Where in the world is Flávio Bolsonaro?
Flávio Bolsonaro has reportedly fled to the United States after narrowly losing Brazil's presidential election under unusual circumstances and after Brazil's left-wing government demanded he surrender his passports.
Bolsonaro, son of convicted former President Jair Bolsonaro, has left Brazil for the U.S., two sources told CNN Tuesday. A U.S. official then seemingly confirmed the report, telling the outlet that Bolsonaro was headed for Florida before stating that his destination was unclear, CNN said.
'Do not recognize these elections.'
Reuters, citing three sources, reported that he had left Brazil for the U.S. One source even said that the Trump administration had granted asylum to Bolsonaro and his immediate family, the outlet reported.
"After months of intense work that has been unfairly thwarted, I am not in the mood to speak to the press," said Paulo Figueiredo, an unofficial family spokesman.
Bolsonaro lost Sunday's runoff to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva by about 3.6 points after Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin extended voting by two hours, stirring fraud suspicions. Zanin was Lula's personal defense lawyer until Lula put him on the court in 2023.
Lula was previously found guilty of corruption and money-laundering charges. He spent over 550 days in prison before he was freed in 2019. The Supreme Court annulled his convictions in 2021 on jurisdictional grounds.
The elder Bolsonaro is serving a 27-year sentence under house arrest for what some claim was a political hit job. Flávio Bolsonaro also faces allegations of money laundering and other crimes.
"It is impossible to accept the result of the elections under these conditions," Flávio Bolsonaro said Sunday night, vowing to seek annulment.

"Do not recognize these elections," Eduardo Bolsonaro, Flávio's brother, said in an X video. On Tuesday, Eduardo called reports that his brother had absconded a "lie," CNN reported.
Justice Alexandre de Moraes signed a sealed order the night of the presidential election demanding that Bolsonaro surrender his passports. The order also prohibited Bolsonaro from leaving Brazil.
Federal Police canceled the passports Tuesday amid reports that Bolsonaro had fled the country, according to CNN.
Argentina's Infobae reported that Bolsonaro crossed into the Misiones province to take a private jet, though this report remains unconfirmed. Argentina said it has "no record" of him entering.
“The process is confidential. We do not have any information,” Brazil's Supreme Court told Blaze News when asked about Moraes' passport confiscation order.
The State Department and U.S. Customs and Border Protection did not respond to Blaze News' requests for comment.

Trump offers massive reward for tips on voter fraud
The president said anyone who reported voter fraud would be eligible for a million-dollar reward if it led to an arrest and conviction.
President Donald Trump announced the award on his Truth Social account on Monday, just days before the pivotal midterm election day.
'Only I can make this promise to you.'
"Anybody reporting Voter Fraud in the past Elections, or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election, will be paid $1,000,000 upon the arrest and conviction of those that created the Fraud!" he wrote.
"Thank you for your attention to this matter," he added.
It's unclear what the source of the award money would be.
The Trump administration is currently in a legal feud with California officials over a list of people identified as likely "noncitizen" voters registered to vote.
On Monday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals refused an emergency request from the Department of Justice to force California to segregate mail-in ballots from those on the list.
In September, the president also promised to hand out $5,000 checks as a kind of dividend if Republicans won both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in the midterm elections.
"Very much like a successful company will do a cash distribution to its shareholders," he explained.
"Because we've done so well and because our country is making so much money, that only I can make this promise to you," he added.
