       Important to note that it looks like Jair #Bolsonaro is in Florida:https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/01/world/americas/bolsonaro-florida-brazil.htmlSo this coup attempt might be happening with Bolsonaro out of the country. Which makes me hopeful it will not succeed.It would be good to verify that though.#Brazil #Brasil

       Also, Lula has already been sworn in, and #Bolsonaro had acknowledged electoral defeathttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/nov/02/jair-bolsonaro-reportedly-accepts-defeat-brazil-electionAs analogies are inevitably drawn with the January 6 Capitol attack, there are crucial differences that we should all keep in mind.#Brazil #Brasil

       @rysiek Can the US ever stop letting deposed dictators come and live here without consequences? Batista got to live out the rest of his life in the US in comfort. I don’t want Bolsonaro in my country **at all.** #BolsonaroDeposedDictator #Brazil #dictators
