The influencer Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan Tate, were arrested by Romanian authorities on Monday on U.K. charges based on a tip that they had planned to flee Romania — information that was revealed on a Kick livestream by their friend and fellow “alpha male” streamer, Adin Ross, Rolling Stone has confirmed.

According to a legal representative for McCue Law, the firm representing four British women accusing Tate of rape and sexual assault, U.K. judicial authorities issued a warrant for their arrests and extradition on sexual abuse charges after “we were informed by one of our contacts that an associate of Tate (Adin Ross) had discussed Tate’s intention to flee during a video on the gaming and livestreaming platform Kick.”

    I am trying to grasp at a singular straw, trying to figure out why I would give a fuck about a human trafficking piece of shit. Or anything that happens to him.

      Because millions of people fund him and listen to the things he says. His very presence is a threat. He should be monitored and reported on. Evil should not go undocumented.

        I figure that’s what institutions of justice and law are for.

      He is both one of those pyramid scheme/get rich quick conference con men at your local hotel conference room and “alpha male” influencers through his “Hustler’s University.” So all his marks who bought into the myth that they too can be rich and horrible to women if they follow these steps all think he is being unjustly persecuted.
