Flavio Bolsonaro Launches Presidential Campaign Backed by Milei and Netanyahu

Flavio Bolsonaro formally kicked off his 2026 presidential bid, securing endorsements from right-wing leaders Javier Milei and Benjamin Netanyahu, but polls show him trailing Lula da Silva. The launch drew limited attendance, with Bolsonaro’s father appearing only via an AI-generated video. Milei framed the race as a fight against socialism, while Netanyahu offered support in a short video message. The campaign faces domestic headwinds over foreign meddling concerns, including visa denials to Trump officials seeking meetings with Brazil’s election authorities.

Tight race: Lula vs. Bolsonaro in a dead heat ahead of Brazil’s election

Datafolha’s May 12–13 poll shows Lula da Silva and Flavio Bolsonaro tied at 45% each in a head-to-head for Brazil’s presidency, with 9% voting null and 1% undecided among 2,004 respondents, signaling a neck-and-neck race ahead of October’s vote. The piece also notes controversy surrounding Flavio’s campaign financing for a private film about Jair Bolsonaro and related investigations, as Lula’s lead narrows in the face of ongoing scrutiny of the Bolsonaro family.

Bolsonaro Campaign Faces New Scrutiny Over Banco Master Ties

Leaked audio messages link Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro to Daniel Vorcaro, the jailed ex‑CEO at the center of Banco Master’s multibillion-dollar fraud case. The messages allegedly show Bolsonaro seeking financial support for a film about his father, a development that could undermine his anti‑corruption positioning and threaten his campaign, though analysts say he remains a leading candidate and currently polls show him near Lula.
