Bolsonaro supporters have blocked 270 federal highways in Brazil (+many others smaller roads), and yesterday they blocked the main entry to our biggest airport (some flights were cancelled). Police initially did nothing, but now is stopping the protesters.

Meanwhile, there was a Whatsapp rumour among Bolso fans that the election was a fraud and he was reelected, leading to insane moments like this:

Same here, the only road in and out of the city has been blocked since yesterday. Luckily one doesn't need it when staying within the city, but being egocentric for a bit here: personally I do want to get to the airport next week (Thursday, still time) :p

Bolso finally did a speech... a 2-minute speech. Didn't mentioned Lula, thanked his voters and briefly critized the left-wing in Brazil.

 

He plans to travel by the end of the year and won't be present at Lula's inauguration (which would be the first president to do so since the end of military dictatorship 37 years ago).

Maurren Maggi, 2008 Olympic champion, is participating in the protests with Bolsonaro supporters against election results.

 

If one day I rooted for this woman, I deeply regret it now.
