Brazilian Congress Erupts in Protest Over Bolsonaro’s Arrest|Tape Mouths, Threaten Action Against SC

Brazil's political crisis deepens as lawmakers in Congress stage a dramatic protest against the Supreme Court's decision to place former President Jair Bolsonaro under house arrest for violating a social media ban. Members from six major right-wing parties—including PL, PP, PSD, Novo, and Republicans—taped their mouths shut and threatened to occupy the plenary halls of both the House and Senate. Flávio Bolsonaro denounced the judiciary’s actions as a targeted assault on his family, while senior MPs demanded total amnesty and even impeachment of Minister Alexandre de Moraes. With threats of “war” from Bolsonaro’s allies and growing public anger, Brazil faces a possible constitutional showdown. #Bolsonaro #BrazilCongress #BrazilProtests #HouseArrest #SupremeCourt #AlexandreDeMoraes #FlavioBolsonaro #BrazilPolitics #AmnestyNow #WitchHunt #Brasilia #JairBolsonaro #LatinAmericaCrisis #DemocracyUnderFire #PoliticalShowdown ~HT.318~ED.103~PR.274~

Brazil Jails Trump’s Ally Bolsonaro—White House WARNS of Consequences as Trade WAR with Lula Ignites

Brazil’s political crisis just went global. Former President Jair Bolsonaro has been placed under house arrest by Brazil’s Supreme Court for allegedly plotting a coup to stay in power after losing the 2022 election. But the arrest has sparked international outrage — especially from former U.S. President Donald Trump, who blasted the move as a “witch hunt” targeting one of his closest allies. In retaliation, the U.S. administration has imposed a 50% tariff on Brazilian imports, linking it directly to Bolsonaro’s legal case. Trump and U.S. officials are calling out Brazil’s judiciary for “silencing” Bolsonaro and demanding that he be allowed to speak publicly. #Bolsonaro #Trump #BrazilNews #WitchHunt #TradeWar #USBrazilRelations #JairBolsonaro #TrumpAlly #LulaDaSilva #BrazilPolitics #GlobalCrisis #TariffWar #BolsonaroTrial #PoliticalPersecution #BreakingNews

Anti-Trump Protests ERUPT Across Brazil Outside U.S Embassy Over Tariffs | Bolsonaro Blamed

A fiery protest erupted outside the U.S. Embassy in Brasilia as Brazilian students, workers, political parties, and social movements came together to oppose President Donald Trump’s newly imposed tariffs. The demonstrators, chanting “Trump’s paws off Brazil,” accused Trump of economic aggression and denounced Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro for allegedly siding with U.S. interests over national sovereignty. Waving banners and flags, protesters vowed to defend Brazil’s economy from what they called “imperialist interference,” promising to take the matter to diplomatic and legal platforms. One protester passionately declared the need to “bury Bolsonarism,” signaling rising domestic discontent with U.S.-Brazil relations. Brazil’s government has already announced plans to challenge the tariffs on international legal grounds. The protest not only highlighted economic fears but also symbolized growing resistance to what many see as external pressure dictating Brazil’s policy. The fiery slogans and symbolic defiance mark a bold moment in Brazil’s struggle for economic independence. #Trump #BrazilProtest #Tariffs #Brasilia #USBrazilRelations #TrumpTariffs #Bolsonarism #EconomicSovereignty #BrazilResists #USImperialism #BrazilNews #AntiTrumpProtest #BrazilianWorkers #USEmbassyProtest #TradeWar #InternationalPolitics #LatinAmericaNews #TrumpInBrazil #GlobalProtests #EconomicJustice ~HT.410~GR.122~ED.346~

Russian Troops Shoot Down Ukrainian Drones With Assault Rifles | 6 UAVs Destroyed Near Freight Train

In a dramatic display of low-tech defense, Russian troops reportedly shot down six Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using assault rifles during an attempted drone attack on a freight train in the Zaporozhye Region. The encounter, captured on video and shared by RT, shows soldiers firing directly at incoming drones — destroying them mid-air before they could reach their target. The freight train was secured, and no damage was reported. According to Russian sources, this marks an increase in Ukraine’s drone attacks on civilian infrastructure — a trend Moscow says it will counter with any means necessary. #RussiaUkraineWar #DroneWarfare #RussianMilitary #UAVAttack #AssaultRifleDefense #UkraineConflict #Zaporozhye #RTNews #DroneStrike #FreightTrainAttack #GunfireVsDrones #MilitaryFootage #WarInUkraine #BreakingNews Also Read India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc
