Brazil braced Friday for possible new U.S. sanctions linked to former President Jair Bolsonaro’s conviction on coup charges, after the administration of President Donald Trump warned it would respond “accordingly.”
Brazil’s Foreign Ministry called Rubio’s comments an inappropriate threat that would not intimidate the government, adding that the country’s judiciary is independent and that Bolsonaro was granted due process.
“Threats like the one made today by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a statement that attacks Brazilian authority and ignores the facts and compelling evidence in the case files, will not intimidate our democracy,” Brazil’s foreign office said on X.
“You guys are so unfair to my buddy… I did the exact same thing right here and nothing happened”
This is one thing I hate Biden and the dems for… Orange fuckface should have been ineligible to any official position, and thrown in jail to rot.
While I would agree, prior to 2024, most of us kinda figured someone who was guilty of multiple felonies and was proven to be a crook , a scam artist and a pedophile would be enough marks against him to prevent his election… but here we are.
There’s a lot of things I’m furious at Biden for. But them slow-walking and doing fucking NOTHING to stop the fascists is right at the top of the list
The supreme court has a lot of the blame, don’t forget that they ruled that the USA president is above the law
It sure does shine a light on a very, very dysfunctional and broken shell of a democracy in North America. A shameful embarrassment for the whole world to see.
