Given how corrupt the Lula government is, I wonder how long she will last before either quiting or being replaced. Unless she is willing to play ball.

Weren't other administrations and government corrupt either? If past governments were also corrupt, better some rainforest protection than none. Especially considering the last one.

Lula's government corruption was in a whole new level.

Really doubt it was bigger than the Vargas era, or Military Dictatorship era, or Collor era, or even arguably Cardoso's era.

Is Lula corrupt? Likely yeah, I do believe he's guilty of some of the stuff he was previously arrested for.

But "do shit my way even if it's against all you stand for or get replaced" is literally describing Bolsonaro's government, not Lula's.

It was Bolsonaro, not Lula, who replaced his health minister 3 times during the pandemic because they literally tried to do the right thing while Bolsonaro was pushing in favor of Chloroquine as a treatment and casting a shadow of suspicion over the vaccines.
