Recent decisions involving the former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) have exposed cracks in both First Class of the Supreme Court (STF) as in Chamber of Deputies.
With the score of four to one, the first class of the Supreme Court upheld the decision so that Bolsonaro wears electronic anklet and complies with other precautionary measures.
O – Flávio Dino, Cristiano Zanin and Cármen Lúcia accompanied the rapporteur, Alexandre de Moraes.
Fux considers that there are no concrete evidence, as evidence of risk of escape, for the application of measures against Bolsonaro.
In the vote, it even states that their breadth “disproportionately restricts fundamental rights”, such as “freedom to come and go” and “expression and communication”.
The defenses of the investigated began to see in Fux the possibility of at least one vote for acquittal – which could open margin for new types of appeal. This is because Fux has been established as a counterpoint to recent decisions of Moraes within the first class.
In March, when Bolsonaro became a defendant, Fux voted in favor of receiving the complaint, but made a series of caveats.
He also disagreed with the Supreme Court’s competence to judge all cases of January 8 and indicated to consider some exaggerated penalties.
Fux differences are insufficient to improve Bolsonaro’s legal situation.
Given the risk of being arrested on Tuesday (22), the former president opted for caution, without public movements. He spent part of the day at the headquarters of the PL (Liberal Party), at closed doors, before going home.
The former president was not the, as he intended.
Diffections in Congress
The decisions of Moraes and the Supreme Court also created disagreements in Congress between representatives of the center right.
On the one hand, the mayor, Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB). On the other, the Bolsonaro PL.
Even with the unofficial recess, PL congressmen tried to ensure the operation of commissions commanded by they to vote for Bolsonaro support.

“The only decision we should submit was by the acting president [Elmar Nascimento]”Said PL leader in the House, Sostenes Cavalcante (RJ).

The order also hinders the will of the PL to articulate the vote of amnesty and other projects against the Supreme Court.
The opposition also moves to maintain the position of Federal Deputy of Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), who was licensed until last Sunday.
Some alternatives under the table are trying to change the chamber regiment to ensure the mandate or that it is appointed state secretary of some ally governor -.
The assessment is that if Eduardo loses his mandate, this can weaken his position with American authorities, as well as harming his political capital.
