The president of the Supreme Federal Court, Edson Fachin, opened the first session of the Court after the scandal involving the revelation of the exchange of messages between Minister Alexandre de Moraes and banker Daniel Vorcaro, without making any reference to the crisis that placed the STF at the center of discussions. So far, none of the ministers has publicly commented on the matter.
Alexandre de Moraes adopted a different procedure than usual upon arriving at the court. While ministers normally enter through the garage of the headquarters building, Moraes chose to arrive at the STF through the external marquee of the building, a path used only for major events and ceremonies. The Attorney General of Brazil, Paulo Gonet, followed the same route as the minister.
Minister André Mendonça's office confirmed Vorcaro's testimony on an urgent basis, although the specific details of this testimony were not detailed in the article. The session also included a favorable opinion on ending the 6x1 work schedule, with rejection of amendments related to the theme.
The absence of comments from the ministers contrasts with the gravity of the situation, since the revelation of the alleged exchange of messages between Moraes and Vorcaro generated significant repercussions and placed the court in a delicate position before public opinion.
