Breno Altman: Barroso's statement is an admission that the Supreme Court failed to act by endorsing the coup.

247 - Journalist Breno Altman pointed out the most serious aspect of Supreme Court Justice Luís Roberto Barroso's statement that former President Dilma Rousseff was not overthrown by the so-called... "fiscal maneuvers", the prevarication of the supreme court. “The central issue of Minister Barroso’s statement, when he said that Dilma Rousseff’s impeachment was due to “lack of political support”, is not in the statement itself, but in the confession of prevarication by the STF in the face of non-compliance with the law, endorsing a coup d’état”, Altman wrote on Twitter this Tuesday (4).

The excerpt from Barroso's article that caused a furor in the political and media scene was this one, published in the Cebri (Brazilian Center for International Relations) magazine, to be released on the 10th: "The formal justification was the so-called fiscal maneuvers - violation of budgetary rules - although the real reason was the loss of political support."

This is precisely why the country's political and social leaders committed to democracy protested and denounced it: "it's a coup".

What Minister Barroso has done now is confirm that the removal of Dilma Rousseff was indeed a coup d'état.

The journalist, Ricardo Kotscho[The journalist] accurately summarized the magnitude of the Supreme Court Justice's confession: “If we lived in a parliamentary system, where the loss of political support leads to the fall of the cabinet, perfect. Except here we are still in a presidential system, and the loss of political support is not foreseen in the Constitution to justify an impeachment.” Another journalist, Monica BergamoThe columnist, who brought to light the text of the Supreme Court Justice, also recalled that Barroso had already expressed this reasoning in July 2021, during a symposium in which he stated: "I believe there should be no reasonable doubt that she [Dilma] was not removed for crimes of responsibility or corruption, but rather, she was removed due to a loss of political support. Because removing her for corruption after what followed would be an irony of history."

After the coup d'état against former president Dilma Rousseff, Brazil regressed in all economic and social indicators, workers lost rights, the income from the pre-salt was transferred from society to private (mostly international) shareholders of Petrobras, and Brazil became a pariah country on the international scene, because few leaders wanted to get close to a usurper, like Michel Temer, or a crude figure like Jair Bolsonaro.
