Submissive Homeland (2026)

Brazil truly has the "secret sauce," and people from the outside are taking notice. While Trump, in the United States, has his eyes on our mineral wealth, Flávio Bolsonaro—a candidate for the Brazilian presidency—is promising to hand over our rare earth elements in an attempt to win an election. In this episode, we interview General Santos Cruz, a former minister under Jair Bolsonaro, who states: this is not what it means to be right-wing, nor is it patriotic—it is complete submission. Our minerals are strategic, both for us and for the world. The question that remains is: who will own this wealth in the years to come? Will you just sit by while it’s handed over to Trump on a silver platter?
