Is Bolsonaro still hiding out in Florida or did he return to Brazil?

Way to look like dipshits, Americans.

No, we have Supreme Court at home.

Supreme Court at home: nowhere near as good as the kind as you get in Brazilian restaurants

The difference is Brazil knows what authoritarianism looks like, and they don't want more of it.

No. He's been in Brazil for awhile. One year ago, he tried to hide in Hungary's embassy and spent 2 nights there.

But one of his sons is in the US after taking a license from the lower house.

Should also be tried for crimes against humanity (as in, axing the shit out of the Rainforest).
