Renan Santos attacks STF and Flávio Bolsonaro amid presidential campaign

Presidential candidate Renan Santos (Missão) has launched a series of sharp attacks against political rivals and the Brazilian judiciary. During recent press conferences and campaign events, Santos criticized the Supreme Federal Court (STF), describing it as 'completely insane' and suggesting that judicial decisions are being driven by ministers' interests in avoiding scandals.

Santos specifically addressed the Banco Master case, calling the situation 'absurd' and 'comic.' He called for the full removal of secrecy regarding the case and demanded accountability for those involved. He further alleged that Senator Flávio Bolsonaro received millions from banker Daniel Vorcaro, suggesting a potential exchange of favors.

In addition to judicial critiques, Santos targeted Flávio Bolsonaro personally, labeling him a 'bandit' and 'stupid.' He also addressed his campaign strategy in Santa Catarina, predicting that the state is moving away from Bolsonarismo and that this will be the last election where voters support candidates linked to the Bolsonaro family. On security policy, Santos proposed a 30-year prison sentence for armed robbery without the possibility of parole.
