Pres­i­dent Lula’s gov­ern­ment is prov­ing to be a threat to Brazil’s de­mo­c­ra­t­ic fu­ture.

The Bol­sonar­ista at­tack in Brasil­ia was much more dan­ger­ous than the pro-Trump in­sur­rec­tion in Wash­ing­ton.

The on­go­ing episode of post-elec­tion vi­o­lence shows what Brazil needs to­day is not rec­on­cil­i­a­tion but de-rad­i­cal­i­sa­tion.

Bol­sonaro has gained seats in Con­gress amid a broad­er right­ward shift that will keep him in­flu­en­tial even if Lula wins.

Brazil­ian po­lice are wag­ing a dead­ly war against the poor be­cause they were cre­at­ed to do just that.

In the eyes of many Brazil­ian left­ists, the only real im­pe­ri­al­ism is US im­pe­ri­al­ism.

The ap­point­ment of An­dré Men­donça to the Supreme Court was a turn­ing point for the evan­gel­i­cal move­ment in Brazil.

There is lit­tle rea­son to be­lieve the far-right pres­i­dent will cease his at­tacks on the ju­di­cia­ry any time soon.

A May 6 po­lice op­er­a­tion in Rio’s Jacarez­in­ho favela re­sult­ed in the death of 28 peo­ple.

The an­nul­ment of for­mer Pres­i­dent Lula’s cor­rup­tion con­vic­tions threw Brazil into un­prece­dent­ed po­lit­i­cal chaos.
