Overview

• Jair Bolsonaro's rally at Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach aimed to galvanize support for his political comeback but attracted significantly fewer participants than anticipated.
• The demonstration called for amnesty for Bolsonaro supporters jailed after the January 2023 storming of government buildings in Brasília.
• Bolsonaro, barred from holding office until 2030 due to election-related charges, faces potential legal action for alleged involvement in a coup plot targeting President Lula.
• Despite the low turnout, Bolsonaro's supporters remain hopeful, drawing parallels to Donald Trump's political resurgence in the United States.
• Speculation grows over potential successors within the Brazilian right, as Bolsonaro's influence wanes and legal challenges mount against him.
