Of course the Republicans are this disgusting.
A complete lie about the time and location of a horrific atrocity just to rail against Biden is about as despicable as it gets. This poor woman is being used as a political pawn and is about to get dragged through the media shit storm just because the Republicans don’t have any sense of decency and empathy.
This whole thing should make everyone angry, but the only people who are going to read a story about this lie are not the people who need it.
You mean the people who can read and don’t just look at the pictures?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The woman whose story Alabama Sen. Katie Britt appeared to have shared in the Republican response to the State of the Union as an example of President Joe Biden’s failed immigration policies told CNN she was trafficked before Biden’s presidency and said legislators lack empathy when using the issue of human trafficking for political purposes.
CNN’s Freedom Project, which seeks to raise awareness about modern-day slavery, previously profiled Jacinto’s story.
Jacinto told CNN that Mexican politicians took advantage of her by using her story for political purposes and that it’s happened again in the United States.
She had been sex trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12,” before saying, “President Biden’s border crisis is a disgrace.
Jacinto said she met the senator at an event at the southern border with other government officials and anti-human-trafficking activists, instead of one-on-one as Britt stated.
She was not trafficked by Mexican drug cartels, but by a pimp who operated as part of a family that entrapped vulnerable girls to force them into prostitution, she said.
The original article contains 531 words, the summary contains 172 words. Saved 68%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Jacinto told CNN that Mexican politicians took advantage of her by using her story for political purposes and that it’s happened again in the United States.
She had been sex trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12,” before saying, “President Biden’s border crisis is a disgrace.
This is highly misleading. It makes it appear as if the statements in the second paragraph were issued by Jacinto. Here’s the full context:
Jacinto told CNN that Mexican politicians took advantage of her by using her story for political purposes and that it’s happened again in the United States.
“I work as a spokesperson for many victims who have no voice, and I really would like them to be empathetic: all the governors, all the senators, to be empathetic with the issue of human trafficking because there are millions of girls and boys who disappear all the time. People who are really trafficked and abused, as she [Britt] mentioned. And I think she [Britt] should first take into account what really happens before telling a story of that magnitude,” Jacinto said.
During the Republican response to Biden’s State of the Union address Thursday, Britt said, “When I first took office, I did something different. I traveled to the Del Rio sector of Texas, where I spoke to a woman who shared her story with me. She had been sex trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12,” before saying, “President Biden’s border crisis is a disgrace. It’s despicable. And it’s almost entirely preventable.”
Bad bot
