The President of Brazil impeached by Senate.

The Brazilian Senate, today, Wednesday,
August 31, 2016, impeached its first female
President, Dilma Rousseff.
The Senate voted 61 to 20 to convict
Rousseff on charges of manipulating the
federal budget in an effort to conceal the
nation’s mounting economic problems.
Meanwhile, the final removal of Rousseff
who was suspended in May due to
corruption, means her Vice-President
Michel Temer will take over as President.
Speaking after Rousseff was impeached, a
Workers’ Party senator from Piauí in
northeast Brazil, Regina Sousa berated the
former President, saying, “You veered from
the narrative when you were elected
president of the republic as a woman, from
the left, a former militant against the
dictatorship, without a husband to pose by
your side in the photographs.
“You never fit in the cute little dress
designed by the conservative elite of this
country,” Ms. Sousa added.
Also reacting to Rousseff’s removal, her
lawyer, José Eduardo Cardozo, said he was
stunned that her opponents had dragged
Rousseff’s family into the acerbic debate,
pointing out that Rousseff was never
accused of embezzling public funds to
benefit her family.
In his words, “If you want to condemn
her, go ahead, but don’t mock the honor of
a dignified woman,” said Mr. Cardozo, also
crying as he spoke.
Meanwhile, Mr. Temer who is expected to
replace Rousseff, was recently found guilty
of violating campaign finance limits, a
conviction that could make him ineligible
to run for office for eight years. Beyond
that, a construction executive has testified
that Mr. Temer was the beneficiary of a
$300,000 bribe, an assertion Mr. Temer
disputes.
Similarly, Creuza Maria Oliveira, the
president of the National Federation of
Domestic Workers, which represents
millions of maids who benefited from the
strengthening of labor laws by Rousseff,
has condemned Mr. Temer adding that,
“It’s painfully obvious that Temer is a slap
in the face to Brazilian democracy.”
Speaking further, Oliveira said, “Dilma is a
champion of the poor,” said Ms. Oliveira,
who was among the supporters of Ms.
Rousseff who accompanied her to the
Senate this week. “Temer is a champion of
his own political class, which he wants to
shield from justice.”
