That's it "Everybody Walk the Plank" now why did I write that (lol/kkk). I live in a wondering mode as it is easier. As I would love to be a fly on the wall for I don't think anyone has enough sense to take a swat or guts to take a swing. The turmoil of this whole process leaves no Hero's only something of a nightmare. It will take years to undo the damage of both administration's. I wonder after the shake out if there will be enough votes to impeach and if both are impeached then who shall lead for I am at odds of anyone who would want to inherit this mess other than the Military and that's a long shot for been there had that. I wonder if the disarray is designed to spoil the Olympics for who would want to come to a country with no President for no one's in charge of anything. There is no honor among? Insert What you like. I've watched 5-6 people of the current administration either resign, retire or be questioned about there shenanigans and this is not pretty as a matter of fact and the facts will be shown. This is Down Right Ugly. The Brazilian people are Beautiful and they do not deserve this Disloyalty. And yes it is a Rant. I wish I could say I'm speechless for I know this is like the commercial says "But Wait There's More". To be continued. .......... :dumbom::thanks::cool:

It seems that the people are not in a revolt status as some other countries to have the OAS to react for the problems in the other country have been festering for years and someone is saying enough is enough. I hope it does not have to reach a state of violence and a body count,economic crisis, looting,starvation,military intervention,lack of utilities  water,sewer,power,unemployment,benefit cutbacks etc . For right now the world is thinking it will iron itself out for it is just a small wave with a wake, so maybe it needs to be a tsunami and then there will be some action. OAS and the UN are just about worthless for there inaction. I found this article today and it maybe is one of the reasons for OAS silence for the phat lady.👄 has not sang yet so let the show go on, what we need is a old vaudeville hook to pull the Bad Actor's off the stage (lol) :/

GD, I've read the article several times and it is fair reporting without mudslinging as it does have its finger on the pulse. Nothing wrong when it leaves one's mind to its own demise as I read from as many articles as I can find on any given day and extract facts as best I can and it is amazing how stories are written to he said,she said and we are left to accept or reject the article. As for me I reject the BS for facts for one can put Lipstick on a Pig and it's still a Pig. Now most involved are in a Pig pen and wallowing in there own? Insert What one likes. And Pete I agree with running out of beer. So I decided to home brew my own with a maybe 5.6 content for most I found in my stay was very weak yet it provided relief from the equatorial Heat for it is getting hot and people get uncomfortable when it's hot.

Brazilian arrests could hinder impeachment process, important votesBy Jill Langlois - Wednesday, June 8, 2016     

Brazil's government is concerned that arrest warrants issued on Tuesday for the country's senate president, lower house speaker, a senator and former president could hinder not only important upcoming votes, but also the impeachment process against suspended president Dilma Rousseff (pictured).

The administration of interim president Michel Temer is particularly worried that the vote on its economic measures, which have already been sent to congress, could be delayed, according to business magazine IstoÉ Dinheiro,.

The report also noted that there will be a parliamentary recess in July, as well as a shift in focus to the Olympics and the elections in August.

While the government is concerned that the arrest warrants will affect Rousseff's impeachment process, it also said it was sure there would be enough votes to remove the suspended president permanently.

Despite its assurance, the administration is anxious about the fact that the attorney general seems to have his eye on the leaders of the PMDB, as their arrests could negatively affect Temer's image and put him at a disadvantage during the impeachment process.
Gets better every day,  all day, toda dia.

I think, a very tall wall should be built, around the Brazilian parliament, with very big gates, and the whole lot of the politicians, should all be locked up. Because the way their going, most of them will in Jail

GB, this is a MSM story for I refuse to label it a article, it has a lot of truth and talk about happenings in the US. I feel it is humorous and enlightening for it is all a game of wait and see how it all plays out. I hated to take the story from the source yet there is some truth on it, and some very believable points. As I said I read Everything the good,the bad and the ugly. Wait that's already been made into a movie!.

I see a few street disturbances occurred the other day, the  voting will start soon and I wonder what moving day will be like for one or the other for someone is going to lose a Palace as a matter of thought it maybe several people occupying the Palace over the next few years, maybe a New Election? for I read all possible 3 successors have problems anybody know who's number four if the country gets past the 3 in line. I wish I was a betting person for I would be broke placing money on this fiasco. This will leave Brasil reeling into 2030?
