Defeated Brazilian candidate Flávio Bolsonaro lands in Miami after refusing to concede to Lula
Flávio Bolsonaro and his family arrived in Miami on Wednesday after he refused to concede Brazil's presidential election to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and left the country by way of Argentina and Ecuador, the Associated Press reported; the Trump administration approved U.S. visas for the family this week. The senator is under investigation by Brazil's Supreme Court on corruption, money laundering and tax-evasion accusations, and on X he called himself a victim of electoral fraud and political persecution, AP said.
