Em fevereiro de 2025, a Trump Media & Technology Group e a plataforma Rumble Inc. ingressaram com uma ação judicial na Corte Distrital dos Estados Unidos para o Distrito Médio da Flórida contra o ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) do Brasil, Alexandre de Moraes. Thiago de Aragão, analista políticoA alegação central era de que as ordens emitidas por Moraes, que determinavam a suspensão de contas na plataforma Rumble, violavam a Primeira Emenda da Constituição americana, que protege a liberdade de expressão. As empresas buscavam uma declaração de que tais ordens eram inexequíveis nos Estados Unidos.A ação foi rejeitada pela corte americana com base na falta de jurisdição e na ausência de notificação adequada, conforme exigido pela Lei de Imunidades Soberanas Estrangeiras (FSIA). Segundo a FSIA, Estados estrangeiros e seus representantes gozam de imunidade de jurisdição nos tribunais dos EUA, salvo exceções específicas, como atividades comerciais ou violações de direitos humanos.Além disso, o Departamento de Justiça dos EUA comunicou ao ministro Moraes que suas ordens não eram executáveis em território americano, ressaltando que qualquer tentativa de impor decisões judiciais estrangeiras no país deve seguir os procedimentos legais internacionais apropriados.Tensão entre Brasil e EUAA situação gerou tensões diplomáticas entre Brasil e Estados Unidos. O governo brasileiro, por meio do Ministério das Relações Exteriores, expressou preocupação com a distorção das decisões judiciais brasileiras e reafirmou a soberania nacional.Paralelamente, o secretário de Estado dos EUA, Marco Rubio, indicou que sanções contra Moraes estavam sob consideração, com base na Lei Magnitsky, que permite sanções a indivíduos estrangeiros envolvidos em corrupção ou violações de direitos humanos.A recente iniciativa do governo Trump de considerar sanções contra o ministro Alexandre de Moraes, sob a alegação de censura a plataformas digitais americanas, representa um marco delicado nas relações diplomáticas entre Brasil e Estados Unidos.Essa medida, impulsionada por pressões de aliados de Jair Bolsonaro, como seu filho Eduardo Bolsonaro, e por figuras influentes como Elon Musk, sinaliza uma tentativa de intervenção direta em assuntos internos do Brasil, especialmente no que tange à atuação do Supremo Tribunal Federal em defesa da ordem democrática.A possibilidade de sanções, incluindo restrições de visto e congelamento de bens, conforme previsto na Lei Magnitsky, não apenas desafia a soberania brasileira, mas também ameaça desestabilizar uma parceria histórica entre as duas maiores economias do Hemisfério Ocidental.Especialistas alertam que tal ação pode desencadear uma crise diplomática sem precedentes, com o Brasil buscando apoio em outras esferas internacionais e reavaliando suas alianças estratégicas.Recursos significativosEmbora a retórica do governo Trump sugira uma postura firme contra o ministro Alexandre de Moraes, na prática, essa questão não figura entre as prioridades estratégicas da administração. Com desafios mais prementes, como as tensões comerciais com a China e a situação na Ucrânia, é improvável que o governo dedique recursos significativos para impor sanções a um juiz estrangeiro.Além disso, eventuais sanções, como restrições de visto ou bloqueio de ativos nos EUA, teriam impacto limitado na atuação de Moraes, que concentra suas atividades no Brasil e não depende de ativos ou viagens aos Estados Unidos.Portanto, embora a ameaça de sanções possa gerar repercussões políticas e midiáticas, seus efeitos práticos sobre o ministro e sobre as relações bilaterais tendem a ser mais simbólicos do que substanciais.Este caso destaca os desafios legais e diplomáticos em um mundo interconectado, onde ações de autoridades nacionais podem ter repercussões globais. A tentativa de aplicar princípios constitucionais americanos a decisões judiciais brasileiras evidencia as complexidades de conciliar diferentes sistemas jurídicos e valores democráticos.É essencial que os países desenvolvam mecanismos de cooperação jurídica internacional que respeitem as soberanias nacionais e os princípios democráticos, evitando a politização de disputas judiciais e promovendo a estabilidade das relações internacionais.

