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: Agents examine the residence of a Trump-era Justice Department official
  • The cause for the search at Jeffrey Clark's residence was not immediately evident, and it was unclear what information investigators were looking for.

  • Clark's actions at the Justice Department, particularly his support for Trump's voter fraud charges, are expected to be a focus of Thursday's House hearing on the incident.

  • Trump yielded only when several senior Justice Department officials threatened to leave if he went ahead with his plan to replace Rosen with Clark.
