Michelle calls Lula and Janja a ‘little couple who demonize Israel’ at an event in Goiás

Former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro gave a speech during a PL Mulher event this Saturday, the 11th, full of attacks on president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) and the current first lady, Rosângela Silva, known as Janja, calling them a “little couple that demonizes Israel”.

“We will no longer accept this damned left governing our nation. A little couple, who demonize Israel, but who have now started attending churches,” said Michelle. “Let’s open our spiritual eyes. Let’s understand that the lie is within these people”, he continued.

The speech took place in Rio Verde (GO) at an event by PL Mulher, a party group of which Michelle is national president. The former first lady also accused Lula, Janja and other left-wing leaders of attending churches to “deceive the Christian people”.

The wife of former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) is one of the strongest voices in the current configuration of the far right and has been considered as a possible candidate or vice-president on a possible ticket in 2026.

PL Mulher is Michelle’s platform to enter politics and garner the support of this group historically refractory to Bolsonarism.
