He is a well-known corrupt figure. In 2017/2018, he was already under investigation, but his dad won the 2018 election and he was elected senator, and then everything was swept under the rug. If justice had been served, he would have been in prison a long time ago.

It's crazy to me that dual-citizens can become members of the parliament, let along the leader of a country. Citizenship means you have to swear fealty to a country, and having your leader swearing to another country on top of the one you supposedly represent is absolutely insane. Any and all high-level government positions in positions of power…

We have a bilateral extradition treaty with Brazil right? So if they charge him and ask for him back the USA should return him?

“I will hand over my passports and defend myself against this travesty.” That’s Flávio Bolsonaro, the son of Brazil’s former president, after the country’s Supreme Court ordered him to surrender his passports in a money-laundering investigation. He also said he’d “never thought

Why didn't they try to revoke his passports BEFORE the election, Ian? Maybe it's because he was being insulated from legal accountability *because* of his political stature?

For a "political scientist", he sure can't wrap his braincells around how the guy currently hiding in Miami might be considered an immediate flight risk.

Flavio # Bolsonaro 's clandestine escape to the US bewildered # Brazil and triggered a frantic search for his whereabouts. The Supreme Court had ordered the defeated far-right presidential candidate to forfeit his passports after his electoral loss, amid fears he would leave the country due to ongoing investigations against him. But he failed to…

The USA has always supported fascists, imperialists and reactionaries, because that's its own nature. Maybe an exception could be made for FDR but even then, during the Second World War the US military was still segregated, for example.

He is definitely shopping around for a CIA and State Department backed coup isn't he. I really hope Lula has good security because this asshat will likely try something.

"you can do your worst and as long as you support me I'll protect you from the consequences" That's kinda Trump's whole thing right up until he throws you under a bus

He wrote about how good Putin would be for Russia and that he would lay the groundwork for Russia becoming a “middle class” market democracy 26 years ago. His bad takes are a feature, not a bug

I guess florida needs to change its slogan from "the sunshine state" to "the sanctuary state". It does seem that a high portion of the world's ejected criminal, hyper-wealthy, ejected presidents, kings, and poo-bahs end up hiding in florida. https://www. reuters.com/world/americas/tim…
