WHAT THEY DID TO ANDREW AND TRISTAN TATE ON SUNDAY

Andrew and Tristan Tate remain in the Special Housing Unit (SHU) at FDC Miami. They have seen the sun only four times since July 18th.

On Sunday, guards deployed OC spray in the SHU. My clients, Andrew and Tristan Tate, had nothing to do with the incident. They were locked in their cells when it happened.

The guards had gas masks. Andrew and Tristan, however, were afforded no such luxury. Locked in a cell with nowhere to go, the chemical spray quickly filled the SHU, poured into their cells, and burned their eyes, throats, and airways.

To protect themselves, Andrew and Tristan wet their T-shirts in the shower and wrapped their eyes and heads in the shirts as best they could.

The Bureau of Prisons' own regulation demands immediate medical examination and treatment. The Department of Justice's own manual says the first aid for this chemical is fresh air and copious amounts of cool water. Andrew and Tristan received no air, no water, no doctor, and no nurse.

Two men convicted of no crime in any country on Earth wrapped wet T-shirts around their faces, sat in a chemical cloud, and waited.

You do not have to take my word for it. Two hours later, my co-counsel Tom Maniotis arrived at the facility for a legal visit. The air was still so toxic that his eyes burned and he struggled to breathe. Thomas cut the meeting short and agreed to come back in two hours to give time for the chemicals to clear out.

Thomas went to our apartment and washed his face and hands. He returned to the SHU a second time, where the meeting had to be cut short because his eyes were irritated and his throat was burning. So much so that he went straight from the jail to urgent care, where he was diagnosed with acute toxic conjunctivitis, a chemical injury to his eyes.

That diagnosis is on paper, from a hospital. Think about what I am saying. Thomas' short-term exposure sent him straight to urgent care. Andrew and Tristan have been stuck in the SHU since this incident happened without medical care or decontamination protocol of any kind.

They sit in that cell over no American charge and no broken rule. They sit there because the United Kingdom, which watched them travel freely for three years and did nothing, suddenly demanded their arrest.

Instead of the safekeeping the law requires, Andrew and Tristan are being horribly punished. Four hours of sunlight in three weeks, bunks too short for their bodies, no pillows, legal meetings in rooms monitored by cameras, and now a chemical agent in their cells with no help afterward.

The Supreme Court says a man awaiting trial may not be punished at all. England's own law says a man jailed before trial is held for safe custody and not for punishment. Every rule forbids what is happening inside that building, and it is happening anyway.

On Thursday, August 13, a federal judge in Miami will hear our motion for Andrew and Tristan's release. If you care about justice and the right of all American citizens not to be punished this way, then you must speak out.

Let the whole world see your anger by sharing this post.

Punishment before judgment is tyranny.

Free Andrew and Tristan Tate. Free Them Now.

For three years, Andrew and Tristan lived under Romanian release conditions and honored every one of them. They traveled to eleven countries and returned to Romania every time, because their conditions required it. The Romanian prosecutor put the conclusion in writing: there are no plausible grounds to believe they intend to evade prosecution. Three years of proof outweighs one sentence of speculation.

Free Them Now.

No Kings in 1776. No Kings in Miami. No Kings ever.

The King can kiss my Yankee ass.

George III learned the hard way that Americans do not kneel. Now his successors demand that two American citizens be caged for the Crown while convicted of nothing. There are no thrones on American soil. The King can kiss my Yankee ass.

⁨Do drug lords or those who murder little children with knives get condemnation from the United Nations? But I do for a 15-year-old MeToo accusation.

This is further proof I am innocent and suffering from the highest level of Matrix attack.⁩

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

In England, the charges my clients face are bailable, and an unconvicted man awaiting extradition enjoys a presumption of release. The United Kingdom asks an American court to impose a detention that its own law would not. No American should sit in jail under a standard England refuses to apply to its own.

Free Them Now.

Michael Jackson was loved by the people. The world adored him.

A man who is genuinely admired and inspires millions is seen as a threat to those who want to rule the world with fear.

