President Jair Bolsonaro left the Alvorada Palace in Brasilia on Saturday (9) and rode a water bike on Lake Paranoá. Bolsonaro flew accompanied by a security guard, both without a mask, an obligatory element in the public areas of the Federal District.
At least 12 supporters flocked to the dock of a marina near the official residence on the lake shore. The images taken at the scene show that the President greeted and took photos with these people.
In a video, Bolsonaro “supports” the boat in a speedboat and greets the occupants who, without a mask, barbecued on the boat. The president tells the group that “if we don’t deal with it, Brazil will become chaos.”
One of the ship’s occupants claims to be from the aviation sector and complains about the economic impact of the new coronavirus pandemic. Bolsonaro agrees and talks of “neurosis” before the recording stops.

In the conversation, the group refers to the barbecue announced by Jair Bolsonaro in recent days and scheduled for this Saturday at the Palácio da Alvorada. They offer the president a piece of meat, which he rejects.
In the morning, Bolsonaro said the news about the barbecue was “false,” that is, false, and called the journalists who criticized him for the event as “idiots.” The event announced by the president in previous interviews would take place on the same day that Brazil reached 10,000 killed by Covid-19.
“Some idiotic journalists criticized the FALSE barbecue, but the MBL has surpassed itself, it has entered ACTION IN JUSTICE,” he said, referring to a lawsuit filed by the Movimento Brasil Livre (MBL).
On Thursday (7), Bolsonaro told journalists, in front of Alvorada, that this Saturday he would have a barbecue that would have “about 30” guests, including the Minister of the Comptroller General of the Union, Wagner Rosário. According to the president, a “kitten” was being made to pay the costs of the party.
“I invited the boy from the CGU [Wagner Rosário]I’m committing a crime, I’m going to have a barbecue on Saturday here at home and I invited Wagner, the minister of the CGU, to bring his 13-year-old son, I told him not to look at Laura or the animal will catch him, he’s alright right? And we are going to have a conversation here, who knows how to do a little peladinha with some ministers, some more humble servants are by my side, okay? Bolsonaro said Thursday.
“There must be around 30 there [convidados]. In fact, there will be a kitten, 70 reais, there will be no alcoholic beverages, if it’s not the first lady, then put everything to go, okay? “Added the president.
Bolsonaro began to come under fire for the announcement, at a time when health officials recommended social isolation as a measure to contain the coronavirus.
On Friday (8), in front of the supporters in front of the Alvorada Palace, the president mocked the news. “Barbecue, I’m only inviting the press. You already have 180 guests. You already have 180 guests,” Bolsonaro said, ironically.
The presence of President Jair Bolsonaro in a public area, without a mask on his face, contradicts the rules of the Federal District government for social distance.
