g1.globo.com (Portuguese) —

Valdemar Costa Neto, president of Brazil's Liberal Party (PL), posted a photo on Instagram Tuesday with elected Senator Michelle Bolsonaro, stating they discussed the party's future and challenges. The meeting comes amid reports that her stepson, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, left the country. Flávio Bolsonaro is under investigation for money laundering, corruption, and currency evasion, and violated a Supreme Court order to surrender his passport. The Trump administration will grant visas to the senator and his family, according to an American official. In a Monday video, Flávio denied intending to leave Brazil and criticized the court order. On Friday, his brother Eduardo had suggested he leave the country if defeated in the election. Costa Neto also met with other party lawmakers Tuesday.
