Trump’s 50% tariff on Brazil backfired on Bolsonaro
The organised working class and the entire progressive sector of the population eagerly awaited Bolsonaro’s arrest, which finally happened on Monday 4th of August when Moraes charged him with defying court orders after he appeared at rallies called by his supporters.
