Messages revealed by The Intercept show Eduardo directing the transfer of "the maximum possible" resources to the US. On March 21, 2025, he wrote to an intermediary: "Ideally the resources would already be in the USA. From USA to USA is easy," warning that smaller transfers could delay the process by "about 6 months." Eduardo mentioned Altieris Santana, controller of the Havengate Development Fund LP in Texas, as available to "hold personal meetings with whoever." ?

"Os investigadores apuram se recursos repassados pelo ex-banqueiro Daniel Vorcaro, do Banco Master, a pedido do senador e pré-candidato à Presidência Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ), teriam sido usados para custear o ex-deputado federal Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL) nos Estados Unidos."
The former deputy currently lives in a mansion valued at R$ 6 million in Southlake, Texas, according to Intercept reporting. The four-bedroom property with pool and 424 square meters was advertised for rent at R$ 30,000 monthly until February 2026. Eduardo had publicly declared facing financial difficulties and having assets blocked by Brazilian courts. ✓

"O ideal seria haver os recursos já nos EUA. Que dos EUA para o EUA é tranquilo. Se a empresa brasileira a enviar aos EUA não tiver aquele grande orçamento que mencionamos como exemplo, será problemático. Vai ser necessário fazer as remessas aos poucos e isto tardaria cerca de 6 meses, calculamos", disse Eduardo em mensagem para Miranda"
Flávio Bolsonaro admitted in May to negotiating R$ 134 million with Vorcaro for the film, of which R$ 61 million was actually transferred. The senator claimed it was a private sponsorship contract and visited Vorcaro after the banker's arrest to "put an end" to the partnership. Justice Alexandre de Moraes referred to the Attorney General's Office a request to expand the investigation into Eduardo Bolsonaro. ✓
