BRASILIA - President Jair Bolsonaro slammed Brazil’s Supreme Court on Thursday for investigating an alleged disinformation and intimidation campaign involving his supporters, as a political crisis mushroomed amid the country’s accelerating COVID-19 outbreak.
“The Supreme Court investigation is targeting those who support me. They want to remove the media that I have in my favor,” he told reporters. Bolsonaro’s tensions with the judiciary had already boiled over last week, when a judge released a video of a cabinet meeting where one of Bolsonaro’s ministers said the Supreme Court justices should be put in jail.
