COMMENT
January 24, 2018 will be a decisive day for the institutions of the Federative Republic of Brazil. The judgment of a former president will place, especially for the Federal Justice, the principle with which he always mentions so as not to question his independence: the principle of impartiality.
No one is no one is above the law. All have to be judged without distinction, either by economic condition or by the public office they held. The whole of Brazil will be waiting for it to be a totally impartial trial, without privileges. For the Workers’ Party (PT), it could be its extinction of the Brazilian political scene.

COMENTÁRIO
O dia 24 de janeiro de 2018 será um dia decisivo para as instituições da República Federativa do Brasil. O julgamento de um ex-presidente colocará , sobretudo para a Justiça Federal, o princípio com o qual sempre menciona para não colocar em dúvida sua independência: o princípio da imparcialidade.
Ninguém é diferente perante a lei. Todos têm que ser julgados sem diferenciação, seja pela condição econômica ou pelo cargo público que ocupou. O Brasil todo estará esperando que seja um julgamento totalmente imparcial, sem privilégios. Para o PT, poderá ser sua extinção do cenário político brasileiro.

Lula’s Trial - Mobilizations and Threats
The harassment intimidations against judges who will prosecute Lula's appeal and the creation of a confrontational climate in front of the Porto Alegre Forum show that Worker’s Party (PT) only wants to comply with the law when the decision suits him
The Brasilian Worker’s Party (PT) created a climate of intimidation in a desperate attempt to disqualify a likely unfavorable decision against former President Lula at the Federal Regional Court of the 4th Region (TRF-4) in Porto Alegre. Thus, what was to be a legal dispute, became the stage for political battle, in an atmosphere of terror and fear - which even involved threats to the families of the magistrates. Fearful for the safety of their families, the three judges of the 8th class of the Federal Regional Court, João Pedro Gebran Neto, Leandro Paulsen and Victor Laus, even took away wives and children from Porto Alegre. A person from Mato Grosso do Sul sent a letter to the court promising to invade the Forum on the 24th. The acts of violence were investigated by the Attorney General's Office and the Federal Supreme Court at the request of the presiding judge Carlos Eduardo Thompson Flores .

The PT's belligerence has caused the State Secretariat of Security to prepare a strong security scheme isolating the place where the trial will be held. The Gaucho Military Brigade canceled a vacation. Contingents from the interior and the coast were moved to Porto Alegre. The streets close to the TRF-4 blocked, the traffic diverted, and there will be no expedient in the public agencies of the surroundings. Instead, patrols, helicopters and battalion clash with his complete apparatus of shields, tear gas, pepper spray, rubber bullets, dogs and cavalry. The Workers’ Party followers promise to hold a vigil the night before the day of judgment, in a square in front of the court. Lula must be present. The former president does not rule out even attending the session that will seal his fate.

Incitement to violence
The militants of the Movement of the Homeless Workers (MTST) speak in "great battle" to be held in the capital of Rio Grande do Sul. Its coordinator, Guilherme Boulos, released a video saying that the homeless will use "the full weight of militancy and the mobilization of our occupations". The Central Workers Union (CUT) wants maximum strength in all capitals before and during the trial - although it does not risk estimating how many will go to its largest mobilization, planned for Avenida Paulista. "We are going to show the prosecutors what they are doing," said the Landless Movement (MST) regional leader Adelar Pretto. He anticipates that the landless will wield hoes and scythes. For the capital of Rio Grande do Sul will be the main leaders and regional militants. The National Students Union (UNE) will participate in mobilizations in Rio Grande do Sul, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. About 500 university students from other states are expected to join the gaucho militants of the organization. "The intention is to demonstrate resistance," said President Marianna Dias. Senator Lindbergh Farias (PT-RJ) released a video on Wednesday, 17, to stir up the mood. "We have to have another left more prepared for the confrontation, for the street fights. Enough. It is not the time for a loose, bureaucratic and accommodated left, "he said. Federal MP Maria do Rosário (PT-RS) tried to summarize the spirit she wants to breathe: "Our place is resistance, both parliamentary and legal, as in the streets."

