In this essay, we present the partial results of a research study conducted by the Research Group on Discourse Analysis (Grupo de Pesquisa em Análise de Discurso, or GPADis) at the Discourse Analysis Research Laboratory (Laboratório de Pesquisa em Análise do Discurso, or LAPADis), and which is closely associated with the thematic project Memory, truth effects and justice effects in cases of corruption crime. We have analyzed the functioning of the position-subject of the Evangelical Parliamentary Front (Frente Parlamentar Evangélica, or FPE) of the National Congress, in the impeachment process of former Speaker of the House of Representatives Eduardo Cosentino Cunha. In the analysis, we have mobilized concepts of Discourse Analysis in the and from the field of Memory.
