Damn what’s with all these assassination plots this year?
They were arrested this year, but the plot was actually in 2022.
Anyway, last week there has also been a suicide terrorist that tried to kill Alexandre de Moraes (from the Brazilian supreme court) and threatened a bunch of other people. (Turned out he only managed to kill himself.)
This has been a busy time in Brazil.
