Bolsonaro’s 27-Year Jail Party: Plotting Coups Like It’s 1999
Brazil’s presidential ex-boss Jair Bolsonaro just earned a 27-year bedtime sentence for masterminding a 2022 coup attempt, because why peacefully accept elections when you can storm palaces? Four out of five Supreme Court judges served this legal roast, leaving one poor holdout to reminisce about acquittals. Meanwhile, Trump — ever the supportive bromance — demanded Brazil stop the charges, threatening a 50% tariff like it’s WWE SmackDown in trade form. Bolsonaro, 70 and denying the whole spicy affair, is probably calculating his appeal letter as he dodges a life sentence sequel. Brazil’s justice system clearly doesn’t do subtle.

Plot twist: Bolsonaro tried a 2022 coup, got 27 years, and Trump’s playing tariff tough guy but ghosting sanctions. Brazil’s Supreme Court just said 'No coup, no crown,' and honestly, it’s the most action since Jan 8, 2023's palace party crash.
If Bolsonaro’s life were a Netflix series, episode 2025 would be 'How To Lose 27 Years In One Coup Attempt.' Spoiler: It doesn’t get picked up for season two.
Trump calling out Brazil like it’s a bad Tinder date who didn’t swipe right on his tariff threats — only to ghost when asked about sanctions. Classic bromance gone political.
