Previously unknown details of the January 5 Lindell-Bolsonaro meeting may establish links between Trump's inner circle and the January 6 insurrection and Capitol assault.
Seth-- Is there anyway to send you information via email or ??? I was a Biden research volunteer who began tracking Ali's efforts to sink Biden over the summer & may have info that you would find helpful
Seth, This is just stunning meta-journalism: "...Trump could use paramilitaries composed of former military veterans and police officers to institute martial law in America; .... when Lindell attended the January 5 Trump International Hotel meeting—he was with a scion of a Brazilian family that ... is internationally known for its “close ties to notorious paramilitary gangs”, ... “closely linked to mafiosos, death squads, and murder.”
What a web these people weave! Is there anyone connected to Trump and his family who doesn't seem to have a possible nefarious or illegal relationship or motive? I hope the authorities know about all of this and can do something to bring justice to those accountable for 1/6. The Senate hearings were so incomplete and frustrating.
Eduardo Bolsonaro was in CPAC conference (in Washington DC) twice, Bangerter probably was there too. Eduardo recorded a video on the occasion telling that he made good contacts in the US. If you need any info about Bolsonaro's directly from Brazil, let me know. I cover the government everyday.
The Idaho & Utah LDS factor should also not be underestimated with Beck's Bangeters etc. SE Idaho Mormon population runs 60-80%-- the Church holds tremendous power in community & government here. (There is close to zero separation of church & state)
I would also hazard a guess that Ammon Bundy and "Ammons Army" are wrapped up in this somehow behind the scenes
MOTIVE: For a decade or more, authoritarian populists around the globe had won one upset victory after another. They rose to power in India, Brazil, Philippines, United States, Russia, [Ukraine], China, Belarus, Venezuela, Indonesia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Myanmar, Uganda.
MOTIVE: Donald Trump and Daniel Beck obviously planned to make $$$ with the NRA selling weapons to all the neo-Nazi militias after "the storm" massacre.
Jair Bolsonaro’s latest efforts to make guns more easily available to Brazilians have sparked anger and trepidation with some calling the moves a threat to the South American country’s young democracy. ...increase the number of firearms and the amount of ammunition citizens can legally buy and make such weapons easier to acquire, stripping back federal police and army oversight of gun ownership. Hunters can now buy 30 guns each and sports shooters up to 60.
Congressman called Bolsonaro’s actions “a threat to democracy”. “Bolsonaro doesn’t want an armed society because he believes individual rights should be above whatever else ... He wants to undermine our institutions so you have a society where a coup d’état can be carried out with guns. What’s happening is extremely serious.”
“I’m very worried because these decrees have already allowed for an immense amount of guns and ammunition – and much higher calibre guns – to be bought.”
Great work. Thanks for all your analysis and curating. Send it all to the FBI.

Lindell was trying to place a pillow over the face of Democracy! These goons must be held accountable!
Outstanding work as usual Seth.
These are frightening revelations. Excellent work.
P.S. Seth, as always, thanks for your efforts to keep us informed.
Of all people Trump picks to help overthrow the government, he picked Lindell. I wonder why.
Awesome work! Incredible analysis.
