Brazil's Hardcore Leftist President Suspended For Lying About State of Economy During Reelection Campaign; Will Face Trial In Senate

So a socialist president lied about the economy in order to be reelected?

Imagine that.

We're lucky that couldn't happen here. That kind of thing only happens in third world communist hellholes.

Meanwhile, the country isn't just in the midst of its worst recession in 100 years (which President Rousslef covered up), but also in the midst of a major Zika virus epidemic which is, get this, also being covered up.

People are calling for the Olympics to be delayed or moved to a different venue.
