60. Far more dangerous
Em Itália, sede da Igreja Católica, onde a a Revolução Trumpiana foi buscar inspiração, já se sentem os seus ecos:
"Meloni's rightist government has cried foul, accusing the powerful judges of playing politics, and has said it will not back down, drawing comfort from opinion polls that show many voters support its uncompromising stance.
"Basically, they want to govern themselves. But there's a problem. If I make a mistake, the Italians can vote me out of office. If they make a mistake, no one can say or do anything. No power in a democratic state works like that," Meloni told a TV channel owned by the Berlusconi family in late January.
"Italy's justice system is one of the most dysfunctional in Europe, where, despite recent improvements, it still takes four times the European average to reach a final ruling in civil cases and 3.5 times the average to secure a definitive verdict in criminal trials, according to 2022 data". (...)
"A court in January blocked for the third time a government initiative to detain migrants in camps in Albania, frustrating Meloni's plans to deter people from seeking refuge in Italy and leaving the project in legal limbo.
"That same week, a prosecutor stunned Meloni by placing her and three cabinet colleagues under investigation following a government decision to release a Libyan police chief wanted by the International Criminal Court (...).
"Supreme Court prosecutor Marco Patarnello wrote to colleagues last October warning them that Meloni was a "far more dangerous" adversary than Berlusconi because she was not mired in legal investigations and was acting out of "political vision".
"The message, which was leaked to the media and confirmed by Patarnello, acknowledged that public opinion was no longer behind the magistrates, unlike in the 1990s".
