How Traffickers Recruit Their Victims

Image credit to original creator

Whenever we picture what a trafficking situation involves, there's a stigma that it's done by strangers through kidnapping. That a young girl goes to a foreign country and gets taken. Hollywood and the media certainly gives an interesting version of what human trafficking entails. However, these perceptions are untrue. Most cases of human trafficking don't involve kidnappings and isn't done by strangers. Traffickers use nefarious tactics that make their crime untraceable to the ordinary human eye. Anyone can be a victim of human trafficking, and anyone can be a trafficker.

Traffickers get their victims through manipulation. Instead of using violence, they use mind games. In the recruitment phase, traffickers rarely use violence to get a victim. There are a few main recruitment tactics when it comes to trafficking individuals for sexual exploitation or forced labor. 

Boyfriending

This term is exactly how it sounds. A trafficker will appear as whatever that child or adult needs them to be: a friend, parent, girlfriend/boyfriend, or mentor. "Boyfriending" is how a trafficker gains that person's trust, by giving them whatever they need. Money, new clothes, constant attention, flattery, promises of a happy life, the list goes on. Traffickers always target people in vulnerable situations. Children in foster care, a woman who just escaped an abusive boyfriend, drug addicts, or homeless. It's like your vulnerability is an invisible target on your back that abusers and traffickers can find.

An example comes from Stop Modern Day Slavery. An interviewee and survivor, Kimberly Blitz, shared how she met some man when she was 14 (after dealing with personal loss and moving to a new city), and that man eventually became her trafficker. Kimberly shared, "I thought things were great between us until our first fight where he ended up hitting me. I remember thinking how wrong it was, but at the same time justifying it. The next day he showed up with flowers, crying about how he never meant to hurt me. And then he said the three words I was craving to hear: 'I love you.'"

Boyfriending is probably the most common way traffickers recruit their victims. By using psychological and emotional abuse, it makes it seem impossible for their victim to leave, let alone tell their family or law enforcement.  By pretending to care or show love, a trafficker gains power over their potential victim, because that person thinks they cannot live or survive without the trafficker. 

False Advertisements

Traffickers will tell people or post online about some well-paying job, travels, or modeling/acting gigs. Traffickers ensure the advertisement looks legitimate, so there is no doubt surrounding your mind. People who are desperate for money or a job will view the advertisement and think it is legit, only to learn the hard way it was a lie. If it involves travels to another country, that person or persons involved will seize documents and essentially hold you captive, forcing you to do horrendous things.

Such was the case for Jane Doe, in an article shared by Fight The New Drug. This Jane Doe would become another victim to the GirlsDoPorn organization. She was told that she was auditioning for a fitness modeling job. Instead, she was flown out to San Diego, where she was forced to sign a contract, fed drugs and alcohol, and forced to perform for a porn video. She was raped for six hours. Many other women experienced similar situations from GirlsDoPorn. The GirlsDoPorn founder was wanted by the FBI, and was caught in Spain back in December. He is currently being charged with "sex trafficking, production of child pornography, sex trafficking of a minor, and conspiracy to launder monetary instruments." Others involved in the company were caught and charged with sex trafficking. False advertisements are commonly used by traffickers.

Familial trafficking

This is exactly how it sounds. Many people think human trafficking happens between strangers, but in many cases, traffickers target someone they know personally. According to the U.S. National Human Trafficking Hotline, these are the statistics of people brought into trafficking by someone they knew in 2020:

• 42% were brought into trafficking by a member of their own families. (Sex trafficking)
• 39% were recruited via an intimate partner or a marriage proposition. (Sex trafficking)
• 69% were recruited by a potential or current employer. (Forced labor)
• 15% were recruited into trafficking by a member of their own family. (Forced labor)
• 5% by an intimate partner or marriage proposition. (Forced labor)

Polaris Project shares several stories (which you can read or watch) of survivors of familial trafficking. It's easier for traffickers to target someone they know, since they already have that individual's trust and love, which they can manipulate against them. In the story of Sam, he explained the reason he never told anyone of his father trafficking him. "I loved him and I wanted him to be proud of me. I wanted him to love me as unconditionally as I loved him. To get that, it was my job to do what dad wanted me to do – and not to tell anyone. That was how I would have a father-son relationship." 

