Subject: What’s happening to me in Brazil


We will not be intimidated by these tyrannical attempts to silence
journalists.
------------------------------


I’ve been deeply humbled by the outpouring of support since Brazilian
prosecutors filed a criminal complaint against me in retaliation for our
reporting on the misconduct of senior officials in the Bolsonaro government.

Our legal team is confident that we’ll defeat the baseless accusation that
I committed cybercrimes, the alleged evidence for which the country’s
Federal Police already dismissed once before.

The Bolsonaro government and the movement that supports it has made
repeatedly clear that it does not believe in basic press freedoms, but *we
will not be intimidated by their tyrannical attempts to silence journalists*
.

I am working right now on new reporting and will continue to do so. Many
courageous Brazilians sacrificed their liberty and even lives for Brazilian
democracy and against repression, and I feel an obligation to continue
their noble work.

I’d like to thank the thousands of Intercept readers who’ve expressed their
concern and solidarity over the past few days. It means more than I can
say. *If you’re moved to make an additional donation in this critical
moment, I’d be honored to have your support.
