Brazilian Supreme Federal Court justices hold lifetime tenure until mandatory retirement at age 75, creating a high institutional barrier to removal that has kept Alexandre de Moraes in office since his 2017 appointment. Multiple impeachment requests, largely from opposition senators citing his rulings on investigations and social media restrictions, have stalled in the Senate without reaching the required two-thirds vote threshold. De Moraes has continued issuing decisions through mid-2026 on related matters, including proceedings involving former President Jair Bolsonaro, with no legislative or judicial developments altering his eligibility or status. External pressures such as prior U.S. sanctions, which were lifted in late 2025, have not shifted the domestic requirements for Senate action. This structural continuity underpins the strong trader consensus that he will remain on the court.
