Balanced News: Bolsonaro questions Brazil election defeat, defends tenure

Jair Bolsonaro was elected president of Brazil in October, but he lost the election weeks later after his opponents stormed the seat of his country’s government. Bolsonaro defended his tenure in an appearance in Miami before a conservative group tied to former U.S. President Donald Trump, but he did not directly address the Jan. 8 assault on the buildings housing Brazil’s Congress and Supreme Court during his appearance. Bolsonaro faces legal jeopardy not only from a mushrooming number of investigations into the Jan. 8 uprising but from the country’s supreme court, which has censored websites that have spread what it calls lies about Brazil’s election.
