The deal will give Brazilian fans free-to-air live access to 15 of the 24 races while the remainder will be on Globo's pay channel, sportv. No financial details were given. With 20-year-old Sauber rookie Gabriel Bortoleto, last year's Formula Two champion, Brazil has a full-time Formula One driver on the grid this season for the first time since Felipe Massa retired in 2017.

5 unhinged Donald Trump moments as he tells Republicans to defund Elmo or else
Donald Trump flew to Texas today to take a first hand look at the catastrophic flooding that has killed 120 people. Meanwhile, the White House has been publishing superhero memes featuring AI representations of the President, which is totally normal behaviour. Trump is essentially trying to pressure Brazil into overturning an election result with tariffs. Yep, all fine. Totally fine. And people in Florida's Alligator migrant camp are complaining that the conditions there are... well exactly as you'd expect them to be for a few tents on a strip of tarmac in the middle of a swamp. Here's everything that's happened in Trumpworld in the last day or so that you need to know about. Everything is fine. Is it absurd? Is it insane? No, it's the official White House Twitter account posting an AI picture of Donald Trump as Superman. This is not normal. Late on Wednesday Trump vowed to slap tariffs of 50% on Brazil. Which by itself is nuts, but considering how much he's been banging on about how the BRICS nations (the B stands for Brazil) are ripping the US off, it's hardly surprising. There is a slightly more troubling undertone to it though. Trump is a great fan of Brazil's former president, Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently facing a criminal trial for trying to overturn his election defeat. Trump said earlier this week that Brazil should drop the case or face tariffs on its imports into the U.S. 'I know the honest ones, and I know the crooked ones,' Trump told reporters at the White House as he defended Bolsonaro. Trump added that 'he loved the people of Brazil.' Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a legitimately elected leader of a nation whom Trump is effectively trying to overthrow, says he'll only call Trump, when they have a reason to speak. "I sent a letter congratulating Trump for his victory. I don't have to speak to Trump, there's no reason. I thought I would meet Trump at the G7 meeting, but he had already left when we arrived. Whenever I need to speak to Trump, I have no problem calling him. As I have called (Bill) Clinton, (George W. Bush), (Barack) Obama and (Joe) Biden," Lula said in an interview to TV Globo that aired Thursday night. "Two presidents do not call each other to tell jokes. He could have called Brazil to speak about the measure he was going to take, but he didn't send any letter. He published it on his website, a total disrespect," the Brazilian leader added. Trump may have passed his spending bill last week, but he still needs to get another bill through if he wants to de-fund a bunch of the stuff he hates. And boy oh boy does he hate public broadcasters NPR and PBS. NPR, for those who don't know, basically invented good podcasts. And PBS? Well. PBS has been the home of Sesame Street since 1969 (Kind of. Netflix gets the episodes first these days). And it's where people in the US of A can watch Downton Abbey and Doctor Who. Anyway, Trump hates both of them because they report the news factually, so he's gone out of his way to threaten every Republican to vote for it or else he'll cut them loose come the midterms. He wrote on Truth Social: "It is very important that all Republicans adhere to my Recissions Bill, and in particular, DEFUND THE COPRORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING (PBS and NPR), which is worse than CNN and MSDNC put together. "Anyone that votes to allow this monstrosity to continue broadcasting will not have my support or endorsement." * I feel I should note that due to the way Sesame Workshop is structured, PBS doesn't actually pay anything for Sesame Street. But while Trump is not strictly-speaking trying to defund Elmo, he is trying to defund American kids' ability to watch Elmo for free. Thankyou for your indulgence. A confrontation erupted on Thursday between protesters and federal officials carrying out a raid on a Southern California farm, with authorities throwing canisters that sprayed what looked like smoke into the air to disperse the crowd. Vehicles from Border Patrol and US Customs and Border Protection blocked the road in a largely agricultural area of Camarillo lined with fields and greenhouses. There were military-style vehicles and a helicopter flying overhead. Television images showed dozens of demonstrators gathered on a road between fields where uniformed officers stood in a line across from them. In other images, white and green smoke can be seen as protesters retreat. Other images showed protesters shouting at agents wearing camouflage gear, helmets and gas masks. It wasn't clear why the authorities threw the canisters