A dual-national (Poland) who spreads anti-democratic disinfo and has done work in the U.S. for foreign far-right governments, Tyrmand is tight with the Bolsonaro clan.
He earned a mention in this NYT column.
Far-right American "Stop the Steal" operatives have been in Brazil stoking this kind of violent unrest for months. People allied with Steve Bannon. Like Matthew Tyrmand, who functions as something of an international fascism supereconnector.
Bolsonarista terrorists broke down the police barrier and invaded the Congress ramp and threatened to occupy the chamber and the Senate. The Minister of Justice

announced that he is allowing the use of all federal forces against them.
The SPLC recently got a look at Tyrmand's centrality in this globalized network of extremism, an epicenter of which in the U.S. is now the New York Young Republican Club.

In October 2022, as the unpopular Bolsanaro was losing at the polls, Steve Bannon and Matthew Tyrmand declared on his War Room show (broadcast on Jason Miller's GETTR) that the election was stolen. Now 3 months later, a riot. Same playbook as in the US. 6/
Tyrmand was deeply involved in the Biden smear campaign orchestrated by Bannon and other criminals and anti-democratic activists before the 2020 election.
