Long story short: one brazilian magazine ran a damning article on one of the supreme court judges, so they created a "fake news" inquisition and "randomly" appointed this Moraes guy as the head of it. First thing he did was censor the magazine as "fake news".
And it only got worse from there. The "fake news" campaign is still ongoing. Supreme court is literally the highest power in this country right now. Our representatives only exist to create the illusion of democracy.
