The deputy (-SP) returned to Washington as part of an offensive against the minister, (Supreme Court).
The parliamentarian went with his family to Florida and this week passed through the US capital. In a video with right -wing influencer Paulo Figueiredo, he reports having talked to government members in the White House, without detailing who the authorities are.
Until Friday (14), Eduardo had no date to return and allies argue that he is in the country and does not return to Brazil, otherwise losing his passport.
alleging crimes against sovereignty committed by the parliamentary in the US ride. The request was made on February 27, when Eduardo arrived in the country.
The measure reverberated on social networks, being criticized by pockets, who claim political persecution of the deputy, with the objective of hindering his ascension to the Foreign Relations Commission.
The PL indicated the parliamentarian to command the board. Parliamentarians reacted and speak of possible noises with the supreme and in Brazil’s diplomatic relations to try to avoid the choice, as shown by Sheet.
Figueiredo, also the target of Moraes’ actions, argues that Eduardo remains in the US. The parliamentarian did not answer the question of the report on the subject.
Meanwhile, the deputy maintains the offensive in the US, along with YouTuber, to convince US officials to apply sanctions to Moraes, ranging from the loss of visa to enter the country to blocking abroad.
The STF minister is the rapporteur of the complaint of the PGR (Attorney General of the Republic) about the 2022 coup plot, in which Bolsonaro and Figueiredo are included.
“What we are doing here is no absurdity. We are only leading to the knowledge of several authorities what is happening in Brazil,” said Eduardo in Live.
“Kicked Rumble [tiraram a rede do ar]the guy is asking for arrest warrant against Brazilian soil [Moraes pediu a prisão de uma brasileira com dupla cidadania, naturalizada americana, por participar no 8 de janeiro]“, these.
Bolsonaro also said at Live that the ministers were making jokes about losing their passport and now they take it seriously.
Eduardo dealt with the request for the revocation of his passport and again claimed that there was a persecution.
“Is coming to the United States very often a crime?” “What is the crime when articulating STF reactions abroad? The Supreme Court is ‘incitable’, you cannot criticize measures from STF ministers,” he said.
The onslaught occurs on the eve of the trial of the first class that can make a defendant. On Thursday (13), the minister, against the former president and allies for the coup plot in 2022. The expectation of Bolsonarists is that a sanction to Moraes can press the other STF ministers to retreat in the proceedings.
One of the bets of those who are part of the offensive is that Moraes can be sanctioned based on the so -called Magnitski Law – at honor of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitski. The legislation, approved by the Barack Obama government, imposes restrictions on visas, freezes accounts and assets of the targets abroad and imposes financial restrictions on companies.
Boconists say the sanction can lead financial institutions to close the target accounts, otherwise the banks are prevented from participating in the international financial system. This could mean the closure of Moraes’ accounts in Brazil itself, said Figueiredo in a live.
This sanction is applied by the executive. Republican deputy Rich McCormick stated on social networks that he would ask Trump to apply magnistsky sanctions against the minister.
The other front is searching for the approval of the proposal “at Censorship on Our Shores Act” (without censors in our territory), which establishes the deportation and the veto of entry in the US. This project was approved in the Collegiate Analogous to the CCJ (Constitution and Justice Commission) of the US Chamber and has no date to go to plenary.
The text has the support of Republicans, but also of Democrats, because it is a protection of freedom of expression, face to the Americans and provided for in the Constitution.
The expectation of Bolsonarists is that some sanction will be applied in the coming months.
The last time he was in the US, in late February, Eduardo was with members of the State Department, an organ equivalent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Days later, and said that punishing US companies for refusing to practice censorship goes against democratic values. This time, Eduardo also participated in CPAC, the world’s largest conservative conference ,.

Eduardo said to Sheet Before the trips were paid by him by the conference. This time, the parliamentarian did not respond to the report. Allies say he paid for his own.
