The meeting to pay tribute to Elon Musk ends in a brawl in the Chamber: ‘Slack’


The motion of praise for the entrepreneur gave rise to a discussion between Glauber Braga (PSOl-RJ) and Gilvan da Federal (PL-ES)


Summary

In the House Security Committee a controversy occurred between MPs Glauber Braga (PSOL-RJ) and Gilvan da Federal (PL-ES) when they discussed the request to honor the entrepreneur Elon Musk, after his declaration of non-compliance with the decisions of the Brazilian courts.




The meeting of the House Security Committee, which approved a motion of praise in favor of the entrepreneur and owner of the company Xold TwitterElon Musk, created confusion between MPs Glauber Braga (PSOL-RJ) and Gilvan da Federal (PL-ES) this Tuesday 9th.

During the debate, MP Gilvan da Federal even debated and challenged Glauber Braga to “speak about him outside of Congress”. Due to the heated emotions, the parliamentarians had to intervene to avoid a possible physical clash between them.

The request for tribute from the entrepreneur Elon Musk, who said that he will not abide by the Brazilian judicial decisions decided by the Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Alexandre de Moraes, is involved in another controversy, was made by deputy Coronel Meira (PL-FOOT). Speaking about the tribute, the parliamentarian mentioned the country’s public safety policy.

“Brazil is a country plagued by corruption and organized crime. I hope our noble MP will soon recognize this when he gives his speech,” he said, quoting Braga, who had joined the session.

In response to Colonel Meira, PSOL MP Glauber Braga cited alleged involvement of former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) and militiamen in Rio de Janeiro.

“You, Colonel Meira, mentioned organized crime, without mentioning that the then state deputy Flávio Bolsonaro, now a senator, employed family members of a militiaman,” he said.

MP Gilvan da Federal of the PL, who listened to the speech with the Brazilian flag on his shoulders, spoke out against his colleague’s position. With that, Braga began referring to Gilvan.

“It makes no sense to put a Brazilian flag on your shoulders and kneel before a billionaire who attacks democracy.”

After the statement, Gilvan stood up from his chair and was held back by the other parliamentarians present at the session. At one point, he told Braga to “wash your mouth out for mentioning his name” and even challenged him.

Responding to the provocation, Glauber defined the deputy as “Bolsonarist and weak”. With the discussion heated, the two parliamentarians were detained by their colleagues.

Faced with the situation and the continuous interruptions, the president of the college, MP Alberto Fraga (PL-DF), declared that he will no longer make agreements to discuss agendas with government officials. He further stated that he will refer Glauber Braga’s conduct to the Ethics Council.
