, one of the most painful aspects of the tragedy, in which 29 people died. An agronomical engineer by profession, Fernández Strauch is the fourth survivor of the Andes accident to pass away, after Álvaro Mangino (2025), José Luis Inciarte (2023), and Javier Methol (2015).

Suddenly, the bells rang out and the churches in Peru began to receive excited faithful for the election of Pope Leo XIV, the American who also chose to be Peruvian and left the memory of a man close to the needy. 'He is a good man even with the bad,' recalls Father Juan de Dios Rojas, 73, about the then Bishop Robert Prevost during his passage through El Callao, the port near Lima. He highlights the coincidence of Leo XIV with Francis in defending the environment and his zeal for justice to the victims of abuses committed by members of the clergy. 'He is very careful in his treatment and seeks to reach the needy through all means,' the priest tells AFP. His chapel, Santa María de la Reconciliación, opened its doors with an unusual jubilation. The photo of the new Catholic leader will be displayed and there will be a special ceremony of gratitude tonight. Prevost, 69, from Chicago, arrived in Peru four decades ago. Before becoming bishop of Chiclayo in 2015, he adopted Peruvian nationality. As bishop, Francis sent him on a special mission to El Callao in 2020. 'From Chicago to Chiclayo,' the American embassy summarized the double nationality of the leader of the Catholic Church on its social media. In his first speech at the Vatican, Leo XIV briefly spoke in Spanish to remember his 'beloved diocese of Chiclayo,' where the 'faithful people' gave 'so much' to 'continue being a faithful Church of Jesus Christ.' Prevost left Peru in 2023 to take on new responsibilities at the Vatican. - Continuing the work of Francis - The bells also rang out in Lima Cathedral. The conclave's decision caught many faithful by surprise. Some of them even did not know about the double nationality of the new leader of the Catholic Church. 'The Pope is Peruvian; it's a sign that God is sending someone who will solve the country's problems. He eats ceviche, macaroni, bean stew with lamb, anticuchos! He will surpass Pope Francis,' said Salvador Oliva Ramos, a 75-year-old retiree, to AFP. Other faithful displayed large Peruvian flags outside the cathedral. Inside the complex, the image of the new pope's first message was projected throughout the day on a screen. 'I cried with joy when I heard, it's a blessing for Peruvians. Although he was born in the United States, he lived in Peru for many years,' said lawyer Carolina Flores, 38, to AFP. 'Hearing his speech is the continuation of Francis, we're happy,' she added at the foot of Lima Cathedral, where a group of faithful gathered after learning of the Vatican's vote. Among the faithful, the names of Leo XIV and his predecessor seemed to merge. 'Let's have faith that he will follow the legacy of Francis, I love that he speaks Spanish,' added Chilean tourist Josefa Fuenzalida.

The United States announced on Thursday that a new foundation will be responsible for distributing humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip, instead of the United Nations, as the two-month Israeli blockade has caused a severe shortage in the Palestinian territory. The State Department spokesperson, Tammy Bruce, said that the foundation is non-governmental and will make the announcement soon, without providing details. We welcome measures to ensure that urgent food aid reaches Gaza quickly, so it actually reaches those it is intended for. It cannot fall into the hands of terrorists like Hamas. Israel has imposed a two-month blockade on the Gaza Strip, which has led to a alarming reduction of supplies - from fuel to medicines - in the territory of 2.4 million inhabitants. The Israeli government denies the existence of a humanitarian crisis and promises to increase pressure on Hamas. Israel has criticized the United Nations' intervention for a long time, considering it to be partial, and has banned the UN agency responsible for managing aid to Palestinian refugees. When asked about the lack of a role for the UN, whose efforts were blocked by Israel, Tammy replied: Endless press statements and appeasing Hamas did not provide food, medicine or shelter to those in need.

Brasília, 08 - The Lula government has concluded the drafting of two bills to regulate digital platforms. The texts received approval at the end of April, and now the involved ministers must meet to discuss the best political moment to send them to Congress. One of the projects was built by the Secretariat of Digital Rights (Sedigi), from the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, and the other by the Secretariat of Economic Reforms (SRE), from the Ministry of Finance. Both were in the final adjustments in an interministerial working group at the Civil House. The Sedigi proposal is a kind of Consumer Protection Code for internet users. The text proposes measures to mitigate risks according to the digital service offered and focuses more on consumer rights than punishing platforms. For example, it aims to provide greater transparency to social network users, such as terms of use and identification of advertising. It also obliges companies to employ proactive measures to remove content that constitutes serious crime, such as child sexual exploitation, terrorism, and incitement to suicide and self-harm, especially among children and adolescents. The Sedigi's concern was to propose a different logic from the 2630/2020 project, known as the Fake News Bill, which was buried in April last year after losing political viability. The project thought up by the Finance Ministry, on the other hand, targets the social media platform market and deals with economic and competitive aspects. The text expands, above all, the power of the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade) to investigate and define new obligations for companies. The idea is to combat, for example, potential monopolies in the provision of services, ads, or searches, and other forms of abuse of power.

