Rioters Take Over Brazilian Congress & Supreme Court!

In what many are referring to as a “replay” of the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol Building, supporters of ousted Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro invaded and vandalized the country’s Supreme Court building and other government locations in the capital of Brasilia before military units moved in and made hundreds of arrests. Newly elected President Lula has promised a serious response to this outbreak of lawlessness and destruction. Guest host Aaron Maté speaks with Latin America-based reporters Michael Fox and Camila Escalante about the fallout from this early assault on Lula’s presidency.
