🇧🇷🇺🇸❌⭐🇧🇷 — Brazilian congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, says trade negotiations between the United States and Brazil cannot work if they focus only on commerce instead of the broader “institutional crisis” he sees in Brazil:

➡️ More U.S. sanctions and visa restrictions are expected against Brazilian targets, along with the possibility of higher tariffs on all countries worldwide;

➡️ Eduardo says Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court (STF) has “lost power” due to U.S. measures and does not see how the court could win a confrontation with Donald Trump’s administration, even if it tries to circumvent the rules;

➡️ He says he expects the U.S. to impose visa restrictions on Brazil’s Health Minister, Alexandre Padilha, and likely on former President Dilma Rousseff, linked to the Cuban doctors’ exchange program sanctioned by Marco Rubio;

➡️ After meeting with U.S. officials, Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro said he expects financial sanctions against the wife of Supreme Federal Court (STF) Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who is overseeing his father’s trial.

🇧🇷🎙🤝🇺🇸 — Paulo Figueiredo, a Brazilian journalist (and grandson of João Figueiredo, the last dictator to govern Brazil) on 𝕏:

Today, Eduardo Bolsonaro and I concluded an intense two-day schedule in Washington, D.C., with meetings at various agencies and with authorities from the U.S. administration — a level of dialogue that the current Brazilian government seems to have difficulty establishing. Our goal was to directly present our perspective on the serious political situation in Brazil and to share our views on possible courses of action.

The decisions rest solely with President Donald Trump and his secretaries, but we return with the certainty that the United States is committed to helping Brazil restore its freedoms. The pressure in this direction is far from over. For those who love freedom, there is much to celebrate. For tyrants, much to fear. May common sense prevail, and may our country get back on track, restoring its historic partnership with the cradle of democracy and the most prosperous nation in history.

🇧🇷⚖️❗️🔎🙏 — Pastor Silas Malafaia, considered one of the country’s main religious leaders and the most influential pastor in Latin America, is under investigation by the Federal Police. He has been included in the same inquiry involving Jair Bolsonaro, Eduardo Bolsonaro, and Paulo Figueiredo — known as a branch of the Fake News Inquiry

👮 Opened in May, the proceedings investigate actions against authorities, against the Supreme Federal Court, public officials, and attempts to obtain international sanctions against Brazil. According to Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the case’s rapporteur, these initiatives aimed to hinder the progress of the trial in which Jair Bolsonaro is a defendant for allegedly attempting a coup d’état.

💥 Malafaia was responsible for organizing the rally in support of Bolsonaro on August 3, during which the former president appeared in a video broadcast on third parties’ social media accounts, resulting in his house arrest the following day.

⛓ In a video posted on social media, Malafaia reiterated that Justice Alexandre de Moraes should be impeached, tried, and imprisoned.
