[amor-barato]

Brasil, 10/06/2025: hoje, assistindo o depoimento do fascista ex-presidente ao STF, vi um velho assustado, indeciso, rendido, derrotado etc não tive como não me lembrar dessa foto icônica, Dilma Vana Rousseff, cabeça erguida, segura, valente, enfrentando com coragem seus algozes da ditadura. Dignidade e coragem, para raros, para poucos.

Watching a few of clips of the Brazilian Ethics Committee to write a scene of Krennic in the Witness Stand. I guess poor Mon for having to listen to him twist everything she says. I know, I know... we all love Krennic, but he is insufferable.

And I know the worst things ever happen at these committees. Like, we have the infamous "stay a little bit more, darling, we're gonna have cake" and our former President Dilma Rouseff having to watch Bolsonaro (when he was just a useless congressman) pay homage to her torturer.

And I although I know I can expect the worst from our congressmen, I'm still appalled how some of them can defend their peers even when they should not get any defense. Like, in this case, a congressman has assaulted his wife, and they're saying he did this because he felt threatened by her, like... be for fucking real.

That said, I don't think I'll be able to update tomorrow. Maybe this week or only next Monday. Sorry xD

And if anyone has any tips to write convicing scenes like this, I'd love to hear them.

Barack Obama Administration Spied Brazilian Government

Between 2011 and 2015, the US National Security Agency (NSA) under the Obama administration spied on Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, her staff, and Petrobras, sparking significant diplomatic crises.

Revelations by Edward Snowden in 2013 and WikiLeaks in 2015 showed that top government communications, including personal phones and the presidential jet, were targeted.

Later investigations by WikiLeaks confirmed that the monitoring was persistent and went far beyond what was initially reported in 2013.

'Bank of BRICS doesn't impose conditions on member countries,' says Rousseff about loans to Rio Grande do Sul

Former Brazilian president and head of the NDB signed a letter of commitment to allocate US$ 1,075 billion

Vice President Geraldo Alckmin and the president of the New Development Bank (NDB, also known as Bank of BRICS), Dilma Rousseff, signed a letter of commitment on Tuesday (4) to allocate a total of US$ 1,075 billion, planned for this year in Brazil, to the state of Rio Grande do Sul, devastated by floods.

The announcement was made by Dilma on May 14. Alckmin is in Beijing, China, leading a delegation made up of six other Brazilian ministers (in addition to being vice president, Alckmin is also Minister of Development, Industry, Trade and Services) to take part in Cosban, the Sino-Brazilian High-Level Concertation and Cooperation Commission.

In a press conference with Alckmin at the Brazilian Embassy in Beijing, Dilma was asked about how free the state of Rio Grande do Sul is to allocate resources. The NDB president said that flexibility to allocate resources in case of disasters is essential.

''I went through three disasters [as president]. You're going to face risks in Rio Grande do Sul: there's the problem of removing waste, and cleaning up. You only start rebuilding after that. You have the problem of rebuilding streets, roads… 150 roads and bridges have been affected,” said Rousseff.