"Uma hora de vida de um idoso vale menos do que a de um jovem? Porquê? Com que base ética?" A pergunta foi feita por Henrique Gouveia e Melo, ainda antes de anunciar oficialmente a candidatura à Presidência da República, durante este Alta Definição emitido originalmente em 4 de dezembro de 2021, com Daniel Oliveira. Enquanto reflete sobre as lições, fracassos e vitórias do plano de vacinação contra a COVID-19 que coordenou em Portugal, o na altura vice-almirante da Marinha sublinha que, no final desta "guerra da comunidade contra o vírus", é impossível não pensar nas mais de 18 mil vidas perdidas em apenas um ano e meio. "Por vezes, ainda olhamos para isto como se fossem apenas estatísticas. Mas foram 9000 famílias diretamente atingidas." Gouveia e Melo foi o convidado do programa Alta Definição, conduzido por Daniel Oliveira, emitido a 4 de dezembro de 2021 na SIC.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo’, confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo’ desta terça-feira (28/01/2025): O Itamaraty pediu explicações à gestão Trump sobre o ocorrido no voo que trouxe 88 brasileiros algemados dos EUA, mas adotou tom cauteloso para evitar confronto. Na avaliação do governo, é preciso uma reação firme às denúncias de que os imigrantes foram maltratados. Passageiros disseram ter sido agredidos, impedidos de beber água e ir ao banheiro. O ar-condicionado do avião não funcionava. A PF apura as denúncias. Mulheres e crianças passaram mal. No diagnóstico do Itamaraty, a polarização é tudo o que o presidente dos EUA quer. A ordem é também não enfrentar os EUA na reunião de emergência da Comunidade de Estados Latino-Americanos e Caribenhos (Celac). O encontro foi convocado a pedido do presidente colombiano, Gustavo Petro, que recuou e aceitou que seus cidadãos deportados dos EUA cheguem em voos militares.

Give to help Chris make Truce How do ultra-wealthy people avoid paying taxes? It seems like a strange subject to bring up when discussing why some evangelicals are drawn to the Republican Party. But many of the ties between evangelicals and the GOP have to do with money. So, let's take a little side trip and explore the tax loopholes of today. More importantly, let's try to understand why so many Americans are tax-averse. Could it possibly be because we, deep down, know that someone else is getting a better deal than us? One tactic used by the ultra-wealthy is "buy, borrow, die". They avoid "income", instead opting for assets like stock and real estate they can borrow against. Borrowed money is not taxed. Then they either pay back those loans with other loans (often with interest rates that are much lower than their tax rates would be) or they fail to pay back the loans. Then... they die. Jesse Eisinger is a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter with Pro Publica. Chris first heard about him from his book (pardon the language) The Chickenshit Club and met him when he appeared at a live event in Jackson, WY hosted by the Teton County Library, the Center for the Arts, and the Jackson Hole News and Guide.

Constitutional Law has changed dramatically in the past few years, and therefore so has the course for law students. In this episode, Berkeley Law Dean Erwin Chemerinsky — a leading scholar in the field who has been teaching the class for decades and is the author of a popular casebook — talks about the U.S. Supreme Court's most recent term. It's the latest in a series of monumental years for the Court, and Chemerinsky analyzes these sweeping changes with Michael Dorf, the Robert S. Stevens Professor of Law at Cornell Law School, and CNN Chief Supreme Court Analyst Joan Biskupic.Professor Dorf has authored or co-authored well over one hundred scholarly articles and essays for law reviews, books, and peer-reviewed science and social science journals. He is a co-editor of a Constitutional Law casebook, writes a bi-weekly column for Justia's web magazine, Verdict, and posts several times per week on his own blog, Dorf on Law.Biskupic has covered the Supreme Court for more than 25 years and has written several books on the judiciary, including Nine Black Robes: Inside the Supreme Court's Drive to the Right and its Historic Consequences and The Chief, a biography of Chief Justice John Roberts. AboutMore Just from Berkeley Law is a podcast about how law schools can and must play a role in solving society's most difficult problems. The rule of law — and the role of the law — has never been more important. In these difficult times, law schools can, and must, play an active role in finding solutions. But how? Each episode of More Just starts with a problem, then explores potential solutions, featuring Dean Erwin Chemerinsky as well as other deans, professors, students, and advocates, about how they're making law schools matter.Have a question about teaching or studying law, or a topic you'd like Dean Chemerinsky to explore?

