baron-pierreIV Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 I'm curious, are consulates/embassies located within close proximity to each other in San Francisco or other cities, or is it the norm to have them spread out all over a city? Since Houston has no zoning laws, the largest city in the US without any zoning laws, I thought that was the main reason why they have consulates in the most random of places. Don't quite get the thrust of your question. SF being a compact city, all the consulates are all downtown together with all the civic, gov't, and office buildings. It wouldn't make sense to put a consulate out of nowhere in, say, San Mateo or in San Leandro (well, it would've been convenient for me if it were in the latter...). Was surprised at how big the waiting room was. They had 9 windows and when I got there, there might have been about 15 people in the 11:20-11:40 slot. Seats probably for 60 people.

He was part of a Facebook group called 'Fora PT' (Against Dilma Rousseff , Lula and the Workers Party) and now he is leading the operation. About the Lava Jato operation: This operation is accused of 'against the government, only' for many people in Brazil.

paul Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Brazil party set to abandon Rousseff, making impeachment more likely Brazil's largest party will decide on Tuesday to break away from President Dilma Rousseff's floundering coalition, party leaders said, sharply raising the odds that the country's first woman president will be impeached amid a corruption scandal. in Brasilia, a presidential aide said the break was "irreversible" and the Rousseff government was now focusing on individual members of the PMDB and other parties to try to convince them to vote against impeachment by offering government jobs and pork barrel for their districts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cauê Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Why this is the most pathetic moment in the history of Brazil? 1. This is not about corruption. It was never about corruption and for "a better Brazil": Kataguiri, the guy against "public companies" and protest leader Kataguiri (anti-government protest leader) explained to The Guardian in 2015 "We defend free markets, lower taxes and the privatization of all public companies" (To understend: Privatization of public companies is part of the ideology of the political right in Brazil). FROM: http://www.globalres...-brazil/5516634 Kataguiri calls people like "the Power Rangers" to fight against the government (the political left) in a article of the main Brazilian newspapper "Folha de S. Paulo". 2. The Brazilian media attacks the (left) government and says to the people: "the opposition is super": "Veja" is the most popular magazine in Brazil. For example, for Veja magazine Bernie Sanders is a "delay". Trump is very good! But Sanders is Bad. Can you understend? This is the Brazilian "great" media. Article "O conto do mau velhinho: por que Bernie Sanders é um atraso de vida" http://veja.abril.com.br/blog/mundialista/o-conto-do-mau-velhinho-por-que-bernie-sanders-e-um-atraso-de-vida/ 3. People, manipulated by the media (historically against popular governments like Getúlio Vargas and Jango) and inflated by a non sense hatred, go to the streets against the government: "Yeah! We are the "Power Rangers against Corruption" Now, Brazil will be a better place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cauê Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 LOS ANGELES TIMES, march, 28 - 2016 The politicians voting to impeach Brazil's president are accused of more corruption than she is Efforts to impeach Brazil's president accelerated this month as the country fell into full-blown crisis. But the congressional commission that will help decideDilma Rousseff's fate has its own legal problems. Of 65 members on the impeachment commission, 37 face charges of corruption or other serious crimes, according to data prepared for the Los Angeles Times by the local organization Transparencia Brasil. The commission does not represent just the congressional faction that wants Rousseff impeached, but contains members of both the ruling coalition and the opposition.

FAAN Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Cauê's posts are so false, blind and/or manipulated that make me feel sick. Anyways, in the real world: Brazil president closer to impeachment as coalition partner quits Dilma Rousseff’s hopes of seeing out her four-year term took a major hit when the PMDB voted to leave the governing alliance: ‘This is her D-Day’ says analyst President Dilma Rousseff's hopes of seeing out her term of office have received a potentially fatal blow after the biggest party in the Brazilian congress voted to abandon her ruling coalition. The vote by the Brazilian Democratic Movement party (or PMDB) could trigger a defection from Rousseff’s coalition by other smaller parties, and greatly increase the prospect that she will lose an impeachment vote in the lower house next month and be suspended from office. To cries of “Workers party out!” and “Onward Brazil!”, PMDB leaders announced their decision to break up the coalition. All six remaining ministers in the cabinet will resign by 12 April. “We’re going to try to change the country. The economic and social crisis is very serious,” senator Romero Juca, the PMDB’s first vice-president, told a party meeting in the capital Brasilia. Rousseff now leads a fragile minority government. Senior officials in the governing Workers party insist the president can still be saved from what they say is a coup attempt against an elected leader who still has more than half of her four-year mandate to serve. But their efforts to shore up support look increasingly desperate after the PMDB – which has 68 of the 513 seats in the lower house – decided to leave an alliance that has propped up the government for more than 13 years. David Fleischer, political science professor at the University of Brasília, said the defection would create a domino effect that is likely to topple Rousseff. “This is her D-Day,” he said. “[Now the PMDB has left] the possibility of her impeachment increases to 90%.” The president’s opponents will now have an increased majority on the impeachment committee which could give the go-ahead for a full congressional vote, most likely on 17 April, Fleischer said.
