Episode description

Marcel van Hattem is a Brazilian Congressman, a leading voice for free speech, and a prominent critic of Lula’s government.


In this explosive interview, we explore Brazil's escalating political crisis, including the suppression of free speech, the fallout from Bolsonaro’s defeat, and the Twitter Files revelations that expose shocking censorship.


Marcel reveals the systemic corruption involving Brazil's Supreme Court, the persecution of political opponents, and Elon Musk’s pivotal role in challenging censorship in the country.


We discuss January 8th—the so-called “coup attempt”—and Marcel opens up about his personal persecution as a federal deputy on the frontlines of Brazil’s battle for democracy.


How did Brazil get here, and what does its plight mean for the rest of the world?


All this and much more...
