The Attorney General’s Office (PGR) defended the extinction of the sentence and precautionary measures applied by the Federal Supreme Court (STF) against federal deputy Daniel Silveira (PTB-RJ). He was sentenced to eight years and nine months in prison for attacks and threats to the STF and its ministers.
In the statement sent to the Court, the Deputy Attorney General of the Republic, Lindôra Araújo, argued that the pardon of President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) given to Silveira, who overturned the conviction, is constitutional and must be fulfilled. Likewise, the precautionary measures enacted prior to the presidential decree must also be reviewed.
“The presidential decree is existing, valid and effective, and the enjoyment of the benefits of the grace granted is pending the due judicial decision that declares the sentence extinct”, wrote Araújo. The deputy attorney general also stated that the four actions that question the presidential pardon in the STF have not yet been judged, which reinforces the maintenance of the effects of Bolsonaro’s decree.
Minister Alexandre de Moraes, rapporteur of the case in the STF, should revoke the sentence and precautionary measures only after the action has gone through all the judicial stages, that is, after the final decision.
Bolsonaro studies pardon for Allan dos Santos
In the tune of pardons, President Bolsonaro said this Monday (15) that he will propose to his team the possibility of granting a presidential pardon also to Allan dos Santos, owner of the website Terça Livre.
In October 2021, Alexandre de Moraes ordered the Bolsonaro’s preventive detention at the request of the Federal Police (PF), within the scope of the investigation that investigates the participation of Allan dos Santos in the creation of a criminal organization for the propagation of false information. Today, the bolsonarista is on the run in the United States, where he moved in July 2021, when he became the target of searches and seizures by the PF.

Bolsonaro told journalists that he would “send to study” the possibility. “And you can see, my grace is foreseen. When back there they pardoned a bunch of people for corruption, nobody said anything,” he said.
“In the case of Daniel, I already told you, I didn’t want, as the Supreme Court, to receive those criticisms he made. Now, the penalty for that is not prison, much less 9 years in jail, starting in a closed regime, canceling the mandate, ineligibility, fine, for God’s sake.”
PGR should position itself on Bolsonaro’s motorcycle rider in the US
STF Minister Cármen Lúcia determined that the PGR should take a position on the participation of Jair Bolsonaro and the Minister of Justice and Public Security, Anderson Torres, on a motorcycle, in Orlando, Florida, in the United States, last week.

The determination of Cármen Lúcia took place within the scope of a crime news filed with the STF by federal deputy Alencar Santana (PT-SP). The parliamentarian stated, on the PT website in the Chamber, that an alleged meeting between Bolsonaro and Allan dos Santos represents “omission” and violates the constitutional principles of legality, impersonality and morality.
“Political agents cannot be silent with fugitives from Brazilian justice in defense of the federal government’s ideological propaganda, much less as a place to exchange favors and favors for allies of the President of the Republic”, said Alencar Santana.
Bolsonaro said, however, that he did not meet with Allan dos Santos.
Lira removes Bolsonaro’s allied deputy
The president of the Chamber, Arthur Lira (PP-AL), determined the removal of federal deputy Valdevan Noventa (PL-SE), after the Second Panel of the STF decided to maintain the cancellation of the Bolsonaro’s mandate. Thus, Márcio Macêdo (PT-SE) resumes the deputy’s chair.

In total, around 80 donations in amounts of R$ 1,050 were made at the same bank branch, raising suspicions of fraud for the Electoral Public Ministry, responsible for filing the action.

“TSE will not tolerate personal or digital militias”, says Moraes
STF Minister Alexandre de Moraes attacked fake news in his speech after being elected to the presidency of the TSE, this Tuesday (14). “The Electoral Justice will not tolerate that personal or digital militias disrespect the sovereign will of the people and attack democracy in Brazil,” said Moraes, who will head the Court during the 2022 elections.
The change of command in the court is a formal event, but in this case the election comes amid escalating tensions between the judiciary and President Bolsonaro.
