Bolsonaro's Anxious Reactions During Cid's Testimony Captivate Brazil

Jair Bolsonaro's reactions during Mauro Cid's testimony in the ongoing trial regarding the alleged coup attempt have captivated the nation. Cid, described as a key figure in the 'crucial nucleus' of the plot, began his testimony on June 9th, 2025. The video shows Bolsonaro appearing visibly anxious and concerned throughout the proceedings. One observer noted, "His expressions spoke volumes. It was clear he was deeply affected by the testimony." Bolsonaro, the sixth of eight defendants to testify, was seen fidgeting and at times covering his face. The court has imposed strict communication restrictions on the defendants, forbidding them from interacting except for brief greetings. The trial is expected to continue until Friday, June 13th, 2025. The outcome of this trial will undoubtedly have far-reaching consequences for Brazilian politics.
