Bolsonaro Coup Conviction

Brazil's Supreme Court panel voted yesterday to convict former President Bolsonaro of plotting a military coup to stay in office following his electoral loss (we know a little about this). He was sentenced to 27 years and three months in prison.

Looks like tariffs on Brazilian goods are going from 50% to 100%.

    That's what should have happened to Trump for Jan 6th and classified docs.
  • Impeached twice. Repugnants on the Hill proved to be spineless. Brought to court, and some hand-picked judges slow-walked the process. Cannon, in particular. Garland should have been quicker to move, too.
  • Awesome that we are now paying through tariffs for Trump's attempt to control the politics and judicial system in South America. Trying to pardon his like-minded cronies.

    All that will come of this is more and more nations disentangling from the U.S. and linking arms with our adversaries. Slowly, but surely, other nations will move to limit the influence of the U.S.A. on their economies and people.

    The cheese stands alone!

    Correct, as Trump once said, "You know what they do with traitors".

    Cannon, both "hand-picked" and lightweight. Overturned at every juncture by her own conservative-leaning Florida appeals system,
