The (-SP) plan and counterattack allies, (Supreme Federal Court) includes us a possible process in the Justice Department aiming at the minister.
In addition to economic sanctions and visa blocking measures, the script considers that the US agency, which has a prosecutor’s office – nonexistent boring in the country – may investigate the minister for the crime of conspiracy against fundamental rights.
According to a lawyer close to Trump management, the law provides as a offense that conspir or threatens a person in the United States to prevent him from exercising prerogatives guaranteed in the Constitution, such as freedom of expression, without having authority for it
This lawyer evaluates that the magistrate’s actions are an attempt to coercion against freedom of expression. The penalty for those who are convicted of this crime varies from payment of a fine to prison for up to ten years.
The argument is that Moraes would fit the infraction because he issued decisions that provide for sanctions for social networking companies such as X and under penalty of fines, as well as having targeted people in the US.
Members of the articulation in the country have tried to show authorities that 14 individuals on American soil have been the target of Moraes, including: Elon Musk, owner of X; Jason Miller, former Trump advisor who was arrested at a Brazilian airport and heard at the fake news survey; Steve Bannon, who was the main strategist of the US president and is quoted in the digital militias survey; And the Brazilians who are in the USA Paulo Figueiredo, Rodrigo Constantino, Allan dos Santos and Ludmila Lins Grillo.
The information is contained in an extensive document of more than 1,000 pages, which is being taken to government agencies with copies of processes.
Last week, he ordered the companies and X to inform the PF within ten days the data of profile accounts used by, under penalty of a fine of $ 100,000 per day in case of non -compliance. The minister answered a request from Fake News investigations against a journalist.
Allan has been considered a fugitive since 2021. At least two people involved in the strategy against Moraes say they had been providing information to the Justice Department, which would be aware of the situation.
The Chairman of the Judicial Commission of the House all decisions that could mean attempted censorship. The expectation of Bolsonaro allies is that the measure reveals other orders of Moraes that may reinforce the accusations in the US.
The process in the Justice Department, if consolidated, would occur in parallel to
One of Bolsonarist’s bets is that Moraes can be sanctioned based on the so -called Magnitski Law. 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.
The idea would be that Moraes will be punished similarly to the sanctions applied to the Attorney of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, in retaliation for the arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
Khan cannot enter the US and received a sanction from OFAC, a foreign asset control office, which belongs to the US Treasury Department. With this, he had any goods in the US blocked and was prevented from making transactions with US institutions.
Trump’s decree determining the sanction was issued in February.
The suggestion brought to White House members is for a Moraes -like punishment, in which more people could be included in 120 days. This is because pockets evaluate that Federal Police delegates and companies on American soil.
Eduardo Bolsonaro told Sheet Believe that the sanction is feasible. Two other people involved in the joint also consider a matter of time for punishment. The report was unanswered by the State Department or the Justice Department regarding the measures.
The expectation of a pocketist in the United States is that the speech, claiming to fear the apprehension of his passport and a possible prison.
Ultimately, the purpose of the pocket articulation is that any sanctions to Moraes provoke pressure on the Brazilian judiciary and lead to a retreat in the actions against Bolsonaro and allies, which, for the moment, is difficult to occur. The former president will have his complaint for the accusation of scoring a coup d’état analyzed by the STF next Tuesday (25).
On Friday (21), a decision by the US government was used as an example by an ally of Bolsonaro of how the possibility of sanction is real. State Department Secretary Marco Rubio, from the former president of, his two children and one of the ministers of his management at the head of Casa Rosada.
They were prohibited from entering US territory on charges of “significant involvement.” Kirchner is one of the predecessors of, who has Trump’s sympathy.
