Impact

Ricardo Salles asks the Office of the Comptroller General (CGU) to audit an Ibama car rental contract. The Minister criticized the contract and President Jair Bolsonaro corroborated the unfounded accusation, which was initially made through social networks. Such accusations led to the resignation of the then president of Ibama.
