What Happened in Brazil on Sunday Was Absolutely Outrageous. We’re Next.

In Lula’s Brazil, the fix is in, and the Left is fine with it. Republicans should heed the warning. - Scott McKay
They’re calling it an upset. 
  • But nobody — nobody — should be surprised that Luiz InΓ‘cio Lula da Silva was “re-elected” to a fourth term as Brazil’s president in a stunningly irregular vote Sunday night.
  • Lula’s government is astonishingly corrupt and vicious. 
So much so that the last candidate to oppose him — former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro — sits in prison on a 27-year sentence for, essentially, thinking about a “coup” after losing the 2022 election to Lula under sketchy circumstances.
  • But nothing like what happened on Sunday.
This year’s Liberal Party candidate — the Liberal Party in Brazil is the main conservative party — was FlΓ‘vio Bolsonaro, son of the jailed ex-president.
