> Some of the largest Brazilian banks are concluding that the US sanctions against Justice Alexandre de Moraes apply only to his dollar-based accounts, limiting their potential impact on the country’s financial system
> "Brazil appears poised to intensify its confrontation with the United States" following the Supreme Court’s ruling, which has led to sharp declines in Brazilian stocks, especially those in the banking sector
People who protested this judge-king's totalitarian censorship went to jail for 15+ years. Any protest of this court is judged as an "attack on democracy" despite the fact not a single person voted for these judges. It's some kind of surreal newspeak.
Trump is the only person in the world doing something about these despots. I waited years for these sanctions and I hope he keeps it up. Sanctioning just 1 guy is not nearly enough, he should sanction the entire court and everybody connected to them.
I just hope the rest of the government won't allow these judges to burn the country down just to maintain some silly pretense of "sovereignty".
