How Brazil Lost Its Freedom of Speech | Paulo Figueiredo Filho

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Paulo Figueiredo Filho about his journey from the business world to journalism; his desire to provide a balanced perspective in Brazilian media; Brazil's political turmoil, including the aftermath of the January 8 riots and the impact of Lula's presidency on the country's economy and individual freedoms; Brazil’s roadmap for stealing elections; Jair Bolsonaro's return to Brazil after a stint in the U.S.; how Bolsonaro faced threats and media mistreatment while abroad; Brazil's rapid changes under Lula's presidency, including increased censorship and attacks on individual freedoms; how the Supreme Court judge Alexandre de Moraes has abused its power to launch investigations into news outlets to censor dissenting voices; Brazil's escalation of censorship; how courts began censoring media to "protect democracy"; how he has faced restrictions, asset freezes, and passport cancellations for his criticism of the Lula government; why he is forbidden from returning to Brazil; how Elon Musk's involvement exposed the issue globally; why Brazil's Twitter status remains uncertain amid legal battles; how Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes used the court to act as investigator, prosecutor, and judge; and much more.