Wildfires that devastated more than 30 million hectares of land in the country last year were largely caused by criminal activities. This is according to the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (Ibama), which has issued fines to hundreds of people. "Ibama identified and is punishing 242 people for these large-scale wildfires in 2024. Other cases are still under analysis. These 242 include fines and other administrative measures totaling over R$ 460 million," said the director of Environmental Protection at the agency, Jair Schmitt, at a press conference on Thursday (8) to present data on deforestation and wildfires in the first months of 2025. "One of the actions we are taking to prevent this is identifying areas with higher risk of these fires and sending electronic notifications, notifications by edict, to the owners to adopt measures and know that Ibama is monitoring," he added. The environmental agency also reported that it is maintaining and expanding the presence of patrol teams in the most critical areas. Extreme drought The volume of wildfires last year exceeded the size of the territory burned in the previous year by 79%, equivalent to an area the size of Italy, according to MapBiomas. The situation was exacerbated, in the assessment of government officials, by the extreme drought that affected the country, especially in the North region. "It has been two consecutive years of severe drought in the Amazon. This has to do with the effects of climate change, El Niño with the warming of the North Atlantic, drought in the Amazon, the forest becomes more vulnerable, and then the fires were of much greater magnitude," explained the extraordinary secretary for Deforestation Control and Territorial Environmental Order of the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, André Lima. Reduction In the data for 2025, according to the secretary, there is a reduction of up to 70% in the number of hotspots in the Amazon, between January and April, and a drop of over 90% in the number of hotspots in the Pantanal, the two most affected biomes in recent years. Despite the more favorable climate situation, the government has observed an increase in deforestation rates in both the Amazon and the Cerrado in the last month of April, which has raised an alert for the adoption of measures that can reverse the scenario, which is still one of reduction in accumulated indicators.

The official profile of the Chamber of Deputies committed an unusual error by mentioning the name of the president of the Chamber itself in a publication on X (former Twitter) on Thursday (8). While congratulating the choice of the new Pope Leo 14, the page mistakenly marked influencer Hugo Gloss instead of Deputy Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB). Hugo Gloss is a journalist and content creator focused on celebrity culture, with 21.5 million followers on Instagram. Shortly after the mistake, the original post was deleted and replaced with a new one with the correct name of the Chamber's president. However, screenshots of the original post quickly circulated on social media and messaging apps like WhatsApp. The deputy himself commented on the situation with humor in a video. "I think you all saw that a communication employee at the Chamber ended up confusing me with my namesake, Hugo Gloss, who is much more popular than me," he said. Regarding the nomination of the new Pope, Deputy Hugo Motta stated that he hopes the American-Peruvian cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, now Pope Leo 14, will continue the legacy of the Argentine Jorge Bergoglio, Pope Francis. "He has the mission to expand reconciliation. We, followers of Christian faith, wish him much wisdom, faith, and energy for the new pontiff," Motta said.

The tariffs between entities that register receivables from credit cards will have a limit starting from June 1st. The Central Bank (BC) approved a resolution on Thursday (8) that regulates the values of operations between card register entities. Through receivables, merchants anticipate the receipt of transactions with credit card transactions. The interoperability tariff remunerates the register entities, being charged when the financier participates in a register entity different from the one chosen by the acquirer (cash register) for registering the receivables of the commercial establishment's operation. The limits will be gradually reduced until 2029. In a statement, the BC said that setting a ceiling for the tariffs will help reduce abuses in a market with little competition. The measure, the agency said, may reduce credit operations guaranteed by payment arrangement receivables. Considering that interoperability tariffs are not subject to competitive pressure, setting limits aims to encourage efficiency in the provision of receivable registration services for payment arrangements and stimulate competition in the credit market based on these receivables, the BC emphasized. Procedures Entities that operate receivables from payment arrangements must submit to the BC a report with a proposal for new maximum values for interoperability tariffs. If they do not want to suggest the new maximum values, they must send the new tariff structure that will come into effect after the start of the validity period. We expect this measure to establish a favorable environment for reducing the cost incurred by financiers in registering contracts that use these financial assets. This reduction, in a more competitive environment, tends to be passed on to commercial establishments. Thus, credit operations guaranteed by payment arrangement receivables will become less burdensome, the BC emphasized in a statement. According to the BC, the imposition of limits was suggested in two public consultations on payment arrangement regulations, one in 2024 and another this year. The information is from Agência Brasil.

As of July 1st, credit, financing, and investment societies, known as finance companies, will be able to issue Real Estate Credit Notes (LCI), a private title designed to provide funds for the granting of real estate loans. The Central Bank (BC) approved a resolution on Thursday (8) authorizing the issuance of this type of institution. In a statement, the BC said that the decision will help boost the real estate credit market in the country. The Central Bank aims to provide greater modernization to these institutions, positioning them more adequately in relation to institutions that perform similar or competitive activities. The Central Bank also stated that the decision was suggested by a public consultation in 2024, when the authority put the consolidation of finance company regulations up for consultation. A tool used by banks to raise funds for the real estate market, LCI traditionally are the main source of funds for market financing without subsidies. Last week, the National Monetary Council (CMN) authorized the use of LCI to finance the new modality of Minha Casa, Minha Vida for families with an income of up to R$12,000 per month. The information is from Agência Brasil.

