Did ICE go after him?

The fate of Tsar Nicholas II comes to mind when I think of wealthy out of touch ruling families.

One of the biggest indicators of whether a country is a fascist country is that other fascists flee to that country.
Theyre not sending their best. Some are criminals, some are fascists.
What a bunch of garbage all around. If only people stopped electing asshole criminals like him, orange and others around the globe. Stop being idiots and stop electing pos like these. Stop thinking they're "strong" and want to "feel strong" too by proxy or whatever stupid psych bs used as an excuse. Be best!
Well, the US famously don't like immigrants, so I'm sure the fine boys from ICE will sort him out.
What?
What do you mean it doesn't matter because he's rich?
Well, that's an oddly unprincipled stance to take. So, perfectly good foreign nationals with low net worth will be incarcerated but literally the devil himself would not if he had wealth?
Yes I know who Elon Musk is..
Seems kinda ... cowardly.
Can't wait to see what cabinet position he gets.
If Trump wants fuck him and he dyes his hair blonde, maybe he could be the new press secretary.
He'll declare himself President in exile.
And the Untied States will invade Brazil to install him as president. I wish I was kidding and didn't see this as a real possibility
Arrest him
I miss the days when wanabe dictators would flee for Russia…
We've always collected them. The Shah, Batista, Santa Anna, the police chief who executed a prisoner in Saigon, President Thieu, that dumb woman who thought she would get put in power in Venezuela if she gave Trump her Nobel Peace prize.
We almost had Napoleon I too (that would have been pretty cool though)
What other Brazilian would be able to fly here on a questionable passport (seeing as he was ordered to surrender it) with no clear plans to ever go back to Brazil? I promise if he was pregnant they would kick his ass back home after some torture.

Perhaps his brother, Eduardo Bolsonaro, who has already been living in the US while facing an arrest warrant in Brazil.
Criminals used to flee America. Now we're importing them and giving them government jobs. I hate this timeline
A Latin American illegally entering the US on a revoked passport? How much would you bet ICE would cuff him at the airport if he was anyone else?
Brazil showing the US how it's done. Trump should've been that scared after Jan 6.
The US is now THE rogue state.
Call ICE on the fucker.
It blows my mind just thinking this guy almost won the presidency of the second biggest country of the continent. Two days ago he was voting and lecturing about democracy.
If Dems win in a landslide house and Senate I forsee Trump fleeing on his Saudi gifted plane to Saudi Arabia
The Dems aren't going to do shit. They'll continue their insider trading and send a few really strongly worded tweets. Then they'll go to his events and invite his family to their personal events. The rich protect the rich.
lol if dems win they'll shrug and let it all go so the country can "heal". Same thing happened after Watergate and Iran Contra. Rich people don't face consequences here
More info from the similar Guardian article:
Bolsonaro allies told Metrópoles [news outlet] that he would land in Florida on Tuesday afternoon and planned to request political asylum. “The Donald Trump administration has been informed,” the website added.
A US state department spokesperson said Bolsonaro and his family would be granted visas “to allow them entry into the United States.”
Bolsonaro has had Italian citizenship since 2023 and reportedly possesses a passport from the European country.
Lula slammed what he called Bolsonaro’s “shameful” decision to flee. “This is what the family Bolsonaro are like. Brazil is their second homeland. Their first homeland is licking the boots of the US, as he’s become accustomed to doing,” he said at an event celebrating his 81st birthday in Brasília.
Wait until he plays "President in Exile" in the US until Trump installs him back home, Venezuela-style.
So... Trump's nominating him for a UN position as well, right?
