Summary
Andrew and Tristan Tate have left Romania for the US after officials lifted their travel ban.
The brothers, arrested in 2022, face charges of rape, human trafficking, and money laundering but were granted temporary permission to travel.
Romania’s government denies US interference, though reports suggest Trump’s envoy discussed their case. The Tates, also wanted in the UK for past allegations, must return for a March court hearing.
Prosecutors accuse them of exploiting women through the “loverboy” method and profiting millions from forced pornography. Both deny all charges.
You can talk about Trump liking them because they are fellow child-rapists, but the reality is, that isn’t enough. Trump doesn’t care about anyone but himself. For his administration to go to the effort to help this scum escape prosecution, there has to be something in it for Trump or someone high up enough in the administration to convince him it should be done.
The tricky part is figuring out which of the many child-rapists in the current regime was the one who cared enough.
It is Musk, either because he is a fan or his early 20s geek squad shitheads are.
