Bolsonaro, Under Fire, Dismisses His Culture Minister For Giving a Nazi Speech, But It Is Still Representative of Brazil’s Governing Ethos theintercept.com/2020/01/18/bol…
The literally Nazi 6-minute speech from Bolsonaro's now-fired Culture Minister has to be seen to be believed. It can't be described in words. Everything about it is Nazi: its aesthetic, posture, photos. So we translated it with English subtitles. WATCH: theintercept.com/2020/01/18/bol…
Just hours after his father's Culture Minister gave an actual Nazi speech that plagiarized Joseph Goebbels, Bolsonaro's Uday-like Congressman-son, @BolsonaroSP, pronounced that Nazism, while bad, wasn't as bad as Communism. "Sure, Nazis were bad, but...."

Sergio Moro é um daqueles narcisistas patológicos que é completamente incapaz de considerar, e muito menos admitir, que cometeu algum erro. É um pouco chocante de assistir.
Essas são boas perguntas até agora.

NOVO #VazaJato: Lava Jato usou site @o_antagonista para interferir na escolha do presidente do Banco do Brasil — e a parceira entre os dois não começou ai theintercept.com/2020/01/20/lav…
@o_antagonista “Procuradores da LJ agiram politicamente – usando o site O Antagonista como porta-voz...A leitura das conversas deixa claro que a LJ e O Antagonista se veem como parceiros. O site abre mão da função primordial do jornalismo...e recebe em troca informações em primeira mão.”
@o_antagonista E antes que os hipócritas da Antagonista se queixem de que publicamos suas conversas impróprias com Deltan e LJ — que não tinham nada a ver com jornalismo — lembre-se de que sempre publicavam conversas vazadas ilegalmente que eu tive com nossa fonte. oantagonista.com/brasil/crusoe-…

Keep up the great work, MSNBC! 👍
Just to review:

In 2018 - less than 2 years ago - Joy Reid fabricated a lie about how a hacker mysteriously wrote her bigoted posts and publicly claimed her lawyer requested an FBI investigation to find him.

Brian Williams fabricated war stories.

Both are MSNBC "news" hosts.
Tonight -- in a program jointly hosted by journalists Brian Williams and Joy Reid -- MSNBC examines the deeply pressing question of why Americans have lost faith in the news media and no longer believe what it says. Stay tuned!

<<Thread>> How the KOCH BROTHERS helped give #Brazil its own DONALD TRUMP. Meet JAIR BOLSONARO, Brazil's Koch-endorsed far-right president. 1/9 cbc.ca/news/politics/…
Like Trump, his core beliefs are very conservative, especially when it comes to gay rights. "If a gay couple came to live in my building, my property will lose value. If they walk around holding hands, kissing, it will lose value!". 2/9
He's racist and misogynistic. 3/9 fastcompany.com/90258155/jair-…

Some label him a “disruptor”. Bolsonaro’s victory marks far worse than disruption, for climate change across the world, for human rights in Brazil & the region, for minorities, for women. He came to power menacing far worse than disruption. Why would we not believe him? #brazil
Brazil’s election of Bolsonaro marks a new phase in a global crisis which can’t be resolved as individual nations. The more the language of the populist fizzes with making that nation great again, the bigger the international crisis emerging. /2
As a nation of over 200 million people, and the largest country in Latin America, a political earthquake ripples far beyond its borders. Take its climate change policies, take its approach to human rights, to democracy itself. This in a region marked by recent brutal history. /3

Pour avoir lu sur #Bolsonaro et scruté #Trump, il me semble que la comparaison de l'1 à l'autre "écrase" les singularités du Brésilien:
1) la revendication d'1 militarisation à venir du régime politique
2) 1 probable élection majoritaire massive au suffrage universel direct.RT+
2) Qu'on le veuille ou non, et sans présumer des évolutions futures, #Trump s'est toujours plié à l'ordre constitutionnel US, et son administration est contrainte d'obéir aux normes de droit public (cf. le Travel Ban retoqué et finalement amendé)...
3)...et ces #midterms2018, comme toutes les élections partielles depuis 2016, se sont déroulées dans des conditions équitables et transparentes pour l'opposition démocrate à #Trump qui a remporté d'ailleurs de nombreuses partielles. #Bolsonaro n'a pas du tout le même projet
