Far-right senator and family land in US after crossing from Brazil into Argentina and then flying via Ecuador
A jet carrying the Brazilian far-right senator Flávio Bolsonaro has landed in Miami, Florida, where the losing candidate in Sunday’s presidential election runoff left the airport under police escort without speaking to the press.
The Gulfstream IV, registered as LV-JQW, left Guayaquil in Ecuador earlier in the day.
After losing Sunday’s election to the incumbent president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Bolsonaro disappeared for more than 24 hours, until Argentina’s migration authorities said he had entered the country by land on Tuesday night.
There, he boarded the Gulfstream IV. The aircraft had been parked at Puerto Iguazú airport since the early hours of the previous morning, when the first reports emerged in Argentinian media that he intended to flee on it.
Nothing screams Nationalism like fleeing your nation
Ted cruz disaproves this message.
I fled my nation (the US). I also have so much disdain for the country that has only caused me harm and trauma that I refuse to be labeled as such, I even switched to using the passport of my birth country (in part because the US won’t let me renew)
So yeah, agreed
