Bolsonaro reappears at conservative conference in Florida

Brazilian senator Flávio Bolsonaro made his first public appearance since leaving Brazil at the CPAC annual meeting in Mar-a-Lago, Florida. He attended alongside his family and participated in a forum with actor Jim Caviezel. Bolsonaro spoke about faith and future expectations, emphasizing divine control over circumstances. He arrived in the U.S. on October 28 and declined to disclose details about his departure from Brazil, claiming he acted alone. Reports suggest that a White House official arranged his flight, and Trump directly authorized his entry into the U.S. Flávio's brother, Eduardo Bolsonaro, also attended the event, having lived in the U.S. since early 2025, facing legal issues in Brazil. CPAC is a significant gathering for conservative politics, founded in 1974, where various political figures and activists convene to discuss strategies.
