TL;DR Summary

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro allegedly presented a plan to reverse the 2022 election results, according to court documents. Top military leaders reported the plan to police and said they would arrest Bolsonaro if he proceeded. The documents contain testimony from former commanders of the country’s army and air force, who refused to accept the plan. Bolsonaro has already been ruled ineligible to run for office until 2030 due to spreading false claims about the election, and investigators are also looking into his potential involvement in riots following his election loss.