or if they released chemicals like tear gas. Another image from KTLA showed people sat against a wall with their hands bound in front of them; it wasn't clear if they were workers or protesters. A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security said they were executing a warrant at a marijuana facility. Glass House Farms said on social media that it was visited Thursday by officials for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and 'fully complied with agent search warrants.' It's legal to grow and sell cannabis in California with proper licensing. State records show the company has multiple active licenses to cultivate cannabis. Inmates at Alligator Alcatraz are perhaps starting to think the Alligator-filled swamp might be a preferable option. Worms in the food. Toilets that don't flush, flooding floors with fecal waste. Days without a shower or prescription medicine. Mosquitoes and insects everywhere. Lights on all night. Air conditioners that suddenly shut off in the tropical heat. Detainees forced to use recorded phone lines to speak with their lawyers and loved ones. Just days after Trump visited the detainee camp in the Florida Everglades, these are just some of the conditions described by people held there. "These are human beings who have inherent rights, and they have a right to dignity," said immigration attorney Josephine Arroyo. "And they're violating a lot of their rights by putting them there." Government officials have adamantly disputed the conditions described by detainees, their attorneys and family members, but have provided few details, and have denied access to the media. A televised tour for **Trump** and DeSantis showed rows of chain-link cages, each containing dozens of bunkbeds, under large white tents. "The reporting on the conditions in the facility is completely false. The facility meets all required standards and is in good working order," said Stephanie Hartman, a spokesperson for the Florida Division of Emergency Management, which built the center. A group of Democratic lawmakers sued the DeSantis administrationfor access. They're getting a site visit tomorrow. Follow our Mirror Politics account on Bluesky here.

Last words of pilot before plane with mystery passenger on board crashes
A chilling four-word plea was the final message from a pilot before his plane nosedived, trailing black smoke and claiming the lives of all 62 people on board. The tragic incident unfolded in Brazil last August when a commercial aircraft plummeted to the ground, with the black box later revealing the harrowing last exchanges between pilot Danilo Santos Romano and co-pilot Humberto de Campos Alencar e Silva. The pair were the first to be identified following the crash, with Humberto's haunting query to Danilo, "What's going on?", marking their final moments. Humberto also reportedly called for "more power", as per local broadcaster Globo. However, Cenipa, Brazil's agency for aviation accident investigation, has not made any statements regarding the content of TV Globo's report. The ill-fated Voepass Airlines flight, an ATR-72 turboprop, was en route to Sao Paulo from Cascavel in Parana state when it met its end at approximately 1.30pm in Vinhedo. Eyewitnesses watched in horror as the aircraft spiralled out of control, crashing into trees and erupting in a billow of black smoke. Further adding to the mystery, it emerged that there was an unaccounted-for passenger aboard the flight, reports the Mirror US. Initially, Voepass reported 57 passengers and four crew members were on the flight; however, it was later confirmed that an additional person unlisted on the manifest was also present, raising the death toll to 62. The oversight regarding the extra passenger remains unexplained. Weather experts reported severe icing conditions in Sao Paulo state around the time of the tragic crash. The aircraft was operating normally until 1.21pm, after which it ceased responding to calls and radar contact was lost at 1.22pm, according to a statement from Brazil's air force. No emergency was reported by the plane. Brazilian aviation engineer and crash investigator, Celso Faria de Souza, expressed near certainty that ice was the cause of the accident. ATR-72 aircraft have had previous encounters with icing issues, including a devastating crash in Indiana in 1994 where 68 people lost their lives due to the plane's inability to bank because of ice accumulation. Following that incident, the manufacturer ATR enhanced its de-icing system. In 2016, an ATR-72 in Norway experienced difficulties due to ice build-up on the plane, but the pilot managed to regain control. Firefighter Maycon Cristo explained that authorities used seat assignments, physical characteristics, documents, and personal belongings such as mobile phones to identify the victims. The youngest passenger who perished in the crash was three year old Liz Ibba dos Santos, who was travelling with her father. Josgleidys Gonzalez, 29, her four year old son Joslan, her mother Maria Gladys Parra, and their six-month-old