Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was convicted for attempting a coup
RIO DE JANEIRO, September 12. /TASS/. Brazil’s Federal Supreme Court has sentenced former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022) to 27 years and 3 months in prison for his role in an attempted coup aimed at preventing the rise to power of current Brazilian leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
The decision to convict Bolsonaro and impose a prison term was made by four Supreme Court justices, while one justice voted in favor of acquitting the politician. By a vote of four to one, Bolsonaro was found guilty.
As noted by the Brazilian newspaper O Globo, Bolsonaro was collectively convicted for "attempting a coup, forming a criminal organization," and violently undermining the rule of law.
The left is doing to him what it couldn’t do to Trump. Banana republic. Brazil is an up and coming country or is it? It always ‘has been’ up and coming but they’ve been their own worst enemy.
What the cabal in this country did was far worse than anything Bolsanaro even thought of doing? Not one of those coup members have been punished??????
Didnt the CIA aide in usurping Bolsanaro and installing a criminal that was jailed for corruption?
Thought I read something about this then silenced.
Yep it is exactly what they tried to do to Trump and anyone who resisted the steal. This is what Fascism really looks like. Steal the election then if the victim tries to do anything about it throw them in jail. Trump need to give him asylum.
Europe - generally - and Spain specifically, refused to allow Bolsonaro entry.
USA Conservatives did absolutely nothing to help Bolsonaro remain in the USA.
Did I forget to mention there was obvious voter fraud in the election Bolsonaro lost?
Send ST-6 Red Squad to go and get Bolsonaro and his family and bring them to the USA.
