The post-Carnival period has not improved the atmosphere within Brazil's Supreme Court (STF), as tensions remain high among the ministers. Reports indicate discontent following a leak and the suspicion that a crucial meeting about Minister Dias Toffoli and the Master case was recorded, breaking internal trust significantly. One member of the STF stated that the weight of the incident cannot simply be dismissed as the festivities conclude.

Adding to the tension, the Federal Police conducted an operation during the Carnival season stemming from an inquiry initiated by Minister Alexandre de Moraes. This operation has potential explosive implications and could shed light on various attacks against the STF. However, the decision to include all ministers in the suspects for potential espionage has drawn criticism from Moraes' colleagues, as it raises serious concerns about trust and internal unity within the Court.

Currently, there is uncertainty regarding whether the Supreme Court President, Edson Fachin, will initiate an investigation into the leaked recordings. The revelations and ongoing investigations could significantly impact the robustness of the STF's operations and public confidence in its members, further complicating the political landscape in Brazil as these tensions unfold among the nation's highest court officials.
