"The 'scorched earth' scenario has changed"

Another strike involving federal teachers is dragging on across the country. Lambs with Temer and Bolsonaro. Lions with Dilma and Lula.

The term "perfect storm" is used when everything seems to conspire to result in a tragedy.

It's incredible how the president of a public company like Embrapa can celebrate investment cuts as a model of good management.

It would be great if we had a little bit of pixie dust and could teleport ourselves to another reality.

Either that, or the Cuca will get you.

"The Brazilian Public Administration has failed. The public servants who embarked on the path of the coup, the same ones who swore to obey the Constitution and respect these basic principles, should never have gone down this criminal path."

Bolsonaro and his troupe of satyrs will be defeated for the good of the Brazilian people, who can no longer tolerate so many epic fantasies.

Few claims in the current political debate sound more implausible than the cynical provocation that the left helped elect Bolsonaro.

Today's news reports indicate that Vale ON shares have fallen by almost 20% on the B3 stock exchange. This is a number that interests Vale's owners. The despair of its shareholders stems from the suspension of dividend payments and the drop in share prices. The human losses are merely statistical.

In the past, they investigated a single dog to get to Dilma. Now, they're failing to investigate an entire pack for fear of hurting Bolsonaro and others involved in the 2016 coup.
