Flavio Bolsonaro's US escape jet arranged by White House official, NYT reports
Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro fled to the United States after his father's election defeat, with a private jet arranged by a White House official, according to The New York Times. The plane was organized by Jason Miller, a White House communications staffer, and flew from Argentina to Ecuador for refueling before reaching Miami. The escape plan began Monday after Flavio was ordered to surrender his passports by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. Brazilian Federal Police are investigating the escape route and possible help from businessmen and allies. President Trump called Brazil's elections a "shame" while denying partisanship, and Flavio is expected to seek permanent US residency.
