Bolsides parliamentarians expanded this weekend the international offensive against critics of former President Jair Bolsonaro and current US President Donald Trump.
Deputy Gustavo Gayer (PL-GO) published in his social networks a message directed to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice-Secretary Christopher Landau, in which he calls attention to actor Wagner Moura, who currently lives in Los Angeles.
In the post, Gayer stated that the artist would be “supporting Moraes, attacking Trump and saying that the US is now a dictatorship.” In an ironic tone, he added: “I think it’s worth a look at this extremist.”

The deputy shared an interview of the actor to BBC Brazilin which Moura stated that the Americans would be “envy” from Brazil for the trial they led to 27 years in prison.
Offensive
The movement was not restricted to Wagner Moura. Deputy Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) also used his social networks to mark US officials, suggesting that the country evaluate the cancellation of visas of Brazilian-critical Brazilian influencers, such as Whindersson Nunes and Pedro certainties.
The initiative is part of a broader strategy of scholarship sectors to mobilize republican allies in the US Congress, seeking to frame opponents in Brazil as “extremists” and press for diplomatic retaliation.
