This article aims to discuss the fake news produced, disseminated and boosted within the bolsonarista government. It is not about pointing out the bolsonarista government as the creator of this fake news, but to ascertain how this type of news has often occurred in this period. The article is divided into two parts: at first, we will identify what kind of fake news is verified trying to categorize this fake news propagated within the bolsonarist a government according to scholars and researchers in the field. The second part is dedicated to the analysis of the fakes news themselves identifying the targets of these news talks and their repercussions. The methodology and research techniques focused on: a) Identify "fake news" and its authors, through categories predefined by other scholars that can assist in the identification of "fake news" disseminated "within the government", from then on we work with the definition previously conceptualized by researchers in the area; b) The instruments used for the collection of data and information that served to carry out the research were extracted from journalistic articles of traditional communication vehicles, both, as well as from research conducted by institutions of excellence such as Reuters Institute Digital News Report and DataSenado institute of research of the Brazilian National Congress. And finally, the results found present themselves as a complex relationship between government and segments of society that promoted fake news produced by supporters, parliamentarians and members of the Bolsonaro government published on their social networks and confirmed their falsehood by fact-checking agencies with the Lupa Agency followed by rigorous political analysis.
