Brazil is showing the US how to handle an attempted coup by right wing seditionists.
“In my house there was a pile of documents to be discarded, where most likely the material described in the article was found,” he added. “Everything would be taken to be shredded at the Ministry of Justice in due course.”

so a coup attempt and a coverup? >

Sorry I got caught >

The Deep Fried State put it there! >

What’s the matter Colonel Sanderz….. chicken? >

Are we taking bets on who knows this quote? >

That would be a really bad option to bet against >

Bolsonaro imitated Trump to the point of plotting coup.  He should be sent back to Brazil to face trial for trying to overturn election result. >

It seems like in Brazil the law actually gets enforced. But we will see if it applies to the elite too >

and it means nothing, Lula did time for being caught in corruption and now hes president again >

By all accords he was set up. I’m not saying he’s perfect, but the timing of the “investigation” and his arrest could not have been more suspect. >

The judge (Sergio Moro) and the persecution lawyer (Deltan Dellagnol) were friends and keep touch during the process. Basically the judge was counseling the lawyer on how to proceed to get Lula arrested.
Deltan also made a PowerPoint presentation saying that everything points to Lula. He said he had no proof to back his claims but he was "100% sure" that Lula was a criminal.
And also worth mention that Sergio Moro arrested Lula preventing him from take part on 2018 elections and then he became Bolsonaro's minister of justice.
The supreme court decided that Moro was partial in the case and released Lula. Today Sergio Moro is a senator and Deltan is a congressman, both elected in a "anti-lula" platform and both are in danger to lose their jobs because looks like they are corrupt. Apparently Moro used illegal money in his political campaign and Deltan faked some papers when he was lawyer to receive more money from the government when he was trying to persecute Lula. >

Yes. The journal "Intercept" had access to their conversations and released to the public. The journal investigation is called "Vaza-jato". I think Intercept posted in English too because one of the principal journalist involved is American, Glenn Greenwald >

Get his crooked ass the fuck outta here ! >

Take Miller and Bannon as co-conspirators while they're at it. >

Now that you mention it, I think the Brazilians might be more likely to make that case than the US. Especially since they're foreigners, they'd get no favoritism from most jurors or judges (unless they were coup fans).
Heck, the people we did convict for 2016 ended up being pardoned by their co-conspirator (which in hindsight was a huge loophole in the founding of this country, lol). >

Is Bannon in the US right now? If so I don’t see him being extradited to Brazil.
That’ll open up a huge can of worms the US definitely don’t want opened.
So many war criminals to extradite. >

It is a travesty that we did not go after the traitors like Brazil is. >

Fatty mcOrangeface committed a coup over 2 years ago now, sold nuclear secrets to the saudis, raped a little girl at epsteins island, sold out our foreign policy to the highest bidder, and hes STILL walking free pretending to be president and peddling his lies and corruption.  If anyone in history needed to be in solitary for the rest of his life, its him. >

America won’t do it though. Corporations have made America their bitch, and perverted the office of POTUS.
Worst part is; conservatives think this is ‘fake news’ or whatever. But ironically, the idiots who elected Trump wanted to ‘drain the swamp’ and get rid of corrupt & greedy despots… by electing a corrupt & greedy despot. >

If you have Nebula (.app) streaming service there is a good episode (ep.1) of the "The New F-Word" show that lays out some arguments for why that is.
The gist of it is that in prior fascist uprisings it normally grew out of an economic event that affected the middle/lower classes causing them to start to turn towards more labor unionizing. 
The ones with the most to lose by labor becoming strong subvert the movement by getting the people to back their strongman (targeted messaging) without realizing he's the complete opposite of what they want. Essentially, Fascism is extreme capitalism. The anti-immigration and racist undertones of these movements are used to galvanize the citizens against a common enemy (nationalism) so that they're distracted by what is going on. >

Uh oh. Sounds like Mr. B is going to have another tummy ache. >

Oh no I despise that nickname for him. That’s what my students call me. >

Looks like someone’s going to prison. >

The Supreme Court already decided to arrest the guy (Bolsonaro's former minister) but he's hiding in a McMansion in Florida >

Brazillian MAGA. Almost as if all these fascist fucks think the same. >

I'm  the case of Brazil, it's actually the SAME fascists from the US advising and pulling strings to make this happen.  There's a lot more than just TFG's circle of criminals >

Some further reading on this topic -
How Trump's allies stoked Brazil Congress attack >

That's so much worse.  I saw this stuff on PBS newshour back before the Brazilian election in the fall. >

Wow, these fascists are pulling this shit everywhere. >

No wonder Bolsonaro is hiding in Florida where Fascists are welcome it seems. >

thank the gods those ppl are dumb as fuck. like the terrorists in Brasilia, he produced evidences against himself, saying that he indeed had the doc and didn't destroy it when he destroyed other docs 
btw, this guy was the responsible for Brasilia's security when the terrorists invaded it. and he's also in the USA, where he met bozollini while their supporters trashed the "3 powers" (congress, executive and supreme court).
he is also a Florida Man, of course. Florida is to where all far right extremists of south America likes to go and meet. >

This is why I didn't think that Glass Onion plot point was that implausible. >

This is so dumb. "Oh, let me go to Florida and leave a coup draft at home on a sheet of paper on my way out." >

It was "leaked out of context" he says. I'd love to hear the context that makes this coup ok. >

Right? 3 pages of legalese describing a coup in minute detail... What context is missing exactly? >

Exactly LoL. 
(Happy day of cake.) >

Ooops, Bolsie !! >

Republicans, what’s the problem? 🤷🏼‍♂️ >

Nothing, they'll probably nominate him for something here among their ranks. They know "talent" when they see it. Maybe they'll flip the script and demand proof he was in actually born Brazilian and not American, the libs will never see it coming. >

Send him home >

Imagine being even dumber than Donald Trump, yet still run a G20 country.
It truly boggles the mind... >

The rabbit hole goes deeper >

They really just took the blue print from Cheeto Mussolini didn't they >

Really, it turns out that democracy is optional. And if you don't like the result, you can ignore it and override. Strong leaders do it all the time. >

Gee, Sounds like a TeamTrump effort. >

He went to the US because he knew what would happen and wanted to be away from Brazil and their authorities. >

It only took a few days for the police to start searching the insurrectionist leaders' homes in Brazil.  Meanwhile, in the US, the insurrectionist leaders get to continue living life in peace and luxury, planning their next insurrection at their leisure without fear of prosecution.  Fuck Garland. >

Yeah I'm astonished at the speed at which things are happening in Brazil.  It has me thinking the US has an unwritten agenda to keep wealthy people out of the justice system, lest other wealthy people follow. >

Same advisors as tRump, same playbook. They will keep trying until they turn over a democratic election and then they will use that same formula everywhere they can.
