"Everyone and his brother" = mọi người và anh trai -> nghĩa là rất nhiều người, hầu hết mọi người.

Ví dụ
Everyone and his brother will be clamoring (la hét) for the New York Islanders to land an offensive forward before the NHL trade deadline. While that makes sense it’s not very realistic given the marketplace.

In town on holidays, everyone and his brother set off mass quantities (số lượng) of the same illegal fireworks they just bought up the hill at the Reservation. IN Auburn. And although I don’t think the Auburn cops do this anymore, some of them used to provide security to the fireworks stands up there on their off-duty hours for extra money. Now they spend their holiday time chasing the folks IN setting off the fireworks so freely available right in Auburn.

The Fort Meade Christmas parade (diễu hành) snakes through downtown, and is the kind of an event that brings out everyone and his brother. It is a big social event.
