      Lindbergh: If impeachment happens early, there will be war.

      Senator Lindbergh Farias (PT) warned this Tuesday (2) that, if the Senate brings forward the start of the final trial of the impeachment process of elected President Dilma Rousseff from August 29 to three days earlier, the PT caucus and allies will request that the 40 defense witnesses be heard in plenary; "If it changes from the 29th to the 26th, we will request that the 40 defense witnesses be heard in the Senate plenary. If Temer wants war, wants to run over the Senate, we are prepared. We will not accept proposals to bring it forward, to vote on Saturday and Sunday. Our proposal is that it stays on the 29th," he warned; earlier, Renan Calheiros said he would work for the advancement.
