The State Department of, equivalent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, published a message in X on Wednesday (26) in which it implicitly refers to the case of Rumble against the minister, (Supreme Court).
“Respect for sovereignty is a two -way road with all US partners, including Brazil. Blocking access to information and imposing fines on US -based companies for refusing to censor people living in the United States is incompatible with those Democratic values, including freedom of expression, “wrote the western hemisphere’s office profile of the State Department.
This is the first time that the management of the president deals with the theme.
The statement occurs days after Deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) talked to US diplomats on the subject and in front of an offensive of Donald Trump’s allies against Moraes, including billionaire Elon Musk,
How it showed the SheetJair Bolsonaro’s son (PL) has made a tour in recent weeks asking for US authorities sanctions against the STF minister.
The match with Moraes in the US has reached the courts after the minister’s orders are declared illegal.
The video platform understands that Moraes has extrapolated its competence by requesting the closure of the account of the scholarship influencer Allan dos Santos and to ask the platforms to provide their user data without restricting themselves to Brazil.
In the state department’s note, although Allan is not quoted, he is one of the people who refers to the Trump government when he complains about the imposition of “fines on US -based companies for refusing to censor people living in the United States.”
A day before the note was published, Judge Mary S. Scriven denied so that Moraes orders are not met in the United States. The magistrate did this, however, stating that the minister’s decisions no longer apply to the US if the defendants are not summoned by the protocols of the Hague Convention and a Treaty between the country and Brazil, as is the case.
Therefore, the judge did not see the need to grant an injunction to avoid compliance with determinations of the minister. The decision not to the Florida magistrate understood that the request for Rumble is not appropriate because the company would no longer need to comply with the decision precisely because the Brazilian minister did not engage the proper channels of subpoena.
That is, in practice, she says that Rumble and Trump’s media company need not adhere to Trump’s orders in the American territory.
Scriven also added that apparently no action was taken to reinforce Moraes’ determinations by the Brazilian government, the US government or other relevant actor. However, it states that if there is any action in this regard, it will take any action.
