Of course US electoral interference in Brazil did not begin with Trump. In 1988 the Bush administration were liaising with former dictator Geisel about a possible coup if the left won the 89 presidential election…the first since the coup of 1964.

Former head of Brazil’s Air Force reveals inside struggle to stop Bolsonaro’s coup in new book.
Without his refusal to support it, history could’ve been very different.

The much respected Vladimir Herzog institute, named after journalist murdered by US-backed dictatorship in 1976, issues open warning to Supreme Court President Fachin over US interference in the imminent election.

This VP of organisation (AS/COA) expressly set up in early 60s to enable US business to bankroll coups, gets it wrong every time, almost like it’s his job.
He called dickhead Ferreira “the future of Brazilian politics”, as if that was a good thing…

In midst of new scandal Globo continues to cite Transparency International @TI_InterBr @anticorruption as neutral and authoritative - as if it didn’t discredit itself completely through support for US-led regime change operation Lava Jato.

It is now over 11 years and counting since @ggreenwald reported anything related to US interference in Brazil.
Eleven years…

News site @Metropoles is named in messages as a recipient of disgraced banker Daniel Vorcaro’s money and should not be reporting on the case at all, let alone trying to defend Bolsonaro’s point man at the Supreme Court, André Mendonça.

Echoes of cold war as US meddles in another Brazilian election.
Trump and Rubio trying to influence result have parallels with CIA intervention 64 years ago.

The United States is interfering in the Brazilian presidential elections, and preparing for possible military intervention.

Brasil’s democracy is under attack by the United States.
As it was in 1954-1964, in 1989, and every election since.
But now they’re not even hiding it.

Brazil’s Foreign Ministry has identified 2026 election as highest foreign interference since US-backed coup of 1964.
But US always did this - in 2016-18 they had Lula jailed for “corruption” to elect US flag-waving corrupt fascist ghoul Bolsonaro.

The US Consulate in São Paulo has been attempting to entice Brazilian journalists with the promise of a US Visa if they critique the electoral system and “freedom of expression” - i.e. to benefit presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro.

A reminder that Operation Lava Jato, which jailed Lula and put Jair Bolsonaro in power, was long exposed as US-orchestrated far-right farce.
Legacy media failure to properly and honestly acknowledge this enables it to be reheated as propaganda in 2026.

Why would @jacobin even suggest that the Trump administrations open interference in Brazil’s election and judicial process might not be deliberate, when literally no one thinks that…
Not only is “Bolsonaro Jr’s” proposed sell out of Brazil’s future to the Trump administration abhorrent, it is illegal.

When Brazil uncovered a Neo-Nazi network inciting a wave of school massacres on Hitler's birthday, Musk's X/Twitter refused to remove their accounts.

In early 2018 Brasilwire reporting of US involvement in Lava Jato was used in an attempt to acquit Lula.
Greenwald was personally offered an exclusive which could have weakened case against Lula long before Bolsonaro's election.
He ignored it.
www.brasilwire.com/lulas-kafkaesque-impris...
Greenwald waited until Lava Jato had already brought Bolsonaro to power before challenging it.
Hacker Walter Delgatti complained that Greenwald refused majority of the "Vaza Jato" leak and he was disappointed by limited scope of Glenn's reporting.

2017, with Lula facing jail and US DoJ role openly admitted, Greenwald presents far right Lava Jato task force with Allard prize, lauding their "courage".
They privately called Lula's arrest, which kept him out of 2018 election, "a gift from the CIA".

A reminder that Greenwald omitted both open and covert US involvement in Lava Jato from his book about Lava Jato.
His last known writing on US inferference in Brazil was in mid 2015, despite having access to massive amounts of evidence.

Bolsonaro's attempt to buy the election cost in excess of US$54 billion in public funds and (known) private donations.
That Lula still won by over 2 million votes is extraordinary.

In addition to Google/YouTube actively pushing Pro-Bolsonaro content to Brazilian voters, US social media giant Meta has not fulfilled its promise to control electoral disinformation. @brtthnz www.brasilwire.com/the-fake-news-machine-h...
Brazilian YouTube is now overflowing with Bolsonaro ads.
A Rio University study has found Google's YouTube platform pushing Pro-Bolsonaro content to Brazilian voters during the election, above and beyond what can be explained by the algorithm.