Conclusion

Human trafficking doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's not a black or white issue. As you can see, it's very easy to be manipulated by people who claim to have your best interests at heart. It's important to be aware of these recruitment tactics, so we can know how to recognize if this is happening and prevent it from happening to ourselves and our loved ones. 

Technology's Role in Aiding and Combatting Human Trafficking

Technology has been a great tool in combatting human trafficking. At the same time, technology has aided human traffickers. There is good use in technology, but unfortunately, there are those who will abuse this power. There is no way to avoid how technology impacts society. Technology isn't going away, so it's up to use to not only use technology to our advantage in combatting human trafficking but understand how technology helps human trafficking thrive. 

What do you think of when you hear the word "technology?" Social media, the Internet, GPS, emails, online advertising. We can find clothes at a reasonable price online, or get our lunch delivered when we don't have the time to go and pick it up. How does this tie into human trafficking? As stated by the author in an article featured on Social Media Collective, "Technology makes many aspects of human trafficking more visible and more traceable, for better and for worse."

Technology provides human traffickers incredulous ways to continue their crimes without detection. Billions of people use the Internet, online advertising, and social media. Traffickers can advertise through online ads on the Internet to sell their victims. A trafficker could also use websites to trick someone with a false job or promise, then exploit that individual. Some of these include live chats, which provides traffickers to perfect opportunity to contact individuals to get their personal information, giving them even more power over their soon-to-be victim. You can reach a myriad of people through the Internet. Traffickers can also use other aspects of technology to aid them in their crimes. GPS is often used to track victims' locations. Traffickers can hack (or have someone hack) security cameras to know where their victim is or use cameras/microphones to communicate with a victim.

The greatest use of technology for human traffickers would be recruitment. For the past decade or so, traffickers have used technology (i.e. social media, the Internet) to recruit victims. Alexandra Gelber, the Deputy Chief for Policy and Legislation at the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section of the Department of Justice, shared how online recruitment works in the United States. "Data shows that in the United States approximately 40% of sex trafficking victims are recruited online, making the Internet the most common place where victim recruitment takes place," Gelber says. As I've stated numerous times, social media is integral in traffickers' success. A trafficker can find numerous victims through a few searches on Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, or Facebook. In 2020, Facebook alone was responsible for 59% of online recruitment in active victims' cases. To make matters worse, 65% of child sex trafficking recruitment that took place online came from Facebook. What child do you know uses Facebook? It's terrifying to consider how they're reaching our youth.

Thanks to technology's advancement globally, people can pay for sexual services online from another country. We are witnessing how child trafficking has gone online. Predators and traffickers can molest or abuse children, while viewers pay for these "services." 

There's also the discussion of how pornographic websites allow CSAM and CSE (in addition to human trafficking). One of PornHub's most popular channels, GirlsDoPorn, was found guilty of trafficking young women. Pornography has a direct line to fueling human trafficking. Traffickers understand the revenue by manipulating or threatening their victims into "performing." If someone is forced, coerced, or manipulated into doing these acts, that is human trafficking. There is no way to know how many videos include human trafficking or performers of legal age. There is no way to know if the performer in that video wants to be there. The porn industry receives more visits than Netflix, Twitter, and Amazon combined. 

Pornography is also a tool traffickers use to groom their victims. By normalizing these acts found in pornography, from incest to BDSM, victims will be more likely to go along with what is asked of them. In an interview with acclaimed porn star, Nina Hartley, interviewer Benji Nolot asked Nina how she cannot be concerned with the message her recent film normalized. What was the movie in question about? A mother's sexual relationship with her daughter. You could see Nina was thrown off, and while she claimed she wouldn't do another incest-themed film, she went ahead and made another. There is no ethical line with pornography. As Joshua Broome stated, "There is no NO list. NO means not yet." 

With all I have described with how technology aids human trafficking, it's hard to see the bright side. Have hope! There are positives to technology in combatting human trafficking. For one, social media has been a great tool in exposing the truth of human trafficking. I love watching educational videos on human trafficking on Instagram or making Reels on human trafficking myself. Education and awareness are key in bringing light to this dark subject. You've also got resource centers, like the National Human Trafficking Hotline or Cyber Tipline, that you can report human trafficking to. There are apps and websites you can use to fight human trafficking. 

