Approximately 28,500 supporters gathered to hear the senator sharpen his attacks against both President Lula and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. The visual centerpiece of the demonstration was an inflatable depicting Donald Trump holding a jailed effigy of Lula, a clear signal of the movement's alignment with international right-wing figures and its rejection of current judicial oversight. Flavio Bolsonaro characterized the legal investigations surrounding his father as a weaponized campaign of political persecution orchestrated by a compromised court system.
President Lula remained focused on a different script, marking the holiday with a traditional military parade that emphasized national sovereignty and democratic stability. This stark divergence in messaging underscores the widening rift in Brazilian politics. While the government attempted to frame the day around institutional unity, the Sao Paulo rally highlighted a persistent and vocal opposition determined to keep judicial hostility at the center of the pre-election discourse.
