Trump and Milei aided Flávio Bolsonaro's US escape via Italian passport and humanitarian visa
The Wall Street Journal detailed the operation that brought Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro and his family to Florida, following a Supreme Court order to surrender his passport after Sunday's election. The senator arrived Wednesday morning. A small group, including Trump ally Jason Miller and Flávio's brother Eduardo, arranged a chartered jet from Argentina. Trump personally approved entry, and the family used humanitarian parole, allowing a one-year stay. Argentine officials, including Milei aide Santiago Caputo, coordinated the border crossing. Flávio traveled with an Italian passport. He reportedly intends to establish a political operation from exile, while Washington allies push Trump to contest Lula's victory, though the White House has shown little sign of going beyond offering refuge.
