"The efforts of Lula’s government to combat illegal logging have cut deforestation in the Amazon by half. A raft of vengeful new bills from Brazil’s formidable agribusiness lobby would dismantle this successful crackdown."

"The sheer scale of the agri-lobby’s legal blitzkrieg can be glimpsed in the laws on offer. These include proposals to slash half a million hectares from the Jamanxim ecological reserve in the Amazon; grant the Ministry of Agriculture control over which animals make the endangered species list; strip protections from 40 percent of forested areas in the state of Pará and from non-forested areas of native vegetation across the country; restrict the government’s ability to monitor criminal risks in rural financing; and, most significantly, to neuter Brazil’s environmental monitoring agency, the Brazilian Institute of the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA), by hampering its ability to combat illegal deforestation using satellite imagery."

Bolsonaro, like his most fervent supporters in the landowning class—deeply anticommunist, nostalgic for the dictatorship, and disdainful of the country’s Indigenous population—is given to fetishizing the American frontier. In 1998, Bolsonaro, then a federal lawmaker, told the National Congress: “The Brazilian cavalry was truly incompetent. The American cavalry, however, was competent; they decimated their own indigenous population in the past and today don’t have that problem in their own country.”

When he won the presidency twenty years later, it was on a platform that promised to restrict Indigenous land demarcations. In the days and weeks after his inauguration, land-grabbers committed a wave of invasions of Indigenous communities, some citing false reports that the president had given them permission. During Bolsonaro’s mandate, environmental and Indigenous protection agencies were gutted or defanged, or their leadership staffed with stooges. Deforestation surged, as illegal loggers and wildcat miners plundered Brazil, confident the president had their back.
