The TSE minister welcomed the request made by the Brazilian Federation of Hope (PT, PCdoB and PV), which states that the video – recorded at an MTST (Homeless Workers Movement) event in 2017 – was manipulated “in order to convey the idea that candidate Lula had said that the supporters and affiliates present at the event were bums, criminals and drug dealerss".
