Communist Dictator Lula Orders Arrest of the True Winner of the Presidential Election and Demands His Passport be Seized; Marco Rubio Quarterbacks Operation to Evacuate Him from the Shithole Country
Will Chamberlain
@willchamberlain Flavio Bolsonaro's passport was cancelled and he was forced to flee the country by Lula, Alexandre De Moraes, and the insane Brazilian regime. His brother Eduardo has an arrest warrant out for lobbying the US. His father, Jair Bolsonaro is serving 27 years. Victims of political persecution, all of them. It's time for the Brazilian left to face the full force of American diplomatic and economic sanctions until they stop acting like a banana republic. The Trump administration lifted Magnitsky Act sanctions on de Moraes, his wife, and his holding company last December. They should be immediately reimposed. Further, visa bans should be imposed on every government official who has touched the Bolsonaro investigations - and their families too. Finally, Section 301 tariffs on Brazilian goods should be quadrupled. The Brazilian regime should look carefully at what has happened to Venezuela and Cuba, and remember that this hemisphere belongs to the United States of America.
Simón Levy
@SimonLevyMx As I reported hours ago, Flávio Bolsonaro has arrived safely in United States. The mastermind behind this operation is U.S. Secretary of State @SecRubio. From the United States, free and safe, Flávio will lead the opposition against Lula.
Dictatorship on full swing in Brazil!
A PT congressman, member of Lula’s far-left party, incredibly admits today on the House floor: “I have information from the Federal Police that they’re going to arrest many Bolsonaro supporters.” Hear it for yourself! https://t.co/xIZhPBsewG— Marcel van Hattem (@marcelvanhattem) October 28, 2026
@MikeBenzCyber This doesn't sound like the actions of a legitimate winner. Lula needs to be Maduro-ed.

@EmmaRincon 14h Translated from Spanish Lula threatened Bolsonaro in the debate, telling him to be careful because he would lose his immunity. Not even three days have passed since the election, and he had to flee Brazil because Lula was going all out to have him arrested. Is this a democracy?
Lula amenazó a Bolsonaro en el debate, le dijo que tuviese cuidado porque perdería su inmunidad.
No han pasado tres días de la elección y tuvo que huir de Brasil porque Lula iba con todo a arrestarle. ¿Es esto una democracia? https://t.co/NJCl1Wwfqx— Emmanuel Rincón (@EmmaRincon) October 27, 2026
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump indicates Brazil and Lula likely STOLE the election from Flavio Bolsonaro
"[Democrats] cheat SO WELL...although, BRAZIL's doing a pretty good job, also, aren't they? Did you see that one? That was not nice...I did NOT like, it did NOT look too good." And now, reports say Flavio is coming to FLORIDA and he will be granted asylum in America Brazil is being taken over by fraudsters and cheaters, and it COMES TO AMERICA if we let Dems win!— Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) October 27, 2026
Gina Milan
@ginamilan_ 17h Let me break down the Flavio Bolsonaro situation and why he is in the United States just hours after the election... First, they imprisoned his father. They sentenced Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years and placed him under house arrest after he challenged the 2022 results and was accused of plotting to overturn the election. In this recent election, Bolsonaro was ahead. Lula and his thugs, including his former corruption lawyer, who now sits on Brazil's Supreme Court, requested a two-hour extension that miraculously produced enough votes for Lula to win. That extension added only about 35,000 votes, roughly 0.03 percent of the total, which is nowhere near enough to explain Lula's final margin of roughly 4.4 million votes. Bolsonaro immediately challenged the election because anyone who is not a communist and has a brain could see that the election was stolen from him if they actually paid attention to what was happening. President Trump called the outcome a rigged election and said it looked very bad. Hours later, they accused him of trying to overturn the election, EXACTLY as they did to his father, and accused him of inciting "violence" in the streets. Then they prohibited him from leaving the country, even though he had committed no crime, and canceled his passport to make sure he could not leave. Fortunately, Bolsonaro had been working with the United States. They extracted him in an undisclosed operation before the authorities could throw him in prison just like his father. Meanwhile, while ALL of this is unfolding, Lula's little tranny lover, Erika Hilton, who is a "Congresswoman," is publicly calling for the Brazilian government to seize Bolsonaro's and his wife's assets and freeze ALL their bank accounts. DOES THAT SOUND NORMAL TO YOU? A man challenges an election, and suddenly the Brazilian government is coming after him for doing exactly that. THIS IS COMMUNISM. So while you see Democrats across our country congratulating Lula on his victory, including Alex Soros, the biggest demon of them all, understand exactly what you are looking at. These are the people cheering on a government that is targeting its political opposition. They are the enemy, and they will attempt the SAME thing against a Republican here in America, just as they did to Trump. This is EXACTLY why it is essential to vote RED and make absolutely sure our country NEVER becomes what Brazil has become. ONCE YOU GO COMMUNIST, YOU CAN NEVER GET OUT OF IT.

