The former president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, has been sentenced to 27 years and three months in prison after being found guilty of plotting a military coup.
A panel of five Supreme Court justices handed down the sentence just hours after they had convicted the former leader.
They ruled he was guilty of leading a conspiracy aimed at keeping him in power after he lost the 2022 election to his left-wing rival, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
And the judges didn’t bend for the US sanctions. I hope this becomes an example for the world.
That was an absolutely fucking admirable sight to behold. So fucking happy they didn’t cave, and told the regime to eat shit and fuck off.
