Brazil's court restrains Bolsonaro for Trump collusion

reuters.com [$]

Brazil's Supreme Court has issued search warrants and imposed restrictions on former President Jair Bolsonaro, prohibiting contact with foreign officials due to alleged collusion with Donald Trump. The court's actions include an ankle monitor and a ban on social media use, stemming from accusations that Bolsonaro sought Trump's interference in Brazilian legal proceedings, including his trial. Federal police raided Bolsonaro's home as part of the investigation. The restrictions follow Trump's criticism of Bolsonaro's trial and threats of tariffs on Brazilian goods, which the court views as an attempt to influence the judicial system. Bolsonaro has called the court's actions "humiliating."
