While RS is experiencing tragedy, the right only talks about Madonna, says Gleisi

The president of the PT (Workers’ Party), deputy Gleisi Hoffmann (PR), said that while Rio Grande do Sul is crossing the “Greatest tragedy in its history”, the far right discusses the presence of senator Jorge Seif (PL-SC) at Madonna’s show. There are 401 municipalities, out of 497, in the State affected by the storm. At least 95 people died, according to Civil Defense.

“Rio Grande do Sul is going through the greatest tragedy in its history, the federal government is doing its best to rebuild the State, and the discussion on the agenda in the far-right bench in Congress is about forgiving Bolsonaro senator Jorge Seif for having gone at the Madonna show”, https://twitter.com/gleisi/status/1788022773769482518 the deputy on her profile on X (formerly Twitter), on Tuesday (May 7, 2024).

The congressman went to the Senate plenary to apologize to his voters for going to the American singer’s concert in Copacabana, Rio, on Saturday (May 4). He said he was not disrespecting the population in the south of the country who suffer from heavy rains, or “honoring issues that I didn’t know would occur.”

Madonna’s performance was filled with moments criticized by conservatives, such as the kiss between two women and simulated sex.
