One more amazing thing about Brazil and Lula's campaign:

The NYT today has a gushing profile of a Congressman named @AndreJanonesMG, who became the face of Lula's campaign, its chief communication strategist. and -- as a result of admittedly innovative though extremely creepy digital strategies -- the greatest hero of the Brazilian left. But listen to what the article doesn't mention:

Just 2 years ago -- not 20 years ago or 10 years ago, but 2 years ago -- Janones got caught committing one of the most despicable crimes imaginable: he forced his Congressional staff employees to transfer a portion of their (quite low) monthly public salary to him as a condition for keeping their jobs. The money he stole from his workers didn't go to his campaign: it just went to enrich himself, into his pocket,.

He got caught when the employees secretly taped him angrily telling them they should stop complaining. When all this emerged, the left-wing members of Congress loyal to Lula -- who, remember, claims to lead a movement of workers! The name of Lula's party is the Workers Party -- protected him from all consequences from stealing the salary of his workers.

The pro-Lula judiciary let Janones confess guilt and simply pay back the money that he stole. And yet this doesn't bother anyone on the Brazilian left. Janones has become a beloved figure overnight among left-wing celebrities and is now one of Lula's closest allies. The NYT profile doesn't even mention this in their gushing profile.

In the scheme of Brazil's authoritarianism, it's not the biggest issue, but to me it's one of the most revealing about what frauds these people are:

@EricTrump_1Q Yes!!

[Martin De Luca @emd_worldwide]

Someone should explain to Alexandre de Moraes and @LulaOficial the meaning of FAFO.

[Yasmim @senna_yasmim]

Lula é vaidoso. Dói na alma dele saber que ele foi rejeitado e teve que roubar para vencer.

[Allan Dos Santos @allanconta5]

Dino topou ajudar Trump e Flávio fazendo merda. 😅

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

One of Brazil's few independent left-wing parties, the Trotskyist @PCO29, has long been vehemently opposed to Moraes' censorship regime (their own accounts have been banned), and are adamant that Moraes is persecuting his own and Lula's critics, including Flavio Bolsonaro:👇

Aqui foi qdo tive a certeza da fraude.
Lula perdeu e perdeu feio a eleição.

[Joey Mannarino @JoeyMannarino]

A Brazilian Supreme Court justice has now ordered a police investigation into alleged ties between a donor network co-founded by Vice President JD Vance and the presidential campaign of Flávio Bolsonaro in the run-up to the election.

This is how the Left operates globally. They openly trash you in the media, then they steal an election in the most criminal way imaginable and then they use the system of “injustice” to try and investigate YOU until they manufacture a crime.

The Left must be defeated globally on every single continent.

The European Left is Islamifying the greatest societies known to man. The American Left is fixated on woke ideology to the point they want to make all our kids trans. The Latin American Left has captured nearly every institution to go after the right.

These are sick, sick, sick people and they’re all reading from Marx’s playbook.

Trump calls out the obvious election cheating in Brazil.

[Dr. Simon @goddek]

To my American and European audience: Did you know Alexandre de Moraes ordered Flávio Bolsonaro to hand over his passport over money-laundering investigations, while he and his wife took more than $15,000,000 USD from Daniel Vorcaro, a guy who ran a criminal bank Ponzi scheme?

[MAGA Voice @MAGAVoice]

DON’T BE LAZY. GET OUT AND VOTE. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS WORKING OVERTIME FOR US

IT’S THE LEAST WE CAN DO

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

True

🚨 Judiciário brasileiro levanta ALERTA em ISRAEL:

“MINISTRO do Supremo emitiu ORDEM de PRISÃO contra o FILHO do BOLSONARO (…) o ADVOGADO do Lula foi quem APROVOU o ADIAMENTO das ELEIÇÕES.”

[Joey Mannarino @JoeyMannarino]

Nikolas Ferreira, the 30 year old federal deputy from Minas Gerais who just became the most voted congressman in Brazilian history with over 3.1 million votes, is about to have his passport revoked and be banned from leaving the country.

Of course, he’s a right-winger and the Communists now wish to destroy him.

He was elected city councilor in 2020 with the second highest total ever in the capital, then federal deputy in 2022 with 1.49 million votes. Reelected in 2026 by doubling that number. Social media giant. Conservative Christian. Family, free markets, liberty.

One of the biggest voices on the Brazilian right.

They’re citing a 2024 “injúria” case over comments about Lula and calling bolsonarismo a “gangue” as the reason for the seizure.

This is pure lawfare. Steal an election, then go after the most popular young right wing deputy in the country before he can even speak. This election “victory” has the Communists more emboldened than ever.

Brazil is the new Venezuela. Moraes and Lula are the new Maduro. Maybe even worse.

[Joey Mannarino @JoeyMannarino]

Democrats are saying they want to deport Flavio Bolsonaro and revoke his asylum.

It would be the first time the Democrats have ever deported anyone in the history of their demented party.

Those parasites let in Islamists, Communists, criminals, rapists and murderers but their red line is a Brazilian patriot?

Fuck the Democrat Party.

ELEIÇÃO ROUBADA NO BRASIL? 🇧🇷
BRAZIL ELECTION STEAL? 🇺🇸

🇧🇷Este professor de matemática aponta que os dados divulgados pelo TSE na noite da eleição, no Brasil, revelam padrões de alterações algorítmicas que prejudicaram @FlavioBolsonaro à medida que a apuração avançava. Ele estima que Flavio deveria ter vencido com cerca de 65% dos votos.

🇺🇸This mathematics professor shows the data that came out of the TSE on election night in Brazil shows patterns of algorithmic shifts that penalized @FlavioBolsonaro as the counts came in. He projects that Flavio should have won by about 65% of the vote.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

Há algum outro exemplo em todo o mundo democrático em que o candidato derrotado numa eleição presidencial tenha seus passaportes apreendidos e seja proibido de sair do país no dia seguinte à votação, por ordem de um juiz alinhado ao candidato vencedor?

Estou procurando precedentes históricos e, até agora, não encontrei nenhum. A medida é ainda mais extrema considerando que Flávio sequer foi denunciado criminalmente.
