Hasn't that communist gotten in trouble in the past for trying to censor the press? I recall that happening during the carwash scandal where Lula and his cronies took billions in bribes.
That's so very 'Murica, where war criminals retire to take up painting or get their own Netflix show and the person who exposed their war crimes is thrown in jail.

I wouldnt prosecute Assange or Snowden. Snowden did us a service by exposing the bullshit that the NSA does. He's a whistle blower IMO.
