The WhatsApp group created by André Janones is a digital mobilization tool for Lula's campaign in the second round of the elections.
Former federal deputy and one of the founders of the PT, political scientist Paulo Delgado (MG) criticizes the term "Lula's Army" to designate the WhatsApp megagroup created for the campaign of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT).
Created by deputy André Janones (Rede-MG), the group already has more than 8 million users and is considered one of the main tools to boost Lula's candidacy in the second round. Janones is called "general" and issues "missions" to his followers, emulating barracks language.
According to Delgado, who was a constituent deputy and is now away from the PT, making this connection is disrespectful to those persecuted by the military regime.
"Calling it Lula's Army is pathetic. It hurts the memory of those who asked for reparations for the crimes of the military regime. The PT was born to confront the abuses of authoritarianism, it should not adopt this nomenclature", he tells the Panel.
The day is marked by the last presidential debate between Flávio Bolsonaro and Lula, the verification of facts by Fato or Fake, international repercussions of the Brazilian elections, food inflation data, elections in Israel and TSE actions against social networks.

The government of São Paulo signed a R$6 billion contract with the MEZ-RZK Novo Centro Consortium to build a new administrative headquarters in the central region of the capital, aiming to centralize 22 thousand employees and revitalize the area with housing and public spaces.
Globo carries out the latest debate between Flávio Bolsonaro and Lula, with fact checking. The TSE demands explanations from Meta and X regarding political posts. Meanwhile, new data from Datafolha and advances in cancer vaccines are highlighted.

The open-air markets in Petrolina, in the Sertão of Pernambuco, will continue to operate normally this Sunday (25th), the day of the second round of elections, with public service from 5am to 5pm in various neighborhoods and districts.

Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro adopt opposite strategies in the second round: intensive mobilization versus caution. The next president will have to deal with a scenario of fiscal restrictions and a conservative Congress, in addition to defining control of strategic bodies.
