247 - A video published by the office of congresswoman Benedita da Silva (PT-RJ) on social media this weekend criticizes the vote-buying scheme promoted by Michel Temer in the Chamber of Deputies to avoid two accusations against him and remain in the presidency.

The video's text lists three reasons to answer the question posed by the British newspaper The Guardian: if Temer has only 3% popular approval, why is he still in office?

According to material produced by Benedita's team, "the market doesn't care about corruption," "Temer has enough budget to bribe Congress," and "the anti-corruption protests were basically against Dilma and not against corruption."
