Thousands of Bolsonaro supporters invade Brazil's Congress in Brasilia - after refusing to accept new President Lula's victory in 'stolen' election - copying Trump-inspired January 6th invasion of the US Capitol in 2021

Supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro have stormed the National Congress building in Brasilia - in a move similar to Trump Voters' January 6 invasion.

The protestors invaded Congress building, the Supreme Court, presidential palace and are calling for the military to overthrow current President Luiz Inacio.

Left-wing veteran Inacio has only been in power for a week, after being inaugurated a week ago as supporters of the former president claim the election was stolen.

Footage from the scenes strike an eerie similarity to those who stormed the Capitol building on January 6th after claims from former President Trump that the election was stolen.

Supporters of Bolsonaro can be seen breaking through the barriers and entering the building.

It comes after da Silva, known as Lula, defeated far-right Bolsonaro in an October election.

President da Silva is currently on an official state trip in São Paulo, after saying in his inauguration speech he would rebuild a country in ‘terrible ruins’.

If the election was stolen, I agree to this demonstration.
I don’t agree if the election was fair.

So I don’t know what to say here.

Back when we still had a free press in America and it was not government-controlled, a story like this would be breaking news and regular programming would be interrupted with special reports on the uprising in one of the largest countries in the world.

But dead silence here because our government does not want the American people getting any ideas that the ultimate power rests with them.

Funny how the libs have forgotten that a free nation doesn’t govern without the will of the people.

They’re taking “Go big or go home” seriously!

Citizens down there have also deputized themselves to take down bandits on motorcycles with their own “patrol cars.”

Of course I do not know why, but it is amazing that you find this is the main story covered in British, Swedish, French, German etc newspapers. And this despite it being late Sunday evening here. And nothing in the US papers!!!!!

The dems will love this and claim Trump wanted to overthrow the government.

US Globalist Election Fixers were in Brazil for many many months setting things up for this catastrophe.
Commie Prog fingerprints are all over it.
Vote count anomalies are all over the place.
Guess what machines they used?

Stolen in broad daylight. The people will suffer.
WEF Globalists celebrate.

Lots of ChiCom influence will help Brazil Red.

We are in the fight of our lives in the West against leftism. In my opinion, any people with the balls to take the fight the leftists/commies deserve support.
