Anticipating Temer's downfall, MBL is already planning a return to protests.

Groups that supported the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff, such as the MBL (Free Brazil Movement), have been quite quiet in recent months, even in the face of escalating corruption allegations against Michel Temer and his allies; now, with the prospect of even greater intensification of the Lava Jato scandals when the Judiciary returns from recess, these same organizations are already planning to abandon the Planalto Palace and return to protests.

247 - Groups that supported the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff, such as the MBL (Free Brazil Movement), have been quite quiet in recent months, even in the face of escalating corruption allegations against Michel Temer and his allies. Now, with the prospect of even greater intensification of the Lava Jato scandals when the Judiciary returns from recess, these same organizations are already planning to abandon the Planalto Palace and return to protests.

As information These are from the "Painel" column of Folha de S.Paulo. 

Check the note:

"Meanwhile, the groups that actively campaigned for the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff are skeptical about the PMDB politician's ability to survive. They foresee significant damage from Lava Jato when the Judiciary resumes its activities in February."

Organizations like the MBL (Free Brazil Movement) are expected to increase street protests if the accusations further damage the leadership of the Presidential Palace.
