Brazil Supreme Court crisis deepens as Lula backs debate on justice term limits

  • Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva backed discussing term limits for Supreme Court justices amid the institution’s internal crisis.
  • Roughly 30 messages allegedly sent by Banco Master head Daniel Vorcaro were linked to a number associated with Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
  • The court postponed deliberations for a second consecutive day and plans to consider Tuesday whether de Moraes should be investigated.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said term limits for Supreme Court justices should be discussed, while describing the court’s internal conflict as an institutional crisis unrelated to his government. The dispute has since intensified around Justice Alexandre de Moraes, allegations involving Banco Master head Daniel Vorcaro, and a delayed full-bench session on whether de Moraes should face an investigation.
