Quick Glance: Elon Musk's Clash with Brazil's Supreme Court
- Serial entrepreneur Elon Musk has been publicly criticizing Alexandre de Moraes, one of Brazil's Supreme Court judges, for the past week.
- The dispute revolves around X, a social media company owned by Mr. Musk, which announced on April 6th that a Brazilian court had ordered it to block a set of 'popular' accounts or face hefty fines.
- Mr. Moraes then initiated an inquiry against Mr. Musk for obstruction of justice, leading Mr. Musk to claim that censorship in Brazil is worse than in any other country where the platform operates.
- The row highlights the power of Brazil's Supreme Court and the debate on regulating social media without harming freedom of speech, which is a crucial battleground in Brazil.

Quick Glance: Brazil Moves to Relax Fiscal Targets Set a Year Ago
- The leftist administration of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva wants more flexibility on budget surplus goals
- Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s government is seeking to loosen its own budget targets as investor concerns rise about the risk of fiscal slippage in Latin America’s largest economy
- Ministers intend to balance the budget next year, replacing the previous goal for income to exceed outgoings by 0.5 per cent of gross domestic product
- Analysts warn that the current deficit targets are unrealistic and likely to be tweaked, prompting investors to express concerns about Brazil’s economic approach under Lula

Quick Glance: Bolsonaro Mobilizes Supporters in Rio
- Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro rallied thousands of supporters in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday to boost his political capital after losing a reelection bid in October 2022 and facing allegations of involvement in a coup.

- Bolsonaro emphasized that his government never operated outside the bounds of the constitution and addressed accusations of involvement in manipulating decrees to overturn the 2022 election results.
