Flávio suggests, without presenting evidence, that Moraes and Alcolumbre orchestrated action to undermine his candidacy

SenatorFlávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ), candidate for President of the Republic, suggested this Thursday, without presenting proof or any evidence to support the accusation, that Justice Alexandre de Moraes, of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), and the president of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre (União-AP), would have orchestrated an action against him with the aim of undermining his candidacy.

In a social media post,Flávio stated that the two would have spoken "at length" this Wednesday, in Brasília, and that they would have orchestrated with JusticeFlávio Dino a measure he classified as illegal. "Alexandre de Moraes and Davi Alcolumbre would have spoken at length this Wednesday (Sept. 2), in Brasília, and orchestrated withFlávio Dino some illegal action against me, with the sole purpose of 'reacting' to André Mendonça and undermining me electorally," the senator wrote.

The article highlights that the congressman presented no documents, conversation records, or any other element to support that the alleged meeting would have occurred, nor that any illegal action would have been orchestrated as he claims. The accusation made by Bolsonaro therefore lacks any proof as of the time of publication of the article.

Argentina will advance if Senate supports project that disciplines Central Bank mission

Argentina is about to take an important step in its economic policy if the Senate approves the project that disciplines the Central Bank, preventing it from financing public spending. President Javier Milei achieved a victory in the Chamber of Deputies for his proposal to end the mechanism that allows currency issuance to cover fiscal deficits, something similar to what occurred in Brazil before the Real Plan. Although the anti-inflationary shock has caused impacts on the Argentine labor market, the government considers this measure essential to continue the country's economic stabilization plan.

Save democracy, not Moraes

This opinion article addresses the institutional crisis at the Supreme Federal Court (STF) and advocates for the removal of Justice Alexandre de Moraes. The text argues that since the opening of the fake news inquiry, the Court has granted excessive powers to a single individual to act in defense of the institution, making his errors and successes in conducting the process become errors and successes of the Court itself. This is an exclusive subscriber-only article that proposes a reflection on the need for institutional reform in the Brazilian judiciary.

President Lula meets this Friday with the president of the STF, Edson Fachin, at the Palace of the Presidency, amid a crisis at the Supreme Court involving ministers Alexandre de Moraes and André Mendonça. Lula had demanded on Thursday a reaction from Fachin to ensure the integrity of the investigations involving the Master case. The crisis began after the revelation of new messages exchanged between banker Daniel Vorcaro and Alexandre de Moraes, which were made public by the case rapporteur, André Mendonça. Fachin opened a procedure to clarify points raised by the PGR in the conduct of these investigations, and the attorney general, Paulo Gonet, is also participating in the event.
