Quick Glance: Brazil's flamboyant President Bolsonaro remains silent after election defeat
- Bolsonaro, on the other hand, delayed more than a month to congratulate Biden on his 2020 triumph over Trump.
- Bolsonaro, like Trump, could face legal problems.
- An independent political expert, Thomas Traumann, linked the situation to Biden's victory: Da Silva, like the president of the United States, inherits a very divided country.
- "We faced the machine of the Brazilian state put at his service so we could not win the election," da Silva told the crowd in Sao Paulo during his victory speech.

Quick Glance: Trump, Johnson, and now Bolsonaro are all gone.
- What is astonishing in Brazil is how quickly public discourse was turned upside down in the world's fifth-largest democracy.
- He later deleted the tweet without apologizing or explaining himself, implying that his adherence to truth and "absolutist free speech" may not be that absolute.
- Lula's victory last Saturday was far from certain; he won by less than 2%.
- There's also the reality that when Brazil was on its knees, a very bizarre alliance of anyone-but-Bolsonaro bedfellows banded together under Lula.

Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order
- Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

- Judges emphasize the importance of upholding justice by addressing threats and ensuring the safety of those involved in legal proceedings. The credibility of the trial hinges on maintaining a fair and secure environment.
