Brazil: Leaked Videos Amid Media Blackout Show Massive Protests Over Jair Bolsonaro vs. Lula Election Results

President Jair Bolsonaro discreetly told members of the Supreme Court that the highly contested election "is over," according to local reports. Still, thousands of his supporters packed the streets of Brazil on Wednesday, blocking major roads and demanding that military forces prevent Lula from assuming office, per Al Jazeera.

According to Tommy Robinson, Brazilians are fighting for their freedom against Lula's socialist takeover despite the media blackout, particularly in Rio de Janeiro, where people are calling on the military to save the country.

Meanwhile, Alexandre de Moraes of the Superior Electoral Court tells everyone that the election was fair and that anyone who protests the results is breaking the law and will be prosecuted.

Thousands of Brazilians Cannot Accept Brazil Election Results

Protesters in Brazil's capital continue to block the streets in favor of President Jair Bolsonaro, and they have now requested military assistance, Dessert News noted.

Bolsonaro has called on his supporters to lift the blockades obstructing the economy's operation in response to their continuous demonstrations over the Brazil election results.

The government has also claimed to have cleared 732 barricades, even though numerous highways remain closed.

The blockades have been more visible in locations where Jair Bolsonaro supporters are concentrated, such as Santa Catarina and Mato Grosso.

Despite Bolsonaro's efforts to give over control to the new president, Lula, demonstrators took a step further on Wednesday, asking the military for assistance in keeping Bolsonaro in office. However, the military has not done anything to help the protesting people.

"In a democracy, the armed forces do not have a say in the electoral process," Eduardo Mun hoz Svartman, president of the Brazilian Association of Defense Studies, said. "This silence is desirable."

Meanwhile, protest videos are all over Twitter while local media remain silent.

According to ONFALL, Brazilian police are shooting at protesters and members of the Indian community. "Brazil is in chaos, it's almost a civil war."

Another video was taken from military footage showing a sea of people protesting in front of the military headquarters.

Other videos were posted, including a video where a governor supporting Lula sent police to an allegedly peaceful protest and gassed them.

Brazil Is Still in the Middle of a Power Change

According to the Associated Press, despite the conservative leader's delay in admitting defeat, Bolsonaro has finally indicated that he will step down and allow the authority to be transferred.

"I know you are upset... Me too. But we have to keep our heads straight," he said in a Twitter post. "I will make an appeal to you: clear the highways."

ABC News said that despite Jair Bolsonaro's words, other conservative leaders and military groups had supported the newly elected president to avoid a repeat of January 6 uprising after the U.S. presidential election in 2020.

"All of Bolsonaro's escape valves were shut off," said Brian Winter, an expert on Brazil and vice president of the New York-based Council of the Americas. "He was prevailed upon from all sides not to contest the results and burn down the house on his way out."