SÃO PAULO, SP (FOLHAPRESS) - As of now, São Paulo's Metropolitan Guard (Guarda Civil Metropolitana) agents will start monitoring vehicles circulating in the city. The measure has already taken effect, following a agreement signed between the city hall, through the Municipal Secretariat of Urban Security, and the state government, through the Department of Traffic (Detran). According to the Municipal Secretariat of Urban Security, the agents will now have the competence to execute traffic enforcement, issue fines, and take administrative measures when infractions occur that violate the Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB) under the competence of the State Department of Traffic. The agreement also establishes cooperation between the state and municipal governments to promote projects, actions, and campaigns for traffic education to contribute to reducing accidents and fatalities in traffic incidents. 'This agreement will allow our GCM to have a strong presence, especially in combating reckless driving, and prevent vehicles in poor condition from continuing to circulate and putting road safety at risk,' said Mayor Ricardo Nunes (MDB).

São Paulo, 8 - Robert Francis Prevost was born in the United States and spent two decades in Peru, where he was sent in the late 1980s for a formation project for aspirant Augustinians. He also holds Peruvian nationality. According to the Diocese of Chiclayo, where he built most of his religious trajectory, the new pope is a polyglot: he speaks English, Spanish, Italian, French, and Portuguese. He also reads Latin and German. He graduated in Theology from the Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. At 27, he was sent to Rome to study Canon Law at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum). He was ordained a priest on June 19, 1982, at the Augustinian College of Santa Monica. He obtained his licentiate in 1984 and, the following year, while preparing his doctoral thesis, was sent to the Augustinian mission in Chulucanas, Piura region, Peru. In 1987, he defended his doctoral thesis on The Role of the Prior of the Order of St. Augustine and was appointed Director of Vocations and Director of Missions of the Augustinian Province of the Good Counsel, in the American state of Illinois. The following year, he joined the Trujillo mission, also in Peru, as director of the common formation project for Augustinian aspirants from the vicariates of Chulucanas, Iquitos, and Apurímac. After performing various functions in Peru, he was parish administrator of Our Lady of Monserrat from 1992 to 1999. FORMATION In 1999, he was elected prior provincial of the Augustinian Province of the Good Counsel of Chicago. Two years and a half later, he was chosen as prior general, confirmed in 2007 for a second term. In October 2013, he returned to the Augustinian province in Chicago and was director of formation at the Augustinian Convent, first counselor and vicar provincial. He held these positions until Pope Francis appointed him, in 2014, apostolic administrator of the Peruvian diocese of Chiclayo, elevating him to the dignity of bishop as bishop titular of Sufar. Prevost was named bishop of Chiclayo by the Argentine in 2015. During this period, he did not leave politics aside, besides his religious activities. In 2017, when the former Peruvian president Alberto Fujimori received a Christmas pardon, Prevost was critical of the decision and asked the population to reject the pardon in peaceful demonstrations, saying that the former leader should apologize to the victims of his government. In 2018, he was elected second vice-president of the Peruvian Episcopal Conference, where he was also a member of the Economic Council and president of the Culture and Education Commission. And he did not hesitate to speak about corruption in the country. "We have reached a point of rupture in the political level. A new beginning requires not only a change of government, but the moral and ethical recovery of the country at all levels, because high levels of corruption steal hope, especially from the poor and young." The new pope was included among the members of the Congregation for the Clergy in 2019 and, the following year, among the members of the Congregation for Bishops. He also received the pontifical nomination as apostolic administrator of the Peruvian diocese of Callao. ROMA In 2023, Francis called him to Rome as prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops and President of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America, promoting him to archbishop. At the same consistory, he was made a cardinal. Prevost took possession on January 28, 2024, and, as head of the dicastery, participated in the last apostolic voyages of Pope Francis and the first and second sessions of the 14th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on Synodality, held in Rome between 2023 and 2024.

Flamengo players were the target of an attempted robbery in the early hours of Thursday, after arriving in Rio de Janeiro, according to the club. The car carrying goalkeeper Agustín Rossi was hit by four shots. No one was injured. According to the club, when they arrived in the capital at around 5:30 am, after a match in Argentina valid for the Libertadores, some players' cars suffered an attempted robbery on Linha Amarela, in the Bonsucesso neighborhood, in the north of Rio. The car where Rossi was, which is armored, was hit by four shots. Despite the serious occurrence, the attempt did not succeed and none of the athletes or vehicle occupants were injured. According to Flamengo's press office, the attempted robbery did not succeed and all the team's players involved are at home. In a statement, goalkeeper Rossi said he was a 'victim of the lack of security that plagues Rio de Janeiro' and thanked the fans' messages. The Military Police reported that agents from the Highway Patrol Battalion carried out searches in the area and took some victims to the 21st Police Station in Bonsucesso. According to the Civil Police, two vehicles were stolen on Linha Amarela in the morning of the 8th. The agents requested security camera images and other actions are underway to investigate the crime. The Lamsa concessionaire, which manages Linha Amarela, said that a team was dispatched to the scene, at the exit 7 in Bonsucesso, heading towards Barra da Tijuca. However, when they arrived at the location, the driver was no longer there. Flamengo played in Santiago del Estero, where they drew 1-1 with Central Córdoba on Wednesday night at the Único Madre de Ciudades stadium, in the fourth round of Group C of the Libertadores. The players will return to training on Thursday afternoon at the Ninho do Urubu for the match against Bahia on Saturday in the Brasileirão.

São Paulo, 08 - Ricardo Catunda do Nascimento Guedes, the fiscal auditor of the State of São Paulo's Revenue Secretariat, and his wife moved R$ 6.4 million together between January 2019 and June 2024. They had their bank secrecy broken in Operation Barão de Itararé. The auditor is suspected of taking bribes to interfere with the progress of audits, lifting information from processes conducted by colleagues, leaking confidential data from inspections, and alerting business owners about irregularities and planned operations of the Revenue Secretariat. When contacted by Estadão, Luciano Santoro, the lawyer representing the auditor, stated that the auditor 'categorically denies violating functional secrecy and/or engaging in any act of corruption.' As an auditor, his monthly salary is approximately R$ 34,000.

