Van Hattem: Moraes' impeachment is independent of election

Federal deputy Marcel van Hattem said that the impeachment of Minister Alexandre de Moraes, of the Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), will occur regardless of the result of the presidential elections. The statement was given in the context of pressure on the judiciary and reinforces the thesis that the accountability of ministers of the Court is a demand of society.

According to the parliamentary, the possibility of re-election of President Lula is not considered, because it would be a disaster for the country. The speech signals that the impeachment movement is not conditioned to the electoral scenario, but rather to a pattern defended by opposition sectors.

Impeachment Independent of Election Results

Van Hattem was categorical in stating that the case against Moraes will happen regardless of who is elected president of the Republic. He stressed that the opposition does not work with the hypothesis of re-election of Lula, classifying this scenario as a disaster for the country.

The statement indicates that, for the member, impeachment is a matter of justice and not of political convenience. The source did not detail the next concrete steps for the opening of the process, but the speech suggests that the articulation is already underway.

Receipts from Senators’ Commitments

The deputy also charged the commitment of elected senators to hold Supreme ministers accountable for crimes of responsibility or common crimes. In his assessment, MPs will not have the backing of the population if they change positions after the election.

“This was a demand of Brazilian society, which will not accept a change of opinion of the senators who were elected to fulfill this task,” he said. The speech pressures future senators to keep impeachment as a priority.

Beginning of work in 2027

Van Hattem set a symbolic date for the beginning of the efforts: February 1, 2027. “And on February 1, 2027, we began work on his impeachment and that of some of his colleagues. Democracy and institutions will function fully again,” he said.

The mention of “some of his colleagues” suggests that other ministers of the STF may also be the target of impeachment requests, but the source has not detailed what they would be. The date coincides with the beginning of a new legislature, when elected senators take office.

Political context and reaction

Van Hattem’s statement comes at a time of tension between the legislature and the judiciary, with parliamentarians criticizing STF’s decisions. The deputy did not present new charges against Moraes, but reiterated the need for accountability for alleged crimes.

The source did not detail whether there is formal support from other parliamentarians for the initiative, nor whether the impeachment request has already been filed. The speech, however, indicates that the opposition intends to keep the issue in evidence until 2027.

Next steps

To date, there is no information on the formal filing of a new impeachment request against Moraes. The deputy did not specify what crimes of responsibility or commons would be imputed to the minister.

The Boca no Trombone Portal will continue to follow the developments of this political articulation and the reactions of the STF and the Senate. The expectation is that the issue will gain strength as the elections and the new legislature approach.
