    Don’t be a criminal, authoritarian grifter, but be best and no issues to run from. It’s always self-caused problems with these guys, and same pattern of controlling people blame minorities and enrich the wealthy more. Do better and stop electing authoritarian criminals.

    I just wonder how the voters feel about this. I couldn’t imagine voting for someone only to have them immediately skip the country because they lost. What a great show of strength and power. 🙄

    I do realize I may be allocating too much introspection to the majority of voters of Bolsonaro.

      I’m sure they had the talking points ready to go, right wing misinformation machine will explain it away and his radicalized voters will accept it without question.

      His dad also lost and fled to Florida. The people who vote for those guys are convinced that they’re escaping political purge and repression and all that stuff, they pretend that the left is doing a tyranny so their side is right to go in exile for safety. Ignoring the part where he’s being arrested for all the fraud they commit, they claim it’s a false pretense. You know, classic projection, because that’s what they want to do when they win.

    One day he’s vowing to stay and fight the bogus charges against him…the next day he’s sneaking out the back and running for the nearest private jet headed for anywhere but here.

        He skipped out, without handing it over.

        Apparently, he crossed the border into Argentina, where the Milei government claims he provided valid travel documents…whatever that means.

          He had two passports. His Brazilian one was revoked/suspended, but he used his other to leave the country.

          And then he had the Secretary of state of the USA sneak him into Florida illegally, and I’m 99.99999999999% sure you don’t need a passport for that.

          It means that a passport only matters to the extent that the countries being traveled between care about it.

          You can travel between Mercosul countries with a valid national ID document. But the question is how he was let into the US with a canceled passport.

            A country can let in whoever they want based on any rules they like. The passport is just an identity document used in a system of agreements between countries to normalize travel

            To get into the county legally you need some kind of visa, and Trump had one provided to him

        Passport only matters if your nothing to go through customs on the way out of a country, and customs on the way in.

        If they even managed to get it from him, doubtful. Even if they invalidated it, given that Trump granted him an emergency Visa, I doubt they care about whether his Passport is valid.

    Hours after his arrival in Florida, he posted a statement on social media declaring himself the “true president” of Brazil, before revising the wording a few minutes later to describe himself as the “leader” of the country.

    A Bolsonaro ally who published an earlier version of the statement bearing Brazil’s old coat of arms, abandoned in the sixties, said it had been a ChatGPT error.
