Very disturbing Twitter thread about the attempted coup in Brazil. It's a long but an essential read to give context to the role of Bannon et al, and some of those in Brazil. Bolsanaro almost certainly knew it was coming and probably helped with the planning, as did his son. Twitter was a hotbed of disinfo.
“BREAKING: pro-#Bolsonaro rioters breach Congress, Supreme Court & Presidential Palace in 🇧🇷#Brazil. Ex president promotes a stolen election lie & has been close to Trump. He skipped inauguration of his predecessor & flew to Florida. By: @peterbmillard https://t.co/BMTRXeYqYG”
He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
