The STF looked into the abyss, the abyss now looks back at it

oglobo12 September 2026 at 04:05

The president of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Edson Fachin, took a series of measures this week to try to contain the crisis at the Court, including ordering Justice André Mendonça to fully lift the secrecy of the Master case proceedings. The actions were described as belated and futile.

On Wednesday, when the measures were announced, the court was already presenting a scenario described as "lawless territory," and the conflict among the justices showed no signs of abating. The article mentions a "shootout" among the justices.

Two of the measures announced by Fachin could still potentially change the court's course, according to the article, if they survive the "smoke screen" that would be used to divert attention from what really matters.

Lifting secrecy of Master case was the right move

STF President Edson Fachin made the right call by lifting the secrecy of the Banco Master case, ordering the reporting justice André Mendonça to release the inquiries, petitions, and complaints, except for materials from ongoing investigations that could be compromised. Initially, Mendonça made 14 proceedings public, but kept under seal the investigations into the film "Dark horse" (a Bolsonaro biopic) and regarding Senator Jaques Wagner's relationship with a former Master partner, which was corrected by Fachin, who demanded the release of all remaining documents.

$5,000 check if Republicans win reflects Trump's desperation

The article discusses Donald Trump's growing unpopularity, with 58% of Americans disapproving of his performance, against only 38% who approve. The article mentions the promise of a $5,000 check if Republicans win, which the analysis suggests reflects a certain desperation in Trump's campaign. The article also recalls Trump's famous 2016 declaration about being able to shoot someone on Fifth Avenue without losing voters, contrasting it with his current decline in the polls. Rising living costs, driven by import tariffs and conflicts in the Middle East, are pointed out as some of the main complaints of American voters.

Why did it take so long for voters to learn about the investigation into Flavio?

The Federal Police requested and the Attorney General's Office did not oppose the opening of an investigation into Senator Flavio Bolsonaro for crimes such as money laundering, currency evasion, and passive corruption. Minister André Mendonça, of the Supreme Court, authorized the investigation on July 22, three days before the convention that officially made him the presidential candidate. The public only learned about it almost two months later, raising questions about the delay in disclosing the information.
