Portuguese people follow news about Donald Trump daily, while information about the Spanish prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, only occasionally appears in Portuguese media. This difference in media coverage between the two leaders is the central theme of this brief analysis.

The article suggests there is a significant disparity in the attention that Portuguese media devote to these two politicians. While Trump receives constant coverage, Sánchez is mentioned much less frequently. This implicit comparison raises questions about the criteria used by Portuguese media outlets to select and prioritize international news. The text, although short, indicates a reflection on the impact that media exposure has on the public perception of foreign political leaders by Portuguese society.

Report from PF cited by Moraes says that Mendonça acted with different criteria in Lulinha and ACM Neto cases

Minister Alexandre de Moraes, from the Supreme Federal Court, accused colleague André Mendonça of directing investigations against targets for "personal and political motives," citing a Federal Police report. According to the PF, Mendonça would have adopted different criteria when evaluating cases involving businessman Fábio Luís Lula da Silva (Lulinha) and candidate for governor of Bahia ACM Neto, both with similar factual situations but treated differently according to the political spectrum of those involved. Moraes included Mendonça in the fake news inquiry citing "strong indications" of administrative impropriety, abuse of authority and crimes, a decision that generated controversy for involving a fellow court member.
