A Federal police monitors the presence of a businessman and former right hand Donald Trump, Jason Miller, in Brazil. The businessman was in Brasilia over the weekend as a speaker at Conservative Political Action Conference (Cpac).

The entrepreneur is the founder Gettrcreated to bring back former President Donald Trump, who was banned from mainstream platforms, on social media. Receivingtr has 2 million subscribers, 13.5% of which are in Brazil.

In addition to the conference, Miller visited Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro, the organizer of the event, as well as former Chancellor Ernesto Araujo and former special adviser to the President, Felipe Martins.

Investigative authorities suspect that the “software” of the invasion of the Capitol in Washington on January 6 will be applied in Brazil.

It is no coincidence that this conference coincided with the September 7 demonstration.

An FBI report released last week showed that only 40 of the 670 arrested for the Capitol invasion were formally charged with conspiracy, as some degree of pre-planning involvement was proven.

In Brazil, perpetrators of social media threats have been punished. Another search and seizure operation was launched today, appointed by the Minister of the Supreme Court, Alexandre de Moraes, against the alleged organizers of the attacks on the Supreme Court during the Sete de Setembro demonstration. One of the targets is Professor Marcio Giovani Nike from the municipality of Otasilio Costa in Santa Catarina, who was arrested in pre-trial detention.

In a “live broadcast” on social networks, Marcio said that “a big businessman is offering federal money that will fly out of the head of Alexander de Moraes, dead or alive.” He also said that there is a group in charge of hunting “ministers”. [do STF] wherever they are.

The arrest, like the arrest of blogger Wellington Macedo last week, who also filmed videos calling for an invasion of the Supreme Court and threatening the Moraes family, was requested by a federal attorney and sanctioned by the minister.

The arrest of these agitators does not pacify the predictions about tomorrow’s demonstrations, or rather about the actions of the military police. In fact, it is the undeclared activities on social media that generate more public safety concerns.

General Carlos Alberto dos Santos Cruz, former minister of the government secretariat and former secretary of public security for the ministry of justice, says he is not afraid of the prime ministers’ actions and the control of the troops by the general commanders. According to Santos Cruz, the police are afraid of losing positions in the corporation, whose competitors are very controversial.

The former Minister of Justice, who chose not to be named, prefers to be skeptical about statements by governors, public security secretaries, commanders, as well as prosecutors and judges that preventive measures have been taken to monitor and punish prime ministers engaged in demonstrations or not to punish hooligans.

His distrust is motivated by a nascent history of punishment by the prime minister for demonstrations of a political nature. Santos Cruz says the prime minister’s internal affairs agencies remove at least 100 military police officers a year for misconduct. However, the former minister says the cases are ongoing and not related to political demonstrations such as riots and strikes.
