Lula to be sworn in as Brazil president
as Bolsonaro flies to USA


[Crowds of people have gathered in the
Brazilian capital, Brasilia,
for the inauguration of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva
as president.
The veteran left-wing politician, known
widely as Lula, also led the country between
2003 and 2010 - and defeated Jair Bolsonaro
in October's poll.

There is tight security for Sunday's ceremony
amid fears that Bolsonaro supporters
may try to disrupt it.

Mr Bolsonaro himself will not attend,
having left Brazil on Friday.

A sea of Lula supporters gathered
in front of Congress since early in
the morning - decked out in the
red colour of his Workers' Party.
They travelled to see their leader
sworn in - but also for a celebration.]

The BBC making out the right wing crowd are terrorists. Who'd have thunk it?

They could tell you anything they like and you'd take their word for it. That's how they control you.

So the alerts of bombs are coming from the mouths of Mainstream media and nobody else?

Where are they getting their Intel from to give out these alerts in advance? Or are they just making it up to make a story because that's how the make their money?

[Alf]

Thanks to these claims by the media. Lula and the left are the good guys who everyone should support and Bolsonaro and the right are the baddies who everyone should detest.

The media has already made your minds up for you. And nothing has even happened yet.

Ever get the feeling you're being cheated?
