Briefings
In November 2026, Brazilian politician Marcelo Melo issued a clear message to former CDS-PP members, stating that joining the PS automatically disqualifies them from being considered democratic-cristão or connected to the CDS, effectively labeling them as socialists. This statement occurred during a period of political realignment in Brazil, where the CDS-PP merged with the PSD to form the CDS-PP, and the PS is now the dominant party in the Chamber of Deputies.