With regards to technology, this is an advantage, I thoroughly believe, where Gen Z can step up. Most of my generation uses social media to share our messages. I believe the same should be done with human trafficking. Traffickers can adapt to technological advances, but that doesn't mean we can't. 

Human Trafficking and Social Media

Who remembers being taught the idea of "stranger danger?" As children, we were told never accept a stranger's request to speak with them or be alone with them. We can often remember that going into a stranger's white van was extreme danger. Social media is now used as predators and traffickers "white van." Because we are so enthralled with the technological advances we experience through social media, we often ignore the dangers of speaking with strangers or sharing personal information with unknown bodies. Targeting victims through social media has made human trafficking much simpler. Instead of having to stalk, follow, or speak to a potential victim, traffickers can click a button and find several victims at once. 

What is common with human traffickers? They're adaptable and cunning. Traffickers understand how technology advances and learn how to use it to their benefit. One FBI specialist shared with Thomas Reuters Foundation how traffickers use websites and chat rooms to target victims. "They [the traffickers] are keeping up with technology and exploiting it for their purposes, their illegal businesses. They’re not opposed to using what’s available to them."

How do traffickers use social media to target victims? To answer this question, let me ask another question: What's a common theme you see on social media? People posting how depressed or hard their life is. I'm sure at one point or another, you've posted that you're having a hard day or life is too horrible. Many minors will make similar posts, as a seemingly innocent way to get sympathy from followers and vent their frustrations. A trafficker, on the other hand, will see these posts and realize they've got a new target. Traffickers, after taking the time to read similar posts or view different photos, will "approach" that person (or child) and tell them what they want to hear. For example, a 14-year-old girl named Mary posts how she thinks she is so ugly. "Nobody will love a face like mine!" she shares. Another "14-year-old girl" comments saying, "You're so beautiful!" The self-conscious Mary contacts the other girl, thanking her for her words. Little does Mary know that her soon-to-be "girl friend" is actually a 30-something old man pretending to be a 14-year-old girl. This is just a fictional example, but this does happen. 

As stated by Fight The New Drug, "After trust is built, traffickers will convince the potential victim to meet up with them or may even coerce the potential victim to send a risky picture, which the trafficker can then use to extort the potential victim."

The Human Trafficking Institute reported that in 2020, over 50% of online recruitment cases for human trafficking came from Facebook. Even worse, the report shared that "65% of identified child sex trafficking victims recruited on social media were recruited through Facebook." Instagram and Snapchat were also responsible for online recruitment of children in 2020. This is a major problem, and it won't go away. We live in a technological era and are reliant on technology. So how do we fight this issue?

The answer, believe it or not, isn't to get rid of social media. At least in the case for adults. You can use social media platforms like Tik Tok or Instagram to educate children and teenagers. If you follow me on Instagram, majority of my Reels involve information about human trafficking and domestic abuse. Through these short videos, you can inform thousands or more on these dark subjects. Social media can also be used for good, not just evil. With younger children and even teenagers, parents have to be vigilant. It's easy to say, "My child knows better." There's no way to avoid this. It's better to be safe than sorry, wouldn't you agree? There is more hope. An affiliate of Fight The New Drug called Bark helps fight the issue of potential trafficking. There is an algorithm that alerts parents of predators contacting their children. You should constantly teach your children to not accept messages from random accounts. You should also tell your child they can trust you. Often, children victimized by human trafficking think that their trafficker knows what is best for them, instead of a parent or mentor. Constantly tell your children they can trust you. 

We live in scary times, but that doesn't mean we just have to sit back and allow it to happen. The solution to fighting online recruitment and human trafficking is simple. In order to prevent children from longing for safety from strangers, we must continue to be vigilant, compassionate, and vocal. The safety of our fellow man has never been more important.

If you suspect human trafficking or know someone in a human trafficking situation, contact law enforcement or call the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888 or text HELP or INFO to 233733.

