Authorities present at the meeting confirmed to the column that Bolsonaro spoke about changing the leadership of the Federal Police, as the former minister had denounced. The meeting was the scene of several problems.
According to those present, Bolsonaro was in a "terrible mood," complained to ministers, and threatened to fire anyone, including the then Minister of Justice, Sergio Moro.
