Someone forgot to pack their own supreme court before he left office.

I thought the supreme court just ruled that presidents can do ANYTHING?

…Brazil? Oh.

See Brazil? This is why you need American facism. Your politicians could be doing anything they WANT! Just like ours!

I thought it was Covid but I’m starting to think he always looks like a plague victim in a renaissance painting…

Has the US Supreme Court been reached for comment? I mean, technically, it isn’t in the US Constitution that the Brazillian President isn’t allowed to launder money.

Fascists gonna do their thing. Steal steal steal

As with the legislative removal of former President Collor from office once again Brazil is demonstrating to the U.S. that you can actually enact Democratic policies and enforce legal due process.

Money laundering charges seems like a fantastic money laundering method while in presidency.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Brazil’s former president Jair Bolsonaro faces possible charges for money laundering, embezzlement and criminal association in connection with undeclared diamonds the far-right leader received from Saudi Arabia during his time in office, local media has reported.

Last year, federal police accused Bolsonaro of attempting to sneak in diamond jewelry reportedly worth $3m and selling two luxury watches.

But he surprised analysts with a decisive victory, in no small part due to his self-portrayal as an upstanding citizen in the years following a sprawling corruption probe that ensnared hundreds of politicians and executives.

Last year, Brazil’s top electoral court ruled that Bolsonaro abused his presidential powers during his 2022 re-election bid, which rendered him ineligible for any elections until 2030.

The case focused on a meeting during which Bolsonaro used government staffers, the state television channel and the presidential palace in Brasília to tell foreign ambassadors that the country’s electronic voting system was rigged.

Bolsonaro is expected to meet the Argentinian president, Javier Milei, this weekend at a conservative conference in Balneario Camboriu, in Brazil’s south.
