Deconstructing Disney
WALL-E
Episode SummaryErin and Rachel travel 700 years into the future to discuss WALL-E (2008), Pixar’s robot romance with an unintentionally anti-capitalist message. Fatphobia and misogyny make this dystopian tale unwatchable despite its endearing protagonist, striking animation, and moments of nostalgia. Episode BibliographyThe 81st Academy Awards | 2009.

Guerras das emendas projeta 2025 instável na política
O ministro Flávio Dino, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), cobrou mais informações da Advocacia-Geral da União para avaliar o pedido de liberação de emendas da Saúde. Mais cedo, o ministro negou outro pedido feito pelo Senado. A decisão colocou o Senado Federal, pela primeira vez, como potencial alvo das investigações na destinação destes recursos. O diretor da CNN em Brasília, Daniel Rittner, e Beatriz Rey, cientista política e pesquisadora da Universidade de São Paulo e da Fundação Popvox, comentam o assunto.

Emendas PIX: o grande cabo eleitoral
O índice de reeleição de prefeitos ficou em cerca de 80% nesta eleição. E o cabo eleitoral mais determinante foram as emendas parlamentares. Dentro do universo dos 178 municípios que receberam o maior volume de recursos de emendas PIX desde 2020 – um grupo que está sendo analisado com lupa pela Controladoria Geral da União – 93% dos prefeitos que tentaram se reeleger venceram nas urnas. Um dos casos mais emblemáticos é o de Macapá (AP), que somou R$ 129 milhões em recursos e viu Dr. Furlan (MDB) ser reeleito com 85% dos votos, o maior índice entre capitais do país. Para explicar como essa...

O Assunto
O descontrole das emendas parlamentares
Desde 2019, um dispositivo facilitou – e muito – a transferência de recursos do Orçamento federal para prefeituras e governos estaduais. Com as emendas individuais de transferência especial, deputados e senadores decidem para onde vão os recursos sem precisar justificar ou informar o destino do dinheiro: a transferência é tão simples que recebeu o apelido de “emenda pix”. No início do mês, o ministro do Supremo Flávio Dino suspendeu o pagamento dessas emendas, que já passaram de R$ 4 bilhões apenas neste ano; uma decisão que ainda irá passar pelo plenário virtual do STF, mas que já fomenta...
