💨 Abstract

Brazil's lower house speaker, Hugo Motta, removed two lawmakers linked to former President Jair Bolsonaro from their seats. Eduardo Bolsonaro, the former president's son, was stripped of his seat for missing over 80% of sessions while living in Texas. Alexandre Ramagem, former head of Brazil's intelligence agency, was also removed following a Supreme Court order. Both are implicated in Bolsonaro's coup attempt case.
