Jair Bolsonaro hospitalized in Florida

Brazil’s President-elect Jair Bolsonaro has been taken to a Florida hospital with severe abdominal pain. Bolsonaro was stabbed in 2018 and suffered severe abdominal injuries.

According to a media report, Brazil’s ex-president Jair Bolsonaro was taken to a hospital in the US city of Orlando after the riots by thousands of supporters in his home country. According to the Brazilian newspaper “O Globo” on Monday, Bolsonaro suffers from severe abdominal pain. It’s not the first time that right-wing politicians have come to the clinic, even in politically critical situations. Two days before the end of his term on New Year’s Day, he flew with his family to the United States, where he has been in the state of Florida ever since.

At an election campaign event in September 2018, a mentally disturbed man stabbed Bolsonaro and inflicted serious abdominal injuries on him. The ex-military then continued the election campaign from the hospital. The following month he was elected President. Bolsonaro has been hospitalized since then, including after taking office in early 2019, and has had to undergo multiple surgeries.

Bolsonaro supporters storm government quarters

Radical Bolsonaro supporters stormed the government district in the Brazilian capital Brasília on Sunday. They briefly took control of the country’s most important branches of government, penetrating Congress, the Supreme Court and the government seat, Palácio do Planalto. There they rioted, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. It took hours for the security forces to bring the situation back under control.
