What happened with the court order to surrender his passport?
He skipped out, without handing it over.
Apparently, he crossed the border into Argentina, where the Milei government claims he provided valid travel documents...whatever that means.
And just like that, Argentina became the escape route for Nazis again.

Did they look like this?
It means that a passport only matters to the extent that the countries being traveled between care about it.
Apparently he has a dual citizenship and used his Italian passport to cross the border.
He had two passports. His Brazilian one was revoked/suspended, but he used his other to leave the country.
And then he had the Secretary of state of the USA sneak him into Florida illegally, and I'm 99.99999999999% sure you don't need a passport for that.
You can travel between Mercosul countries with a valid national ID document. But the question is how he was let into the US with a canceled passport.
Didn't Rubio arrange it ?
A country can let in whoever they want based on any rules they like. The passport is just an identity document used in a system of agreements between countries to normalize travel
To get into the county legally you need some kind of visa, and Trump had one provided to him
Special arrangements with the Trump administration, obviously.
The Golden visa.
He has an Italian passport too, evidently
Passport only matters if your nothing to go through customs on the way out of a country, and customs on the way in.
If they even managed to get it from him, doubtful. Even if they invalidated it, given that Trump granted him an emergency Visa, I doubt they care about whether his Passport is valid.
Customs and immigration are two different checks. The passport has nothing to do with customs.
Had a different passport
