Flavio Bolsonaro, the defeated Brazilian right-wing presidential candidate, denied that any government helped him flee to the United States. He claimed to be the architect of his plan. Bolsonaro also reasserted himself as the real winner of Brazil's presidential election, citing voter fraud and Lola de Silves' claim of increased access to funds as reasons for his loss. He also cited voting machine tampering as a factor that gave him an unfair disadvantage.