FUNERAL Empty directory indicates that the PT does not have the same force as before (Credit: Disclosure)
While the threats are under investigation and security is reinforced, the PT's speech, incredible as it may seem, is one of victimization, disregarding all that led to Lula's conviction for passive corruption and money laundering. That is, for the Workers’s Party followers petistas, justice is only valid if it is in favor. The strategy is to use this argument to pool forces for the October election. Created around the Popular Brazil Front, which also brings together political organizations subordinated to it, the movement was designed to continue in activity regardless of the outcome of the trial. "If Lula is convicted, this sentence and nothing is the same from a political point of view," said Senator and Gleisi Hoffmann party president on Saturday, 13 in Porto Alegre. The statement sounds like clear disregard for the laws. The purpose is to lengthen the legal battle and bet on increasing Lula's electoral strength until the weeks leading up to the vote, when the popular clamor would reduce the risk of a definite setback. It is a messianic bet that would require large-scale membership of the population. Something that the voter repudiates in the face of so many scandals, investigations, prosecutions and convictions involving party members.
THE WORKER'S PARTY (PT) RADICALISATION
An exemplary case was the passing of Gleisi and the allied senator Roberto Requião (PMDB-PR) to a political event in Maringá, Paraná, on January 13. There was reaction in the native land of Judge Sergio Moro and a demonstration previously marked against Lula ended up attracting thousands of people. Days before, a pro-Lula act, in the headquarters of a directory, counted on about 20 militants in wake atmosphere. Knowing of the failure of the PT mobilization, Gleisi and Requião gave up the trip almost when boarding the plane.
The capacity of mobilization of the 180 municipal and neighborhood committees created by the party in São Paulo only managed to gather leaked cats. The attempt to organize lightning strikes had not resulted in anything until last week. Even so, PT president in the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, Rodrigo Dilelio, estimates that 50,000 supporters will be received in Porto Alegre.
Groups opposed to Lula want to demonstrate more strength. At the end of the trial day, Kim Kataguiri's MBL wants to promote CarnaLula in a park in Porto Alegre, far from the court. The intention is to commemorate the overthrow of the former president's appeal, which should render him ineligible and sentenced to jail. The day before, Vem Pra Rua, in opposition to Lula, will organize acts in 41 cities asking for confirmation of the conviction.

In a meeting with PT politicians at the headquarters of TRF-4 on Friday 12, Judge Thompson Flores expressed concern about the climate of conflict created by party affiliates and supporters such as MST, MTST, CUT and UNE - all benefiting from ample appeals received during the PT governments. Without blushing, Members swear they will not stir up riots. However, MP Marco Maia (PT-RS) acknowledged that it was "difficult to control the masses", as if he held the radicals of his legend in advance for an eventual tragedy on the day of the trial. It's the face of the PT.

The conviction of former Brazilian President Lula for corruption shows the strength of the judiciary
Issued by Transparency International Secretariat
Following the 12 July conviction and sentencing of former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on corruption charges as part of the Lava Jato (Car Wash) investigation, Transparency International Chair José Ugaz said:
“The conviction of former President Lula is a significant sign that the rule of law is working in Brazil and that there is no impunity, even for the powerful.
“Lula is not the only high-level politician who is the focus of corruption investigations. The current president, Michel Temer, who is from the opposite end of the political spectrum, is also facing corruption charges, as is Senator Aécio Neves, who ran against former president Dilma Rousseff in the last presidential elections.
“The Brazilian Congress and the Supreme Court will also have to decide on these two cases. They must act with impartiality and there must be no impunity.
“The Lava Jato scandal has touched politicians of all parties and Brazil’s most powerful businesspeople. It is not surprising the Lava Jato investigators and judges are now facing attacks from all sides. This is proof that corruption does not distinguish between ideologies or political parties. Transparency International calls for guarantees that the investigations can proceed and that all judicial processes remain independent and free from interference from any political party.”
The Lava Jato investigation is focussed on the deals made by politicians and businesspeople in exchange for contracts. Transparency International honoured the Lava Jato team with its 2016 Anti-Corruption Award for its courageous and dedicated work in the fight against corruption.

