Today in Brazil:
While threatening to imprison me - a power he doesn't have - Bolsonaro also claimed I married @davidmirandario & adopted 2 children as a manipulative tactic to avoid deportation. Apparently I can predict the future, since I married David 14 years ago when I was still a lawyer.
@dangillmor @davidmirandario Fun day in Brazil exchanging comments on the front page of @Folha with the wanna-be dictator of Brazil over whether I should be arrested for reporting on the corruption at the highest levels of his government:

Brazil's President, apparently with few national problems to address and little to do, gave an interview this morning again attacking me and suggesting I was guilty of crimes. I don't think he understands (a) the Constitution or (b) that he's not a judge or dictator:
To Bolsonaro's credit, at least he managed this time to threaten me with prison without twisted and deranged homophobic mockery of my marriage and adopted children.
Se alguém puder mostrar ao presidente @jairbolsonaro o que a Constituição brasileira garante, acho que seria útil. Eu destaquei as partes mais importantes para ele.

NOVO #VazaJato hj é grave mesmo: "​​Considerações políticas influenciaram a decisão do então juiz Sergio Moro de divulgar parte da delação do ex-ministro Antonio Palocci a seis dias do primeiro turno da eleição...
O @BlogdoNoblat descreve a revelação de hj sobre Moro como "o mais grave", e eu entendo o pq. Mas é o que fizeram durante anos: abusaram de seu poder legal para fins judiciais em violações de toda a ética e leis. Isso - até agora - é o que é #VazaJato.
@BlogdoNoblat Lembre-se que uma das primeiras reportagens que publicamos em 9 de junho mostrou-as explicitamente conspirando para fazer o que eles sempre negaram: abusar de seu poder judicial para impedir que o PT ganhe as eleições: seu verdadeiro objetivo: theintercept.com/2019/06/09/pro… #Palocci

Ao contrário dos desejos de Bolsonaro, ele não é (ainda) um ditador. Ele não tem o poder de ordenar pessoas presas. Ainda existem tribunais em funcionamento. Para prender alguém, tem que apresentar provas para um tribunal que eles cometeram um crime. Essa evidência não existe.
Bolsonaro - sendo ele - tb implicou que eu me casei com @davidmirandario e adotei 2 filhos para evitar a lei de deportação. Ele evidentemente acha que eu tenho o poder de prever o futuro: David e eu nos casamos há 14 anos quando eu era advogada, antes de me tornar jornalista.
@davidmirandario A teoria dele é insana: casei com David 14 anos atrás pq eu previa que precisaria disso no futuro. E sugerir que alguém adotaria - e cuidar de - 2 filhos para manipular a lei é nojenta. O Brasil tem 47.000 crianças em abrigos. A adoção é linda e deve ser encorajada, não zombado.

Thread: Harold Finch Comments on Today’s Mueller Farce

1. Harold Finch maintains a social media presence on Telegram and manages “The Library” there, which compiles important breaking news on a daily/hourly basis.
2. From time to time, he also posts threads there. Here is one of them – a timely assessment of the kabuki that is the Mueller testimony (or lack thereof), as well as the Democrats’ likely motivations for this hearing:

3. It’s all about #dirtycop #mueller and the House Democrats headlong plunge toward impeachment of @POTUS, regardless of public opinion polls opposing that.

#Brazil 1/1 Human Rights Watch: President Jair Bolsonaro of Brazil has reinstated commemorations of the 1964 coup that inaugurated two decades of military dictatorship marked by widespread torture and killings, Human Rights Watch said today.
2/2 “Bolsonaro rightly criticizes the Cuban and Venezuelan governments for violating their people´s basic rights,” said José Miguel Vivanco, Americas director at Human Rights Watch.
3/3 “But at the same time, he celebrates a military dictatorship in Brazil that caused untold suffering to tens of thousands of Brazilians. It is hard to imagine a clearer example of a double standard.”
