  "account": "Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro arrived in Miami after losing the presidential election on Sunday, denying that he had fled his homeland. He stated, \"I did not flee Brazil; I left for the sake of Brazil,\" adding, \"I departed from a regime of exception so that I could become the leader my people deserve.\" Flávio Bolsonaro claimed he was a victim of a coup d'état and political persecution, and requested protection for his family. He also reiterated unsubstantiated allegations of \"electoral fraud\" which he claimed led to an \"impossible\" outcome in the election. US President Donald Trump had provided visas for Bolsonaro and his family after Brazil revoked his passports due to a criminal investigation. Newly reelected President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva criticized Bolsonaro's secretive exit, stating, \"those who have nothing to hide have nothing to fear.\"",
  "summary": "Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, who landed in Miami after losing the presidential election on Sunday, has said it was never his intention to \"leave my homeland\".",
