Self-styled ‘misogynist influencer’ and brother, who face trial on charges including rape and people trafficking, had been banned from leaving Romania

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.

    The US is trying desperately hard to achieve scumbag singularity. PeRsEcUtEd white South Africans? Bring em on! Scumfuck manosphere influencers? Let’s bring them home! Rich assholes no longer welcome in their home country? Yeah, will that be cash or check?

    Though, the thought occurs that the scumbag concentration increases exponentially as you approach the White House. Maybe all these assholes will just gel together in DC like some Sci Fi mutant scumbag blob and we can just, like, cast fire on it or cut the city adrift into the Atlantic to go become some old sailor’s myth like the Flying Dutchman or Belgium.
