On the 24th anniversary of 9/11, we honor the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the resilience of the American spirit. America will never forget.

Today, we stand united in remembrance of September 11th. We honor the families who endured loss, the heroes who answered the call, and the service members who continue to protect our freedom. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

The political persecutions by sanctioned human rights abuser Alexandre de Moraes continue, as he and others on Brazil's supreme court have unjustly ruled to imprison former President Jair Bolsonaro. The United States will respond accordingly to this witch hunt.

The United States condemns the use of the law as a political weapon. As a lawyer, a diplomat, and a friend of Brazil 🇧🇷, it pains me to see Justice Moraes laying waste to the rule of law there and driving relations between our two great nations to their darkest point in two centuries. As long as Brazil leaves the fate of our relationship in Justice Moraes’ hands, I see no resolution to this crisis.

Yesterday, four of the five justices on Brazil's Supreme Court voted to sentence former President Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years in prison. This ruling marks a fateful new milestone in sanctioned human rights abuser Justice Moraes' censorship and persecution complex targeting Bolsonaro and his supporters. We take this dark development with the utmost seriousness.
