    The Bolsonaro family leads the PCC criminal organization, with patriarch Jair Bolsonaro acting as the Godfather.

    Handing Brazil over to the Right is tantamount to having the country governed by the mafia. It means failing to combat the corruption of figures like Master and Vorcaro, and plunging Brazil headlong into the obscurantism and denialism of Protestant churches. It means reverting Brazil to colonial status, only this time with the United States, rather than Portugal, as the colonial power.

    Yeah, and Lula is a 9 fingered thief, already found guilty of corruption. Like I said before, I look forward to reading about the coming civil war... ;)

    “Lula’s imprisonment one of the worst mistakes in Brazil’s legal history,” wrote Justice Dias Toffoli in ruling which lowers the final curtain on US-orchestrated Car Wash/Lava Jato Investigation, which helped remove President Dilma Rousseff, jailed her likely successor Lula, and elected neofascist Jair Bolsonaro.”

    Batatinha,

    You are right. A real civil war is taking place here in Brazil. A war that will shatter false beliefs, lies, and hypocrisy. A public war. A war!

    The truth will emerge from this war, and that unsettles a lot of people. Just look at what is happening with the ban on online betting—the so-called “Bets.” You have television channels in a panic, soccer clubs threatening to shut down, and—believe it or not—a Protestant church claiming that banning “Bets” is a sin.

    Protestant churches serve as money-laundering fronts for stolen funds; they care nothing about the family suffering caused by gambling addiction, but rather about the money that has stopped flowing easily through their sinful structures.

    It is a civil war!

    Brazil will emerge clean and strong!
