Story summary

Flavio Bolsonaro, son of former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, fled to the United States after losing the 2026 presidential election on October 25, 2026. Despite a Supreme Court order to hand over his passports and a travel ban imposed by Justice Alexandre de Moraes, Bolsonaro left Brazil for the US. The White House reportedly offered him a visa to evade corruption charges. Upon his departure, Bolsonaro faced ridicule online and media outrage in Brazil, with some declaring themselves as leaders of social media platforms or Brazilian society. He is now isolated politically, with analysts suggesting his move was intended to maintain influence over conservative supporters despite the overwhelming victory of leftist candidate Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
