Brazil’s supreme court sentences Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years for plotting military coup – video

The presumptive ruling makes Bolsonaro the first former president in the country’s history to be convicted of attacking democracy

Across the planet, decades of progress towards a healthier planet is being threatened by a global resistance in the form of far-right politicians and governments, fossil fuel influence and corporations empowered by the political winds to roll back their green pledges.
A growing lobby of economic and political denial has been empowered by a US administration that has declared war on climate progress and wider environmental protections.
One powerful way to do that is by funding strong, independent journalism that can help stand up to this tide.
The Guardian doesn’t bow to political pressure and we don’t take advertising from fossil fuel companies. Our work is funded by readers just like you. For our annual environment support campaign, we are asking 40,000 readers to back our journalism with a one-off or recurring amount.

Trump to meet with top congressional leaders as a government shutdown looms

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump will meet with the top four congressional leaders at the White House on Monday as the clock draws nearer to a potential government shutdown, one White House and four congressional officials told NBC News.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., along with House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., are expected to attend.
The development comes after Trump abruptly canceled a planned meeting with Democratic leaders on Thursday, at the urging of Johnson and Thune. The president at the time called Democratic demands “unserious and ridiculous.”
Since then, Jeffries and Schumer have been trading very public barbs with Trump over the looming government shutdown and Democrats’ demands to attach health care policies to the temporary funding bill.
Jeffries and Schumer issued a joint statement Saturday evening.
“President Trump has once again agreed to a meeting in the Oval Office,” the Democratic leaders said. “As we have repeatedly said, Democrats will meet anywhere, at any time and with anyone to negotiate a bipartisan spending agreement that meets the needs of the American people. We are resolute in our determination to avoid a government shutdown and address the Republican healthcare crisis. Time is running out.”