Brazilian Justice Grants preliminary order, that enables Registration of Independent Candidacies
1/19/2018
An electoral judge from Goiás granted an injunction at the request of the Federal Union of Federal Judges (Unajuf), that obliges the prosecution obliges the Superior
Electoral Court (TSE) to register independent candidacies without party ties for the elections that year. The decision was based on the fact that the constitutionality of individual applications is still under analysis in the STF from a lawsuit filed about two years ago.
The injunction determines that, in the event that the supreme court decides favorably this year for the constitutionality of candidacies without party ties, the TSE must then be technically prepared to accept such candidatures.
The decision in our view is correct and meets a real demand of society and of democracy itself, since we understand that any adult Brazilian should be guaranteed the right to claim an elective position regardless of his party affiliation.
However, this decision adds to a picture of enormous insecurity and lack of clarity as to the legal norms in effect that will govern the elections of that year. This insecurity has been created by the TSE itself, which has taken the political and illegal decision not to comply with the law already in force to implement the printed vote, and to allow participation in the lawsuit of a company accused of electoral fraud in other countries.

Since 1991 building a new History for Brazil
LEADER AND STATESMAN OF THE BRAZILIAN FEDERALIST MOVEMENT IS RECEIVED AT TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL
by Thomas Korontai · Published January 11, 2018 · Updated January 12, 2018
BALLOT AND THE VOTING PROCESS, FEDERATIVE AND STRUCTURAL REORGANIZATION OF THE BRAZILIAN STATE FOR THE REDEMPTION OF CONFIDENCE IN THE INSTITUTIONS, INCLUDING STF AS COMBAT AND ELIMINATION OF CORRUPTION - ISSUES TREATED IN BERLIN
Thomas Korontai, who traveled to Europe for political, commercial and institutional purposes, was received by Transparency International (TI) Latin American advisory council members in Berlin, Federal Capital of Germany. The issue dealt with was corruption and what ways to combat it and compliance tools.
Korontai explained about the Federalist Movement, demonstrating that reforming the state model for a federation of autonomous states, as well as reforming the legal-administrative-legislative model will eliminate the cause of corruption, widening the effects dramatically. There was full agreement with the concept, adding the need, however, for the adoption of models that inhibit the creation of new means of corruption from the new premises, when cities, for example, will have much more power. IT has a huge web of global information, and proposals for combating and eliminating pockets of corruption around the world. Obviously, the application of such tools depends on political decisions, and Korontai explained that with a new state model it will be possible to seek out and implement the best complience solutions in the three spheres of power and also in the Three Powers. "It is not possible to apply anti-corruption solutions when those interested in maintaining it dominate the institutions, the state as a whole," recalls Korontai, explaining about his visit to the renowned institution in the German capital.
With a model of the constitutional essay, with which he presented the councilors, Korontai reported the possibility of putting the whole project of transformations of the country into practice already from the next elections this year, if the approval of the candidature is obtained, in judicial process who will join the STF in a few days. IT is not involved in party politics, but it was necessary to explain the whole proposed path, since a new Constituent Assembly would be a disaster for the country in this moment of absolute uncertainties. The popular referendum, after the election of a president of the Federalist Republic, to obtain approval of the referendum by Congress may be the only possible way to achieve this proposal. The federalist leader declared that he is completely committed to eliminating corruption, not only because of its immoral aspect, but because of the harmful effects on the Society, and can even be considered, to some degree, as causing even death, when resources are diverted indirectly or through health, infrastructure, security and education superfatures, and in the latter, the future of generations is compromised. He told the report that "corruption, depending on the degree to which it was practiced, should be considered a heinous crime."
URNAS ELECTRONICS
Elections also require transparency and methodologies that allow the full reliability of the electoral process. Korontai explained about the current system in Brazil and the absurdities practiced by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE), refusing systematically to have any physical counter-votes. He spoke about Convergences, of which the Federalist Movement is a member, and which coordinates, composed of almost one hundred civil movements, the struggles fought by several of its members with the TSE and Popular Action being proposed in the Federal Judiciary to demand that the institution organize the electoral sections with paper ballots for the exercise of the vote when an electronic with a coupled printer is not available. He told the councilors that this Action, if successful, could change the history of elections and political life, bringing back the lost transparency.
The doors are open, therefore, so that talks with IT begin in order to seek cooperation agreements with the Federalist Institute, technical, cultural and academic entity, under which the work of drafting the New Constitution for Brazil , since such concepts could be used in the future Charter to be proposed to the People.
Thomas Korontai will still be in the next in Portugal (he has already been in Hungary on business), where he will meet with local IT chapter officials as well as journalists and political figures.

