@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre The fraud was systemic.
It wasn't just in the electronic voting machines and not just in the counting, but in the ENTIRE PROCESS, from the beginning. Lula was just a part of that system.

🧶 Follow the wire.

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 1. On 03/21/19, a group of federal judges traveled to Curitiba to express support and solidarity with the then imprisoned Lula, participating in the so-called “Lula free vigil”. Have you ever seen such a deal? Judges sensitized with a thief arrested? See the outcome of all this;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 2. To overthrow Bolsonaro, an opponent was needed. That's why they took Lula out of jail, annulled his conviction and gave him back his political rights, making him eligible;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 3. They prevented any and all actions that would guarantee transparency in voting and counting, the much-discussed auditable vote. The highlight of this was the visit of ministers Barroso and Alexandre de Moraes to the federal chamber to pressure the exchange of commission...

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre presidents, which was decisive for the project not to pass. On that day, that sad passage was recorded with the eternalized speech “election is not won, it is taken”;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 4. They expanded the power of the TSE (Electoral Court), concentrating authority in the hands of just one man: Alexandre de Moraes. Carmen Lúcia (also a Supreme Court Judge) made history in a recent vote when she recognized the unconstitutionality of censorship, ...

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre ... but washed her hands. Nor did she have the strength to go against the System;

5. We still don't know how, but the System silenced/gag ministers Nunes Marques and André Mendonça (other more neutral oriented Supreme Court Judges);

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 6. Alexandre de Moraes ensured that the electoral propaganda on radio (essentially important in the Northeast) was rigged for the benefit of Lula, in at least 154 thousand insertions less for Bolsonaro;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 7. Globo, Estadão, Folha and UOL set up and led a media pool favorable to Lula, guaranteeing 24 hours a day of propaganda and lies against Bolsonaro;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 8. A. de Moraes led a wide surveillance network against good information, carrying out prior censorship of communication vehicles, decreeing official arrests, demonetizing channels and persecuting Bolsonaro activists and supporters. Jovem Pan lived through days of censorship;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 9. The Electoral Justice in the federal states entered into systemic fraud, monitoring even voluntary militancy, ordering the removal of posters, billboards, car stickers, even the Brazilian flag had its use curtailed;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 10. While Bolsonaro's campaign was curtailed from all sides, Lula went free, doing everything Bolsonaro could not do, including demonstrations with armed drug traffickers in RJ;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 11. Alexandre de Moraes became a political activist at the service of the PT, responding to any and all requests from the PT campaign.

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 12. Bolsonaro and his media were even forbidden to speak the truth as Lula was convicted, Lula was not acquitted, Lula has links with criminal factions and that Lula was the head of a criminal organization;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 13. The Military Police was prevented from carrying out operations against drug traffickers, the PRF was prevented from inspecting exits and vote buying, the Federal Police was prevented from investigating fraudulent polls;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 14. Research institutes manipulated numbers at will, with broad and powerful support from the mainstream media, which certainly had a great impact on voting, especially in the first round;

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre 15. Social networks were watched, channels were demonetized, accounts were blocked and influencers were silenced;

16. The Federal Chamber and Senate kept silent in the face of all the judicial failures practiced by the TSE.

@MatthewTyrmand @alexandre CONCLUSION: Neither Jair nor anyone else would be able to win such an election.

THE FRAUD WAS SYSTEMIC! THIS ELECTION WAS ILLEGITIMATE
