<span style="color: #222222;">In Brazil, President Jair Bolsonaro yesterday said, he would pardon federal congressman and ally Daniel Silveira, a day after he was convicted by Brazil's top court. Silveira was sentenced to nearly nine years in prison after a 10-1 ruling by the court on Wednesday.<br />''<br />'' The court established that he had interfered with the 'free exercise' of government and threatened the country's judicial authorities. The court levied a fine equivalent to roughly 41,500 dollar and requested the removal of the former Police Officer's current parliamentary position.<br />''<br />''This comes after Silveira questioned the integrity of several STF Ministers and called on his supporters to invade the court last year. He had also called for the re-institution of an anti-democratic decree that was in place during Brazil's 1964-1985 military dictatorship.</span><br />
