Publicação – retuitada por Elon Musk – em que Michael Benz, ex-secretário de Donald Trump e influenciador de direita, sugere que o governo dos Estados Unidos teria interferido diretamente no resultado das eleições federais brasileiras de 2022 para favorecer o candidato eleito, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT).
Publisher’s rating: Enganoso
The review says Michael Benz’s post used excerpts from Financial Times and Reuters reports out of context to claim that U.S.-built voting machines were for pro-Lula authorities. It reports that Brazil’s electoral authority said the machines used in the 2022 general elections were manufactured in Brazil by Positivo Tecnologia.