dog Luna also tragically died on Voepass Flight 2283. The bodies were taken to Sao Paulo's morgue, which sadly had to request victims' relatives to provide medical, X-ray, and dental records to assist in identifying the bodies. Blood tests were also conducted to aid identification efforts. Four academics from Unioeste university in western Paraná tragically lost their lives. The crash also claimed the lives of eight cancer specialists. Six esteemed oncologists and two resident doctors, nearing the end of their training, were en route from Cascavel to a cancer symposium in Sao Paulo when the VoePass Airline's ATR 72-500 aircraft met with disaster on Friday. Eduardo Baptistella from the Regional Medical Council shared the heartbreaking update: "Unfortunately we received very sad news and were able to confirm the death of eight doctors. The doctors were going to an oncology conference. These were people who dedicated their lives to saving others." Among the deceased doctors were radiologist Leonel Ferreira, paediatric cancer specialist Sarah Stella, and Silvia Osaki. Baptistella revealed although 15 doctors were originally booked for the flight, seven had opted for an earlier one. Arianne Risso was one of the devoted doctors, tirelessly aiding her patients in their fight against cancer. Her cousin, Stephany Albuquerque, reminisced that even as a child, Risso aspired to be a doctor, later dedicating herself to her studies so intensely that she seldom left home. Risso compassionately cared for terminally ill patients and "did everything with a lot of love," Albuquerque recounted to AP over the phone from Florida, where she currently resides. "She wasn't the kind of doctor who would tell the patient, 'this is your illness, take this.' No, Arianne took care of people. ... She would give out her personal phone number to patients." Risso, 34, was flying with her colleague Mariana Belim, 31. The two had been in residencies at Cascavel's cancer hospital, and a statement from the institution praised them for the conscientiousness, care and respect with which they treated their patients. "It's no wonder that praise for them both would often reach us. Their love of the profession was very clear," the hospital said. Willian Rodrigo Feistler, a general practitioner who grew up in Cascavel, knew six people who died in the crash and was particularly close to Belim, with whom he studied and had maintained a 15-year friendship. "Mariana was serene with a melancholic temperament, but very intelligent, empathetic and devoted to her profession," Feistler said by phone from Cascavel. "She dedicated much of her life to studies and medical training. She had already specialized in clinical medicine and was completing her specialization in clinical oncology", he added. José Roberto Leonel Ferreira, a recently retired doctor who also died, was one of Feistler's teachers during his undergraduate studies. He had a radiology clinic in Cascavel. "I went over cases with him on several occasions. He was a receptive person who helped other doctors in the discussion of cases to reach diagnoses," Feistler said. Brazil's Federal Council of Medicine said the loss of the doctors left Brazil's medical world in mourning, expressing solidarity for the victims' friends and relatives. Following the emergence of footage showing the horrific aircraft disaster, numerous individuals revealed they were meant to board the plane and could have perished had they not missed their departure. Adriano Assis had completed his hospital shift and was running behind schedule to catch the 11.56am flight from Cascavel Regional Airport in Cascavel, Paraná to São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport in São Paulo. Assis informed Brazilian media outlet G1 that he arrived at the check-in desk at 9.40am and observed there were no staff present. He remained in the vicinity, enjoying a coffee whilst repeatedly checking the departure and arrival boards for updates regarding flight 2283. "When I decided it was already 10.30am, there was a huge line here", he said. "I waited until it was 10.40am or so. The guy said I wouldn't be boarding anymore because it was an hour before boarding." Assis desperately begged the agent to let him on his return flight to São Paulo, but fortunately, he was unsuccessful. "At that moment, I argued with him and stuff, and that was it, and he saved my life, man," he recounted. "He did his job because... if he hadn't done it... maybe I wouldn't be in this interview today, sorry." Another shared with the media he and three friends missed their flight as they were at the wrong gate along with 10 other passengers. "When it was 11 o'clock, I came looking here. When I looked I said, 'Man, you're not getting on that plane anymore'," he explained. He even attempted to charm one of the gate staff into letting him on the plane. "I said, 'Girl, put me on this plane, I have to go, I have to go'," he pleaded. She replied firmly, "No ...What I can do for you is reschedule your flight.' So, she rescheduled it for 6.20pm."

