BREAKING: Hordes of supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro assaulted Congress, the presidential palace, and other key government buildings there Sunday, recalling the historic attack on the U.S. Capitol just over two years ago.
“This absurd attempt to impose their will by force will not prevail,” Flavio Dino, Brazil’s minister for justice, tweeted. “The government of the Federal District has ensured there will be reinforcements. And the forces at our disposal are at work.”
Many of Bolsonaro’s supporters have categorically refused to accept that he lost the nation’s presidential election to his far-left rival, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, in October. Bolsonaro, who served as Brazil’s president from 2019 until last month, has baselessly alleged that a software bug compromised a swath of the country’s voting machines during the election.
