Website with Bolsonaro's surname is recreated and criticizes the president

The website that bears the surname of President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) no longer displays content supporting the politician and now brings together criticism and satire. The new version presents Bolsonaro as a "threat to Brazil" and defines itself as "a digital art gallery and journalistic collection" with information from the head of the Executive and his family.

Until April 2021, the website “www.bolsonaro.com.br” published information about the administration of the current president and his family. Since last Monday (29), however, the same address displays a series of texts, reports and images that criticize the president's actions in relation to topics such as the pandemic, alleged cases of corruption and the spread of fake news.

The website's domain, which is the address used to access it and create content, was not renewed by the president's clan and, therefore, fell into unfriendly hands.
