Allied Pastors, Malafaia Says Flavio 'Responds Wrongly' About Dark Horse and Rodovalho Admits Difficult Scenario After Operation

oglobo10 September 2026 at 18:39

The new Federal Police operation regarding the financing of the film "Dark Horse," which tells the trajectory of former President Jair Bolsonaro, generated concerns among evangelical pastors allied with Flavio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ). The operation investigates the fundraising for the cinematic production.

Two of the main evangelical leaders close to the senator, Silas Malafaia and Robson Rodovalho, maintain their support for Bolsonaro but have shown concern about the effects of the investigations on the presidential race in the final stretch of the campaign.

Silas Malafaia, founder of the Assembly of God Victory in Christ, criticized the way Flavio Bolsonaro has responded to questions about the film. The pastor argues that the candidate should emphasize that he participated in fundraising but had no responsibility over the administration of the money.

Robson Rodovalho acknowledged the difficult scenario after the operation but reinforced that the alliance between evangelicals and Bolsonaro remains solid. Malafaia added that trying to attribute administrative responsibility to Flavio would be a "joke."

New social welfare model in Higher Education: strengthen without excluding

The article analyzes the new Regulation for the Award of Scholarships to Higher Education Students approved by the Portuguese Government in May, which adjusts scholarship amounts to students' economic conditions and regional cost of living. The rector of the University of Aveiro warns that preliminary simulations at the institution indicate that around 20% of scholarship recipients analyzed (15 out of 72 cases) could no longer meet the conditions to receive a scholarship under the new rules. Although recognizing that the phased implementation until 2027/28 is positive, he argues that the reform requires a rigorous assessment of its effects, as the success of a social welfare policy is not measured only by the value of support, but also by the ability to ensure that no one is left behind.
