Brazil cancels Flávio Bolsonaro's passports for defying a surrender order; he leaves for Florida anyway.

Clive Rigged. That's a word I'd been saving for the response in verse, and some senator's walked off with it before I'd even scanned the first line.

Gary A response in verse. We've got a landlord who hasn't responded to anything since March, in prose or otherwise, and that's the rigging I live under.

Now we come to the order itself, worth turning over and looking at underneath. Brazil's Supreme Court told Bolsonaro to surrender his passports, over an investigation into money laundering, and underneath, the order did not say what becomes of a senator who simply does not.

Rob Simply does not. That's the house too — the boiler's been making that noise since March, and we've reached an understanding with it instead of a plumber.

Keith An understanding with a boiler. There's an angle in that — bottle it, sell it off the back of the horror stories, have it moving by Thursday.

Two days after Sunday's runoff, on Tuesday, Mr Bolsonaro went anyway. The State Department did not immediately return The Hill's request for comment, and how a man travels on a passport the police had already cancelled is a question that went with him, unanswered.

France 24, which is the paper on this desk, has it as Bolsonaro "heads to US despite cancelled passports." At home, The Hill and Fox News each print the same word: "flees."

You will be looking for an extradition request. There isn't one in these papers; that is what distance is standing in for.

This serves Lula, who won by four million votes and governs regardless of who is in Florida. It costs Brazil's courts their reach: Flávio Bolsonaro is simply not where they can get to him.

Gary Not where they can get to him. I'd give a great deal to learn that trick before the landlord learns where I live.