If you have a badge and a gun - but are not loved - you are very fearful of those who are loved.

Hope and inspiration is the antithesis to fear.

Love is the antithesis to fear.

In an attempt to dampen his power and stop the people from loving him, they accused him of sexual crimes and slandered his name all over the television and media.

Do you understand?

TARGET: Powerful Right-Leaning Man

ATTACK VECTOR: Sexual Allegations

Day 20 in SHU (special housing unit)

This is punitive housing for people who murder their cellmates.

No commissary, no phone calls, no yard time.

The worst possible conditions the US gov provides to terrorists and psychopaths.

I am an innocent until proven guilty extradition detainee.

I’m wanted by a foreign state.

I am an American citizen.

WHY AM I HERE?

How many Politically Right leaning men who do not support DeSantis have been accused of sex trafficking in Florida this week?

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

England has forgotten how this works. Americans do not get shipped across the ocean because the Crown is offended. We settled that question in 1776, and the answer has not changed. The King can kiss my Yankee ass.

[Tristan Tate @TateTheTalisman]

Hold Anthony Fauci in Contempt of Congress and stick him in the SHU at FDC Miami.

I am bored and need a cellmate.

TEN REASONS THE LAW REQUIRES THE RELEASE OF ANDREW AND TRISTAN TATE

Today we filed Andrew and Tristan Tate's Motion for Release Pending Extradition in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Here are ten of the many reasons the law requires their release.

1. Romania heard these same charges and released them. Its courts found Andrew and Tristan were neither a flight risk nor a danger.

2. They complied with every condition of release for three years. The Romanian prosecutor confirmed it in writing.

3. Romania let them travel the world. They visited eleven countries and came back every time.

4. Romania has already ordered their surrender to the U.K. when its case ends. There is no reason why they should be jailed in the USA on England's behalf.

5. These are the same warrants Romania ruled on two years ago. The U.K. accepted that ruling and lived with it. This is forum shopping, plain and simple.

6. There was no urgency. Four days before the arrest, the brothers posted their location publicly: the United States Capitol. The marshals found them at an advertised boxing match.

7. They knew about the charges for years and never ran. Their lawyers engaged the U.K. prosecutors, offered interviews, and sued the Director of Public Prosecutions.

8. They cannot hide. Andrew was the most Googled person on Earth in 2023. Courts released Dog the Bounty Hunter on bond for the same reason.

9. England itself would give them bail. These charges are bailable in the U.K., where the unconvicted enjoy a presumption of release.

10. Their detention is punishment before judgment. Convicted of nothing and charged with nothing in America, they sit in the SHU while the U.K.'s papers are not due until September 16. The Constitution forbids it.

BONUS: They have offered a bond, their passports, GPS monitoring, and open doors to Pretrial Services.

FREE THEM NOW.

My clients have never been interviewed about the UK allegations. Our UK lawyers asked the Crown Prosecution Service for the accusers' identities and were refused. We sued the Director of Public Prosecutions in London. Innocent men demand their day in court. My clients have been demanding it for years.

Free Them Now.

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

My clients have a long history of engaging with federal and state law enforcement. The government was on notice that a single phone call would have produced their voluntary surrender. Nobody called. The marshals were sent into a public boxing match instead, and two unconvicted American citizens now sit in the SHU. Men who offer to surrender do not need to be hunted.

Free Them Now.

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

The last time England demanded that Americans surrender their liberty, we answered at Lexington. Today we answered with a 41-page motion in federal court. The message has not changed in 250 years. The King can kiss my Yankee ass.

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

America was founded by men who refused to bow to a Crown. My clients are American citizens, convicted of nothing, jailed on England's demand. We fought a revolution over less. The King can kiss my Yankee ass.

[Joe McBride @McBrideLawNYC]

The government asked the Court to detain my clients while withholding the most important facts: the Romanian order surrendering them to the U.K., their lawful presence in this country, three years of documented compliance, and the judicial finding that they are not a flight risk. The full record entered this courtroom through our motion, not the government's. A detention built on omissions cannot stand.

Free Them Now.
