Hey he worked pretty hard - well not that much - to earn the prize, since the Army booted him for planning terrorism he spent the next 30 years doing nothing but being all forms of racist and money laundering public money for himself and teaching his sons to do the same.

The Drug Cartel "Israel Complex" - a group formed only by drug dealers of protestant denomination - formed an alliance with a paramilitary group, now they control 5 favelas in the northern zone of Rio.

Drug dealers of Protestant denomination. There's a sentence I'd never thought I'd read.

Besides the protestant denomination they only thing they are doing is forbidding the practice of Candomblé and Umbanda.
"Claim" to be of protestant denomination in Brazil has become an umbrella shield to call oneself "morally righteous". Just see the case of Robinho, that after having the repercussion of his rape sentence in Italy and losing the contract to return to Santos, started to posting religious things on instagram. -

In more or less sane news, the vaccine he was fervently against (Coronavac) will be one of those used in the national immunization plan, on wackier side he made his vaccination card confidential for 100 years - read it as he will get the vaccine but still preach his followers to not take and don't want them to know.And oh, the IURD owned TV Station exhibited a gossip news accusing Beyonce of witchcraft and dark magic and using footage of the Homecoming movie. Because nothing can be more satanic to the IURD than africanism and african religions.

No so much, our Suprem Court has been doing a fine job curbing his megalomaniac tendencies and his stupidity.

I gotta respect him for that, for pulling of blatant human rights violations right in front of our eyes and still remaining in his position of militaristic power trips. It's like I'm losing my mind in a weird ass bizarro zone with people like him in power in more and more countries.

The 25% that are still rabid fans of him are satisfied, the other part worried.
Because amongst the policies he wants to pass are: home schooling, deregulation of native territories for prospection of minerals, lax gun control and importation (more pistols and revolvers have been legally imported in his first 2 years (170K) than in the previous 16 years (104k) - when we already have 60K gun related deaths per year geez - here a full list of them run on goolge translator:[hide]
Resumption of investments: tax reform; administrative reform; privatization of Eletrobras; expansion of the scope of debentures; legal framework of the foreign exchange market; change in the oil and gas sharing regime; modernization of the electric sector; new regulatory framework for the railway sector; approval of the Budget Guidelines Law.Fiscal agenda: Emergency PEC, PEC of funds, PEC of the Federative Pact, use of public funds for the pandemic.
Tariff of customs: Registration, possession and sale of firearms; guarantee to military personnel in Law and Order Guarantee operations; increased penalty for child abuse; turning pedophilia into a heinous crime; permission to learn outside schools (Homeschooling); amendment of the Indian Statute to prohibit infanticide.Land tenure: liberation of mining on indigenous lands; forestry concessions; new milestone for environmental licensing; land tenure regularization in the Amazon.Transportation: Project that creates a single document for cargo transportation; toll exemption for residents of municipalities that live in a collection area.[/hide]The majority of policies are the aborted baby of Regan and Tatcher.

I recall it being made known to me that taking drastic measures such as destroying government buildings is justifiable if it’s being done for an actual good cause of destroying the racist-based systems implanted by the government in places like police stations, unlike the government destruction that happened on January 6 since that wasn’t done for a good cause. But even with that said, I still think there’s a limit to how quickly one should jump at destruction towards the government, even on the grounds of destroying the racist-based structures they’ve helped put in place.

At least we're not bombing schools, we're just letting the poor die by Covid, hunger, unemployment, criminality. But hey, Canada has 9 vaccines for each inhabitant, while Bozo wants we to have six guns for each inhabitant.

Our idiot in chief read a suicide letter today in his weekly live as a defense against the lockdown.
Meanwhile the youngest soon posted on twitter the photo of the corpse of said suicide, after complaining earlier this week about how he follow mask regulations in this "official vacation" to Israel and not complying with it here he said to shove the mask up yours.
His eldest son bought a mansion of R$6M while his declared net worth is RS1,7M. Half was done with a loan that has a due more than he and his wife earn monthly combined. First it was declared that the whole deal was already paid, after the media sniffing it they probably coerced the former owner of the mansion to to say there's still a debt.
Meanwhile the pathetic financial support for the poor and informal workers was cut short from R$ 600,00 (107USD) to R$ 250,00 (44,7USD). -

According to the most recent poll, yes Lula would win in a run off.
The question is if his complicate juridical situation will be solved and if he's willing to run.
I particularly never liked the populist vein of PT, but just like the last election I vote on them, in this between a corrupt and a genocidal corrupt is a no brainier.Also an important point is how FIOCRUZ starting to produce 20-25M Oxford/AstraZaneca vaccines a month can help Bozo's situation, and how he can spin it to the 14% of the population that still believe his word like Lords' one. And how the much lobby the brazilian protestant megachurches are gonna lobby for him.

Because just like Trump - whom he followed the footsteps - the great part of his support is from the ignorant mid and lower middle class. The ones that are not concerned with the privilege of the wealthy but dread that given rights to the poorer would close the gap between them. You know, good conservative christian folk.

I was under the impression that Lula's corruption accusation was bogus cooked up by the right-wing elites to make him ineligible to run for office. Or at the very least, that he's no more corrupt than anyone else, as much as he needed to be to have any political chance.

He was not personally related to the money laundering involving Petrobras and Odebrecht. His investigation was on the ownership of proprieties above the declared income, influence peddling and embezzlement. But there was an effort from both Judge Moro, and prosecutor Dallagnol did cook it up to have him arrest and incapable to run for office. As evidence, besides the Telegram leaked texts between the two there was leaked by The Intercept, was the Moro was awarded by Bozo the Ministry of Justice.
Now the supreme court is trying to cut a mea culpa to avoid all the investigations going kaput.HIM, personally might not be more corrupt than any other politician that can and has chances to run for president. But under the 16 years of PT leadership we had 2 humongous corruption scandals. So the media, specially the kingmakes, Globo jumped over it like vultures on a corpse.

In a senate hearing to try to make the insane alt-right Minster of Foreign Affairs, the presidential aide on the subject made a white supremacist sign when the Senate president started to speak.
