Jair Bolsonaro, April 22, 2020

“mais um motivo para a troca”

Portal translation: one more reason for the replacement

The translation is the portal's; the original text, in Portuguese, is the one that prevails.

Leaked message, not a public statement. Shown by Jornal Nacional (TV Globo) from a screenshot presented by Moro, who said he took it immediately after the conversation. Globo did not report any forensic examination. Bolsonaro, in later addresses, denied having asked for information about investigations (fala:bolsonaro-resposta-nao-pediu-informacoes); we did not find a specific denial of authenticity. This message was used by Alexandre de Moraes in the ruling of April 29, 2020 (MS 37.097).

Context: Bolsonaro's reply to Moro after sending the link to a news item from the site O Antagonista saying that the Federal Police (PF) was 'on the heels' of 10 to 12 allied lawmakers.

Verification: Checked against the journalistic record: Moro exibe mensagens com Bolsonaro e Zambelli ao Jornal Nacional (Sul21), on Oct. 24, 2026. Poder360 spells it 'Mais 1 motivo para a troca.' Image shown by Globo not examined.
