Brazil judge removes Lula's federal police chief amid Supreme Court turmoil
La Nación (Argentina)LO·BR·about 18 hours ago
Influential evangelical pastor Silas Malafaia publicly called on Justice Edson Fachin to remove Minister Alexandre de Moraes from Brazil's Supreme Court, framing the court as a threat to democracy. This escalates political pressure on the judiciary amid ongoing tensions over Moraes' role in election-related investigations. The request is unlikely to succeed but signals growing polarization and potential instability in Brazil's institutional balance.
