US Revokes Visas of Seven Brazilian Supreme Court Justices

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the revocation of visas for seven Brazilian Supreme Court justices, in addition to Judge Alexandre de Moraes. This action follows the Brazilian Supreme Court's issuance of search warrants and restraining orders against former President Jair Bolsonaro, stemming from allegations that Bolsonaro sought interference from US President Donald Trump in Brazilian courts. Bolsonaro denies the accusations, calling the court's actions cowardly. The move escalates tensions between the US and Brazil and highlights Trump's continued support for Bolsonaro.
