Today, the people of Brazil have voted for democracy, workers’ rights and environmental sanity. I congratulate Lula on his hard fought victory and look forward to a strong and prosperous relationship between the United States and Brazil.

“A desperate attempt to clobber our democracy,” Marina Silva, one of Brazil’s most respected politicians, says of today’s police operations
Quote Tweet
A declaração de Bolsonaro de que aceitaria o resultado das urnas não tinha como ser crível. Sua digital para inviabilizar a eleição está nas ações de policiais e militares para impedir acesso de eleitores à votação. Isso tem apenas um nome: desespero em golpear nossa democracia.

🇧🇷🚨This is criminal, extremely serious and worrying. If this reporting is true, Bolsonaro is using federal police forces to suppress votes and turn the tight election in his favor.

Globo is reporting that today's voter suppression efforts by federal police forces were first planned in a meeting of the inner circle of Bolsonaro's campaign in the presidential palace on Oct 19 oglobo.globo.com/blogs/lauro-ja

Urgent - Lula coalition calls for the imprisonment of the head of Brazil's Federal Highway Police. He is accused of disobeying court orders and stopping voters in the [overwhelmingly pro-PT] Northeast from getting to the polls

Multiple reports from across Brazil of state and federal police forces running roadblocks and searches on major roadways today, election day, causing traffic & delays in areas that vote more heavily for Lula. The Superior Electoral Court preemptively blocked such operations.

🗳Inadmissível a ação de policiais (estaduais e federais) para cercear o direito e o deve de votar do povo brasileiro. As denúncias se multiplicam pelo país. PRF, PF, PM são instituições de Estado, não de um governo. Nunca de um governo. @TSEjusbr

One of my favorite things that I did at Fanbyte was the You Love To See It podcast, particularly in my last year of co-hosting with . It was special, it was pretty smart, and my god, was it ever fun.

I still have a job afaik but I don't know who or what Fanbyte is after today. We haven't received any communication from ZAM/Tencent about who is in charge now, what we should be doing, etc. Are you or someone you love in need of a podcast producer? Maybe slide into my DMs?

My jaw is on the floor. I am sorry to see all these amazing people being laid off from Fanbyte today. Please be sure to scoop them up while you can; it’s not often that this kind of talent is available.
