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.
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has drawn a firm line in the sand after the United States imposed hefty 50% tariffs on Brazilian exports. In a striking interview with Reuters, Lula declared he won’t initiate talks with President Trump that might “humiliate” his nation—saying he’ll only engage if he senses genuine willingness to negotiate. Brazil isn't retaliating with reciprocal tariffs but is pursuing WTO consultations and prepping domestic support for affected industries. Lula also unveils plans to mobilize BRICS partners like India and China for a coordinated response.
Firmly asserting Brazil’s economic sovereignty, he criticized Trump’s interference in a sovereign country’s legal affairs, particularly related to the prosecution of former president Jair Bolsonaro. Emphasizing mutual respect in diplomacy, Lula called for dignified engagement-pointing to Trump’s public humiliations of other world leaders as unacceptable conduct. He’s offering negotiation-but on his terms only.

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.

The political earthquake has triggered global backlash and ignited fears of escalating unrest across Latin America.

World powers are aligning against the U.S. as Trump’s aggressive tariff policies fuel backlash. At the upcoming SCO summit in China, leaders including Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Narendra Modi will present a united front against Western dominance. Trump’s penalties on India and Brazil have only pushed them closer to the anti-Western bloc, with Russia emerging as the common thread binding these nations. Experts warn that tariffs may not only damage U.S. economic ties but also accelerate the rise of a multipolar world order.

At the Washington summit, Donald Trump didn’t just attend — he dominated, humiliated, and exposed Europe’s weakness on the world stage. Russian analyst Fyodor Lukyanov declares that the EU no longer acts as an independent power but as Washington’s obedient puppet, bowing to Trump’s moods and accepting America’s dictates. According to Lukyanov, the EU’s leaders now flatter the U.S. president, hoping praise will buy influence, but instead they only confirm their subservience. The summit wasn’t really about Ukraine but about showcasing Europe’s reliance on American approval. While nations like China, India, and Brazil resist U.S. pressure, Europe folds without a fight. Lukyanov warns this isn’t just Trump’s personality but a structural decline in Europe’s autonomy. Once able to assert its own interests, the EU has now lost the courage to define them. For Russia, he argues, the EU has become irrelevant — a bloc with illusions but no real power.

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage.
Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions.

As the 2026 Senate elections approach, both Republicans and Democrats are gearing up for a high-stakes battle. With the GOP holding a narrow 53–47 majority, control of just five key seats could determine how much power Donald Trump holds in a possible second term. Democrats are strategizing to flip seats across the South and Midwest, while Trump faces internal GOP rifts and divisive primaries. The outcome could define everything from legislation to Supreme Court picks. The fight for Congress is already underway—and it’s anything but certain.

Senator Lindsey Graham reveals that a sweeping new Senate sanctions bill is on the brink of passage, offering President Trump a “sledgehammer” to punish not only Russia but also its key global allies like China, India, and Brazil. The legislation empowers Trump to levy up to 500% in tariffs on any nation that continues trading with Moscow — a dramatic escalation in US policy that could reshape global trade dynamics.
Graham predicts “maximum flexibility” for presidential enforcement and signals an imminent surge in military aid to Ukraine, funded by frozen Russian assets. While Moscow dismisses the move as futile and claims it merely fuels Russia’s independence, the US plans to ratchet up pressure if diplomatic efforts falter. As this bold strategy takes shape, the world braces for a seismic shift in economic warfare.