The National Federation of Federal Auditors and Controllers (Unacon Sindical) issued a statement on Thursday, 8, condemning the statements made by the Minister of the Civil House, Rui Costa, regarding the performance of the General Comptroller of the Union (CGU) and its technical staff in auditing the National Institute of Social Security (INSS). The entity demands an immediate retraction from the Minister. The statement was released in response to Costa's statements to the newspaper O Globo, in which he criticizes the head of the CGU, Vinicius Carvalho, for the way the investigation into INSS fraud was conducted by the agency. According to Costa, the role of the CGU is to prevent crime, not to investigate it, like the Federal Police. The statements by the Minister reveal a profound lack of knowledge of the legal attributions of the CGU and the internal auditing process, as well as a serious offense to the technical staff of the agency - which, despite having one of the smallest budgets on the Esplanade and facing a staff shortage, acts with professionalism and commitment to the public interest. According to the entity, Costa's statements constitute a serious offense to the functional staff and the CGU itself, which, despite having one of the smallest budgets on the Esplanade and facing a significant staff shortage, acts with professionalism and dedication to ensure that every cent collected from taxpayers is converted into high-quality public services, as well as tirelessly combating corruption - as in the case of the aforementioned operation.

The former Supreme Federal Court Minister Celso de Mello stated that he does not see any room for former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) to benefit from the resolution approved by the Chamber to suspend the action against Deputy Alexandre Ramagem (PL-RJ). "The resolution shows itself to be absolutely ineffective and therefore inapplicable in relation to the co-accused," he told Estadão. "It has no legal efficacy, meaning that the criminal process instituted against all of them will continue to proceed normally before the Supreme Federal Court." The deputies based themselves on a constitutional rule that authorizes the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate to suspend the progress of criminal processes against parliamentarians, provided that the decision has the support of a majority of the plenary of the Legislative House. Since Ramagem is one of the defendants, the Chamber approved the suspension, in an attempt to also benefit the other defendants in the process, including the former President of the Republic. However, according to the former Minister, this constitutional provision only protects the parliamentarian in the exercise of their mandate and cannot be extended to third parties in the same criminal process. "It is, in reality, the same constitutional-legal reason that prevents a non-parliamentary co-accused from seeking the extension of the parliamentary immunity enjoyed by their litigant, a member of the Legislative Power," he declared. The rule only applies to crimes committed after the diploma. It is based on this provision that the Supreme Court must order the criminal process to continue, in the evaluation of the former Minister. Two crimes attributed to Ramagem are committed after his diploma (qualified damage and deterioration of a listed heritage). He also responds to organized armed criminal organization, coup d'état, and violent abolition of the state of law. Celso de Mello stated that the resolution only applies to the deputy and, even then, only reaches the crimes allegedly committed by him after his diploma. "It is worth noting that the suspension of the process will suspend the penal prescription related to these crimes while the mandate lasts."

São Paulo, 8 - The names chosen by the popes always mean a lot. Bento chose his thinking about 'a new evangelization of Europe', Francisco remembered 'the poor' and the environment in his choice and pontificate. Already the name Leão will bring a series of questions. The predecessor, Pope Leão XIII, entered history as the first pontiff to address, in an encyclical, the growing issue of the working class, workers' rights, and social justice. The document is considered the starting point of the Social Doctrine of the Church - which until then was focused only on theological issues. The option of yesterday may indicate a concern of the new Catholic leader with social justice, a problem that remains strong in a world convulsed by migration crises, climate change, and doubts about the advancement of artificial intelligence. All these themes were widely discussed by Francisco and often put the Argentine Jorge Bergoglio in conflict with global leaders, such as President Donald Trump (USA) and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu (Israel). The encyclical Rerum Novarum, from 1891, aimed to reconcile the working class with the Church, in the face of social changes sweeping across Europe. The new economic order after the Industrial Revolution resulted in the growth of a poor working class that showed a growing tendency towards socialism. Leão XIII had the second longest papacy in history, 25 years, between 1878 and 1903 - only surpassed, according to Catholic tradition, by the apostle Peter. "Leão XIII was the pope of the transition from the 19th to the 20th century, a time when the Church was under attack from both liberals and socialists," says Rodrigo Coppe, coordinator of the postgraduate program in Religious Sciences at the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas (PUC-MG). "He marked that passage of the Church from being entrenched to a Church that dialogues with the people," adds the professor. CONTINUITY For the specialists interviewed by Estadão, Prevost has a moderate profile and is expected to have a pontificate of continuity, although the new pope has a less charismatic and media profile than Francisco. Thus, the adoption of the name Leão XIII dialogues justly with that openness of the Church to society, in a period of great social changes. Father Anderson Pedrosa, rector of PUC-RJ, agrees. "Pope Leão XIII is very known especially for his encyclical on the social and economic transformations of the Industrial Revolution (which began in the mid-19th century). I believe that the choice of the new pope's name is related to the fact that we are at the turn of the 20th to the 21st century in the Technological Revolution." Instead of steam machines, the transformations now take place on smartphone screens and screens that reproduce the challenges of artificial intelligence. Leão XIII, at the time, also sought to approach the Church to contemporary issues, encouraging the study of sciences and the opening to modern philosophical thought, especially with the valorization of Thomas Aquinas as a basis for Catholic theology. He reaffirmed the coexistence of science and religion, present in ecclesiastical doctrine. And he opened the Vatican Secret Archives to qualified researchers, including Ludwig von Pastor, one of the greatest historians of the papacy. The 19th-century pope founded the Vatican Observatory 'so that everyone can see clearly that the Church and its pastors do not oppose true and solid human or divine science, but rather embrace, encourage, and promote it to the maximum'. "Pope Leão XIII was very attentive to Eastern Europe, social revolutions. I think the new pope will move in that direction," said Father Marcial Maçaneiro, professor of Theology at PUC-PR. "He was also responsible for the renewal of Catholic education." PEACE The first pope to choose the name Leão was an important pope for Catholicism, considered 'Doctor of the Church' for his high level of knowledge of Christian doctrine and preaching. He is also known as a promoter of peace in a period of war in the Italian peninsula. Of Italian origin and elected in 440, Leão I was the 45th pope of the Catholic Church and had a memorable papacy to the point of being the first successor of Peter to receive the title of Magno (the Great, in free translation) - the other was Gregory the Great. "Sustainer and promoter of the Primacy of Rome, the 'Pontiff Magno' left for history almost 100 sermons and about 150 letters, in which he demonstrates being a theologian and pastor, zealous for the communion between the various Churches, never forgetting the needs of the faithful," says Vatican News. He would have encouraged charitable works in a Rome 'dominated by scarcity, poverty, injustices, and pagan superstitions'. Moreover, he guided a delegation from Rome to meet with Attila, leader of the Huns, and dissuaded him from continuing the war of invasion of the Italian peninsula in the year 452.

Brasília, 08 - The president of the 1st Panel of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Minister Cristiano Zanin, has scheduled for this Friday, 9, the start of the virtual session that will analyze the resolution of the Chamber of Deputies that provides for the suspension of the criminal action against former President Jair Bolsonaro, Deputy Alexandre Ramagem (PL-RJ) and six other accused of a coup d'état crime. The debate is scheduled to begin at 11am on Friday, 9, and end on Tuesday, 13, at the same time. Minister Alexandre de Moraes, the rapporteur of the criminal action, had requested an extraordinary 24-hour session for the collegiate to analyze the theme. In the dispatch, Moraes highlighted that the process will follow normally until the deliberation of the Panel. Earlier, the President of the Court, Luís Roberto Barroso, sent to the First Panel the letter sent by the President of the Chamber, Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB), to communicate about the vote in the House. Behind the scenes, the assessment is that the ministers will reject the Chamber's resolution, maintaining only the suspension of a portion of the action against Ramagem that deals with crimes of damage to public property and deterioration of a listed heritage, committed after his diploma. The Court had already signaled to Congress, more than once, that this would be the limit for the suspension. In addition to the movement, already within the pivot action of the possible suspension, the parties Rede and PDT have asked the STF to declare the resolution adopted by the Chamber of Deputies on the 7th unconstitutional. The parties point out supposed offenses to the principles of the separation of powers, the due process of law, equality, and administrative morality. The PSOL is also expected to present an action to the STF on the same matter.

Deportes Iquique won the match against Atlético-MG by 3-2 in a thrilling comeback in the fourth round of the Copa Sul-Americana group stage. The match took place at the Tierra de Campeones stadium in Tarapacá, Chile. Ramos scored twice and Orellana once for Deportes Iquique, while Rubens and Bernard scored for Atlético-MG. With their first win, Deportes Iquique moved up to third place with four points, while Atlético-MG remained in the provisional lead of group H with five points. The Galo will lose the lead on Thursday, as any result from the other group match between Cienciano and Caracas will knock them off the top spot. The two teams will face each other again in the Copa Sul-Americana on Thursday: Atlético-MG will host Caracas at 21:30 (Brasília time), while Deportes Iquique will visit Cienciano at 23:00. The visitors took the lead, but despite being superior in the first half, they conceded an equalizer due to defensive mistakes. The team coached by Cuca had the best chances and possession, with 72% of the ball. Although they appeared more in the attacking third, the Brazilians struggled to score against Deportes Iquique. Deportes Iquique turned the game around, and Atlético-MG reduced the deficit, but ultimately could not avoid defeat away from home. Again with more possession, Atlético-MG dominated the second half. The Brazilian team suffered from a goal that involved a deflection and another due to a defensive error. Bernard scored the second goal for the visitors, but the team did not have a good finish in the last third of the field.

