A post about Brazil that’s not about Mardi Gras

There are a lot of clowns in Congress, but in Brazil, they literally have a clown. Francisco Everardo Oliveira Silva, who was recently elected to the Brazilian Congress, is apparently a famous clown over there.

And, on his first vote, he messed up. He had pledged to support a measure greatly increasing the minimum wage, but hit the wrong button. However, everything was OK, because he honked his nose a couple times and hopped in a car with 20 of this friends.
