Polls suggest Bolsonaro, a far-right populist famed for his adulation of Donald Trump.....

And his (Bolsonaro's) quest to remain free of Chinese influence in Brazil. The parallels within the pattern analysis of available entities and methodologies are revealing....but not surprising. 'Regime change' here at home and abroad ?

NPR - According to the court, Positivo Tecnologia, a Brazilian company, won the most recent bid to produce electronic voting machines for this year's election. Smartmatic and Dominion also confirmed their equipment is not being used in Brazil.

NPR reporting on conspiracy theories? Oh, well then ok. I feel better about the process now....but not much better.

#2 I think once you have a nationalist party in, the best thing in this era would be to do away with elections altogether. Let people vote directly on municipal and local matters and not leaders. The leftist oppositions can be pruned to a handful of squeeky voices on teevee and that's it.

No, don't make a face, the Left is doing just this. They're just going to leave you with an appearance of franchise while consolidating right and left into one hive.

#3 If Bolsonaro had commented on elections in the USA what do you think the USA response would have been? Since when is it the CIA's job to publicly approve of elections held throughout the world?

#4 Since when is it the CIA's job to publicly approve of elections held throughout the world?

Since at least 1950.

Neither Truman or Eisenhower could get a fix on what the SOB's were doing with their overseas operations or budget. The Klingon end-state was a deep concern to both. After Kennedy, White House attitudes and concerns were no longer an issue. Once Obama was installed it was a gentle Nordic down-hill.

#5 I think that the CIA tried to use CNN as a mouthpiece for these talking points but now that it isn’t in airports anymore the campaign had no effect.

#6 I think the reason for doubt is because similar to US 2020 election the downstream votes went to Right leaning candidates but somehow the Presidential results skewed Left. Just like against Trump
