> If the Brazilian justice system had any integrity [...] the court would be punished.

Where to begin...

The Brazilian supreme court essentially runs the country monocratically alongside the executive, bypassing the senate and congress.

We had to elect enough opposition senators to form an absolute majority in the senate with the explicit goal of impeaching the supreme court judges for infinitely worse violations than this.

Even after this herculean effort, nothing is guaranteed. The judges are nearly omnipotent and might just find a crime to hang our senators with before 2027. The crime of the day is foreign influence: they accuse our senators of having been financed by Americans.

Integrity has left this country a long time ago.

Oh no, they pointed out things that are happening: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/sep/30/trump-state-...

Nothing new under the soon. Their side was financed by USAID too. If they're going to hang people for that, they need to do it to both parties and themselves.

So you first argued that the courts were using false charges of foreign influence as a political weapon. Now you say that the charges are correct?

Selective enforcement is a pretty good political weapon
