The district's newest representative, Boebert, is an unabashed, social media-savvy loyalist of former President Donald Trump who, like her fellow first-term colleague GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, is stoking controversy with her far-right views and defiant actions. But unlike Greene, Boebert doesn't hail from an overwhelmingly GOP, safe district.

In Brasile si è acceso il dibattito sulla proprietà privata di armi, dopo che il presidente Jair Bolsonaro ha emesso decreti per allentare le restrizioni al diritto dei privati cittadini di comprare e possedere fucili e pistole.

La maggior parte dei brasiliani, in realtà, è favorevole a leggi severe contro il possesso di armi, ma una forte minoranza insiste invece che il diritto ad armarsi dovrebbe essere esteso per la protezione personale e l’uso privato.

Come negli Stati Uniti, l’industria delle armi preme per la liberalizzazione, nonostante il Paese sudamericano abbia già un altissimo tasso di violenza. (AP Photo / Andre Penner)
