PGR calls for Bolsonaro to be investigated
The Attorney General's Office (PGR) asked the Federal Supreme Court (STF) that the former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) be included in the investigation that finds that they were the “intellectual authors” of the extremist acts on January 8, which vandalized and destroyed the headquarters of the Three Powers, in Brasília. Around 80 members of the Federal Public Ministry made the request to Augusto Aras, who had been criticized for his actions in the PGR when it came to Jair Bolsonaro. (FSP)
The past of the Bolsonarista
Maria de Fátima Mendonça Jacinto Souza, who earned the nickname “Fátima de Tubarão” after participating in the coup acts and boasting of “dirtying” the premises of the STF last Sunday (8), has a case running in court: she was convicted in 2014 of drug trafficking.

New economic measures
The set of measures announced by the economic team on Thursday (12) to reduce the deficit in public accounts by R$ 242,7 billion was considered timid by market agents, managers and economists. (UOL)
There are two main reasons for this:
- Not even Minister Fernando Haddad himself believes in the projection in the plan presented that the measures will transform the deficit foreseen in the Budget Law of R$ 231,55 billion into a surplus of R$ 11,13 billion.
- The market expects measures to control and cut expenses, and the announcement was focused on reviewing expenses and measures that should increase revenue, such as fuel tax increases. As a result, the market understood the announcement as a letter of intent and, in fact, just a tax increase.
Ibaneis in the PF
