O É da Coisa de 06/04/2026, com Reinaldo Azevedo: Bate-boca reaça; Dirceu e STF; Tabata e Israel

·1 hr 25 min·6 clips

Two days before Sergio Moro was dismissed, Jair Bolsonaro said on camera: 'I'm going to screw everyone in the Federal Police because they won't let me protect my family.'

1. O É Da Coisa, a nightly political commentary program on Band News FM hosted by Reinaldo Azevedo with co-hosts Wally Benny and Arthur Covri, covers Brazilian political stories from the April 6, 2026 edition. 2. Reinaldo Azevedo is the central analytical voice; Wally Benny and Arthur Covri participate in readings and banter. 3. The episode's recurring theme is the gap between what political actors say and the documented factual record — applied to Eduardo Bolsonaro, José Dirceu, and the STF reform debate. 4. Deputy Lindbergh Farias filed a new preventive detention request against Eduardo Bolsonaro with Minister Alexandre de Moraes, triggered by Eduardo's announcement of a new campaign in the United States seeking Magnitsky Act sanctions against Brazilian judicial authorities including TSE ministers. 5. Reinaldo characterizes the request as legally supportable because Eduardo's continued public statements about what he will say at his April 14 interrogation constitute ongoing judicial coercion in an active proceeding. 6. Eduardo Bolsonaro praised the Federal Police's investigations of the Master and NSS cases while attacking director André Rodrigues as serving the Lula government — a claim Reinaldo systematically rebuts. 7. Reinaldo's primary rebuttal is Bolsonaro's own April 22, 2020 recorded video, in which Bolsonaro explicitly stated he would change Federal Police leadership because he couldn't get them to protect 'his family and friends' — made two days before Sergio Moro resigned and accused Bolsonaro of political interference. 8. Reinaldo adds that Alexandre de Moraes blocked Ramagem's PF appointment on April 29, 2020 on grounds of 'deviation of purpose' based precisely on that video as evidence of planned political instrumentalization. 9. A July 29, 2021 live stream with then-Justice Minister Anderson Torres, in which Bolsonaro revealed classified Federal Police inquiry content about a TSE hacking attempt to falsely argue ballot box vulnerability, is cited as a second documented case of Bolsonaro directly politicizing PF investigations. 10. Eduardo Bolsonaro shared a video by Bolsonarist blogger Kim Paim attacking deputy Nicolas Ferreira for sharing a post from the extreme-right page Espaço Liberdade, which Eduardo said publicly would cost Flávio Bolsonaro votes in the first round. 11. Eduardo's text to Nicolas accused him of 'training his algorithm to give visibility to those who wish the death of my father,' which Reinaldo characterizes as a qualitatively different form of accusation reflecting a Leninist democratic centralism model of party loyalty. 12. Reinaldo identifies the extreme-right ecosystem dispute: Espaço Liberdade is controlled by Kelvin Rodrigues and Samantha Poser, connected to Silvio Grimaldo who claims to carry the intellectual heritage of Olavo de Carvalho, which Eduardo despises. 13. Flávio Bolsonaro posted a video appealing to Colossians 3:13 — 'forgive each other as the Lord forgave you' — calling on Eduardo and Nicolas to focus on the shared enemy rather than internal fighting. 14. Reinaldo delivers a critique of Flávio's biblical citation, arguing that Paul's Epistle to the Colossians addresses a divided church in Phrygia with a universal message of forgiveness that explicitly has no 'our side' versus enemies, making Flávio's in-group application theologically wrong. 15. Michelle Bolsonaro, without explicitly entering the Eduardo-Nicolas dispute, shared a Nicolas Ferreira video about The Passion of the Christ — which Reinaldo interprets as Michelle signaling her alignment against Eduardo in the family's internal politics. 16. José Dirceu, in an interview with Mônica Bergamo in Folha, argued the 2026 election should debate structural Brazilian problems — Petrobras, public security, education, science and technology, tax structure — rather than making corruption a platform again. 17. Reinaldo endorses Dirceu's argument as 'absolutely correct and non-partisan,' tracing the history of anti-corruption campaigns used to justify authoritarian interventions: Carlos Lacerda's 'Mar de Lama' in 1954, the 1964 coup's AI-5 (which cited 'true democracy'), 2013 protests, and Lava Jato. 18. Dirceu argued for STF self-reform given polling showing 70% of Brazilians want changes to the court, and Reinaldo endorses the concept while warning that parliamentary reform attempts are mostly cover for running over the court's independence. 19. Reinaldo uses the Fritz Lang film Metropolis as an extended metaphor: screenwriter Thea von Harbou's reactionary critique of capitalism was later co-opted by Goebbels, distinguishing between 'healing criticisms' (Lang's direction) and 'criticisms that intend to make everything worse' — applied to STF reformers who want to destroy rather than improve. 20. Listeners who follow Brazilian political journalism and enjoy intellectually dense commentary drawing on biblical text, film history, and legal analysis will find this episode representative of Reinaldo Azevedo's distinctive style.