After a failed attempt by the Lula government to award the Celulose Highway to private initiative in 2024, the southern Mato Grosso section was auctioned off to the K&G Celulose Highway consortium, composed of K Infra Concessões and Galápagos Participações, at a B3 (São Paulo Stock Exchange) auction held on Thursday (8). In the bidding model, competitors offered discounts on toll fees, with the winner offering a 9% discount and a R$ 217.389.913.70 investment. The winning bidder beat out three other competitors. The Caminhos da Celulose consortium, led by XP, offered an 8% discount, while Rotas do Brasil, led by Kinea and Way, proposed a 5% discount. The BTG Pactual Infraestrutura III fund offered the lowest bid, at 4%. The auction did not go to the final bid stage, where bidders increase their offers until reaching the final value. The concession includes the highways: BR-262, BR-267, MS-040, MS-338, and MS-395. The sections connect Três Lagoas to the municipality of Nova Alvorada do Sul, passing through the state capital, Campo Grande. The route is important for the agricultural production of the state and for the transportation of the cellulose industry's production chain in eastern Mato Grosso do Sul - hence the name Celulose Highway. In total, the sections auctioned off on Thursday total 870.3 km in length, with estimated investments of R$ 6.91 billion in works (capex) and R$ 3.19 billion in operating costs (Opex). Among the planned interventions are highway duplications, the creation of service lanes, and the implementation of third lanes. In late 2024, the Lula government attempted to auction off the Celulose Highway, but the project did not receive any bids. The auction was scheduled for December 6. The concession project was structured by the government of Mato Grosso do Sul. According to Folha de S.Paulo's report, within the Ministry of Transportation, the assessment was that entrepreneurs were focused on other projects considered more attractive in the road concession portfolio, which would have ended up leaving Mato Grosso do Sul's offer in second place. To the report, the national secretary of road transportation, Viviane Esse, said it is normal for some projects not to receive bids and need adjustments given a large portfolio of assets to be concessioned. According to Aline Klein, infrastructure and concessions specialist at Vernalha Pereira law firm, the auction result confirms the success of the changes made to the bidding document. 'The profile of the bidders, with participation from various representatives of the financial market [managers], demonstrates the consolidation of interest from that segment in the highway market,' Klein said.

A 14-year-old student died on Thursday morning inside the Colégio Livre Aprender, in the University District, Uberaba (MG), after being attacked with a pair of scissors by a classmate. The victim, whose identity has not been disclosed, suffered a puncture wound from the scissors and did not resist. The information was confirmed by the city hall. A medical student provided first aid until the arrival of the Samu (Mobile Emergency Care Service). The rescue team attempted to resuscitate the victim, who was confirmed dead at the scene. The student fled after the crime, but was found in the late afternoon. He was arrested by the Military Police and will be taken to the Civil Police Station in the city to face charges under the Child and Adolescent Statute. The motive for the crime has not been disclosed by the police. The murder occurred at the school where the daughter of the bassist of the band Black Pantera, Chaene da Gama, studies. The father told the press that his daughter, Heloísa, witnessed the attack and is 'devastated'. The Uberaba City Hall published a statement lamenting the crime and declaring three days of official mourning. The mayor, Elisa Araújo, said that 'Uberaba is living a day of immense sadness' and reiterated the 'commitment to expanding emotional care, school coexistence, and a culture of peace'. The Colégio Livre Aprender stated that it will provide psychological assistance to the school community.

A 48-year-old woman was the victim of a hijacking in the western part of São Paulo on Tuesday evening. She was kidnapped in the Jardim Paulista neighborhood and was only released in Taboão da Serra, in the Greater São Paulo area. She was kidnapped by two armed criminals shortly after getting into her car, which was parked on Mexico Street, and they announced the robbery. According to the São Paulo State Public Security Secretariat, while they were with the victim, the criminals tried to make several bank transfers using her cell phone, but were unable to complete the transactions. The criminals then released the woman in Taboão da Serra and fled with the vehicle. In the same city, she went to the police and filed a report. The vehicle was later found and taken to the 37th Police District (Campo Limpo). The Civil Police, through the 78th Police District (Jardins), is investigating the case. The Public Security Secretariat stated that it monitors this type of crime and highlighted that the Civil Police has the Anti-Hijacking Division (DAS) of the Department of Strategic Police Operations (Dope), specialized in investigating and taking specific actions to combat this crime. No one has been arrested so far.

The largest climão was toasted at the inauguration of the Brazilian Woman's Reference Center in the Emas Retreat. On the occasion, Senator Leila Barros from Brasilia (PDT-DF) was prevented from speaking despite being one of the parliamentarians responsible for the R$ 900,000 amendment that funded the center's construction. The current allies of the occasion, the PT, sought to classify the incident as a political act of violence. 'It's unfortunate that this political violence was committed against an elected senator. At the inauguration of the Brazilian Woman's Reference Center, a policy launched by Dilma's government and funded by federal resources and parliamentary amendments like the one provided by her, the senator was prevented from speaking by the governing party under the pretext that she is opposed to Governor Ibaneis.' In reality, Leila was an outsider and intended to stir up trouble at the ceremony.

The CPI of Rio Melchior held its 4th ordinary meeting on Thursday (08) with a new composition. The commission approved 38 requests that will guide its actions from now on. The committee now has Iolando (MDB) as the rapporteur, replacing the missing Daniel Donizet (MDB), and Jaqueline Silva (MDB) as a substitute deputy for Hermeto (MDB). The president, Paula Belmonte (Cidadania), emphasized the intention to promote a "proactive and technical" CPI and stated that she will make every effort to deliver a solution to the pollution suffered by Melchior. Iolando, representing the government party, pointed out that the Buriti government is committed to contributing to the CPI's success. "As the leader of the MDB block, I can guarantee that, from the first moment, the DF government was solicited to contribute to improving the quality of Melchior River and the population of DF, as well as facilitating all possible explanations of what is happening in the river," he declared. Vice President Joaquim Roriz Neto (PL) stated that the CPI is extremely necessary. "We see the photos and reports and realize we cannot turn a blind eye to a situation so critical," he said. Morro da Cruz (PRD) also assured that he will work to contribute to the CPI's effectiveness. "I will give my contribution. The environment is a top priority," he emphasized. During the deliberation, the president and government-backed deputies disagreed on the approval of some requests on the agenda. Roriz Neto and the rapporteur proposed suspending the convocation of government agency representatives, Termonorte company representatives, and regional administrators. The district deputies argued that they intend to conduct technical visits to the site to better understand the situation of the river before proceeding with the convocations.

