Corruption probe may have caused resignation of Brazilian FM

The resignation of Brazilian Foreign Minister Jose Serra may have been influenced by the ongoing Car Wash corruption investigation, which implicated him in receiving illegal campaign funds from Odebrecht. Serra cited health issues as the reason for his resignation, needing time to recuperate from spine surgery. His departure surprised President Michel Temer, who must now find a replacement. Serra's resignation marks the seventh ministerial loss for Temer, many due to corruption allegations. Serra's tenure saw a shift in Brazil's foreign policy, distancing from leftist regimes and suspending Venezuela from Mercosul.

The Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) has ruled to criminalize discrimination against LGBTQ individuals, equating it with racism, due to Congress's failure to legislate on the matter. The decision was made with an 8 to 3 vote, and it applies until Congress enacts specific legislation. The ruling does not restrict religious freedom, allowing religious leaders to express their beliefs as long as they do not incite hate. The decision concludes after intense political disputes, with the Evangelical Parliamentary Front attempting to prevent the ruling and proposing their own legislation project.

Bolsonaro couple to testify in luxury items and jewelry diversion case

Voice of America

Portuguese
| Corruption Investigation
Former President Jair Bolsonaro and former First Lady Michele Bolsonaro are set to testify on August 31st at the Federal Police in Brasília regarding their involvement in a scandal involving the sale of luxury items and jewelry received during Bolsonaro's term. The items were sold during official trips abroad, such as to the United States. Military aide Mauro Cid, who is now in prison, is accused in these operations and has recently confessed during a ten-hour testimony, although it is unclear if he implicated Bolsonaro as a beneficiary of the sales proceeds. Cid's account showed eight million reais, a sum inconsistent with his military income, raising suspicions that the money was intended for the former Brazilian president. Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes authorized the breaking of the Bolsonaros' bank secrecy. Political scientist Guilherme Carvalhido notes the weakening of the Bolsonarist movement in Brazil, while analyst Vinicius Vieira compares Bolsonaro to Trump, who gained more support among voters after being indicted. Jair Bolsonaro is currently facing over 600 lawsuits and is ineligible to run for office until 2026 due to actions against electronic voting in the last election.

Brazil's Supreme Court banned the social media platform X, owned by Elon Musk, after the company failed to appoint a local legal representative. This decision, led by Judge Alexandre de Moraes, aims to combat political disinformation. Despite the ban, right-wing politicians, including Jair Bolsonaro's sons, continue to use X via VPNs, criticizing de Moraes and the court's decision. Meanwhile, left-wing politicians are migrating to Bluesky. The ban has sparked a debate on free speech and the potential dangers of political polarization on social media platforms. VPNs remain a tool for circumventing the ban, though their effectiveness is debated.
