How the U.S. Right Is Divided Over the Tate Brothers’ Return

The return of the Tates to the U.S. is fracturing the right.

Self-described “misogynist” influencer Andrew and his brother Tristan touched down in Florida on Feb. 27 after a two-year travel ban due to pending human trafficking and other charges against them in Romania. The brothers were released after Romanian prosecutors approved a request to lift the restrictions, according to Romania’s anti-organized crime agency, DIICOT. Although the agency did not specify who made the request, reporting from the Financial Times suggests the Trump Administration placed pressure on Romanian authorities to return the Tate brothers’ U.S. passports and allow them to travel.
