A meeting between PL boss Valdemar da Costa Neto and President Jair Bolsonaro’s marketers just over a month ago left the crowd feeling scorched earth. A national quantitative study and a qualitative study conducted in Brazil showed that Jair Bolsonaro does not reverse the performance of various institutions and will not be re-elected. Doses of optimism and scenarios invented by the Bolsonarists were superimposed on the technical exposition. Fact: With so many platitudes and haphazard, catchy (and dubious) phrases to a captive audience, Bolsonaro lost the votes of women, youth, homosexuals, Indians and, mainly (this is the electoral weight considered the largest), Brazilians. who have lost family members during the Covid-19 pandemic. For Bolsonaro, however, the press is always to blame for bad news.

President Bolsonaro’s staff convinced him to scrap the gambling legalization bill and push it back to 2023. Elections are coming up and he doesn’t want to alienate Christians, especially evangelicals, a strong core of his electorate. The President believes that reversing the decision in the weeks before the election is a big expense, given the vote in the Senate in the second semester.

Data from the Council of Commerce and the Prefecture of Abadiania (GO) for Coluna shows how much the municipality knows about the activities of the medium João de Deus, who was arrested in 2019 and is still responding to lawsuits alleging abuse of women. At least 62 hotels (that’s right) have closed since then, affecting 2,000 jobs. The guests were mostly Brazilians, and the few who remained survived the visits of the curious and foreigners who still believe in the energy of good at Casa Dom Ignacio.

Bilingualism on the rise

The Brazilian Association for Bilingual Education (Abebi) found that between 2014 and 2019, the number of bilingual schools in Brazil grew by 10%. In São Paulo alone, which has 71 bilingual institutions and eight international ones, the number of students has grown by 64%, jumping from 2,800 to 4,600 in the last five years. Brasilia is one of the capitals where this sector has grown the most.

Prayer and Law

Former Minister of Women and Human Rights, an evangelist to walk with a Bible in her hand, Damares Alves, who tells the wind she can be Bolsonaro’s deputy, is praying for an electoral law. Visiting the temples of various neo-Pentecostal churches in the DF requires preliminary candidates for deputies. Today he will preach in the square of Guar’s satellite.

man of faith

In strange times for a preaching group, see the cases of pastors arrested on suspicion of corruption in the MOC, the owners of neo-Pentecostal temples have indeed been fortunate. A penthouse in Copacabana, Oscar Niemeyer’s legacy left to his family, was sold for 5 million reais to a pastor from Rio de Janeiro. The man does have faith: he has not even visited the property.
