247 - After generating immense repercussions and seeing her name trending on Twitter Brazil with the hashtag #cadeiaparajúlia (Jail for Júlia), Bolsonaro-supporting congresswoman Júlia Zanatta (PL-SC) used her social media to say that there is nothing wrong with wearing a shirt insinuating the assassination of President Lula, as shown in the image below:

On social media, in response to a barrage of criticism, she claims to be a victim of persecution and blames the "far left" for the act. 

"Even with threats, I will continue to defend our values. The PT dictatorship is like that; anyone who disagrees with them is threatened with expulsion," said the extremist.
