Brazil: Bolsonaro supporters storm National Congress

Hundreds of people appear to have overcome security and stormed the National Congress building. Bolsonaro backers have refused to accept leftist Lula's election victory.

Deutsche Welle
Yeah it’s real.
In this video you can see they are inside the Brazilian Congress building.
Here they are inside the building. I’m looking for the QAnon Shaman but haven’t seen him yet.
That whole thing about 1/6 being a model for other countries WAS NOT JUST A THEORY.
Mike Flynn should sue these insurrectionists for plagiarism.
Look at all these Brazilian pAtrioTs.
This is when they broke the line. Telegram is absolutely on fire excited about this.

I found this one on convicted insurrectionist Baked Alaska’s channel. He feels so validated now.

Taking selfies in the ruins of your own National Congress.

This Kremlin propaganda Telegram channel is connecting this to QAnon of course.
Here they are invading the Supreme Federal Court of Brazil.

Here is Ali Alexander, organizer of “Stop the Steal,” and somehow still a free man, despite admitting to planning the insurrection with Congressmembers.

“Do whatever is necessary! Love y’all!”

This is why we are fucked.

There appears to be almost no law enforcement on the scene. I’m afraid this is going to be a long term occupation — or a bloodbath.
Here’s Mike Flynn’s second favorite billionaire with Eduardo Bolsanaro on 1/5/21.
Here’s Eduardo with Steve Bannon and batshit QAnon lady Wendy Rogers at Mike Lindell’s “Cyber Symposium” catastrophe. Also Ivanka.
Just change the colors on the flags and this could literally be video of 1/6.
I was afraid of this. It looks like at least some of the cops are on board with the Brazilian insurrection.
Yep. Here’s a cop being escorted and applauded by the violent insurrectionists.
I wonder if it’s a coincidence that Jair Bolsanaro was at Mar-a-lago last week. 🤔

Teary Bolsonaro calls loss unfair, condemns violence, flies to Florida

The outgoing president of Brazil apparently plans to skip the inauguration Sunday of his successor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

The Washington Post
This is the presidential “Planalto” palace. They have taken the seats of power of all three branches of government. Congress, Supreme Court, and the Brazilian White House.
This is gleefully being spread around QAnon/Kremlin Telegram. It’s fake but you get the idea.

Welp, the authorities certainly know where insurrection planner Ali Alexander is.

Since he’s saying out loud “Tomorrow will be bigger in Brazil. Activating all blessings and networks” it really seems like someone should PUT THIS PIECE OF SHIT IN PRISON.

If only someone could have seen this coming. 😑

Here’s Bannon openly calling for a Bolsonaro coup more than two months ago.

Former Trump Aide Jason Miller Detained in Brazil Over Alleged 'Anti-Democratic Acts'

Miller, who traveled to Brazil to speak with the country's far-right President Jair Bolsonaro ahead of Tuesday's anti-democracy marches, has been permitted to return to the U.S. after being questioned at a Brazilian airport.

Common Dreams

The media is treating the violent insurrection of one of the largest countries in the world with the seriousness it deserves.

Seriously, shut the entire fuck up about football. 🤬

More Brazilian cops casually chilling with insurrectionists.
Shockingly, the insurrectionists are blaming “ANTIFA.”
This appears to be Brazilian military going along with the program and getting cheered by the rioters.

I’d like everyone to remember that Mike Flynn gave the QAnon oath in his backyard on the 4th of July 2020. It ended with “where we go one we go all” which is abbreviated to WWG1WGA.

Cable news is still obsessing about Damar Hamlin.

Does anyone remember breathless reporting of the fake “coup” false flag in Turkey before the 2016 elections that gave Erdogan an excuse to create a police state?

The one in Brazil is not fake, but the media really couldn’t appear to care less. 🤔

In late 2015, Mike Flynn was paid $600,000 by a cutout of the Turkish government for “consulting.”

In Summer 2016 there was a “coup” in Turkey that cemented Erdogan’s power and falsely pointed the blame at Turkish cleric Fetullah Gulen. The feckless press believed the false flag hook, line and sinker.

On election day 2016, Mike Flynn wrote a fawning “op-ed” praising Erdogan and attacking Gulen. Later it was reported that Flynn had been thinking about *kidnapping* Gulen in Pennsylvania.

The Brazilians really have learned from Americans.
There’s a video going around supposedly showing a Brazilian Supreme Court Justice’s dildo collection. 🫣
@jimstewartson Mike Flynn -American general? American traitor?
@jimstewartson It's not in the interests of the billionaire owners of the media to connect the dots between the billionaire financiers of right wing coup attempts.
@jimstewartson I am old enough to remember getting swarmed by bots for commenting on that thread. Phone, email, social accts, id theft, etc. 🤦‍♂️
@jimstewartson this is BANNON. He’s been pushing “stop the steal” rhetoric for weeks on this

@jimstewartson @[email protected] he impregnated them with abortion pills?

@jimstewartson

US media refused reporting it because of Bannon's ties to the trump Administration.

@jimstewartson
Did you see this?

RT @[email protected]

BREAKING 🇧🇷: Evidence suggests that the Brasilia insurrection may have been planned in Florida. Secretary of Security for the Federal District is in the USA and recently traveled to Orlando — exactly where Jair Bolsonaro is currently staying.

@natasha514b @jimstewartson

Everything will depend on the military. If they step in, the question is on what side?

@Raven47 @jimstewartson
Someone just tooted that security services are removing insurrectionists from the building.

