You don't have to be an expert to see through this as the sham that it is. Are we really to believe that they have hundreds of millions of dollars in USD reserve? Their US bank accounts have been cut off.

Their own Terms of Service specifically say that Tether is not redeemable for USD, for goodness sake!

Yeah, there's no reason to believe they have the USD, plenty of reasons not to.