The request for information, Senator Damares Alves demands action and positioning from the ministry, which has among its attributions to defend the elderly and people with disabilities. The Brasilia-based senator has filed a request for information to demand from the Ministry of Human Rights, led by Macaé Evaristo, the ministry's stance and actions in defending the insured who have been harmed by frauds at the INSS. The national secretariats for the Rights of the Elderly and the Rights of People with Disabilities, which are directly affected by the unauthorized deductions, are part of the ministry. So far, however, no statement has been issued condemning the frauds.

The division among Brazilian left-wing groups is intensifying to the point where even the most radical PCO has parted ways, issuing a scathing critique not only of feminism but of left-wing ideology in general. According to the text, for the woman from the factory, farm, or periphery, the priorities are quite concrete: a decent salary, childcare, safe transportation, food on the table, and a roof over her head. However, bourgeois and petty-bourgeois feminism rarely addresses these urgent issues. While theorists and prominent figures discuss how many women hold leadership positions or how many CEOs there are in large companies, millions of Brazilian women continue to lack basic rights and access to quality public services. Simply placing some women in high-ranking government or corporate positions does not solve the daily struggles of the majority. There are many examples: we had a woman as President of Brazil and have had several female ministers; countries like the US have even had a female Vice President. But none of this, on its own, fills the plate of poor working women or guarantees their rights.

The Legislative Chamber opens its doors on this Friday (9) at 19h30 for a solemn session in honor of the Motorcycle Clubs, Motorcycle Groups, Car Clubs, and similar entities in the Federal District. The initiative is from Deputy Martins Machado (Republicans), who sponsors Bill No. 1611/2025, officially recognizing these entities as a Cultural and Social Movement in the DF. More than just a passion for two (or four) wheels, the groups have been standing out for their solidarity actions, such as food, blood, and support to vulnerable communities. The parliamentarian emphasizes that the proposal values those who turn motorcycling into an instrument of citizenship. The ceremony will take place at the CLDF auditorium, open to the public, with the presence of segment leaders.

The decisive phase for choosing the new regional president of the PT began on Thursday, 8th, with the formal launch of Guilherme Sigmaringa Seixas' candidacy, a member of a long-standing local PT family. Without having run for office before, Guilherme is the grandson of the local patron, lawyer Antonio Carlos Sigmaringa Seixas, and the son of former federal deputy Luiz Carlos Sigmaringa, who was likely the local PT member with the closest ties to then-President Lula. It was well-known in Brasilia that Sig had a hand in the appointment of several Supreme Court ministers. Sig passed away in 2018 without ever holding party leadership positions. Guilherme explained that his candidacy is not just about himself, but 'a call to unity, to the collective strength that built our party on the streets, in struggles, and in the hearts of the people.' He bets on contrasts. In favor of Guilherme is the factor of renewal: he has no public service record, so he doesn't face the same resistance as older PT figures in the local party who have accumulated grievances over time. Additionally, he doesn't identify with supposedly renewal-oriented currents that, in reality, only create new resistances. For example, a young candidate, full of freshness, but who bases her campaign on defending prisoners and delinquents. The chances of getting support from the PT masses in today's times are rigorously zero. Today, minority flags like gender equality and others are strictly out of fashion in the PT.

The government of US President Donald Trump will likely impose tariffs of over 10% on trading partners with which the United States has a commercial deficit, warned US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Thursday (8). After returning to the White House in January, Trump established a wave of new tariffs on imported products to the United States. However, he partially backed off, except for China, on the higher rates to give room for negotiations, but maintained a minimum of 10% applicable to most products entering his territory. The 10% is 'for all those who have a balanced trade with us', like the United Kingdom, said Lutnick to CNBC. The Secretary added that tariffs will 'likely be higher' for those who export more to the United States than they import, such as the European Union (EU).

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, requested an unconditional ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine on Thursday (8), and warned that he will establish sanctions if the truce is not respected. 'The talks with Russia and Ukraine continue. The United States is asking, ideally, for an unconditional ceasefire of 30 days', Trump said on his Truth Social network, shortly after speaking with Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensky. If the truce is violated - he added - the 'United States and its partners will impose more sanctions'. Trump said that 'both countries will be held responsible for respecting the sanctity of these direct negotiations' to deter the conflict that began when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. The American president wants any ceasefire to result in a 'lasting peace'. 'Everything can be done very quickly and I will be available in a flash if my services are needed', he added. Trump initiated talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in February, in an attempt to end the war that he had promised to end within 24 hours after taking office for his second term. But the Republican has shown growing impatience, first with Zelensky and more recently with Putin, as fighting continues. In recent weeks, Trump and other high-ranking US officials have intensified warnings that Washington is ready to abandon its role as mediator if there is no progress soon. On social media, Zelensky said he told Trump that Ukraine is ready to talk to Russia about the war 'in any format', but insisted that a total ceasefire should come first.

