“Mario, if you come to Brazil, you’ll be arrested at the airport.”
Brazil’s most-voted Congressman, son of ex-President Jair Bolsonaro, now lives in exile facing 20+ years in prison.
His father - PRESIDENT less than 3 years ago - is under house arrest, silenced, and barred from media.
In this interview, @BolsonaroSP says Brazil is no longer a democracy, accusing Justice Alexandre de Moraes of running a censorship regime backed by U.S. funding and silence from allies.
He reveals:
• His father is under house arrest with an ankle monitor.
• His wife’s assets were frozen.
• He faces charges for joining my X Space.
• Biden admin funded the very censorship silencing Brazilians.
I saw it firsthand:
When I interviewed Jair, my livestream was blocked in Brazil.
When I interviewed Eduardo, Brazil slapped me - @x and @elonmusk - with a Federal investigation.
Earlier this month, Trump hit Brazil with 50% tariffs over “political persecution” and sanctioned Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
The fight isn’t over - and the world is watching.