Brazil's ex-president Lula sentenced to nearly 10 years in prison for corruption
- Two-term president found guilty in scandal linked to oil giant Petrobras
- Lawyers attack sentence and say ‘conviction came without any truth’
Although Lula, as he is universally known, will remain free pending an appeal – and his supporters denounced the sentence as political persecution – the ruling marks an extraordinary fall for a leader Barack Obama once called “the most popular politician on earth”.
Lula won two mandates as Brazil’s first president from the leftist Workers’ party and helped his hand-picked successor, Dilma Rousseff, win two subsequent elections before she was impeached last year for breaking budget rules amid a sprawling corruption scandal at state-run oil company Petrobras.
Passing sentence on the former president, Judge Sergio Moro said Lula
took part in the corruption scheme, in which billions of dollars were
paid to middlemen, executives and politicians for fat contracts.
Lula
still faces four more trials, in a process defence lawyers say
constitutes a judicial blitzkrieg designed to prevent him returning to
politics.
“Symbolically [the sentence] has a very heavy weight, not just for
him but for the country, that voted not just twice for him but twice for
the candidate he indicated,” said Carlos Melo, a professor of political
science at Insper, a business school in São Paulo.
Born into barefoot poverty in Brazil’s arid north-east, Lula ran the
powerful metal workers’ union before helping found the Workers’ party
with fellow leftists, unionists and intellectuals in 1980. He fought and
lost three elections before winning the first of two mandates in 2002. Thanks to transformative social policies and a booming economy, tens of millions of Brazilians escaped poverty during his rule.
No other Brazilian politician in recent decades has been able to
capture popular imagination with such verve. Although his reputation has
been tarnished in recent years, he currently leads polling for the 2018
election.
If his conviction is upheld by a higher court, however, he will be ineligible to stand.
“He will dramatize this process, of course, he will say this is a
process to stop him being a candidate. The condemnation will enter the
political game,” Melo said. “The Workers’ party will exploit this
politically and say Lula is a victim.”
Wednesday’s sentence was related to accusations that Lula benefited
from about £590,000 in bribes from a construction company called OAS,
which the prosecution alleged was paid in the shape of a seaside duplex
apartment, renovated at Lula’s request.
In his ruling, Moro said that Lula had bought a simpler apartment in
the same building worth about £53,000, and the company had upgraded him.
Prosecutors said the payment was part of around £21m that OAS paid in
bribes to Lula’s Workers’ party in return for lucrative contracts as
part of two oil refineries that Petrobras was building, Moro wrote in
his sentence.
“The responsibility of a president of the republic is enormous, and,
consequently, so is his guilt when he practises crimes,” Moro wrote.
During his trial in May, Lula gave five hours of testimony
in which he angrily proclaimed his innocence and denied ever owning the
apartment. His lawyers, Cristiano Martins and Valeska Martins, attacked
the sentence in a statement.
“President Lula is innocent. For over three years, Lula has been
subject to a politically motivated investigation. No credible evidence
of guilt has been produced, and overwhelming proof of his innocence
blatantly ignored,” they said. “We will prove Lula’s innocence in all
