I don't want to sound alarmist, but there is a serious attempt at a coup happening in the open right now in Brazil. The Federal Traffic Police along with state police and elements of the army are trying to suppress the vote across the country. I will continue to post updates— Benjamin Fogel (@BenjaminFogel) October 30, 2022

Allegedly Bolsonaro has ordered the general of the Federal Traffic Police to halt public transport of voters with force. The military and police are now openly stopping busses. Said general says he will not obey orders from the electoral court

    Senator Otto Alencar, from Bahia, claims that he was stopped by the Federal Highway Police, in Feira de Santana, because his car had sticker 13. Cars with Bolsonaro's sticker are not stopped.

    Imagine if Evo did this. The democracy loving free press would pitch a fit of historical proportions. Oh wait they did pitch a fit when Evo tried to maintain power at the will of the populace, legally.