@natasha514b @jimstewartson

Yes, but they need much more security forces. Apparently, 2,5 k soldiers are ready to step in

@Raven47
I woke up from a nap and found out that forces from Chile might step in. Still catching up on this developing story. I wonder what the Brazilian RWNJs on the bird site are saying? 🤪 I can read a bit of Portuguese without translation. Will also check what serious journalists are saying also, if I can find any. 🇧🇷 #Jan8 #Brazil
@natasha514b @Raven47 Chile offered to send forces but from what I've gathered the Brazilian federal police took care of everything in less than an hour after Lula's decree

@sofiav @natasha514b

The coup is over!
About 200 arrests so far.
However, it took so long because security forces, governmental institutions and political officials are supporters of Bolsonaro.
Lula has to succeed! The Amazon rain forest and democracy are at stake!

@Raven47 @natasha514b yeah, it's really concerning that the Federal District police refused to do their jobs. I hope they all get fired
@sofiav
I forgot to add the word “federal” but fixed it. So glad I can edit my toots. I had wondered about the loyalty of police as I saw the local ones in a photo calmly watching, doing nothing.

@sofiav @natasha514b

They doing their job now because Lula decreted federal intervention of public security in DF (like DC in the US). The "right hand" of the justice minister is now the boss!

@Raven47 @natasha514b yeah, Brazil has a lot of different police forces, which is usually a bad thing but worked out in this case

@sofiav @Raven47
Thanks. I’ll try to find out how much the Brazilian federal police have taken “care of everything.” This is what Brazilian media is saying:

“170 Bolsonarist terrorists are arrested after anti-democratic acts in Brasilia.” (Translation)

@natasha514b @sofiav

CNN Brasil mentioned 200 but this number may rise

@Raven47 @sofiav The number 170 from Brazilian media could’ve been from a couple of hours ago.
@natasha514b @Raven47 they cleared the bolsominions out of the buildings pretty quickly. There's still work to do in terms of finding the people who financed all of this, but the government will be able to function normally tomorrow, at least
@sofiav Thank God for that. I was afraid this would be a successful coup. I hope #Lula can govern as he was elected to do. #Brazil 🇧🇷
@natasha514b I was really worried about a coup/"self-coup" by Bolsonaro in the first couple of days after the election, but when that didn't happen I felt able to relax. The Brazilian military and police are full of fascists but apparently they've decided not to do what they did in 1964, where they closed Congress at gunpoint. The fascist civilians running around in soccer shirts are just clowns
@sofiav
I never underestimate what fascists can do. It’s not the little foot soldiers I’m concerned about. Whomever organized this insurrection will try again if allowed. #Brazil is a #BRICS nation so that means #Putin has been involved in what is happening through information warfare, at least.

@sofiav @natasha514b

In a press conference the justice minister claimed that they know already the backers.

@Raven47 @sofiav
I hope they throw their asses in prison quickly and not drag things out for the next two years with little to show for it.

@natasha514b @sofiav

At 22:57 Brasilia time: 260 arrests

@Raven47 @natasha514b @sofiav I wish action against our coupers had been as swift
@carowe @Raven47 @sofiav
#Brazil is linked to #russia through the #BRICS alliance. How will Putin pull strings going forward? That’s what I’m concerned about.
🇷🇺🤝🇧🇷
@natasha514b @carowe @Raven47 BRICS is an alliance of equals--Putin doesn't pull Brazil's strings, and Lula doesn't pull Russia's. Bolsonaro mostly ignored BRICS because he wanted the US pulling his strings, so I actually hope Lula puts some effort into strengthening it again

@sofiav @natasha514b @carowe

Bolsonaro's health is not 100% because he suffered a stabbing attack in 2018. Long term his four sons will probably be the banner bearers. They socialize and conspire directly with Trump, Bannon, Kushner, Musk and Co. already for years. They can get to Putin or any other autocrat at any time. They don't need BRIX.

@sofiav @natasha514b @carowe

Sorry it is BRICS

@Raven47
We can edit our toots here. I do it often. I knew what you meant. This is a translation of what Brazilian Senator Alvaro Dias just tweeted along with an obscured video of what looks like a defecating insurrectionist in Brasília today:

“What to say about a scene like the one seen today in the barbarism promoted in Brasilia? What is this collective disease that has infected so many people in our country?”

Alvaro Dias on Twitter

“O que falar de uma cena como essa vista hoje na barbárie promovida em Brasília? Que doença coletiva é essa que infectou tantas pessoas no nosso Pais?”

Twitter
@Raven47 @sofiav @natasha514b a pox on them all. Clearly my Donald Trump voodoo doll is too limited In potential scope and I need a few more for some other targets

@natasha514b @carowe @Raven47 @sofiav

Nah, this particular brand of stupidity we imported from the US, directly from Trump and Bannon.

@ojonnysilva @carowe @Raven47 @sofiav
Bannon, Trump, Flynn, Stone and the rest all have ties to Putin.
@natasha514b @ojonnysilva @carowe @Raven47 ties, sure, but that doesn't mean he's a mastermind pulling everyone's strings. These fascists make alliances when it suits them but they'll turn on their allies just as quickly. Putin sucks but the idea that every bad thing in the world is his fault is really overblown (most of it is actually the US's fault 🙃)
@natasha514b @carowe @Raven47 @sofiav and how some American politicians have pulled strings and will pull strings?

@natasha514b @sofiav

Different source reports more than 400 arrests

@Raven47 @natasha514b I think the 400 number is coming from the governor of the DF, who is probably lying to try to get out of being held responsible for the mess
@natasha514b everything crazy starts in Florida.
@natasha514b @jimstewartson And they probably secretly met at #Cinderella's Castle at #DisneyWorld to plan it all.

@natasha514b @jimstewartson

Idk if this is relevant or not to #brazil rn but if the above story is also true I think this belongs here