The New York Stock Exchange closed higher on Thursday, driven by the announcement of a commercial agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom, which generated hopes for a broader relaxation of the commercial offensive launched by President Donald Trump with new tariffs. The main Wall Street index, the Dow Jones Industrial, rose 0.62%, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq climbed 1.07% and the broad-based S&P 500, 0.58%. "A commercial agreement, even if it's a principle of agreement, is what the markets were waiting for," said Chris Zaccarelli, an analyst at Northlight Asset Management. Trump announced today a first truce in his global commercial offensive with a "historic" commitment to London, although the details of the text indicate a rather limited scope. This pact, negotiated over several weeks, will allow the United Kingdom to open up to American products valued at "several billion dollars," according to the Republican magnate. "The United Kingdom may be the first of many dominoes to fall, the first of many commercial agreements that can be reached," declared AFP's Sam Stovall, a CFRA expert. "If the government can achieve more agreements in the process, it will contribute significantly to calming a stock market that has been shaken this year," added Zaccarelli. Trump assured that both China and the European Union (EU) want to reach agreements with him. In the US bond market, the yield on 10-year notes rose significantly, to 4.39%, from 4.27% at the close of Wednesday. As for indicators, weekly jobless claims fell from the previous period and were below analysts' expectations.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas asked the new Pope Leo XIV on Thursday (8) to continue the 'peace efforts' of his predecessor, Pope Francis, according to an official statement. Abbas sent 'his best wishes to Pope Leo XIV in the continuity of his noble mission and the preservation of the legacy of the late Pope Francis and his peace efforts', the Palestinian presidency informed. The Palestinian leader also highlighted 'the importance of the moral, religious, and political role of the Holy See in defending just causes, including the Palestinian people and their right to freedom and independence'.

Pope Francis 'fell in love with Peru' when he was a missionary and prelate in the country, said Edison Farfan, bishop of Chiclayo, a Peruvian city mentioned in the new pope's first speech. American Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost joined the Augustinians in Peru in 1985 and obtained Peruvian nationality in 2015. 'He loved goat meat, rice with duck and ceviche, which were his favorite dishes,' Farfan said in a press conference, recalling Prevost's close contact with the poor. The bishop mentioned Prevost's passage through Chulucanas, where he was a missionary after completing his studies in the United States. He then traveled to Trujillo, where he 'set up' an Augustinian formation school, and arrived in the coastal city. 'He is our brother, a brother who passed through these lands. He gave his whole life to the mission in Peru, is sensitive to the theme of poverty,' Farfan added. Prevost is considered a moderate religious figure, a quality crucial for his election at a time when the Church is divided. Farfan described him as a spiritual guide of the 'peripheries', close to 'the people' and 'always attentive to the value of popular religiosity'. Pope Leo XIV is considered close to Francis, who led the Catholic Church for 12 years with a reformist pontificate focused on the poor and immigrants, amidst criticism from more conservative sectors. The new pope is known as 'the least American of the Americans', due to his moderation in his words and his proximity to Latin America. He will face challenges such as child abuse in the Church, global conflicts, the rise of populist governments, and the climate crisis.

May peace be with all of you! Dear brothers and sisters, this is the first greeting of the Risen Christ, the Good Shepherd who gave his life for God's flock. I would like to wish that this greeting of peace enters your hearts, reaches your families, all people, wherever they may be, all nations, the entire world. May peace be with you! This is the peace of the Risen Christ, a disarming and humbling peace, persevering and coming from God, who loves us all unconditionally. We still keep in our ears that weak but always courageous voice of Pope Francis, who blessed Rome! The Pope who blessed Rome gave his blessing to the world, to the entire world, on that Easter morning. Allow me to continue with the same blessing: God loves you, God loves all of you, and evil will not prevail! We are all in God's hands. Therefore, without fear, united with God and among ourselves, let us move forward. We are disciples of Christ. Christ precedes us. The world needs his light. Humanity needs him as a bridge to be reached by God and his love. Help us also, and then one another, to build bridges, with dialogue, with encounter, uniting us all to be one people, always in peace. Thank you, Pope Francis! I would also like to thank all my brother cardinals who chose me to be the Successor of Peter and walk with you, as a united Church, always seeking peace, justice, always working as faithful men and women to Jesus Christ, without fear, to proclaim the Gospel, to be missionaries. I am the son of Saint Augustine, an Augustinian, who said: 'With you, I am a Christian, and for you, a bishop.' In this sense, we can all walk together towards that homeland that God has prepared for us. To the Church of Rome, a special greeting! We must seek together how to be a missionary Church, a Church that builds bridges, dialogues, always open to receive like this square with open arms. To all, to all those who need our charity, our presence, dialogue, and love. And if you permit me, a word, a greeting to all those, and particularly to my beloved Diocese of Chiclayo, in Peru, where a faithful people followed their bishop, shared their faith, and gave much, much to continue being the faithful Church of Jesus Christ. To all of you, brothers and sisters of Rome, Italy, the world, we want to be a synodal Church, a Church that walks, a Church that always seeks peace, always seeks charity, always seeks to be close, especially to those who suffer. Today is the day of the Supplication to Our Lady of Pompeii. Our Mother Mary always wants to walk with us, be close, help us with her intercession and love. Therefore, I would like to pray with you. Let us pray together for this new mission, for the entire Church, for world peace, and ask this special grace from Mary, our Mother. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us, sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
