Maybe he wants to get out before the communists take over and destroy the country.

Interesting that he left for the period of the inauguration. More interesting he went to the USA/Miami.

I don’t blame mr. Bolsonaro. Whatever the commies touch, they ruin.

Or maybe he wants to get out before they throw him in prison or kill him.

That is what I was thinking.

Declare a government-in-exile perhaps? He brought his staff.

Why would he come here? Biden would extradite him on false charges in a heartbeat.

Probably leaving so they can’t arrest and kill him.

Bolsonaro knows he’s a dead man, no matter where he goes into exile; he’ll be Riocided because he refuses to join the globalists. But he might be able to gain some more time by being in Miami with the few hundred thousand anti-socialist Brazilians immigrants already there.

“maybe he wants to get out before they throw him in prison or kill him.”

That’s what I figure.

Do we have an extradition treaty with Brazil?

His decision to leave comes as Brazil’s government issued an ordinance on Friday authorizing five civil servants to accompany “future ex-president” Bolsonaro to Miami, Florida, between January 1 and 30, 2023.

Bolsonaro's party at least did the right thing by him with only a few days left before the transition. Better than what the Repubs did for Trump on January 6, 2021, which was a big fat nothing spelled M-I-K-E-P-E-N-C-E.
