They're a lot ballsier than American protesters (barring the employed terrorists of Soros INC.) who themselves are a bunch of loser lameists. Really, costumes with garbage can lids as shields for terrorist LARPing?

Should've done it properly on Jan 6th.

Right, to call Jan 6th an "invasion" like they do in that article is the very worst sort of lying.

The Jan 6th protestors were:

- legitimately protesting the massive fraud of the 2020 "election"
- entirely unarmed
- deliberately led into the building by FBI plant Ray Epps
- deliberately allowed into the building on the orders of Pelosi
- were orderly and polite until attacked, except for FBI plant Ray Epps and those working with him

The only person killed was unarmed veteran Ashli Babbit, murdered by a Capitol Hill Police scumbag for no reason. It's all on video.

Reports that the police are shooting with real bullets instead of rubber bullets.

Brazilian patriots spot Antifa or a paid infiltrator and make a civil arrest!

Wonder if it is French Revolutions stuff going on, or the Kommies will do the usual usual of mass murder to impose their rule.

A large number of people went apeshit in Brazil over the weekend in that country’s weird, geographically isolated capital, Brasilia, a horror of 1960s-style Modernist city planning. They stormed the national congress and trashed the offices within to protest the fishy election of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva over the former incumbent Jair Bolsonaro. As in our own country, the quarrel was over the mysterious behavior of voting machines and the unwillingness of election officials or courts to verify the results. The New York Times offered a thumbnail of Mr. Bolsonaro, who is sitting out the current action in Florida:

The resulting picture showed an elected leader, first as a congressman and then as president, who has built a narrative of fraudulent elections based on inaccuracies, out-of-context reports, circumstantial evidence, conspiracy theories and downright falsehoods — much like former President Donald J. Trump.”

Get it? There’s no way fraud could have happened, just like in our country. And Bolsonaro is another Trump. It explains everything. All complaints are “baseless,” “false,” and “conspiracy theories.” End-of-story…. Are these shopworn tropes maybe losing their mojo? And is The New York Times embarrassing itself, a little bit, to trot them out as if they are actually arguments against anything?

If that was just a weekend uprising, then Balsinaro will be hung after the J8 tribunal hearings.
Merick Garland will see to it that he gets extradited.

The fact that they ALLOWED 1500 arrests shows it's just a protest being manipulated by provocateurs to make it look like an overthrow .

Glenn Greenwald

... As most of you likely know, thousands of supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro on Sunday stormed the buildings, composing the three branches of government power: the Congress, the Presidential Palace, and the Supreme Court. There was some substantial damage to the interior of several of those buildings, including artwork and furniture. But there were no reported deaths or grave injuries. Unlike what the U.S. media would have done and did do, nobody invented any fairy tales about protesters bashing in the skulls of police officers with fire extinguishers. One police officer was shown being pulled off his horse and assaulted by the crowd, but no reports suggest his life was in danger.

Once a significant number of police forces arrived, the protesters were dispersed in a relatively short time with little violence. Roughly 1,200 people have been arrested thus far, though it is far from clear how many of them actually used force to enter these buildings, how many engaged in property destruction, or how many were even in the buildings at all as opposed to at the protests.

American media commentators, including some I'd bet would struggle to locate Brazil on a map, transformed into instant experts overnight and decided that this was all the fault of -- you'll never guess -- Donald Trump.

Greenwald lives in Brazil, so if you have a subscription to his Substack, you can probably get a pretty good picture of events from this.

Greenwald lives in Brazil


Lives in Brazil, rags on commentators who live in the US for commenting on Brazil's politics and events. Comments on the US politics and events all the time.

Ironic, no?

He was born and raised here, so he probably understands US politics pretty well too.

BREAKING: The censorship regime in Brazil is growing rapidly, virtually daily now. We just obtained a censorship order that is genuinely shocking, directing multiple social media platforms to immediately remove numerous prominent politicians and commentators.

The shadow of Mordor descends over Brazil.
