Is there a link for me to read more. Why is he in power. Didn't someone quit? Why is he "acting" president?

You are asking why a corrupt politician is in power?

I'm not from Brazil though, so I don't know it exact.

 

[Disxo]

OMG, he wasnt on the screen, the booing was because they recognised it!!!

Brazil's undergoing an impeachment/coup d'état.

Name it however you want, haha.

And keep in mind that even those in favor of the impeachment still don't view Temer favorably.

Who wrote these lyrics, the Marx Brothers?

 

[Pedrito]

Only the Russian anthem is more epic than this one (though this version by children is a little bit soft).

The president Rousseff is under a process of impeachment. She is going to be judged by the Senate. Temer is her Vice President. Both are scum.

Its always so shocking to me how similar Brazilian Portuguese sounds to Spanish, especially when it's spoken slowly and all formal like this.

Olympic Magic indeed.

lol the first half of this article is totally biased to save her ass.

 

[Cheat Code]

Is that kid dancing or is he off his head.

 

[mclem]

Is it weird I look forward to the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics more than the actual events?

No. I'm more into sport these days, but when I was younger it was only really the ceremonies that appealed to me, because I loved - and still love - the ideal they embody. A good opening ceremony is... kind of an affirmation that despite our ininherent flaws and mistakes as a species, there's still something there to aspire to.

There's something romantic there that transcends sport.

 

[Dr.Acula]

To NBC-GAF from the future: these opening ceremonies WILL NOT END.

It's still going.

Why? Whyyyyyyyy-

[mclem]

I'm amazed it took so long for the carnival theme to crop up!

 

[R10Neymarfan]

I thought we weren't gonna do stereotypes.

Samba isn't all you have. Though I think this isn't samba

EDIT:Nope it's Samba

 

[spindashing]

yo that kid was pure savagery lmao

 

[Norwegian_Imposter]

It's like they have got the old peoples home to host the olympics. That old guy who had the kid dancing looked like if you asked him his name he wouldn't know it.

Opening ceremony sort of explains it

I know this ceremony hasn't shied away from troublesome topics but bringing out Ali's corpse might be going a bit far.

Just an Impeachment. Not a coup d'etat.
