House Democrat Calls for Barron Trump to Testify Before Congress On Reported Ties to Andrew Tate: He’s ‘Deeply Involved in Trump’s Orbit’

A Democratic congresswoman is calling on Trump to testify before Congress — not President Donald Trump, not Donald Trump Jr., but 20-year-old Barron Trump.

In an interview with MeidasTouch’s On Sunday show, Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ) said she wants Barron Trump hauled before Congress so he can be questioned about his relationship with soon-to-be-extradited Andrew Tate, after the manosphere influencer and his brother were arrested on rape and child porn charges.

“I absolutely want to see Barron Trump come before Congress and answer questions about this. There is reporting about this, and he should answer these questions. What is his relationship with Andrew Tate? What kind of communication have they had?” she said. “What kinds of connections has Barron Trump potentially made for Andrew Tate and his brother? Has he had any conversations with other White House officials about this? These are all really important questions to be asking.”

The New York Times reported last year Barron Trump was a “fan” of Andrew Tate and had a warm relationship with one of Tate’s employees.

Ansari continued, “I think it’s important to remember that Barron Trump is an adult. He is somebody who is deeply involved in Trump’s orbit and the whole manosphere, and he has a lot of influence. So he needs to be held accountable if he has committed any wrongdoing.”

She also accused the youngest Trump child of “following in the same footsteps of his older siblings” and profiting off the “corruption” inside the White House; she claimed Barron Trump is “actively using his influence” to sway his dad and change policies to his liking.

Ansari said she expects House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer (R-KY) to give her a “dismissive response” when it comes to making Barron Trump testify, but she hopes she is wrong. She said Comer has been “dragging his feet” when it comes to probing Trump and his ties to dead sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.

She doubled down on her comments soon after her interview was over.

“Members of the Trump family have used the White House to enrich themselves and protect pedophiles,” she posted on X. “Nobody is above the law-they must be investigated.”
