Brazil's Bolsonaro hospitalized with bacterial pneumonia

Aww. And just yesterday I'd read that Trump wanted to send one of his lackeys to visit Bolsonaro in jail. What an unexpected development.

Brazil's Bolsonaro hospitalized with bacterial pneumonia - UPI

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was hospitalized Friday in Brasilia after doctors diagnosed a bacterial lung infection, authorities said, marking the latest health episode for the 70-year-old who is currently serving a prison sentence.

Bolsonaro was admitted to the DF Star hospital with fever, vomiting and low oxygen levels. Doctors later confirmed a case of bacterial pneumonia and began treatment with intravenous antibiotics while keeping him under medical observation.

The former president was transferred to the hospital from detention. Since January, he has been held in the officers' wing of the 19th Military Police Battalion, known as "Papudinha," in Brasilia, where he is serving a sentence of 27 years, three months in prison for an attempted coup.

instigate insurrection to keep themselves in power after losing in a democratic election. A lesson for America, albeit 5 years too late.

NOT that I'm promoting, suggesting, advocating, or hoping for such a nefariously and criminally underhanded development.

Because that'd be just as bad as blowing alleged drug smugglers out of the water, or dropping bombs on a girl's school, or killing a world relief program, causing the deaths of over half a million children - then dancing about it in virtual reality...

ALMOST.
