to anyone still confused as to why brazilians would be worried about the US meddling with their politics, here's the first paragraph of the wikipedia page for the military dictatorship in Brazil.

The military dictatorship in Brazil, sometimes called the Fifth Brazilian Republic, was established on 1 April 1964, after a coup d'état by the Brazilian Armed Forces with support from the United States government against President João Goulart. It lasted 21 years, until 15 March 1985.
