Gilmar Mendes' arguments for the session on the 15th to also analyze accusations against Mendonça

BBC News Brasil12 September 2026 at 00:11

In an official communication sent to the president of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) this Friday (09/11), decano Gilmar Mendes requested that a session on the 15th also analyze a petition involving accusations against André Mendonça, current minister of Justice.

Additionally, Gilmar Mendes asked that the nullity request presented by the Attorney General's Office (PGR) regarding a Federal Police (PF) report be evaluated during the same session.

The document sent by the decano to the president of the STF aims to include these two topics on the agenda of the session scheduled for the 15th, expanding the scope of what will be discussed on that occasion.

Gilmar Mendes' request demonstrates his concern with addressing both the accusations against Mendonça and the procedural issue raised by the PGR regarding the Federal Police report.

Shorts and ironies

The book "Struggles against the dictatorship from Democratic Portugal – transatlantic connections", by Edgar Silva and Élvio Passos, was presented in Funchal. The book is dedicated to the role of resistance journalism against Salazarist censorship. The article highlights the irony of celebrating this memory in a context where free and independent press in Madeira finds itself progressively limited by dependence on regional subsidies, the pressure of concrete, and domesticated editorial lines. The piece warns that although journalism no longer formally faces dictatorships, it encounters new, subtle mechanisms of conditioning, where scrutiny gives way to propaganda and investigative journalism is replaced by government press releases.

Lula raises the tone and reacts to the crisis: 'In my term, Vorcaro became a prisoner'

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva raised the tone during a rally in Porto Alegre by stating that in his term, banker Daniel Vorcaro, arrested amid the Banco Master crisis, was turned into a prisoner, while under the Bolsonaro government he would have become a "bank." Lula also criticized the opposition, accusing it of trying to attribute to him the scandal of INSS pension embezzlement, which according to him was created under the Bolsonaro government and dismantled under his management. The president stated he is in favor of opening a CPI to investigate the case, despite resistance within his own government.
