Is the world waking up from the nightmare of Globalist wokeism and preparing to emerge blinking into the sunlight of a new dawn of centre-right commonsense?
Former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro wants to capitalise on the global wave of centre-right energy unleashed by the Trump victory.
To do so, though, Bolsonaro must overcome even bigger obstacles thrown in his way by the left than Trump himself.
Jair Bolsonaro, former president of Brazil, wants to return to power and said he believes US President-elect Donald Trump will help make that happen, possibly by using economic sanctions against the current president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
Banned from running for office until 2030 and facing criminal charges for allegedly plotting a coup, Bolsonaro said he sees Trump’s election as a game-changer for his future and politicians on the right in Latin America. Leftists have recently won presidential elections in Mexico and Uruguay and govern most large countries in the region.
And centre-right Javier Milei won bigly in Argentina, and is transforming the formerly bankrupt state. In Venezuela, meanwhile, the leftist Maduro regime only clung to power by brutally rigging the vote.
As for da Silva, Brazil’s deep state literally changed the law to allow the jailed corrupt former leader to run again.
Da Silva’s leftist government, which considers Bolsonaro an authoritarian figure, declined to comment on the former president’s assertions. A spokesperson for Trump’s incoming administration didn’t respond to a request for comment.
The left calling anyone ‘authoritarian’ is the blackest of kettles casting aspersions at the pot.
Bolsonaro, who was president of the world’s fourth-most populous democracy from 2019 through 2022, has been one of Trump’s closest foreign allies. Sharing similar views on the culture wars and scorn for the political left and the media, the two men deepened ties when their presidencies overlapped in 2019 and 2020. The two presented a united front against Venezuela’s authoritarian leader, Nicolás Maduro.
No wonder the globalists were so desperate to oust him. In a precursor to the violence of the 2024 US election, leftists very nearly succeeded in assassinating Bolsonaro during the 2018 election campaign. The former president still bears the scars.
Still wildly popular with swaths of Brazil’s social conservatives, as well as parts of the business community, Bolsonaro would narrowly win an election against da Silva if the vote was carried out today, according to a survey this week by Brazil’s Paraná Pesquisas polling institute. Bolsonaro would get 37.6% of the vote, while the leftist would receive 33.6%, it found.
Like the Democrats in the US, the Brazilian regime is throwing everything against an upstart conservative.
After police seized Bolsonaro’s passport earlier this year, his son Eduardo, a friend of former Trump aide Steve Bannon, acted as a go-between, Bolsonaro said, joining Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort for the U.S. presidential election […]
Brazilian police last week accused Bolsonaro and 36 of his allies of plotting a coup to stop da Silva from taking office after Bolsonaro narrowly lost the 2022 election. The allegations include plans to assassinate the leftist leader. The charges stem from a Jan. 8, 2023, uprising in which several thousand Bolsonaro supporters stormed the presidential palace, Congress and the Supreme Court in Brasília before police fended them off.
Brazil’s electoral court also has effectively banned him from running in the next presidential election in 2026. The court ruled last year that he had undermined confidence in the country’s electoral system by accusing da Silva of stealing the 2022 election, without presenting sufficient evidence
They’re reading off the same script as the Democrats and their media lickspittles in the US, with about as much credibility. Bolsonaro is well aware that the left-establishment is trying to get the fix in.
Bolsonaro denies any wrongdoing, saying he is the victim of a witch hunt by da Silva and left-leaning judges.
“They don’t just want me in jail, they want me dead,” said Bolsonaro […]
Brazil’s right has also lobbied Trump to withdraw the U.S. visa of Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who has led sweeping criminal investigations into Bolsonaro and his allies.
Again, the Brazilian left are following the same script as in the US.
Empowered by a lengthy constitution that gives Brazilian Supreme Court justices the option to act as prosecutor, judge and jury, de Moraes has cracked down on Bolsonaro supporters after the Jan. 8, 2023, attacks in the capital. He has ordered the arrest of more than a thousand people since then, citing the safeguarding of democracy.
Which is exactly what the Biden Democrats said. These people are as robotic as old-school Soviet commissars.
“It’s time for MAAGA – Make All Americas Great Again,” said Bolsonaro, proudly displaying a book published last year that Trump gave him with the inscription “Jair – You are GREAT.”
