Moraes denies defense request to reactivate Carla Zambelli's social media accounts.
The profiles of the pro-Bolsonaro congresswoman on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Telegram, TikTok, Gettr, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn were suspended following a ruling by the TSE (Superior Electoral Court).
247 - The president of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE), Alexandre de Moraes, denied the request made by the defense of federal deputy Carla Zambelli (PL-SP) to reconsider the decision that blocked the social media accounts of the pro-Bolsonaro parliamentarian, who defended a coup.Carla's profiles on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Telegram, TikTok, Gettr, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn were suspended following a ruling by the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) on November 1st.
According to the court decision, the Bolsonaro supporter requested that "the four-star generals take measures to enforce Article 142 of the Federal Constitution, arguing that the electoral process was fraudulent." Excerpts from the decision were published by [source name/source]. Folha de S.Paulo newspaper.
"It is clear, therefore, that even without social media, the applicant insists on encouraging anti-democratic acts in defense of crimes against democracy and also uses followers to spread false information. For this reason, the request to reactivate the applicant's social media accounts cannot be granted because its purpose is to destabilize institutions and advocate for criminal acts, an attitude that goes beyond the right she invokes to use said networks to communicate with her voters," stated Moraes' decision.
Other side
Through her press office, the congresswoman stated that Moraes' decision was "monocratic," meaning it was approved solely by the president of the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) and not by other ministers of the court.
"Well, since we never know how Alexandre de Moraes will interpret our videos, this is probably the last video I'll make for you until this situation is reversed somehow," said the congresswoman.
"Furthermore, he ordered the blocking of random accounts belonging to supporters, individuals, and citizens who shared my videos. In other words, yet another reason for me not to publish or share my videos because these people risk having their accounts blocked. He really succeeded. He practically silenced a congresswoman. A female congresswoman, the most voted-for in Brazil."
