Brazil’s new Communist president, (Copy/Paste from RAIR Foundation) “the former inmate, socialist Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, more commonly known simply as “Lula,” was recently installed as the President of Brazil with help from Joe Biden-style ballot antics.”
“Lula recently revised the country’s welfare regulations, requiring parents to have their children “vaccinated” with the experimental and dangerous Covid “vaccines.” If parents refuse to inject their children, they will no longer be able to receive any financial aid.” (My emphasis)
“Children six years old and over must have proof of vaccination; otherwise, the mother will lose all government subsidies, stated Lula.”
Brazil’s poverty rate is somewhere around 20%. You’re poor there if you make less than $5.50 a day, and the number of people in poverty is going to vary according to who’s doing the counting, because it’s a political issue. But if you look at the Favelas, the enormous slums surrounding the cities, it’s a lot of people. That 20%, or about 43 million people, get state aid and now they have to get their kids injected with poison if they want to keep getting it.
While there was considerable election fraud involved in making him president of Brazil again, Lula also had a lot of real support from Brazil’s poor, many of whom rely on state aid to survive. Now these same people who made him their dictator again are going to have their children slaughtered by The Jab if they want to keep being supported by the state.
All I can say to that is that those children would grow up to replace their parents as the slum dwellers anyway, so if their votes result in them wiping themselves out, it’s on them. I feel sorry for the children being born into such a life, and it’s not a long one as the average life expectancy in one of these slums is listed as about 48. This is mostly because not many live to see 21.

Lula says Brazil is no more divided than the US as he meets Biden
New York
CNN
—
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said the divisions in his country were no worse than the political split in the United States, in an exclusive CNN interview Friday ahead of his meeting with President Joe Biden at the White House.
“Here there’s also a split, much more, or as serious as Brazil – Democrats and Republicans are very split up. Love it or leave it, that’s more or less what’s going on,” he told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in Washington, adding that Brazil does not have “a hatred culture.”
Both Lula and Biden saw government buildings sacked in the aftermath of their presidential elections by far-right elements that have posed huge tests for their respective democracies.
“Never could we imagine that in a country that was the symbol of democracy in the world – someone could try to invade the Capitol,” he said about the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot in the US.
The similarities between the January 8 attack on Brasilia and the US insurrection include former President Jair Bolsonaro’s close alignment with former US President Donald Trump.
Lula calls Bolsonaro a “faithful copycat of Trump,” saying both men “don’t enjoy trade unions… They don’t like workers, don’t like women. They don’t like Black people.”
Both ex-leaders were repeatedly criticized during their terms for using racist and misogynistic language.
Even so, Lula is not convinced all Bolsonaro supporters are adherents to his views. “I am convinced that not everybody that voted for Bolsonaro follows Bolsonarism,” he said.
After his election loss, Bolsonaro decamped for the United States. He has been living near Orlando, Florida, for more than a month, prompting some Democratic Party lawmakers to call for him to leave the country.
Will Lula ask Biden to help extradite Bolsonaro back to Brazil? “I don’t know, I’m not going to talk about President Biden about that, this will depend on courts,” he replied. “One day he has to come back to Brazil and face all the lawsuits against him.”
Biden talks
Lula’s talks with Biden on Friday are expected to center around combating climate change and tackling anti-democratic extremism.
While Lula believes “democracy will prevail” in Brazil, he worries about about the rise of extreme right groups around the world.
“It’s in Brazil, it’s in Spain, it’s in France, and they are in Hungary, in Germany. We have an organized extreme right in the world and if we’re not careful, this will be a Nazi attitude from there. This is a denial attitude we haven’t seen before,” he said.
He agrees there is much to be done in Brazil about the climate, saying the country’s commitment to “reduce greenhouse emissions” by 39% would have to include rewarding local “mayors and governors, who guarantee no more burning of the forests.”
By extending an early invitation to Lula to visit the White House, Biden hopes to cultivate closer ties and demonstrate his support for one of the Western Hemisphere’s key players.
Biden quickly called Lula following his victory late last year, hoping to demonstrate support after Bolsonaro had laid the groundwork to question the election results. The move was received well among Lula’s officials, who saw it as a sign Biden was looking to restore US-Brazil ties.
They have met previously – when Biden was vice president, he met Lula on the sidelines of a gathering in Chile. But as counterparts, they will look to deepen what has traditionally been a key bilateral relationship in the Western Hemisphere, strained in recent years by the diametrically opposed Biden and Bolsonaro.
While they have much in common, Lula – like many leaders in middle income and developing countries – has adopted a policy of non-intervention over the war in Ukraine.
He has rebuffed efforts led by Biden to unite the global community in opposition to Russia’s invasion.
Speaking to CNN, Lula said that Ukraine had the right to defend itself “because the invasion was a mistake on the part of Russia.”
He explained he refused to provide ammunition to Ukraine because, “I don’t want to go join the war. I want to end the war.”
Lula has sought be a global statesman who could broker a truce between Russia and Ukraine, telling CNN that he has begun this “work” by speaking to the German Chancellor, who visited Brazil in January.
“I want to talk about peace with (Russian President Vladimir) Putin. I want to talk about peace with President Biden, I want to talk about peace with (Chinese leader) Xi Jinping. I want to talk about peace with India, with Indonesia… because for me the world will only develop itself if we have peace,” he said.
Another thing Lula shares with Biden is age. They are both elderly presidents: Biden is 80 years old, while Lula is 77.
When asked about it, Lula said aging only exists for those who don’t have a cause to fight for.
“I am 77 years of age, and … I have the energy and power of someone who is 30 years old,” he said. “I don’t sleep because my home is the Brazilian people – I have to improve the lives of my people.”
