Right here is how Britt defined deceptive the American folks together with her intercourse trafficking story on Fox Information Sunday:
BREAM: So be clear, the story that you just relate just isn’t one thing that’s occurred underneath the Biden administration, that individual particular person?
BRITT: I’m — properly, I very — I very clearly stated, I spoke to a girl who advised me about when she was trafficked, when she was 12. So I didn’t say an adolescent, I didn’t say a younger lady, a grown lady, a girl when she was trafficked when she was 12. And so listening to her story, she is a sufferer’s proper advocate who — who’s telling that is what drug cartels are doing, that is how they’re profiting off of girls. And it’s disgusting. And so I’m hopeful that it brings some gentle to — to it. And we are able to really do one thing about human trafficking. And that’s what the media really decides to cowl.
