Brazil vs. the US: Two insurrections, different results #shorts

On January 8, 2023, thousands of supporters of Brazil’s right-wing former President Jair Bolsonaro stormed federal buildings in the country’s capital. Their goal?

So how did two democracies, facing similar threats, end up with such different outcomes? #Brazil #Bolsonaro #Trump #January6 Subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications (🔔) so you don't miss any videos: http://goo.gl/0bsAjO Vox.com is a news website that helps you cut through the noise and understand what's really driving the events in the headlines.