LOOMERED Book Review

Me with Laura Loomer

This is one I have been dying to write, but this book was not an overnight read. I really took my time to read what Laura had to say, and there was A LOT. As I mentioned before, I received this book DIRECTLY from Laura Loomer at an event she spoke at. She's not what I expected when I met her, and I was very nervous because I was starstruck to meet THE Laura Loomer, but she was super sweet and amazing to speak with. While I could continue with how awesome Laura is, that's not the point of this article. Her book is what I am writing about! Her book, Loomered: How I Became the Most Banned Woman in the World, was truly a spectacular journey to go through. Considering the times we are living in, I implore you to read this book.

Summary

Laura reveals her experience in politics, from starting her investigative journalist career with Project Veritas, to the time when she handcuffed herself to Twitter's headquarters, to being essentially digitally removed from existence. What she shares, at times, is hard to stomach. I only discovered who Laura was from MILO's Telegram, so probably in the last year or two. Her story is truly heartbreaking to hear, and I often admire her courage and bravery to continue standing for what is right. 

Analysis

There many moments in this book that stood out to me. One of them being Laura describing how she became so brave. We see how she is and some will say she's crazy, but most of us see how brave she is. She describes her bravery stemming from having a brother with schizophrenia. It's interesting how living with someone who has a disability impacts you as a person. My brother, as I've stated before, has autism. He needs to constantly be taken care of. That impacts you in a way that not many can comprehend, so reading Laura's experience with her brother really impacted me.

To be honest, I never had much knowledge of Laura's life. I knew she was a journalist, I knew she was banned from social media, I knew she was running for Congress. That was essentially the most I knew of her. I never knew the whole story until I read her book. For instance, I never knew she began her career with Project Veritas. Never knew what happened to her in college with almost NOT receiving her diploma, as well as many other major moments. 

What this book teaches you is how censorship and government overreach can hit you, when you least expect it. Laura has been, as mentioned before, had her existence digitally erased. We live in an era where social media is the go-to for social connections, making money, and learning what news is circulating. Loomer had that all taken away from her, and she describes the trauma it has caused her. What she has experienced, however, is a lesson to everyone today. Look at the current times we live in with cancel culture. Laura, as well as many of the deplatformed conservatives, have had their careers destroyed, but nobody talks about this. I cannot stress enough that you need to read this book.

Interview with Laura Loomer

I texted Laura about this book review with a couple of questions, and she did respond! Here is what she had to say:

Question #1: Why did you decide to write this book?

Answer: "As the most banned woman in the world, and the canary in the coal mine for social media censorship and big tech election interference, I wrote my book as a warning to all Americans and freedom loving people around the world of what's to come for everybody else if immediate action isn't taken against the big tech social media tyrants. I want my book to be an educational, historical documentation and manifesto from a first person narrative for the sake of educating the masses about what I believe is the most pressing issue facing our nation and the entire world, and that is the issue of big tech social media censorship, big tech tyranny and big tech election interference."

Question #2: What do you hope people take away from your book?

Answer: "I believe people will find my book to be educational and informative regarding the history of cancel culture and big tech censorship, and I hope that my story, and my determination to hold big tech accountable through activism, litigation, and running for office will inspire others to do the same."

Conclusion

This book was not an easy read. Not because of how long the book was, but the amount of information Laura presents. You do NOT want to rush through what is said. This book gets 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Get your copy today!!

Human Trafficking and The Grooming Process

Discussing the grooming process of human trafficking is an uncomfortable issue. Many will turn away from this conversation. Some may even scoff at the thought that the trafficked individual is a victim. "How could they not see through these lies? It's so obvious!" Traffickers are experts at manipulation. Recruiting victims isn't through violence. Understanding how this process will not only educate you further on the complex issue that is human trafficking, but will teach you how to detect traffickers.

What does the term "grooming" mean? Defined by RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network), grooming involves manipulative behaviors used to gain victims. This can be done to children, teenagers, and vulnerable adults. 

The information provided below doesn't account for ALL trafficking cases, but this is how the grooming process works overall. The process provided came from research provided by Polaris Project: 

#1 - Target the victim: The obvious first step would be the trafficker targeting their victim. When someone has a vulnerability, whether that be low self-esteem or loneliness, this creates an invisible target on their back. Traffickers see these targets from a mile away. Sometimes, a trafficker may just be charming and friendly to a potential victim. Multiple sources (i.e. Fight The New Drug, NY Post, Deliver Fund) have shared that social media made targeting victims much easier. For example, FTND shared how a team from online safety company, Bark, pretended to be an 11-year-old girl on Instagram, only to be bombarded by numerous messages from older men asking for sex. Social media has made grooming easier.