People imagine snow, ice, and bitter cold when they think of Alaska in January, but Alaska is a big place. I live on Kodiak Island in the southern part of the state, and the winter temperature here averages around 35⁰F (1.7⁰C). That may seem cold if you are from California, South America, or Australia, but is not a harsh winter temperature for most of the United States. The following story, though, gives you a feel for Alaska at its coldest. This brutal crime occurred north of the Arctic Circle in January, where the temperature hovered at -50⁰F (-45.6⁰C) when someone shot three men on a caribou hunting expedition and left them to die in their tent.

‘The life of man upon the earth is warfare, and he is born to trouble, as surely as the sparks fly upward.' — Job 5,7 We live in a fallen world. We can speak of a perfect world — and that is assuredly our goal and our destination, as Christians —, but the realities of this world cannot be ignored — Christians are not exempt from living in the world. From the very beginning of our species — when wicked Cain rose up and slew righteous Able —, violence has never left our shadow. Although it was most certainly not part of God's original or intended design for Creation, violence is just as certainly part of its fallen state. It is not that violence is itself a good; rather, it is that violence is sometimes required to protect the good. When a man enacts violence upon a home intruder to defend himself, his wife, his children, and his goods, he is using violence toward a righteous and morally praiseworthy end. Throughout the pages of Scripture, God Himself uses violence against His enemies — from the genocide of Canaan to the Final Judgement, God employs violence consistently and constantly. Although violence will be absent from the new Creation, it will never be absent from this fallen one. As Christians, we must not condemn violence qua violence for to do so would be to condemn God, which is apostasy; rather, we must know how to apply wisdom to these matters so that we align our actions and our beliefs with what God has commanded — and He both proscribes and prescribes violence, depending on the circumstances. It is also necessary for the Christian, in order that he might act in wisdom, to understand the law — to understand the differences between and among things like advocacy, incitement, and fighting words. These are not trivial, unimportant, or tangential matters, for the life of man upon the Earth is one of conflict; even times of peace are seldom entirely free from violence, and they are often ephemera. A man must always do his duty, and at times that duty may demand violence — the police officer who protects his city, the soldier who defends his nation, the housefather who defends his home. We are not and cannot be more moral than God, and of Himself He says: “The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is His name.” Show Notes Brandenburg v.

