Flávio Bolsonaro landed in Miami and then said he did not flee Brazil

Flavio Bolsonaro, the defeated candidate in Brazil's presidential election, received a visa from Donald Trump and quickly traveled to Miami. He claimed he left Brazil not to escape but to protect his family, describing himself as a victim of a coup and political persecution. His passport was invalidated amid a criminal investigation in Brazil, where he faces multiple inquiries, including corruption and money laundering related to financing a film about his father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, who is under house arrest for a coup attempt. Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva criticized Bolsonaro's swift departure, suggesting that those with nothing to hide have no reason to flee. Trump commented on the situation, stating he would not get involved but believed Bolsonaro was treated unfairly.
