Brazil president sacks close aide amid political scandal

Bebianno was key supporter of Bolsonaro in election campaign

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Monday sacked a close aide who helped get him elected, Gustavo Bebianno, after a storm within their ruling PSL party over suspected improper campaign financing. Bolsonaro "has decided to dismiss as of today Gustavo Bebianno as minister of the general secretariat of the presidency," spokesman Otavio do Rego Barros told a news conference in Brazilia.

Brazil is in Bad omen right now. After dam collapses. God does not want Bolsanaro in power aligning with US. Brazil should've stayed neutral on Venezuela issue just like other countries. If you can't tell as a Brazilian than your doomed. Brazil was part of BRICS. This seems like a puppet switch tactic. Brazilians don't even speak Spanish. They have no call on Venezuela to be honest.

If I was president of Brazil, I'd closed the border between Venezuela and Brazil. Aim to fix the country within and stay neutral on the conflict.

To make matters more worse Trump the clown had publicly come out in public supporting Jair Bolsonaro.