Brazilian tourist found dead in Indonesia volcano could have been saved, says family
The family of a Brazilian hiker who was found dead in a volcano in Indonesia have accused the local search and rescue team of being too slow in their efforts to reach her. Juliana Marins, 26, a dancer and publicist from Niterói, fell down a cliff while hiking up Gunung Rinjani, an active Indonesian volcano on the island of Lombok, last week. After a perilous four-day search, which was hampered by rough terrain and adverse weather, authorities retrieved her remains on Wednesday. Her body was lifted from the cliff and carried on a stretcher to the rescuers' nearest post, where an ambulance transported it to a hospital. Marins' family has now claimed that she could have been saved had the rescue team been more prompt with their search efforts and reached the site sooner. "Juliana suffered great negligence on the part of the rescue team,' the family posted on social media on Wednesday. "If the team had reached her within the estimated time of 7 hours, Juliana would still be alive,' the family said, according to Brazilian broadcaster TV Globo. 'Juliana deserved much more! Now we are going to seek justice for her, because that is what she deserves! Don't give up on Juliana!" In a separate post, her family thanked 'the volunteers who bravely' helped to finally retrieve her body. Mohammad Syafii, the head of Indonesia's rescue agency, said he had met the family to explain the challenges that delayed the rescue efforts. He added that they "accept the situation we were facing", The Straits Times reported. He said the body was recovered on Wednesday in a retrieval process that took six hours. "Initially, we would [have liked] to use a helicopter in the evacuation, but it [was] not possible due to the weather conditions," he said. "So, we had to evacuate the victim on stretchers, which took quite a long time." Footage shared by the agency showed rescuers attempting to lift the body from the cliff using ropes, overshadowed by thick fog. Marins' body was taken to the neighbouring island of Bali on Thursday for an autopsy to confirm the cause and time of death. 'Now the autopsy will be carried out in Bali. We looked for the closest option, which is Denpasar,' deputy governor of West Nusa Tenggara province, Indah Dhamayanti Putri said, adding: 'They want to know the time of death.' Brazil 's foreign ministry said that after four days of work, "made difficult by adverse weather, ground and visibility conditions in the regions, the Indonesian Search and Rescue Agency found the body of the Brazilian tourist". Marins slipped during a group trek near the crater of Rinjani, Indonesia's second-highest volcano. She had been hiking with five other foreign tourists and a local guide last Saturday morning when she lost her footing and plunged down a cliffside, reportedly falling about 600m. The fall happened at around 6.30am local time on a trail ringing the volcano's dramatic crater rim. She survived the initial fall and was reportedly seen moving and calling for help, but successive rescue efforts were thwarted by fog, shifting sands and steep, unstable terrain. A fellow hiker later told Brazilian TV the terrain was extremely slippery and visibility was poor at the time, the BBC reported. Marins had been on a backpacking trip across Asia since February, visiting the Philippines, Vietnam and Thailand before arriving in Indonesia. Her posts on social media captured her love of dance as well as travel.