A Operação Lava Jato completou 10 anos da deflagração da primeira fase da investigação no dia 17 de março. Na última década, a operação mexeu no xadrez político nacional ao enquadrar criminalmente e prender ex-presidentes da República, parlamentares, os grandes empreiteiros do setor de infraestrutura, doleiros e ex-mandatários de postos estratégicos da Petrobras, pilhados no maior escândalo de corrupção e cartel já visto no País.  A ofensiva sem paralelo de Moro e dos procuradores no combate à corrupção elevou a Lava Jato ao topo, reconhecida em todo o País e no exterior como a nova Operação Mãos Limpas que, nos anos 1990, também acuou grandes empresários e políticos metidos em negócios escusos na Itália. De Lula, a força-tarefa ganhou a alcunha “República de Curitiba”. A Lava Jato perdeu força a partir de 2018, quando o então juiz Sérgio Moro, que conduziu a operação, aceitou o convite de Jair Bolsonaro, que acabara de se eleger presidente, para assumir o Ministério da Justiça e Segurança Pública.  O movimento político do magistrado, que havia condenado o então ex-presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva – sentença confirmada por outras instâncias judiciais, inclusive o Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) –, alijando o petista das eleições daquele ano, abriu espaço para especulações sobre as intenções do ex-juiz e dos procuradores que formaram a poderosa força-tarefa do Ministério Público Federal baseada em Curitiba. Em 2019, um novo revés. Críticos da operação aumentaram o tom dos questionamentos após mensagens trocadas por procuradores e Moro, acessadas por um audacioso hacker, se tornarem públicas. O conteúdo, revelado pelo site The Intercept Brasil, indicava uma parceria entre o então juiz e os procuradores na condução da Lava Jato, uma proximidade que, na avaliação de ministros do Supremo, violou a Constituição e regras básicas do Direito. Embora tenha sido um importante avalista da Lava Jato nos primeiros anos da investigação, o STF impôs derrotas severas à operação, sobretudo depois que vieram a público as mensagens da Vaza Jato. Os ministros iniciaram um movimento de ‘contenção de danos', para evitar que a imagem do Judiciário fosse arranhada pelas polêmicas de Curitiba. No ‘Estadão Notícias' de hoje, nós vamos conversar com a repórter do Estadão, Julia Affonso, que acompanhou de perto a Operação Lava Jato desde o seu nascimento até seu fim.

Movimentos de esquerda anunciaram que irão realizar, no dia 23 de março, manifestações nas 27 capitais do País. O movimento nasce como reação ao ato do dia 25 de fevereiro, na avenida Paulista, em defesa do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro e que reuniu centenas de milhares de pessoas.Inicialmente, os organizadores planejavam como mote o pedido de prisão de Bolsonaro, mas a causa dividiu as lideranças, que decidiram emplacar o lema “sem anistia para golpista”. No seu discurso em SP, o ex-presidente pediu expressamente uma anistia para os condenados e presos pelos atos do dia 8 de janeiro. As manifestações serão organizadas pelos movimentos de esquerda FPSM (Frente Povo Sem Medo) e Frente Brasil Popular. Ao Estadão, lideranças de esquerda disseram que São Paulo será privilegiada pelo seu histórico de manifestações e pelo resultado obtido por Bolsonaro no último domingo.  Os atos pelo País também terão como pauta o conflito entre Israel e o grupo terrorista Hamas. Segundo organizadores, os movimentos irão prestar solidariedade ao povo palestino e pedir o fim do conflito na região. Os 60 anos do golpe militar de 1964 também serão lembrados. Afinal, o timing e o mote dessa manifestação podem representar um erro e fortalecer ainda mais Bolsonaro? A esquerda hoje tem a mesma capacidade de mobilização espontânea do que a direita? No ‘Estadão Notícias' de hoje, vamos conversar sobre o assunto com o coordenador de ‘Política' do Estadão, em São Paulo, e comentarista da Rádio Eldorado, Ricardo Corrêa.

On Halloween night, 1981, a nun was murdered by a mysterious intruder in the Saint Francis Convent in Amarillo, Texas. Scrambling to put someone behind bars for this heinous crime, as well as others of its kind in the area, police accepted the help of a psychic. And soon after, they arrested the teenager they felt was responsible. But now, more than forty years later, the community is still wondering, was he really behind it? This is the murder of Sister Tadea Benz.

Dred Scott v. Sandford is one of the most infamous cases in Supreme Court history: in 1857, an enslaved person named Dred Scott filed a suit for his freedom and lost. In his decision, Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney wrote that Black men “had no rights which the white man was bound to respect.” One Civil War and more than a century later, the Taneys and the Scotts reunite at a Hilton in Missouri to figure out what reconciliation looks like in the 21st century.

