247 - Jair Bolsonaro was particularly irritated by the photo that Hamilton Mourão took with Fernando Henrique Cardoso. This information comes from journalist Guilherme Amado, in his... column in Época magazine.

The registration for both of them took place on April 7th, when they both attended the Brazil Conference at Harvard University.

Bolsonaro even confronted Mourão about this during their conversation, in an attempt to reach an understanding. Mourão tried to explain that the fact that he took a picture with FH (Fernando Henrique Cardoso) doesn't mean that he, Mourão, doesn't support Bolsonaro.

Moreover, Mourão has been hammering home, in repeated conversations with Bolsonaro and with radicalized people around him, that he is always defending the president.

In his conversation with Bolsonaro, Mourão even emphasized this. He suggested to the president that he watch everything he said in his lecture at the Wilson Center, the Washington-based think tank that invited Mourão to speak two weeks ago.

It was the invitation from the Wilson Center, whose text was written by the Wilson Center, that Carlos Bolsonaro used to attack Mourão.
