The press release from my lawyers Francisco Teixeira da Mota, Luisa Teixeira da Mota, William Bourdon and Vincent Brengarth regarding the outrageous actions taken against me by the Portuguese State on Wednesday:

PRESS RELEASE

Lisbon and Paris, October 2, 2026

End of Rui Pinto’s protection: his lawyers call on Portuguese authorities to reconsider a decision with dire consequences

Rui Pinto, the whistleblower behind "Football Leaks," has been notified on Wednesday that the special security program he has benefited from since August 2020 will end on October 10. In a few days, without being heard beforehand, as required by law, he would lose the protected, confidential residence assigned to him and l be forced to find new housing urgently, with no guarantee that police protection will continue.

His situation is now critical. The threats against him are not merely theoretical; he was assaulted in Lisbon last April. His revelations implicated powerful figures with vast resources, and many resulting legal proceedings are still ongoing, as evidenced by the decision handed down just days ago by the Premier League’s independent commission regarding Manchester City. Abruptly deprived of his protected housing and plunged into a state of extreme precariousness, Rui Pinto would be more vulnerable now than at any time since 2020.

Rui Pinto has cooperated with the Portuguese justice system, and it was this cooperation that justified placing him under protection. His revelations, utilized by numerous judicial, tax, and sports authorities across Europe, starting with France, have advanced transparency and integrity in football. The states that have benefited from his actions cannot simply turn their backs on the person who took the risk to bring them to light.

In accordance with the law, an administrative appeal with suspensive effect will be filed against this decision. Rui Pinto’s lawyers, confident that the Portuguese authorities would give due consideration to his situation, asked, last Wednesday, the ministry of Justice to reconsider this decision, to disclose the details of the risk reassessment upon which it is based, to ensure that their client is heard, and to guarantee, in any event, the continuity of his protection. No answer was received till now.

This decision and the way it was made, regrettably, doesn’t respect the rule of law and constitutes an act of state terrorism. We can’t accept that.

Exclusive: German authorities are planning to introduce warrantless mass surveillance of new media online. The proposed legislation would authorize German authorities to use AI to automatically monitor platforms such as X, YouTube, and Instagram and to impose sanctions for alleged violations of journalistic due diligence. The surveillance is intended to be “preventive”; to facilitate it, the platforms have to provide technical interfaces through which the authorities can access the data.

PSG revenue:

2010/11 — €99.5m (before the Qatar takeover)
2011/12 — €220.5m
2012/13 — €398.8m

Amazing commercial work by the guys from Qatar there.

300% increase in two years.

🚨 Section 219 is on the brink of passing the Senate. It would permanently merge US & Israeli weapons programs, with no way for a future Congress to undo it.

Only 6 Senators are fighting it with 30 days left. Demand yours block it now! Link in replies.

Benjamin Netanyahu sent a warning letter ahead of a libel suit against Haaretz and journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruth Yuval over a report he received a warning from UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed about a major Hamas operation before the October 7 attack.

Haaretz stands by its reporting.

Devastating revelation.
Netanyahu must be held accountable by the Israeli people for this appalling negligence.

[AIPAC Tracker @TrackAIPAC]

Haaretz reports Netanyahu received an explicit warning 10 days before Oct. 7. He didn't brief Israel's security chiefs.

Merz setzt nach dem fulminanten Sieg der AfD nun vollends auf die autoritäre Einschüchterung seiner politischen Gegner. Von allen Schwertern, die die Bundesregierung gegen eine AfD-Regierung in Sachsen-Anhalt einsetzen könnte, wäre der Bundeszwang eines der schärfsten. Er ermöglicht es der Bundesregierung, in die Souveränität eines Bundeslandes einzugreifen. Und genau dieses Szenario bereitet der Kanzler nun rhetorisch vor: In der heutigen Pressekonferenz beschwor er ausgerechnet beim Thema Migration die sogenannte „Bundestreue“ (Art. 28 Abs. 3 im Grundgesetz). Wird gegen das Prinzip der Bundestreue verstoßen, so könnte der Bundeszwang zum Einsatz kommen. Über die Einwanderungs- und Ausländerpolitik sagt Merz: „In den Grundzügen wird diese in Berlin entschieden und nicht in Magdeburg.“ Bedeutet: Merz droht einer potenziellen AfD-Regierung mit dem Bundeszwang, sollte sie einen härteren Kurs in der Migration fahren.

I predicted they’d call off Congress until the election to stop our new Epstein bill.

Johnson said on TV that was “stupid” and “nonsensical.”

But then he got a call from “upstairs” and canceled Congress from the middle of September until the election.