Juliana Marins' death: Family of Brazilian hiker slams Indonesian officials as viral clips show volunteers led her rescue effort
For nearly four days, the world watched and waited, hoping for a miracle from the steep ridges of Indonesia's Mount Rinjani. But when Brazilian authorities confirmed the death of 26-year-old Juliana Marins on Tuesday, hope turned to heartbreak and fury. Juliana, a dancer from Niterói just outside Rio de Janeiro, had been travelling solo through Asia since February. Last week, on June 21, she joined a group of five foreign tourists and a local guide to hike Mount Rinjani, an active volcano on the island of Lombok standing more than 12,000 feet tall. At some point, during the climb, she slipped and fell nearly 600 meters into a crater. The news of her fall quickly went viral in Brazil, with millions rallying online through prayers, hashtags, and desperate calls for action. But as the rescue dragged on, her family began raising serious concerns not just about the dangerous terrain or weather delays but about how little was being done and how slowly. Juliana Marins' family speaks out As news of Juliana's tragic death broke, her family didn't hold back. They accused the official Indonesian rescue teams of serious negligence. 'Juliana suffered great negligence on the part of the rescue team,' they wrote in a heartbreaking post. 'If the team had reached her within the estimated time of 7 hours, Juliana would still be alive. Juliana deserved much more! Now we are going to seek justice for her.' Juliana's father also expressed his frustration on Brazil's TV Globo, saying the family received no support from the Brazilian government or the Indonesian embassy. 'This is very sad and extremely serious. She is a 26-year-old girl, a Brazilian citizen, and no one — except family and friends — seems to care.' Trapped for days, with no food or water According to her sister, Juliana had asked her guide to stop during the trek because she was 'very tired'. But the guide and group allegedly continued without her. Exhausted and alone for about an hour, Juliana fell from the crater rim, an estimated 1,600 feet, and was left trapped for four days. 'She didn't know where to go. She didn't know what to do,' her sister said. Family received fake updates Though fellow hikers later spotted her flashlight and heard her screams, the rescue mission quickly turned into a nightmare. The family received confusing updates, with long delays and sometimes false information about her condition. They were also told — falsely — that she had been given food, water, and blankets. 'At first, they tried to reach her with a rope that was shorter than necessary and couldn't,' said her sister. 'Then they released a video that was clearly staged and not from an actual rescue attempt.' Volunteers, not officials, took action Now, viral posts on social media are putting the spotlight on volunteers — not the government — for actually bringing Juliana's body back. According to a widely shared post from Indonesia Pop Base, it was Agam Rinjani, a local climber and guide, who stayed with her all night to keep her body from sliding further into the crater. At sunrise, he reportedly carried her body up the volcano on his own. Agam Rinjani, the man who stayed by Juliana Marins' side all night to keep her body from sliding down the cliff, carried her to the top when dawn broke. Another viral post praised Agam: 'He was the one who assembled a team to go after Juliana Marins while the government didn't even care. He was the one who went down the volcano to recover her body. And it was he who climbed back up with her. This is the one we should thank.' One added that it was only after Agam stepped in that things actually started moving. 'He showed pure determination and empathy. He slept at the site, set up equipment, and made the descent when no one else would.' Verdade seja dita, todo mundo começou a se mexer pro resgate da Juliana Marins no Monte depois que esse experiente alpinista e guia montou uma equipe, jogou a mochila nas costas e foi resolver esse B.O. Disposição pura, independente do desfecho ele teve uma empatia enorme com a… Anger over lack of transparency Juliana's family claims they were kept in the dark for most of the rescue, relying on social media for updates. They said authorities were not communicating clearly and even accused the Indonesian government of spreading misinformation. 'The Indonesian government is lying, and the embassy is not verifying the facts before informing us,' her sister said. 'She is not receiving supplies.' Online, many echoed the family's frustration. 'We're living in a nightmare here,' one of Juliana's friends posted. 'Authorities are giving conflicting and often false information.' Rinjani Park responds with condolences After the tragic confirmation of her death, the Mount Rinjani National Park administration issued a statement offering their condolences. 'The entire family of the Mount Rinjani National Park Office expresses its deepest condolences on the death of Juliana De Souza Pereira Marins,' they wrote. 'May [her family] receive strength and courage to face this disaster. Rinjani shares our condolences — the nature she loved witnessed her last steps.' But for Juliana's loved ones, the gesture felt hollow. Her family is now seeking justice. 'Juliana deserved better,' they wrote. 'Don't give up on Juliana.'
