Brazil is so f*cked. They are attempting to impeach President Rousseff for breaking budget laws. Her successor would be VP Temer who may be impeached

for similar, but more serious charges.

If both the President and VP are impeached, The speaker of the lower house of Congress, Eduardo Cunha is next in line. And guess what? He has been accused of money-laundering in connection with corruption at the state-run Petrobras oil company.

But wait! Who could be next?

The fourth in line, Senate leader Renan Calheiros, is also under investigation in connection with the Petrobras corruption scandal.
