Democracies around the world are under attack, as authoritarian leaders sow doubt about the electoral process and discontent with other democratic institutions. In Brazil, thousands of followers of former president Jair Bolsonaro stormed the country's capital in January, aiming to remove the new president from power.

Alexandre De Moraes has ordered the pretrial detention of hundreds of rioters and the suspension of social media counts en masse.