Brazil really does need the Venezuela/Cuba treatment. This will be a big step. Brazil's a major economy, and even during the many years of military rule, was not subject to serious sanctions.
Expecting Little Marco will be announcing a comprehensive punitive isolation and sanctions regime soon. Let's see Bessent sick OFAC on Lula's people and their assets. It's a shame given what a great culture Brazil has, but criminal authoritarian regimes need to be treated as such.

Lula was a big part of the Sao Paulo Forum when it was formed back in the 90s.
Lula and Fidel Castro were the main instigators behind this idea after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Basically, it's a large conference of leftist parties from around South America and the Caribbean, they also allowed leftist parties from the rest of the world as well.
A lot of the '21st Century Socialism' that Chavez won on in Venezuela were based on ideas, strategies, and tactics developed at the SPF.
It's been a poison in Latin America, but especially in Brazil where there younger generations are all totally brainwashed by an education system that is all the woke of American, Canadian, and European education and then some.
Between Lula, and his chosen successor Rousseff who was ultimately impreached, Brazil has been ruled by the PT (Worker's Oarty) since 2004. The only break from it, and the only man who ever had a chance to win those two decades, was Jair Bolsanaro winning in 2017.
The PT is dug in like a tick now, and they aren't letting go.
If we, in America, can take anything from the situation it's that this is a vision of the future for us if the Dems take control in 2029.

They didn’t. Lula saw he was losing, and he kept polls open an additional 2 hours. But not all the polls, only the polls on the areas that favored him. A judge ruled against this, but I don’t know what the update is on that. Probably a judge in jail.

Brazil exports between 2 and 2.5 million barrels per day.

No TJM there's no benefit to behind-scenes vs. public pressure here. This is clearly a hard case and won't yield to threats and bribes. Plus it's a good time to rally other Latin American govts. and test them.
Military has long lost its apetite for intervening, I think. Recall that as in other neighboring countries they were drawn in in the 60s/70s by actual insurrectiony action by commies and others. Different times.
Brazil unfortunately has a brutal class system overlaid with racial red lines, so commie populist appeals of the worst sort will always have traction. But I think the military wouldn't think of getting involved absent major civil violence or threats to its own status.

Someone said above that the extra two hours only resulted in 35,000 votes for lula in the tweet ace posted at top.
I wonder where that number comes from?
People are not skeptical enough, they should say "the regime *claims* the extra two hours only resulted in 35,000" votes but only a fucking moron would believe a word those commie pricks say."

Brazil actually worries me. I worked with their army some years ago and was impressed with their professionalism. (A lot of ex-pat German influence). Brazil has millions of miles of untouched resources. They would be a major 2nd world.power now except.for the corruption. A communist Brazil is no bueno!

He's also seizing the passports of other political opponents.
Because that's what you do when you legitimately win.
Right now, my favorite is the lefties claiming "only 46k votes were cast during that 2 hour extra."
Proof?

Yeah, Lula's pet judges made sure that petitions from Bolsonara's party to let THEIR supporters vote for the extra two hours were denied. Lula needed to know how many fake votes he needed to win, and I have no doubt that his party had fake votes at the ready to make up the difference.

I hesitate to ask, but is it possible that the Brazilians are stupid enough to elect Lula for real? I don't know Brazilian people or politics at all.
Posted by: Blonde Morticia at October 28, 2026 03:30 PM (mmrXZ)
Lula is a hero to many Brazilians.
He was a dirt-poor nobody and eventually rose up to become a union leader during the military dictatorship from the 60s to the 80s.
He is idolized by the Brazilian left.
They've made feature films about his life.
He is popular in Brazil, but for a decade, similar to here, the Brazilian right has become a force again because of the constant march to the left of the nation, and corruption that is endemic among all politicians and bureaucrats.
Brazil has its own Religious Right and plenty of anti-communists because they aren't stupid and see what it does to a society.
Something unprecedented has happened with Lula covering an 11 million vote spread from the first to the second round while the right won the legislature outright.
I believe the race was close, because they are as divided as a country as we are, but no way do I believe Lula pulled out 4.4 million extra votes on Sunday to win.
How they cheated, I have no idea.

