Brazil Senator Proposes Rule Change to Fast-Track STF Minister Impeachment

Senator Rogério Marinho, coordinator of Flávio Bolsonaro's presidential campaign, introduced a resolution to set deadlines and alter procedures for impeachment requests against Supreme Federal Court (STF) ministers, including mechanisms to bypass the Senate President's decision. This escalates the institutional crisis between the opposition and the STF, potentially increasing political volatility ahead of the 2026 elections.
