I think it was a result of fanaticism which generates overconfidence. These fascists are fanatics. Part of the plan was to literally kidnap and assassinate Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. A lot of people were brainwashed from social media into believing kind of QAnon type conspiracy theories by these far right wing actors within the military and business elites.

Today's episode features an interview with This Is Hell! regular Brian Mier. Brian updates Chuck on what the US corporate media has been getting wrong about Brazil. We also have the second of a two-part Moment of Truth from Jeff Dorchen.

Brian Mier is a Chicagoan who immigrated to Brazil in the 1990s. He is a sociologist and geographer. He is also Brazil Correspondent for TeleSur English, co-host of Globalistas on TV 247, Brasilwire, FAIR, COHA, Truthdig, Geopolitical Economy Report, Carta Capital, Outras Palavras.
