President Donald Trump’s media company and video-sharing platform Rumble are escalating a closely watched legal battle against the Brazilian government, arguing that a top Brazilian judge attempted to censor U.S. users and regulate speech through secret overseas court orders.

The lawsuit filed by the companies in February names Brazilian Supreme Federal Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who has become a target of criticism after he ordered social media platforms to suspend accounts accused of spreading disinformation, among other past orders targeting U.S.-based social media platforms like Elon Musk’s X. The parent company over Trump’s Truth Social media platform and Rumble argued Moraes’s orders against their companies reached beyond Brazil’s borders and unlawfully targeted speech protected by the First Amendment.
