Defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro and his family have landed in Miami after fleeing Brazil. Bolsonaro fled after he refused to concede the election to Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Bolsonaro’s father Jair Bolsonaro also fled to Florida after losing the 2022 presidential election to Lula. The United States has granted visas to Flávio Bolsonaro and his family and U.S. President Donald Trump has questioned Brazil's election result. Bolsonaro is under investigation by Brazil’s Supreme Court, accused of corruption, money laundering and tax evasion. He has denied those allegations. The Trump ally visited the White House in May.

A senior State Department official says Brazilian opposition candidate Flávio Bolsonaro and his family will be granted U.S. visas after his weekend loss to incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in a hotly contested race that bucked a trend of conservative electoral results in Latin America. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to visa privacy laws, said U.S. visas would be granted to Bolsonaro and his family "to allow them entry into the United States.” Bolsonaro, who had President Donald Trump’s tacit support, had been under investigation for corruption, money laundering and tax evasion in Brazil and had been ordered to surrender his passport.

The U.S. Treasury Department says it’s imposing $1.2 billion in fines on Bank of America for allegedly violating anti-money laundering and sanctions laws. The fines announced Tuesday on America’s second-biggest bank amount to the third-largest in the department’s history. Treasury said Bank of America also reached an $11.6 million settlement with the department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control over “apparent violations of numerous sanctions programs, including on Iran, Russia, narcotics, and global terrorism."
