Melania Trump has been branded the "worst mother" in the nation following reports that her son, Barron Trump, is allegedly close friends with the Tate brothers.
Democratic podcast host Jennifer Welch unleashed a scathing attack on the first lady during an appearance on The Don Lemon Show on Friday, July 24. The heated discussion centered on reports that Barron has a personal connection with Andrew and Tristan Tate.
Pulling no punches, a furious Jennifer delivered a fiery tirade on the matter, declaring, "Melania Trump is this country's worst mother. And I'm going to go on record. The biggest deadbeat mother in the United States of America is Melania Trump!" The outburst comes after Trump's alarming warning to press secretary Karoline Leavitt was reportedly exposed by a lipreader.

She went on to say, "Barron is close personal friends with the Tate brothers. And that to me is just completely failed parenting. If my sons said that they were listening to, watching, or liked Andrew Tate, hell hath no fury. I would grab the ear, would ground them, I would take away their phones. This is a parenting thing."
"Barron is my youngest son's age. And it's out there in the world. I mean, he has said, Andrew Tate, I'm very close with Barron and the Trump boys. We all know Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dips---, Dumb and Dumber," she laughed, referring to Don Jr. and Eric Trump.

She continued, "Of course they're all, of course they love [Andrew Tate]. But Melania, what a s----- mother she is to not correct this or make a statement about this. This is the same woman who said, my husband wants people to walk down the street without being raped."
She concluded her tirade with a string of allegations adding, "So give me a f------ break, Melania. Your husband is the rapist, and why are you allowing Barron to be friends with other rapists, the Tate brothers?!"
This comes amid mounting pressure for a congressional probe into whether Andrew and Tristan Tate leveraged their political ties to affect how their criminal cases were handled.

Democratic Representative Yassamin Ansari of Arizona urged House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer on Thursday to "swiftly open" an investigation into the brothers' "coordination and extensive relationships with members of the president's orbit, including his son, Barron Trump."
Ansari argued that lawmakers need to examine "potential political interference and improper conduct by the federal government" concerning the Tates, who were taken into custody in Miami following a British extradition request.

Britain's Crown Prosecution Service unveiled 38 additional charges. Andrew Tate is facing seven more rape counts, trafficking-related charges, and offenses involving indecent images of a child and extreme pornography.
Tristan Tate is facing two rape charges, one sexual assault charge, and three trafficking-related charges. The brothers deny the allegations.