#2 - Gain trust: After meeting their victim, a trafficker works hard to gain that person's trust. Traffickers will pretend to care about what their victim tells them. Appearing to be a good listener is common among traffickers' tactics. This causes the victim to believe their potential trafficker cares about what is happening in their life. When it comes from someone the individual knows, such as a family member or family friend, gaining that trust is simpler. 

#3 - Meet the victim's needs: Traffickers will now move to meet their victim's needs. Deliver Fund says that "Traffickers utilize the information they gathered to fill a role in the victim's life. Through gifts, love, friendship, drugs, or alcohol, traffickers force the victims into a dependent relationship." Unbeknownst to the victim, the trafficker gains a power over their victim: the power to give or take away. Traffickers will threaten their victim with taking away that thing they provided, which gives them the upper hand. Not immediately, but later on.

#4 - Isolate: Now a trafficker will make the victim feel totally dependent on the trafficker. By isolating a victim from friends or family, that person now feels completely dependent on their trafficker. Feeling as if they cannot live or survive without that trafficker. A simple way a trafficker may do this is by telling their victim they don't have anyone who cares about them "like I care about you." Once that person feels isolated, a trafficker knows their victim cannot reach out for help.

#5 - Exploitation: Exploitation is manipulating someone to do their will. It may begin as the trafficker asking their victim, "Will you have sex with my friend for money?" Overtime, the victim will become conditioned to believe that having sex for money (or performing other acts) is normal. As stated by Polaris Project, "A victim may even feel like they owe their trafficker for all they have done for them or believe their trafficker when they say that the situation is just temporary or a way for them to reach their common goals, such as getting out of the sex trade and starting a family."
#6 - Control: Polaris Project shared, "The trafficker may keep their victim in the trafficking situation by continuing to isolate them, threatening them or their loved ones if they attempt to leave, controlling them through their addiction, or even manipulating their sense of self." Control is what a trafficker's end goal is. To have their victim completely dependent on them. The process then restarts for the next victim.

Once I learned about how the grooming process works, there is no doubt in my mind (based on what I read from victims' testimonies/transcript) that Ghislaine Maxwell was a trafficker. 

How can we determine who is in a trafficking situation? As discussed in my previous article, get trained. There are free programs you can use to get properly trained in recognizing human trafficking. Both Polaris Project and On Watch have excellent courses. Not to mention it is free, so it's no risk to take it! I just started my training at Polaris Project. These conversations are uncomfortable, but we have a responsibility to help others in need. If you notice something is wrong, speak up. STOP THE DEMAND.

Check out my article for Gen Z Conservative, where I discuss the history of human trafficking!

Conservatives Need To Prepare to Leave Social Media

We all witnessed how social media impacted both the 2016 and 2020 election. They deliberately hid stories that would make the Left's candidate look bad, while allowing hack stories on the former President to be shared. Not to mention BANNING the President of the United States. Recently, another Twitter purge happened, taking down numerous well known conservative pundits. Conservatives need to be prepared to abandon social media, since none of us know how much longer we'll be allowed. 

The 2022 midterm elections are coming up. We all know how big tech will influence how you should think and who to vote for. While I do not suggest leaving altogether, I do think we should be prepared for when it DOES happen. I do think we should still stay on social media as much as possible to get the truth out. At least if it reaches one person, it reached one person. That's how you make a difference. We've all been censored, but what happens when you're kicked off all platforms? We've seen it happen already. Milo Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer, Alex Jones, and many others have been deplatformed by big tech. Where do you go from there? 

There are numerous other platforms that have slowly gained popularity in the past year. If you haven't created an account on one or two of these, I'd recommend doing it. I'd also recommend sharing it with your friends, so they may join. 

