The Federal Attorney General’s Office also requested authorization to share evidence. In the request sent to STF Minister Alexandre de Moraes, the AGU requested access to the entire content or “authorization to share evidence of these procedures, so that the body can analyze, based on the information contained therein, the possible adoption of measures of a civil nature and administrative in defense of the Union’s interests”.
Twitter Files Brazil is a series of emails released on X about two weeks ago. Musk criticized and attacked Moraes based on these publications. These are messages exchanged between employees of the former Twitter in 2020 and 2022 reporting and complaining about court decisions that determined the exclusion of content in investigations involving the dissemination of fake news.
The list of leaked documents was under judicial secrecy. They belong to the investigation opened by the STF, which investigates the undemocratic acts of January 8, 2023.
In a preliminary examination, it is possible to deduce that the evidence of the illegal acts allegedly committed can be extracted from the fact that, in violation of judicial determination, information classified, within the scope of criminal and electoral proceedings, as confidential, was disclosed. [tal fato] attracts to this central entity (Union) the desire that those possibly responsible for the practice of possibly criminal conduct that may be investigated be criminally punished, in accordance with the Law.
