STF holds first session after PF report made by order of Mendonça citing messages from Vorcaro to Moraes and increasing tension

oglobo2 September 2026 at 18:28

The Supreme Federal Court (STF) held on Wednesday its first plenary session after the release of a Federal Police report detailing messages exchanged between banker Daniel Vorcaro and Justice Alexandre de Moraes, increasing internal tension at the Court.

The document was produced by order of Justice André Mendonça, rapporteur of the investigations into the Master case, and brings together dialogues that also reference the Attorney General, Paulo Gonet, and the Director-General of the PF, Andrei Rodrigues.

In addition to Mendonça and Moraes, the session was attended by Court President Edson Fachin and Justices Gilmar Mendes, Cristiano Zanin, Dias Toffoli, Flávio Dino, Nunes Marques and Cármen Lúcia.

Although the case was not on the plenary agenda, the revelations about Vorcaro's messages deepened internal disagreements about the conduct of the investigations and once again brought to the fore the tensions among the STF justices.

Works, contracts and financial infractions: the six investigations scrutinizing the seven years of Luís Neves at the head of the PJ

Luís Neves, who for seven years led the Judicial Police (PJ), is now the subject of half a dozen investigations examining his tenure at the head of the police force that investigates serious crime. The investigations focus on works, contracts, and financial infractions from that period. The situation is marked by an institutional irony: now as Minister of Internal Administration, Luís Neves is being scrutinized by the institution he previously directed.