1) Retalk: Retalk is relatively new still. Barely a year old, but they're a great social media alternative. The Founder of Retalk, if you recall, contacted me to write about them. While you'd think that may sway my support, it was actually once I joined that I realized they're a great social media platform. They're like Facebook, but not infringing on free speech. They have different groups you can follow and participate in, from music lovers to politics! You can't follow friends yet, but they're slowly working on it. You can follow bigger celebrities though!

2) Telegram: I took a while to understand Telegram. I mainly joined because that was how I could follow Milo, but I began to follow numerous other conservative pundits who have been banned on social media. It's basically like FB Messenger, but it's more group based. I haven't learned the way you can follow someone without having their group chat link, but hopefully it'll happen soon! Follow my chat here! https://t.me/youngpatriotrising

3) Gab: Now, I've JUST joined Gab, so I'm not sure of how they work. It seems like your typical social media platform where you can post a "Gab," which is like a tweet. They're the ultimate free speech platform. You can't download the app as it's been pulled from Apple and Google, but if you sign up, they provide instructions to add the page to your homescreen! I downloaded the browsing app, Brave, to avoid dealing with Google's censorship. Recommend doing the same! If I'm honest, I mainly joined because I saw Gab managed to remove pornographic material, something both Twitter and Facebook claim is impossible. As an anti-trafficking advocate, that truly impressed me. Be sure to follow me! 

https://gab.com/youngpatriotrising

4) Gettr: Now, I haven't joined Gettr yet. I've heard good things, but I honestly never cared to join. I haven't looked too much into it, so maybe soon I'll join but I am not sure when.

5) Parler: I used to have Parler but I stopped using it after the CEO basically caved into the woke mob. I know some people still use it, so to each their own on this one.

Conservatives should have an account on at least one or two of these platforms, even 3 if possible. If you have it on all, that's awesome! Conservatives need to wake up to what these platforms are doing. I mean, Twitter just banned the account that was tracking the Ghislaine Maxwell trial. Why? Because they don't want the truth to come out. Recently met Laura Loomer, and she gave a great speech. When she talked about social media, she made an interesting analogy. She said, "Social media is like an abusive partner. If you stay with it, you're only fueling their abuse to you." Again, I don't think a mass exodus is the solution, because we should always strive to share the truth. BUT where does it hurt to have additional accounts on these platforms? In preparation of 2022, we must be ready for what these big tech giants will do.

I did want to include about me meeting Laura. She's so friendly. She's very quiet, which is interesting considering when you see her journalism work. I remembered watching a video from Olivia Rondeau where she talked about conservatives she met, and she mentioned how almost shy Laura is. I would say shy, but she is very quiet and reserved. I was SO excited/nervous to meet her. Once she knew who I was, she's like "Oh you're the Hannah always commenting on my Telegram. Once I knew you were coming, I knew I HAD to meet you." I fangirled. I'm not going to lie. She even gave me a copy of her book (and autographed it) for free! One of the nicest people you can meet, and I'm hoping she beats her opponent!

Discussing Human Trafficking with Sophia Fisher

Image credit: Sophia Fisher

This is an interview I have wanted to do for a long time. Since getting involved with the anti-trafficking movement, I have wanted to speak with someone who is active in fighting human trafficking. As a contributor for Stop The Demand Project, I thought of its founder, Sophia Fisher. Stop The Demand Project is a nonprofit dedicated to fighting and bringing awareness to human trafficking. I sat down to discuss human trafficking with her. Read our interview below! -Hannah (aka Young Patriot Rising)

Question #1: "What led you to get involved in fighting human trafficking?"

Answer: "I learned about human trafficking when I was in high school. I was stunned that this crime happened not only in the United States, but around the globe. That's what really shocked me. That it's so prominent in society. I thought it was only something that happened at the border or in large cities. I realized I had to do something about. It's a very uncomfortable issue to discuss. Change can't be effected if people aren't talking about it or getting involved. I took a training with a nonprofit in my area called Rahab Ministries. They do a lot of work with survivors. This was the first time I really became aware with the issue of human trafficking. That's what got me in the fight. It's what introduced me to the crime. I also had no idea Ohio was one of the top states for reported cases of human trafficking. That really hit home, once I found out that statistic along with others. Since then, I've been a really outspoken advocate about human trafficking and I hope to continue to be."

