The impeachment process is strictly following the Constitution and being closely monitored by the Supreme Court. The majority of the Brazilian population, the majority of deputies and the majority of senators support it. The majority of foreign watchers consider it a legitimate process. It is not a coup by any stretch of the imagination.
A valid impeachment needs to follow from legitimate charges of wrongdoing according to the constitution. The charges against the president have not been ruled as crimes, unlike what happened for example to Mr. Collor de Mello in the 90s. The charges are merely accusations, which need to be proved beyond doubt. Therefore, the whole process is illegal. The congress and the majority of the country are betting on the fact that the charges will be considered as real crimes by the supreme court, but there is a lot of questions if this will eventually happen (contrary to what the media is promoting). The government, on the other hand, is pretty sure that there is no crime involved. Because of the shaky ground of the whole process, a large number of jurists consider the whole thing to be a coup.
Se voce gosta tanto assim da Dilma, por que nao volta a morar la? Deve ser muito comodo para voce defender o governo do PT sentadinho ai em Nova York, ne? Queria ver se voce fosse um dos mais de 11 milhoes de desempregados!
Quando eu morava la e trabalhava para uma grande empresa de telecom, antes mesmo do escandalo do mensalao, eu vi o Lula roubando bem na minha frente, recebendo 150 mil reais por mes de propina disfarcados de "prestacao de servicos de consultoria" (a forma preferida de agir da quadrilha do PT) atraves da empresa do filho dele. Servicos que obviamente nunca foram prestados: a epoca, a G4 sequer tinha funcionarios!
Sinceramente, eu nao ligo se a Dilma vai ser impichada porque jogou papel de bala no chao. Ela fraudou as eleicoes, jogando a economia no lixo no processo. O PT esta transformando o Brasil na nova Venezuela. Independentemente de qual argumento formal pelo qual efetivamente consiga justificar-se, ela merece ser deposta.
Quem deveria se informar sobre tudo o que realmente esta acontecendo por la e voce. Voce fica so nas superficialidades.
Defensor de bandido. Continue assistindo tudo de longe sem se importar com as pessoas que sofrem nas maos do governo mais corrupto da historia do Brasil.
Falta uma semana so para acabar a farsa petista, para sempre.
Whenever they're not making official rulings, what judges of the STF say is just a matter of personal opinion. To validate the impeachment these judges need to rule on the validity of the charges raised against president Rousseff.
By force of law, judges are not allowed to pre-judge, i.e., to express to the public what they will decide on the bench. Suggesting the opposite is the exact definition of propaganda. This impeachment will only be legal if the supreme decides so, and that can only happen when they sit to judge this issue. Until then, the whole process is proceeding in judicial limbo. It can quite rightfully be termed as a coup.
No, it's not a political limbo. It got voted in the congress just as the law requires and is awaiting the voting in the senate just as the law requires it. The president of the STF presides the hearing on the senate where testimonies are gathered, and the STF votes for the impeachment. It's not "a coup" just because it hasn't reached that state yet. Stop spreading misinformation.
You are the one not well informed. The STF allowed the process to continue because it doesn't want to interfere with the prerogatives of the congress. But in the STF hearing of 4/14, they decided that the accusations need to be analyzed by the judges for the process to be valid. This means that the supreme court can stop this process to decide on the criminal charges that have been made against president Rousseff when they see fit, and this will certainly happen before the end of the process. Without criminal charges, the impeachment is invalid according to the constitution, it doesn't matter how many votes it had.

This is the case for EVERY IMPEACHMENT proceeding. It's called separation of powers.

Except there are criminal charges, in this request and in the dozen other requests that are awaiting. Stop spreading misinformation.
