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.
“Travel” 😉 I’m sure they’ll be back for the trial
I don’t understand this.
Venezuelans escaping from a communist dictator: ❌ Fuck them, send back to their country where they will be tortured and imprisoned
Same for Haitians
A serial rapist that boasts and is proud to be a serial rapist: ✔️ Yes please, we like people like this
I don’t understand this.
Republicans and Trump are evil pieces of shit, which means they will do the absolute worst thing possible every time.
One has money.
Best and brightest?
I’m not one to defend communists, but Maduro is a socialist dictator.
Yikes. Not great to see.
Trump protecting his own
These creeps are going to be appointed to the cabinet aren’t they?
Yup
It’s all to make people be angry, rage and riot so trump can justify calling either rrhe military, or his Nazi goons to attack citizens as a display of his power.
Yeah, I know. They’re looking for an excuse to impose martial law.
We don’t want these cunts back.
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.
Can someone Luigi this guy too?
Prime target to get luigied
They’re headed to the state of Luigiana
The brothers are outspoken supporters of Donald Trump, and several members of the US president’s inner circle have spoken out publicly against their treatment, including Donald Trump Jr who described their detention as “absolute insanity”.
Elon Musk responded to a suggestion from Tate that he would “run for prime minister of the UK” by saying “he’s not wrong”, while one of Tate’s lawyers, Paul Ingrassia, is the White House liaison official for the US Department of Justice.
According to Ingrassia, the Tate brothers were “sacrificed on the altar of the Matrix under the banner of egregious crimes they never committed”. The US vice-president, JD Vance, has appeared on a pro-Tate podcast.
what the hell is this?! will someone please reboot this fucking universe! I am disgusted to be alive right now.
The world is rebooting at the moment. The old systems are breaking down, the new system is still being written and in the meantime all kinds of rogue elements run havoc.
Remember kids, that’s why boot security is important.
:(
Well said
I’m always so optimistic—[…]
(that’s where I’ll terminate that thought for now, too early for it)
You want a reboot? Well, incedentally a lot of this shit is in America, a country that reportedly has more guns than people. Time to start using them.
If it makes you any consolation, these people are absolutely miserable on the inside. I recently read a transcript of one of them speaking with an officer and I had to stop counting the amount of psychological red flags. They are suffering on the inside. I mean they need to be in jail too because their actions are affecting others too, but at least I can sleep at night knowing they’re fucking miserable.
Where can i read this transcription?
I’d prefer them to be suffering on the outside as well.
Could you elaborate? I too would also like to sleep at night.
I’ll try and find the transcript when I get home from work, but it went something like this:
Investigator: Could you explain why there are allegations of abuse coming from your workers?
Tate: Oh they’re just saying all that stuff because they’re jealous of me (textbook case of projection; i.e. he is an incredibly jealous person, and so views the actions of others through his own lens; he has a very weak “frame of mind” if you will)
I remember it was full of stuff like this. Jealousy, envy, projection, playing the victim (at multiple points he literally expressed himself as the one who is being victimized by this whole situation), overcompensation, defensiveness…I mean you name it and it was there. You could take a psychology course in just this one interview with the investigator and you could learn quite a bit.
Edit: I should say too that I really struggle to have empathy for those who take their own suffering and promulgate it among those around them (the Tate’s for example). It demonstrates incredibly weak and poor character, and in my opinion (and with working with many, MANY people like this), it is almost impossible for them to get help. They almost never recognize themselves at fault (since they have a superiority complex), and so are incapable of taking that first step towards getting the necessary psychological support needed.
If they don’t want help, fine. Shove these types of people away from society so they don’t make it other people’s problems. They can fester in their own suffering for all I care, as long as it’s far away from others.
I don’t think it’s unfair to have those kinds of feelings towards incredibly toxic people. The first step to treating mental illness is being aware of the issue. Good luck getting a malignantly narcissistic pieces of shit like the Tate brothers to be aware of anything except their bank accounts.
A victory for cool dudes everywhere that drown in tail and crypto cash!
I thought Trump was supposed to be deporting criminal immigrants.
But the tates love minors, and committing sexual crimes, so it’s something trump loves and wants more of.
And they hate women with a vengeance, which will make them extra popular.
Rape isn’t a big deal according to trump supporters
Import, deport. What’s the difference?
Make sure you read the trump thesaurus,
criminal: brown, black, non-english-speaking
Don’t forget poor
Does he have more dirt on Trump and is blackmailing him?
Joint chiefs of misogyny.
They’ll probably head up HUD- Building future slums to pump out more poor traumatised girls for their sick shit.
Post has already been filled by the only person of color in the cabinet (to my knowledge). Just like last time, they saw the word urban and picked the only black person they know.
Gross as fuck. Seem like Trump’s type of dudes - deviants and grifters.
Republicans are all about hating and abusing women these days. That and greed. The Tates will be hailed as heroes for their raping and trafficking, and for profiting off it.
Well fuck this all to hell. They both deserve to be underneath the jail and there is so much evidence to prove their guilt. Just disgusting.
