Federal deputy on leave Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) published a video on his Instagram profile last Thursday, 10, with threats to Minister Alexandre de Moraes , of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) . The parliamentarian, who is on leave in the United States , challenged Moraes to include US President Donald Trump in the fake news investigation. Contacted through the STF's press office, the minister has not yet commented.

The former president's son said the judge "is not a man," "is weak," and "is afraid" of the American leader.

"Why don't you (Alexandre de Moraes) do the same thing with Trump that you did with me? That you did with Allan dos Santos and Elon Musk... Why don't you put Trump in the fake news investigation?", asks the politician.

"I'm pointing this out to prove that Alexandre de Moraes isn't a man. Alexandre de Moraes is a wimp, Alexandre de Moraes is scared, Alexandre de Moraes isn't sleeping because he knows the Magnitsky Act will soon come into effect," the former president's son teased. The congressman also said that Trump is unpredictable and could also target Moraes' wife.

"The way Trump is, (the Magnitsky Act) won't just come after him (Alexandre de Moraes), it will probably also come after his wife, Fábio Shor, and other Federal Police officials. I don't know... Now everything is in Trump's hands... And he's unpredictable. He could come after the Attorney General's Office," warned the congressman, referring to Federal Police Chief Shor and the Attorney General's Office.

The delegate and attorney general Paulo Gonet came under the radar of Bolsonaro supporters due to the investigations that led to the indictment of former president Jair Bolsonaro.

The law cited by Jair Bolsonaro's son allows the United States government to punish public officials from other countries for human rights violations.

"If you are a brave person, Alexandre de Moraes, you certainly won't be afraid of President Trump, and you will treat him the same way you have treated us Brazilians, who have no one to turn to.
