The Trump administration has aggressively rolled back efforts across the federal government to combat human trafficking, a Guardian investigation has found.
The sweeping retreat threatens to negate decades of progress in the drive to prevent sexual slavery, forced labor and child sexual exploitation, according to legal experts, former government officials and anti-trafficking advocates. They say the administration’s moves are impeding efforts to prosecute perpetrators and protect survivors in the United States and around the world.
“It’s been a widespread and multi-pronged attack on survivors that leaves all of us less safe and leaves survivors with few options,” said Jean Bruggeman, executive director of Freedom Network USA, a national coalition of service providers, researchers and trafficking survivors.
So, hard working migrants. No. Child sex slaves. Yes?! Wtf.
So where are the “kill your local pedophile” folks?
Seriously, how many kids did he touch? This is getting ridiculous. It has been for sometime.
Underaged teen beauty pageants operated by Trump…
They would.
Literally fucking campaigned on this shit. I’m so fucking disgusted people keep voting for a guy that just keeps pissing in their faces
If they’re anything like their golden(-showering) god, they’re into it.
It’s what tribalism got us.
I guarantee you, most of the people voting for Trump don’t get exposed to anti-conservative ideas because they’re banned from interacting with liberals on most social media.
Each time someone gets banned on reddit for sharing a conservative viewpoint, however incorrect it may be, becomes a conservative for life and gets pushed further towards its culture.
We need more spaces on the internet where people can freely share their ideas without fear of censorship. Moderators can genuinely go fuck themselves with how much they’ve gotten in the way of allowing different sides to communicate. They helped cause this divide and do their damnedest to keep it going.
So are you a proponent of AMAB then?
The fuck …with all their save the children pearl clutching bullshit?
They NEVER CARED ABOUT THE CHILDREN.
Everything they say is an excuse they think will be difficult to argue against, it they use it to dilute the very same accusations used against them.
This is a long read, but worthwhile. The details are compelling. The administration has, unsurprisingly, tried to reframe the trafficking problem as one of immigration. This has allowed them to cut funding and staff, redirect resources, and ignore effective projects so they can bolster their deportation efforts. All of this is massively harmful to real victims and real solutions to human trafficking.
This is the definition of “when all you have is a hammer, every problem becomes a nail.”
This is the definition of “when all you have is a hammer, every problem becomes a nail.”
No, this implies that there is a desire to fix anything in the first place
This is the definition of “when all you have is a hammer, every problem becomes a nail.”
This is actually the opposite. The only problem they give a shit about is nails, so they are breaking all their other tools by bashing them into the wall.
No, this is the definition of supporting pedophiles because that is what they do and that is who they are
Well of course he doesn’t want any more of his buddies swept up and mysteriously suicided.
Even for a veteran trump-watcher sometimes we forget there’s no bottom. It only ever gets worse.
Still - I thought I couldn’t respect the Qanut/MAGA/“What-about-the-children” people any less. And here we are.
Nooo. It was totally only Epstein. Nobody else wants to rape kids…
Don’t want it to distract from more important things like identifying people who make fascists sad online or fabricating a case against an innocent Italian plumber.
“No one has ever been as hard as I am when it comes to exploitation, particularly, they say, the sexual exploitation of children. No one has ever been as hard. So we wiped it out. It’s gone and it won’t be … there has never been anyone more dedicated to sexual exploitation is what they say.”
Remove half of the context and it finally becomes accurate:
No one has ever been as hard as I am when it comes to exploitation, particularly, they say, the sexual exploitation of children. No one has ever been as hard.
You don’t really have to remove any context except understanding how stupid Trump is. If you just read that without knowing Trump it would be a confession
I originally explained it was gone so he was going to pull funding because it wasn’t needed but the bit got too long so I snipped all that. It’s painful to think in his voice for too long.
whoops
