'Who's afraid of the Federal Police?', two ministers out and Fachin questioned: the STF session on Vorcaro's messages to Moraes in 6 points

oglobo15 September 2026 at 17:35

The morning of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) trial regarding messages sent by banker Daniel Vorcaro to Justice Alexandre de Moraes was marked by questions about the handling of the case, declarations of recusal and suspicion, and discussions among Court members. The justices also diverged on the Federal Police's role in the investigations related to Banco Master. The session was suspended for the lunch break and will resume at 2 PM. The Plenary still needs to decide on the validity of the report produced by the PF and the next steps in the investigation involving Moraes.

At the opening of the session, STF President Edson Fachin made an eight-minute statement in which he called for balance among the Court members and stated that disagreements should be resolved by the Plenary. Fachin emphasized that dissent is legitimate, but that personal confrontation is not accepted, and that decisions belong to the Plenary, not to an individual justice.

Why this matters

The STF's decision on the validity of the messages and the PF's role could directly affect ongoing investigations into the financial system and potentially involve high-ranking figures in the Judiciary, generating an impact on confidence in Brazilian democratic institutions. Readers are closely following the developments because this is a case that questions the impartiality of a Supreme Court justice and the scope of the Federal Police's investigative powers.