I was there in 1985 when the military relinquished rule to an elected civilian government. Things were completely pacified from the late 60s, when there was lots of spicy violent action on the streets.
My favorite part of Lula's quite implausible explosion of 2nd round support was that a lot of it came from states in the south that are the last place Lula will have much support. Parana, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul. Fairly European, prosperous, etc. "Conservative" culturally and politically.

The fascism in world governments become more visible step by step.
Fascism didn't die at the end of World War II. It seems it's pessimistic/realistic theory bled into all the worlds' governments.
Russia grew into a state socialism with international aspirations. So aspirationally pure Marxism, but functionally national socialism, i.e., fascism.
Even the post-Russia criticism by socialist theorist of Russia was that it doesn't exhibit socialism at alll. No, Russia was "state capitalism". It's just the State played the role of the Capitalist, selling Russian labor in a world market. (Just like North Korea is doing now.)
Despite that this argument is a mite specious, it's not a model that we can't work within. There was no pure, lasting Marxism, outside of Cambodia--and that didn't exactly last.
Plus a stage of Marxist history is the Dictatorship (in the Name) of the Proletariat, which is a fascist-equivalent state with the social goal of changing man's nature to what is fit for "communism".
Thus Marxism has an inherent fascism problem, because it's simply the strongest variation.
Among Marxish variations, it really is the survival of the fittest (to survive).

Most Brazilian coffee goes to the European market I believe.
Back when I was last there, gas stations often had a weird sweet smell to them - gasohol, with alcohol distilled from sugar cane (so, kinda like rum that took a wrong turn). And back then they had enormous farms of sugar cane still going, with a permanently down world sugar price.

That's the thing about Lula.
He's taken the country to the left, but he really hasn't gone after agriculture.
Nationalized Petrobras, added and expanded welfare programs, and raised taxes.
But he's never gone full Chaves/Maduro so far.

So yeah, they are stupid enough.

And there are signs that the DOJ is setting up very open traps for state election officials to fall into as they execute this year's midterms, especially in CA with those 20,000 ineligible voters.

"Bright idea" government will always have a fascism problem.
There are no hard-fast rules of governance, and the people have to be managed. So, the means depend on the argued need of the ends.
(The most farcical thing was Marxist spreading the slogan that the "Ends don't justify the means" post Viet Nam war when that's pretty much Marxism.)

Like I said, Brazil is saddled with a very bad de facto class system, with a racial overlay. So commie/populist appeals (understandably) have a lot of traction.
As in other regional countries during the turbulent 60s/70s, military rule even with its uglier side had support among the middle class, for obvious reasons. I don't think Lula's move to become a TEMU Peron or Mussolini will resonate well outside the favelas and usual brain-dead leftist demos/institutions.

The legal system in America is slow, but the key is that the DOJ didn't start anything in the last few months like the RNC would normally do when it needed to put on a show of some legal recourse to obvious bullshit on the horizon.
They started suing blue states for their voter rolls the moment Harmeet Dhillon was appointed to the DOJ Civil Rights Division (it took a few months after the inauguration to get her through the Senate on April 3, 2025). And they just keep grinding away at it, no matter the push back from the judiciary.

We went to South America this past spring. We had only been to Colombia in SA before.
Hubby wanted nothing to do with Brazil, calling it "bad news" for years.
We started in Bueno Aries for a week, then got on a ship around the horn (top 5 travel experience!) up the west coast and on through the Panama Canal from the west ending in Ft. Lauderdale.
Great trip and we did not miss Brazil even a little bit.
Our son and DIL went about six weeks later - started in Chile (for Machu Picchu) ended in Argentina and also really enjoyed it. They too skipped Brazil with no desire to go there.
Brazil may be pretty but it is too dangerous for us. I doubt it is getting any safer.

But Brazilian managers, on occasion, show that tendency.

Will he refrain from doing so until after the US midterms?

This is the news media testing out the right spin for when Democrats win and start prosecuting Republicans for just being Republican. "See, Republicans are hiring lawyers and trying to avoid prison--they must be guilty."

