Supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro have held huge street protests.
Bolsonaro is facing legal charges, accused of plotting a coup after his election loss in 2022.
He could face up to 40 years in prison, but he’s had a powerful ally in US President Donald Trump, who’s called for the charges to be thrown out.
He’s even imposed 50 percent tariffs on Brazilian goods – a move he’s said is directly related to Bolsonaro’s legal case.