unbiased courts including the United Nations.”
Other leftist groups also condemned the ruling. “The conviction came
without any truth,” the Homeless Workers’ Movement said in a statement.
“It is evident that the sentence is a form of judicial shortcut to
remove Lula from the political dispute.”
But the sentence divided Brazilians. Angel Inoue, 36, a TV
scriptwriter from São Paulo, said she was pleased. “I know the (Workers’
party) started as a cool idea, but at a certain point, this idea was
substituted for power and greed,” she said.
Mariluce de Souza, 35, an artist and community leader from the
Complexo do Alemão favela in Rio de Janeiro, said Lula’s case was more
closely linked to his party than him personally.
“All politicians are guilty of some sort of corruption,” she said.
Lula’s government was first hit by a corruption scandal called the Mensalão, in which lawmakers were allegedly paid to vote for government measures.
He was still re-elected in 2006 and left office with an 87% approval
rating. When his successor Rousseff was impeached in August 2016, she
and Lula denounced the process as a “coup”.
Rousseff was succeeded by her former running mate, Michel Temer, whose administration has also been dogged by graft scandals.
Temer himself is facing corruption charges that could see him tried
by Brazil’s supreme court if two-thirds of Brazil’s lower house agree in
a vote expected in the coming days.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are
reading the Guardian than ever but advertising revenues across the media
are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up
a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you
can see why we need to ask for your help. The Guardian’s independent,
investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to
produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective matters –
because it might well be your perspective, too.
I appreciate there not being a paywall: it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few. I’m happy to make a contribution so others with less means still have access to information. Thomasine F-R.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as £1, you can support the Guardian – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Justiça Concede Liminar Que Possibilita Registro de Candidaturas Avulsas
19/01/2018
Uma juíza eleitoral de Goiás concedeu liminar a pedido da União Nacional dos Juízes Federais (Unajuf) que obriga o TSE a registrar candidaturas avulsas sem vínculo partidário para as eleições desse ano. A decisão baseou-se no fato de que a constitucionalidade das candidaturas avulsas estar ainda sob análise no STF a partir de uma ação movida há cerca de dois anos.
A liminar determina que, na hipótese de a suprema côrte decidir favoravelmente ainda esse ano pela constitucionalidade das candidaturas sem vínculo partidário, o TSE deverá então estar preparado tecnicamente para acolher tais candidaturas.
A decisão ao nosso ver é correta e atende uma demanda real da sociedade e da própria democracia, pois entendemos que a qualquer brasileiro adulto deve ser assegurado o direito de pleitear um cargo eletivo independentemente de sua filiação partidária.
No entanto, essa decisão vem somar-se a um quadro de enorme insegurança e falta de clareza quanto às normais legais em efeito que irão gerir as eleições desse ano. Essa insegurança vem sendo criada pelo próprio TSE, que tomou a decisão política e ilegal de não cumprir a lei já em vigor de implementação do voto impresso, e de permitir a participação no pleito de uma empresa acusada de fraudes eleitorais em outros países.

