- Flavio's departure followed a Brazilian Supreme Court order from Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre directing him to surrender passports within 24 hours amid ongoing investigations into alleged corruption and money laundering.
- Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews, "Well, I would approve," calling the election "very strange," while Flavio arrived accompanied by his wife Fernanda and their two daughters.
- Brazilian President Lula criticized the departure while addressing supporters outside Alvorada on Tuesday during celebrations marking his 81st birthday, rejecting the senator's exit.
