Joesley's testimony against Temer is falling apart.

In the US, plea bargaining is sustainable because prosecutors there have no autonomy.

They earn low salaries (compared to the national average), have no job security, and can be dismissed at any time by whoever appointed them, namely the president of the republic.

Other prosecutors are elected by the population and can also be denounced and removed from office by voters.

In this context, the control over "rewarded" confessions, which are kept in absolute secrecy, does not allow them to become instruments of political blackmail as they have in Brazil.

Brazil needs to choose: either end plea bargaining or end the autonomy of the Public Prosecutor's Office.

A public prosecutor's office with the power to extract plea bargains at any cost, with the help of the judiciary, and even with the power (as they did with Odebrecht executives) to establish agreements without judicial mediation, is completely incompatible with democracy.

Many of the Lava Jato investigation's testimonies turned out to be completely false, and were extensively used by the operation and the mainstream media to poison the political atmosphere and prepare the country for a coup.

This is the case with Delcídio do Amaral's testimony.

The testimony of João Santana and Mônica Moura was also explicitly coordinated with the Lava Jato prosecutors. The money abroad, the marketing strategists initially said, was for overseas campaigns. After several weeks of terror and torture, they "changed their story" to reinforce the prosecutors' narrative and generate sensationalist headlines, also on the eve of the impeachment vote in the Chamber of Deputies: they began saying it was money for the PT's campaign.

And now, Joesley Batista's testimonies are starting to crumble.

Worse, they are starting to sink along with the Supreme Court itself!
