Trump imposes 50% tariffs on Brazil, citing trial of ally Bolsonaro

Brazil's former president Jair Bolsonaro is on trial for allegedly plotting a coup to stay in power after losing the 2022 election to leftist Lula, which Trump has deemed a 'witch hunt.' Prosecutors say the plot included a plan to arrest and even assassinate Lula, his vice president Geraldo Alckmin, and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