LÍDER E ESTADISTA DO MOVIMENTO FEDERALISTA É RECEBIDO NA TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL
por Thomas Korontai · Published 11 de janeiro de 2018 · Updated 12 de janeiro de 2018
URNAS E PROCESSO DE VOTAÇÃO, REORGANIZAÇÃO FEDERATIVA E ESTRUTURAL DO ESTADO BRASILEIRO PARA O RESGATE DA CONFIANÇA NAS INSTITUIÇÕES, INCLUINDO O STF COMO MEIOS DE COMBATE E ELIMINAÇÃO DA CORRUPÇÃO – TEMAS TRATADOS EM BERLIM
Thomas Korontai, em viagem pela Europa com objetivos políticos, comerciais e institucionais, foi recebido nesta data, em Berlim, Capital Federal da Alemanha, por membros conselheiros para a América Latina da Transparency International (TI). O assunto tratado foi corrupção e quais as formas de se combatê-la e ferramentas de compliance.
Korontai explicou sobre o Movimento Federalista, demonstrando que a reforma do modelo de Estado para uma federação de estados autônomos, bem como, a reforma do modelo jurídico-administrativo-legislativo eliminará a causa da corrupção, ampliandoreduzindo os efeitos drasticamente. Houve plena concordância com o conceito, acrescentando-se a necessidade, contudo, da adoção de modelos que inibam a criação de novos meios de corrupção a partir das novas premissas, quando as cidades, por exemplo, terão muito mais poder. A TI tem uma teia enorme de informações globais, e propostas para o combate e eliminação dos focos de corrupção em todo o mundo. Obviamente que a aplicação de tais ferramentas depende de decisões políticas, e Korontai explicou que, com um novo modelo de Estado será possível se buscar e implementar as melhores soluções de complience nas três esferas de poder e também nos Três Poderes. “Não é possível se aplicar soluções anti-corrupção quando os interessados em mantê-la dominam as instituições, o Estado como um todo”, lembra Korontai, ao explicar sobre sua visita à renomada instituição na capital alemã.
Com um modelo do ensaio constitucional, com o qual presenteou os conselheiros, Korontai relatou a possibilidade de pôr todo o projeto de transformações do País em prática já a partir das próximas eleições deste ano, caso se consiga a aprovação da candidatura avulsa, em processo judicial que ingressará no STF em alguns dias. A TI não se envolve com política partidária, porém foi necessário se explanar todo o caminho proposto, pois uma nova Assembleia Constituinte seria um desastre para o País neste momento de incertezas absolutas. O referendo popular, a partir da eleição de um presidente da República federalista, com a obtenção da aprovação do referendo pelo Congresso pode ser o único caminho possível para a obtenção de êxito desta proposta. O líder federalista declarou que está completamente comprometido com a eliminação da corrupção, não apenas pelo seu aspecto imoral, mas pelos efeitos danosos à Sociedade, podendo ser considerado até mesmo, em determinados graus, como causadores até de mortes, quando se desviam recursos indiretamente ou por meio de superfaturamentos da Saúde, Infraestrutura, Segurança e Educação, sendo que nesta última, se compromete o futuro de gerações. Ele disse à reportagem, que “a corrupção, dependendo do grau na qual foi praticada, deveria ser considerada crime hediondo”.
URNAS ELETRÔNICAS
Eleições também exigem transparência e metodologias que permitam a plena confiabilidade do processo eleitoral. Korontai explanou sobre o sistema em curso no Brasil e dos absurdos praticados pelo TSE – Tribunal Superior Eleitoral – recusando-se sistematicamente a ter qualquer contraprova física dos votos. Falou sobre o Convergências, do qual o Movimento Federalista é integrante, e o qual coordena, composto por quase cem movimentos civis, das lutas travadas por diversos de seus membros junto ao TSE e da Ação Popular que está sendo proposta no Judiciário Federal, para exigir que a instituição organize as seções eleitorais com cédulas de papel para o exercício do voto quando não se dispuser urna eletrônica com impressora acoplada. Ele disse aos conselheiros que esta Ação, se resultar bem sucedida, poderá mudar a história das eleições e da vida política, trazendo de volta a transparência perdida.
As portas estão abertas portanto, para que que se iniciem conversações com a TI a fim de buscar acordos de cooperação com o Instituto Federalista, entidade técnica, cultural e acadêmica, sob o qual, se desenvolvem os trabalhos de elaboração da Nova Constituição para o Brasil, uma vez que, tais conceitos poderão ser aproveitados na futura Carta a ser proposta ao Povo.
Thomas Korontai ainda estará na próxima em Portugal (já passou pela Hungria, a negócios), onde terá encontros com autoridades do capítulo local da TI, bem como, jornalistas e personalidades políticas.
