“O presidente me disse, mais de uma vez, que queria ter uma pessoa da confiança pessoal dele, que ele pudesse ligar, que ele pudesse colher informações, relatórios de inteligência”
Portal translation: The president told me, more than once, that he wanted to have a person of his personal trust, whom he could call, from whom he could gather information, intelligence reports
The translation is the portal's; the original text, in Portuguese, is the one that prevails.

Verification
Checked against the journalistic record: Interferência na PF, fraude e demissão: veja dez frases de Moro, on Oct. 24, 2026. Excerpt selected by Gazeta (ES). Transcription discrepancy, verified on October 24, 2026: the full speech at Poder360 has "a person of his personal acquaintance" (and "expressly" before "that he wanted"), not "of personal trust"; the full text prevails (fala:moro-demissao-pessoa-de-contato-pessoal), used in the comparisons. Video not checked. This is an accusation attributed to Moro, contested by Bolsonaro; it is not an established fact in this version of the archive.

Portal translation: Lula is not an electoral option, with his government marked by the corruption of democracy. Against the PT's project of power, I declare, in the runoff, my support for Bolsonaro.

Portal translation: Maintaining the PF's autonomy was essential for this work to be possible. Whether willingly or because of pressure from society, this autonomy was maintained and that allowed the results to be achieved

Acertamos, como fiz com todos os ministros: vai ter autonomia no seu ministério. Autonomia não é sinal de soberania. A todos os ministros, e a ele também, falei do meu poder de veto. Os cargos chaves teriam que passar pelas minhas mãos e eu daria o sinal verde ou não.
Portal translation: We agreed, as I did with all the ministers: he will have autonomy in his ministry. Autonomy is not a sign of sovereignty. To all the ministers, and to him as well, I spoke of my veto power. The key positions would have to pass through my hands and I would give the green […]
