Brazilian President Lula slammed US visa sanctions on judges presiding over the coup case against former leader Jair Bolsonaro, Donald Trump's far-right ally.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro will wear an electronic ankle monitor on orders from the Supreme Court, where he is on trial for allegedly masterminding a coup plot to remain in office despite his defeat in the 2022 election.

A Brazilian judge's order involving a U.S. citizen has intensified global free speech tensions over alleged online censorship.

Brazil’s Supreme Court upheld much of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s decree that increased taxes on financial transactions, providing the embattled leftist a fiscal boost ahead of next year’s election.

Brazil’s federal police accused former president Jair Bolsonaro and 35 others of involvement in a sprawling scheme that used the country’s intelligence agency to spy on members of the judiciary, lawmakers and journalists.
