Tens of thousands of supporters of right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro heeded his call and turned out to rallies in Brazil as he stepped up his attacks on the country’s Supreme Court and threatened to plunge Brazil into a constitutional crisis.

Supporters of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro carry Brazil's national flag along Copacabana Beach on Independence Day in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Tuesday, Sept. 7, 2021.

Bolsonaro got a rousing reception from demonstrators in the capital, Brasilia, and in Sao Paulo, as he lit into the Supreme Court and Justice Alexandre de Moraes for making what he characterized as political arrests.He declared he will no longer abide by rulings from de Moraes, who will assume the presidency of the nation’s electoral tribunal next year, when Bolsonaro will seek reelection.

Bolsonaro spent almost two months calling on supporters to take part in Independence Day rallies around the country that could show his continuing political appeal despite slumping poll ratings and a string of setbacks. On the eve of Tuesday’s protests, he signed a provisional measure sharply limiting social media networks’ ability to remove or block content.Brazil’s Supreme Court said Chief Justice Luiz Fux planned to address Bolsonaro’s comments at the beginning of Wednesday’s session.
