SUMMARY

Supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro rallied in Sao Paulo for Independence Day, protesting a nationwide ban on Elon Musk's social media platform X. They claim the ban highlights political persecution. Thousands of demonstrators sported Brazil's flag colors and carried banners supporting Musk, saying, "Thank you for defending our freedom."

The ban was ordered by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who accused Bolsonaro's allies of spreading misinformation. Protesters view de Moraes as a "tyrant" and demand his impeachment. Bolsonaro faces legal challenges but continues to publicly oppose the current government's actions.
