I sure hope the Trump administration doesn't try to save these fuckers.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Don't give them ideas, a lot of "people" in that administration apparently love to fuck children
Pedo, grifter, egoistical, bad at money laundering, constantly talks about masculinity and shit while acting like a giant crybaby, entire personality revolves about being perceived as the manliest manly man while looking like an absolute goblin (with expensive tacky clothes on top). Has an IQ lower than his anal temperature in ~~normal units~~ °C.
If you still have no idea whether it's about Tate or Trump... well, that's why I think the Trump administration will definitely try to save these fuckers
OTOH trump may want to eliminate the competition.
“sex with a minor” -> rape of a child
Turns out most dudes's cheering on of macho dickheads that take advantage of woman, ends with their own daughters. Who knew? /s
Fuck this guy. First tough guy I've known trying to be hyper masculine that wears woman's blouses, felt I had to add that.
I've worked with a fair share of people that have well, killed lots of people. They looked out for me. This guy is ... I don't know looks and sounds weak? Like he would hide under the blouse at the sound of a shot.
Why wasn't this guy arrested years ago?
Both Tates were arrested in Romania in 2022.
There is an arrest warrant out for them in the United Kingdom since 2024.
They were arrested in the United States in 2026 under the extradition request of the UK.
Didn't trump pardon him? Or ask Romania to transfer him to US.
A Trump official visited the Romanian authorities and the next day the Tates travel restrictions were lifted.
Right? Why has this been hard?
Ircc he was, then released on house arrest, no clue what happened to that cause you know he famously got arrested in Florida recently, and last I checked that ain't Romania. He's probably lining someone's pockets.
It's well known that a $1,000,000 'donation' to Trump gets the donor a Presidential pardon for anything.
I still don't understand why he came to America. He's got to know we have extradition treaties.
I don't know, but he sounds like some people I've met. When I was in Dublin, in a pub, this one Romanian guy proceeded to try and tell a joke... ugh the punchline was "it was womans" and it was good my buddy was there and bought him a pint to shut him up since I was already 10-12 pints deep. If you question that part; there may have been some "smelling salts" and plenty of cigarettes involved. Sorry for the rant it just grinds my gears.
Well Tate has now acquired everything he needs to run for president…
Sex with minors isn’t a thing. It’s called rape.
I don't think Romanian law sees it like that. Minors above 14 can technically consent to sexual acts with adults, which makes it still illegal, but not rape and carries a much lighter sentence.
German law (and quite a few other European countries) is even more relaxed in that regard, while it's still technically illegal to have sex with minors aged 14+, if they consented and weren't somehow pressured etc, there will usually be no prosecution.
It’s only rape if the rapist is poor. If they are rich, it’s called Thursday.
Since this effect lacks a proper name outside of the date, why don't we invent a new one. I propose Trumpstein.
While I agree, the way the article is worded makes me suspect that is the name of the crime they’re accused of.
Sort of like how Trump was found liable for “sexual abuse”, because the jurisdiction it occurred in strictly defines rape as penis-in-vagina sex. And since he “only” (ugh) used his fingers, it wasn’t technically rape as far as the law was concerned. But the judge who oversaw the case later had to clarify that it would colloquially be referred to as rape, even though that wasn’t the technical term that the lawsuit used. Because Trump was trying to use the “well I wasn’t found liable for rape, so she can’t say I raped her” argument in his defamation lawsuit.
I am SHOCKED! SHOCKED! He's always been such an upstanding gentleman. I am truly shocked

"...the world knows Andrew and Tristan are innocent."
Didn’t we already go through this?
Sort of. This is a new set of charges, it's unclear from the article how much overlap it shares with the previous case.
The Tate brothers have been under criminal investigation in Romania on charges including human trafficking since December 2022. They were arrested in late 2022 and later indicted on charges they participated in a criminal ring that lured women to Romania, where they were sexually exploited, but a court later ruled that case could not go to trial because of multiple legal and procedural irregularities on the prosecutors' part.
Kind of? They were indicted in Romania a while back, but those charges were quickly dropped because the investigators fumbled some key evidence. This is a new set of charges, supposedly with new evidence that isn’t mired in procedural issues. They are already trying to fight their extradition to the UK for rape charges, so this is another set of charges to add to the list.
Yay! ...now do Trump.
I hear kid molesters have a lot of fun in jail... couldn't happen to a better guy
So why didn't they keep him? They could have sent them back after doing time.
Because corruption and/or the US pushing hard for it and they'd not ready to fight over it.
Q: What % of people that are abusive in the various ways, some even convicted of crimes, support controlling, authoritarian ways, vs warm and authoritative ways, equality, etc?
A: If you group all abusers together, roughly 85% to 90% actively support or default to controlling, authoritarian methods to handle their relationships. The remaining 10% to 15% might state they believe in equality or warmth, but their personal actions fundamentally break those principles due to antisocial traits or psychological instability.
