Brazil is to be renamed Bramerica after Lula is brought to the US to face a trial for sponsoring fishing boats. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
BREAKING: In an unprecedented comeback, Brazil's President Lula da Silva has defeated Flavio Bolsonaro, securing a 4th term in office.
Lula is officially the first presidential candidate in Brazil's modern democratic history to lose the first round of voting and go on to win the runoff.
Prior to the election, Lula's implied odds of victory had fallen as low as 10%.
This marks one of the most remarkable political comebacks in Brazil's history.

Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a vocal critic of U.S. President Donald Trump, was reelected Sunday.
His opponent Flávio Bolsonaro refused to concede defeat and asked for the election results to be annulled due to a last-minute decision extended voting by two hours.
Anyone in official #Denmark wants to say anything definitive?

BREAKING: The average cost of a family’s annual health insurance premium in the US is up +$1,303 YoY, or +5%, to a record $28,303.
This marks the 4th consecutive annual increase of at least +$1,300.
Over this period, the average annual premium for family coverage has surged +$5,884, or +26%.
To put this into perspective, CPI inflation has risen +13% over the same period, or half as much.
Since 1999, the average health insurance premium for a family has soared +$22,494, or +387%.
This represents an average annual growth rate of +6.1%, well above CPI inflation at +2.6% over the same period.
Health insurance has never been more expensive.

Fundamentally, the Far Right today is largely the Far Left and vice versa. Neither is capable of any fiscal discipline, and both operate on "Let's find some scapegoats to blame for market/government/cultural/social failures".
For all the hand wringing about the ‘far right’, it turns out the far left is a real danger to society. This week’s @Independent_ie column

+ protections of freedoms & liberties of minorities, only to deny these same freedoms & liberties to the groups (including minority groups) they object to. Great example here is the constrained space of intellectual debates within the FL, the 'cancel culture', the 'DEI ethos' +
Congratulations, MAGA. Your hero just told you 'they' are making money off your misery. A 'freaking fortune'.
