Outgoing Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has left the country for the United States, avoiding the inauguration of incoming President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who defeated him in the country’s October elections.

Bolsonaro left Brazil on Friday, reportedly flying to the US state of Florida after giving a final address to his followers, some of whom have pushed for a military coup in the aftermath of his election loss.

For years, Bolsonaro spread anti-democratic rhetoric and sowed doubt about the integrity of Brazil’s election system, hinting that he would refuse to step down if he lost the election against his left-wing rival.

Following his defeat on October 31, Bolsonaro did not explicitly concede but stated that he would follow the country’s constitution. He served a single term as president.


Jail the ecocidal asshole.
 
Bolsonaro may be looking for some further election-denying advice from El Trumpo.


Haw, haw.....................................haw.
 
Why is the US sheltering Bolsonaro ? He should be in jail in Brazil.

For the last four years Brazil’s rainforests bled. “They bled like never before,” said Felipe Finger as he prepared to venture into the jungle with his assault rifle to staunch the environmental carnage inflicted on the Amazon under the former far-right president Jair Bolsonaro.

The group’s objective was Xitei, one of the most isolated corners of the Yanomami Indigenous territory on Brazil’s northern border with Venezuela. Tens of thousands of illegal miners devastated the region during Bolsonaro’s environmentally calamitous 2019-2023 presidency, hijacking Indigenous villages, banishing health workers, poisoning rivers with mercury, and prompting what his leftist successor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has called a premeditated genocide.
