💨 Abstract

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro criticized a French court ruling that banned far-right leader Marine Le Pen from seeking public office for five years, calling it "left-wing judicial activism." Le Pen was convicted of embezzlement, which knocked her out of the 2027 presidential race unless she wins an appeal. Bolsonaro compared this to "lawfare" and accused the left of using judicial activism to maintain power.
