My first wife went out a bought a car, convertible, without telling me about it. We divorced a year later. Oh yeah, she kept the car for six months and got rid of it. I suppose she thought the car was more important than her marriage at the time.

Kinda goes that you take care of immediate family.

One rule in our house is that family never stays the night. Either side.

Whats the ratio of bills being paid for said household by you compared to your wife?
In the unlikely event said doosh brother-in-law is paying any bills this may skew the actual results.
If you pay more your answer is GTFO.
Unless of course said sister-in-law is hwat, then you have your answer..

Calmly explain to your wife you understand her desire to help her brother, but she should have discussed it with you first.
Let her know that allowing him to stay with you is likely enabling him to avoid dealing with issues he needs to deal with.
Set a fair and firm timeline for his departure that your wife agrees to and then let the brother know.

You fricked up on this one.

She fricked up. She knows it. Take advantage of it.

Right, but it also kinda goes that in a marriage, you don't make decisions like that on your own, even if you know the answer from the other partner is yes.
My wife and I would definitely open our home for family, but a discussion would happen first and we would lay down a set amount of time that would be reasonable for the person to get their feet back on the ground.

What’s the old proverb? Better to ask for forgiveness than permission?
The brother likely came to her in confidence and a time of need, and she made a decision. What position would you have put her in if the conversation went like this:
“can Douche move in for a bit?”
“No”
“Sorry Douche, my husband is being a douche.”
You would have said it was fine if she would have asked, anyway.
