Bolsonaro is a genuine flight risk, so it's only logical that Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered full-time monitoring. There's concrete evidence that the far-right leader has plans to flee Brazil in order to escape a decades-long sentence for his coup attempt and the U.S. Embassy is located near his residence.
The lawfare against Bolsonaro is the ultimate example of the Brazilian Supreme Court's dangerous overreach and weaponization. Whether you like Bolsonaro or not, Brazil has been sleepwalking into dictatorship as Alexandre de Moraes continues unchecked, systematically violating constitutional rights to silence the opposition.
