My theory on the Brazil election with Lula "winning." While there is likely to be CIA fuckery about, I think there is more to it than just wanting to have a leftist puppet. Brazil is currently part of BRICS, which is a threat to the current American-Euro-faggot empire. Brazil itself is not a huge threat, but banded with Russia, China, and India, it is a threat.
Perhaps the deal the CIA has for fortifying the election is having Lula turning BRICS into RICS, thus lessening the overall threat.
