Defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro has left his native country, despite being barred from doing so by the Supreme Court. Where he is now is unclear, though many expect the 45-year-old senator and his family to appear in the US after a State Department official confirmed Tuesday that they had been granted US visas. When asked about Bolsonaro's whereabouts, President Trump said, "I heard he was in Argentina," per the BBC. Argentine officials say the Trump ally, his wife, and two daughters crossed by land into the country late on Tuesday before boarding a private flight to Ecuador, per the AP. The plane set out for Miami minutes after touching down in Guayaquil, according to FlightRadar24.
After claiming he had no plans to leave Brazil, Bolsonaro missed a deadline to turn over his passports—a consequence of an investigation into alleged money laundering, per the BBC. He's also under investigation for alleged corruption and tax evasion. Bolsonaro has denied wrongdoing and painted the attempt to seize his travel documents as intimidation. Still, he vowed to remain in Brazil following President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's surprise re-election. While Bolsonaro's Liberal Party accepted the result, Bolsonaro called for the contest to be annulled, describing a two-hour voting extension as a "dirty trick," even though his own party requested it, the BBC reports. His younger brother, Eduardo Bolsonaro, lives in Texas but was seen Sunday in Miami.
