A esquerda apparatchik dizia que a Selic alta era conspiração de Campos Neto. Agora, com novo presidente do BC nomeado por Lula, a Selic vai a 14,75% — maior em 20 anos. E o que fazem? Atacam Campos Neto por ir ao setor privado. Hipocrisia pura. A decisão é técnica, sempre foi.

The Mystery of ICE’s Unidentifiable Arrests In early March, the agency announced that it had arrested forty-eight people in New Mexico—a month later, their identities and whereabouts remain unknown.

ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agency’s unidentifiable arrests.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Latam has been spared. Tariffs on many countries—especially Asia—are significantly higher. Those targeting Latam remain relatively low, hovering around 10%. Whether this reflects strategic priorities or political influence, it’s clear the region has been treated with relative leniency.

Lula says he's chosen his new institutional relations minister because she's a "pretty woman".

Trying to defend Lula, Hoffmann argues that Bolsonaro was much worse, a real misogynist.

Sure, but - can't we do better than either of them?

Tarcísio, reagindo à denúncia contra Bolsonaro: nega envolvimento do ex-presidente em plano golpista e afirma: "estamos juntos".

E tem quem ainda considere Tarcísio um democrata, um centrista razoável, um bom gestor, uma boa alternativa.

Boa sorte.

PT insiste no erro.

Vai entregar o Brasil a Tarcisio - um autoritário violento e perigoso, com muito mais capacidade do que Bolsonaro.

Lula quer explorar foz do Amazonas e fala em "lenga lenga do IBAMA"

O real compromisso do Presidente Lula com o meio ambiente é, no mínimo, questionável.

Colombia’s president: Legalize cocaine, it’s no worse than whiskey Global drug trafficking could be “easily dismantled” if coke was “sold like wine,” according to the Latin American leader.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro said during a government meeting that cocaine is “not worse than whiskey” and that it's only illegal because it comes from Latin America.

O chapéu estilo panamá do Lula é bonito, mas não combina com o terno - está bizarro.

O chapéu é de palha e de cor clara. É informal. Deveria ser usado com camisa, sem paletó, de preferência de cor clara. Ou com terno claro.

Com esse terno, Lula deveria usar chapéu estilo fedora, de cor escura.
