White House Intervened in Andrew Tate Sex Trafficking Investigation
While in the United States, Andrew Tate’s electronic devices were seized by Customs and Border Protection. Subsequently, a White House official, Paul Ingrassia, intervened on the Tate brothers’ behalf by contacting senior Department of Homeland Security officials, requesting the devices be returned. Ingrassia’s actions caused concern among DHS officials, who worried about potential interference in a federal investigation. Law enforcement experts noted the unusual nature of such White House involvement, raising questions about potential intimidation and the politicization of law enforcement. The Tates deny any wrongdoing, and the status of any investigation into their devices remains unclear.