Crime? Haven't kept up, but probably not a big issue in the places I spent most of my time - not Rio or SP. Most Americans have never heard of the best places down there. Again, depending on age/interests/situation, I am confident still a lot of potential. I rarely go to popular places or otherwise travel like a tourist, and for that Brazil is spectacular.
I went there many moons ago and stayed for over 6 months, traveling all over the enormous country. One of the best things I've ever done.

Brazil's Flávio Bolsonaro:
I address the Brazilian people and the international community as the true elected president of Brazil.
On Sunday night, I watched in horror as electoral fraud unfolded right before my eyes.
I would like to thank President Trump and the wonderful American people for welcoming me.
What we have here is a politically motivated witch hunt intended to hold me hostage.
It was not my intention to leave my homeland, but I know exactly where this is headed.
I did not flee Brazil. I left for Brazil’s sake. I left a state of exception so that I could be the leader my people deserve.
Faced with the politicization of the justice system in Brazil, I brought my family to the United States.
I will lead the opposition from here.
To the international community, I ask you not to normalize what is happening in Brazil."

This story is worth an ace post! The cruise line totally fucked these people. Literally said "get the fuck off the boat" and dumped them in a shithole in Cambodia. No arrangements or payments to get home. Just threw them overboard! No refunds. Some of these retards sold their homes and paid 100s of thousands of dollars for the cruise. So sad.

Lula gets more support from the north of Brazil, where the population is full of descendants of slaves.
The right in Brazil is in the south, especially the far south, where all the Germans and Italians immigrated to.
The largest cities, Sao Paulo and Rio, are both leftist, but are surrounded by more conservative regions.
If they had a civil war it would be centered on the cities and the northeast.

Just to update, in the CA case:
- CA has admitted they don't check citizenship
- CA has admitted they do not have any way to check citizenship
- Article II is clear that Congress can pass laws regulating who can vote
- Congress has passed a law that only citizens can vote
- Congress has passed a law that it is crime to knowingly allow someone to illegally vote
So that is why the cartel judge is going to rule:
1) there is no standing for the DOJ to determine who votes in federal elections in CA,
2) it is not a crime to illegally vote in CA if you don't know that it was a crime, and
3) if CA elections officials knowingly let illegally registered voters vote, it is not a crime because they had no way to know they were illegally registered to vote.
Plus, as I mentioned, he'll discard all the evidence and then find there was no evidence of vote fraud or people not eligible to vote, voting.

> Yanomami myth
A vagina lined with pirhanas. Yow!
In other vagina-related mythology, this time from Alaska.
In the beginning, Raven was the only creature who had fire, and he guarded it jealously.
One winter was extremely harsh, and the humans started freezing to death. A woman volunteered to attempt to steal some fire from Raven, as otherwise she would die anyway.
She made up a basket full of Raven's favorite foods and went to his house and sat outside. "Oh, here I am with this delicious food, but I will certainly freeze to death before I can prepare it."
Raven heard this and invited the woman in to warm up, on the condition that she share her food.
After dinner, Raven went to sleep. The woman quietly picked up a burning coal and put in her vagina (yeah, I know, ouch!), then quickly left. She came home and kindled a fire and the people were saved.
When Raven found out, he was angry, and yet, being a trickster himself, he admired the woman.
"Your punishment will be this: From now on your vagina will itch and you will long for a man to make it stop itching. When you find a man who can make it stop itching, you will wish for a different man to make it itch again."

There's a fun trend I've been seeing on Twitter where people are putting their new smart TVs on debug mode, pointing an AI agent at the TV, checking out all of the spyware on it, then doing a bunch of cleanup.
The TVs are watching to see if you're paying attention to the screen. The TVs are watching the screen to detect food, text, sports, which video game you're playing, etc. The microphone is on, listening for certain phrases. They're even counting times they hear a baby crying or pets making noise (barking, meowing, etc). Some will even look for Bluetooth devices that have a microphone if they don't have access to a live mic and try to gain microphone access that way.
Lots of people are reporting their TVs go from sluggish to snappy when you remove the spyware and bloatware.
Some of the models will refuse to "hack" devices you own. But there are a lot of AI models.
If you're not a tech person, I'd suggest not plugging these devices into the network. If you ARE a tech person, try it out. Point a grokbot to your device and see what you can see.

They'll just burn down the rain forest to clear new land. The ashes leach down into the upper layers of acidic soil for a couple of years, so you end up with maybe 2 years of decent crop yields at most. Then it turns into a desert, and you move on to burn down another several thousand acres of rain forest. Rinse and repeat.
