“We gave him a pass to come into the country, so we’ll see. But I won’t get involved.”
That’s the president on Wednesday. Won’t get involved.
Meanwhile, according to The New York Times, the private jet that carried Flávio Bolsonaro out of South America was arranged by Jason Miller, a White House communications official.
The plan was set in motion Monday, after Brazilian police told Bolsonaro to turn in his passports. He didn’t. Clearly.
Brazil canceled them and alerted immigration authorities to block his exit. Somehow, he crossed into Argentina anyway. Brazil’s federal police have no record of him leaving.
Then, after landing in Miami, he declared himself “the leader of Brazil.” He lost by 4.4 million votes.
Independent observers certified the result, and dozens of countries have recognized it. The United States isn’t one of them.
Now a U.S. official says his green card will likely be fast-tracked, just like his brother Eduardo’s was in July.
For most immigrants, that process takes years
