Tarcísio announces six secretaries for 2027 and guarantees total renewal with five from the previous government
The team includes one brand-new name, whom the Palace describes as "the oxygen quota" and who has already asked to be called the ex-future.
The governor of São Paulo presented six secretaries for 2027 this week and described the team as "renewal with experience". Five of the six already had a security pass in the previous federal government. The sixth is going through an adjustment period.
According to an aide who asked not to be identified, the renewal was calculated with rigour. "We changed the office, the parking space and the business card. Anything more would have been a waste of public money."
The press outlets disagree on the number of appointees: three, five or six, depending on the paper. The government explains that the difference depends on when you start counting and on who is picking up the bill.
An economist who has already given up following the subject calculated that, at this rate, the 2030 cabinet will consist entirely of people who already held the post in 2018. The efficiency gain, he said, will be enormous: nobody will need an introduction.
The Assembly's pigeon, consulted by email, observed that the word "new" remains in force, but now only in the sense of "freshly printed in the Official Gazette".
Total renewal: five of the six already knew where the toilets were.
