Overview

• Flávio Bolsonaro said his father suffered severe hiccups, vomiting and low blood pressure, and family members said he will stay overnight for observation with intravenous medication.
• The hospital visit is his second since Sunday, when doctors removed eight skin lesions and noted iron-deficiency anemia and signs of a recent pneumonia.
• Bolsonaro remains under house arrest after a 4–1 Supreme Court conviction and a 27-year, three-month sentence, with up to 60 days for the panel to publish its decision before initial motions can be filed.
• President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defended the verdict in a New York Times op-ed and criticized U.S. actions, as President Donald Trump upheld a 50% tariff on many Brazilian goods, sanctioned Justice Alexandre de Moraes and revoked visas for most justices.
• Bolsonaro’s allies are pursuing congressional amnesty and potential future pardons, and a separate federal court ordered him to pay 1 million reais in damages over racist remarks made in 2021.
