Former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro returned to Brazil on Thursday night (26), after spending almost a month in Orlando, in the United States. Michelle landed at Brasília Airport wearing a cap and mask against Covid-19. Former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) remains in US territory and still has no confirmed date to return to the country.

Report by People’s Gazette showed that the Liberal Party (PL) has electoral expectations for the former first lady. The race for a seat in the Federal Senate in 2026 is seen as the most viable option to offer Michelle, who is affiliated with the party. More enthusiastic allies do not yet rule out the former first lady as a candidate for vice president on some list – in case Bolsonaro does not run.

Valdemar Costa Neto wants Michelle Bolsonaro to tour the country at events organized by the PL so that she stands out and makes her candidacy viable. The party president’s goal for her and Bolsonaro is for the two to participate in meetings and events coordinated by state and municipal directorates.