David Souter is one the most private, low-profile justices ever to have served on the Supreme Court. He rarely gives interviews or speeches. Yet his tenure was anything but low profile. Deemed a “home run” nominee by Republicans, Souter defied partisan expectations on the bench and ultimately ceded his seat to a Democratic president. In this episode, the story of how “No More Souters” became a rallying cry for Republicans and inspired a backlash that would change the Court forever.

Recently, On the Media's Micah Loewinger was called to testify in court. He had reported on militia groups who'd helped lead the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Now the government was using his work as evidence in a case against them. Micah wanted nothing to do with it — he worried that participating in the trial would signal to sources that he couldn't be trusted, which would compromise his work. As he considered his options, he uncovered a 1972 case called Branzburg v. Hayes. It involved New York Times reporter Earl Caldwell, who was approached multiple times by the FBI to testify against sources in the Black Panther Party. His case — and its decision — transformed the relationship between journalists and the government. Voices in the episode include: • Micah Loewinger — correspondent for On the Media • Earl Caldwell — former New York Times reporter • Lee Levine — attorney and media law expert • Congressman Jamie Raskin — representing Maryland's 8th District Learn more: • 1972: Branzburg v.

Now that the “viability line” in pregnancy — as defined by Roe v. Wade — is no longer federal law, lawmakers and lawyers are coming up with new frameworks for abortion access at a dizzying rate. In this second part of our series, More Perfect asks: what if abortion law wasn't shaped by men at the Supreme Court, but instead by people who know what it's like to be pregnant, to have abortions, and to lose pregnancies? We hear from women on the front lines of the next legal battle over abortion in America. Voices in the episode include: • Mary J. Browning — pro bono lawyer for The Justice Foundation • Dr. Shelley Sella — OBGYN (retired) • Greer Donley — University of Pittsburgh School of Law professor • Jill Wieber Lens — University of Arkansas School of Law professor Learn more: • 1973: Roe v.

When the justices heard oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the landmark abortion case, one word came up more than any other: viability. The viability line was at the core of Roe v. Wade, and it's been entrenched in the abortion rights movement ever since. But no one seems to remember how this idea made its way into the abortion debate in the first place. This week on More Perfect, we trace it back to the source and discover how a clerk and a couple of judges turned a fuzzy medical concept into a hard legal line.

This week, we revisit one of the most important Supreme Court cases you've probably never heard of: Baker v. Carr, a redistricting case from the 1960s, which challenged the justices to consider what might happen if they stepped into the world of electoral politics. It's a case so stressful that it pushed one justice to a nervous breakdown, put another justice in the hospital, brought a boiling feud to a head, and changed the course of the Supreme Court — and the nation — forever.

Unlike other branches of government, the Supreme Court operates with almost no oversight. No cameras are allowed in the courtroom, no binding code of ethics, and records of their activities are incredibly hard to get. So how do reporters uncover the activities of the nine most powerful judges in the country? Live from the Logan Symposium on Investigative Reporting at UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism, host Julia Longoria talks to journalists behind bombshell investigations of the Court and its justices and how Clarence Thomas' personal relationships intersect with his professional life. Voices in the episode include: • Jo Becker — New York Times reporter in the investigative unit • Justin Elliott — ProPublica reporter Learn more: • "The Long Crusade of Clarence and Ginni Thomas" by Danny Hakim and Jo Becker • "Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire" by Joshua Kaplan, Justin Elliott and Alex Mierjeski • "Billionaire Harlan Crow bought property from Clarence Thomas.

To many Americans, Clarence Thomas makes no sense. For more than 30 years on the Court, he seems to have been on a mission — to take away rights that benefit Black people. As a young man, though, Thomas listened to records of Malcolm X speeches on a loop and strongly identified with the tenets of Black Nationalism. This week on More Perfect, we dig into his writings and lectures, talk to scholars and confidants, and explore his past, all in an attempt to answer: what does Clarence Thomas think Clarence Thomas is doing?
