    When Brazil sends its people, they are not sending their best?

    Funded by agribusiness that has been raping the amazon with impunity?



    Brazilian Investigators Hone In on People Suspected of Riot Financing



    Brazil’s Justice Minister Flávio Dino said Monday that it was indisputable that people linked to agribusiness took part in Sunday’s acts, but warned against accusing the entire sector of involvement.



    The growing investigation comes two days after thousands of supporters of the country’s conservative former president, Jair Bolsonaro, stormed the presidential palace, Congress and the Supreme Court in what President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva described Monday as an attempted coup.

    Too bad there isn't a similar vehicle in the US barring a certain presidential candidate/former president who tried to pull a similar stunt in the US from running for election.

    You may have just taken over this thread in a coup. (Just kidding. I agree with what you're saying.)

    I used to kind of believe in reincarnation. But till now I've never heard of the possible reincarnation (Bolsonaro) of a person (Trump) who is still alive. Could they instead be twins who were separated at birth? Actually I know what Trump is (there's a three-letter acronym), but I only know about Bolsonaro from afar, which is as close as I want to get. The guy apparently views the Amazon kind of like Trump's buddy Putin views Ukraine. It shouldn't exist.
