It's called the NDI, which plays a major role in the Brazil censorship situation.

They created this network called the D4D, Design for Democracy in Brazil, where they sprawled into a spider web dozens of these high-level censorship groups

thought leaders, advocates, activists, legal scholars, again, this is backed by a CIA cutout, in order to get these censorship laws passed and provide the political and media support for them to take the heavy-handed action that they did.

And again, just to put a button on some of this, because we can go a lot deeper into this,

But if folks recall, just ahead of the 2022 election, where Bolsonaro lost in a razor-close, nail-biter election, very similar to our own in the 2020 cycle, all three, all three wings of the blob

The State Department, the CIA, and the Pentagon all went down to Brazil to intermediate that election.

The State Department pulled strings to Taiwan Semiconductor to stop giving semiconductor supplies, stop prioritizing the United States, and give those supplies to Brazil so that essentially Brazilian election officials could use three to four times more voting machines than they'd ever used.

Bolsonaro said, I don't trust these voting machines.

The State Department had just spent U.S.

taxpayer dollars and deprioritized our access to semiconductors during a semiconductor crisis shortfall to give it to a foreign country so that they could have electronic voting machines for their election.

Why is that in U.S.

national interest?

Why should truck drivers making 50K a year have to pay their income tax for electronic voting machines that the Brazilians didn't even ask for?

Then Bill Burns, the CIA director, went down and personally threatened Bolsonaro not to, quote, cast doubt on the electronic voting machines that the State Department had just rammed down their throat.

And then Lloyd Austin, the head of the Pentagon, went down to Brazil to talk to the Brazilian military to say, if there's a disputed election result, don't you dare side with Bolsonaro because there'll be military repercussions.

Much of your Brazilian military supplies and infrastructure and training comes from the U.S.

?

So that was just at the technical level of the election.

What I'm describing is all the censorship that went into that and that happened in the aftermath as part of this transitional justice campaign to stop Bolsonaro's reemergence.

Who is the head of all of this?