I mentioned how Florida is the #3 state for highest reported human trafficking cases, and I even shared how I thought I experienced a trafficking case in Tampa at a concert. 

Question #2(a): "Why did you start your organization, Stop The Demand Project?"

Answer: "I started Stop The Demand Project because I saw a lack of attention to resources to combat this issue. I didn't want to start another organization dedicated to combatting human trafficking by providing resources, but instead highlight what is already available. There's no issue with doing the first one. What was on my heart, personally, was seeing all these organizations not get the funding or the volunteers they needed, and I thought 'Why not use social media and a team of people that are passionate about the issue (myself included) to speak up on this issue and bring awareness to these organizations?' What inspired me to start this was the severity of the issue, and wanting to combat it, but realizing there's such a lack of attention to resources. I realized we could be a hub for these resources. 

Question #2(b): "Could you also give an overview of what it is you guys do?"

Answer: "I usually tell people that what SDP does is twofold. First, we are an organization dedicated to raising awareness to stop the demand for human trafficking. Second, we are a hub for resources. We aren't reinventing the wheel. People come to our website to learn about our partners and discover ways they can get involved."

Question #2(c): "How can people get involved in your organization?"

Answer: "If you head over to our website, you'll be given the option to 'Join the fight.' There are a myriad of ways to join. You can apply to become an ambassador. You can look at who our partners are, which I highly recommend you do. Learn about them, and see if you'd like to help them. You can also apply to be a writer. We need a lot of help with providing content to educate others. Becoming an ambassador to provide video content, becoming a writer to produce educational articles, there are opportunities to join our team, or to help other NGOs. There are great resources you can find on our website, so I recommend checking them out."

Question #3: "What is the biggest misconception people may have about human trafficking?"

Answer: "That's a great question. I'd say the biggest misconception people have, and I used to hold these views as well, is that human traffickers are strangers. Think about movies like Taken, where the main character goes out to rescue his daughter and friend after a trafficker kidnaps them. While those crimes exist, and kidnapping is a real thing, it's very rare that a trafficking victim is trafficked by someone they don't know. That myth was the biggest shock to me. That it's not a stranger who does the trafficking, it's someone the victim knows. The one closest to you. Someone familiar, like an employer, significant other, or parental figure. That's what is common in trafficking cases, because it's easier for a trafficker to exploit a vulnerability they know of rather than someone they don't know."

Question #4: "Do you ever get ridicule for wanting to fight human trafficking?"

Answer: "I do get some pushback, and it's not usually because it's a hard fight. Usually what I hear is people pushing me away because they don't want to face the truth of human trafficking. I've had conversations with people online and in-person. Over the summer, I was speaking with a man. We were at an event, and I was telling him about the work I do alongside one of my coworkers. Sarcastically, he said 'Thanks so much for ruining my day.' That showed me a lot at the moment. I had to swallow my pride and ego. I come face-to-face that this is an uncomfortable issue. People will often push me, my organization, or other organizations away that are working to fight this because they don't want to face the reality of human trafficking. I don't think everyone has to be an outspoken advocate, but if you're turning a blind eye to the issue, change will never come. Everyone needs to be involved at some level. No one has ever told me to my face that human trafficking is a good thing. It's usually the pushback of the crime itself or the discussion of it because they know it's a hard issue to discuss, and would rather not have the discussion."

What Sophia then told me, which I will explain at the end, really spoke volumes to me. Human trafficking will never fully be eradicated. However, that should not deter us from making the change we can effect. Burnout can also happen very easily if you aren’t taking care of yourself. It’s important to check in on yourself mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. If you aren't okay, you won't help anyone.

Question #5: "Why do you think human trafficking is such a politicized issue?"

Answer: "I think a lot of issues are politicized when they shouldn't be. It's typical politics. Things are going to fall on one political side, become weaponized and used for ill intent. There is a lot we can do to push back on that rhetoric. Republicans and Democrats care about this, and let's not make hasty generalizations. This should be a bipartisan issue. I've seen people on both sides of the political aisle care about human trafficking, and I've seen people on both sides be guilty of engaging in human trafficking. I think we need to be careful with how we discuss this issue, and ask ourselves if we are an active part in politicizing this issue. If we are, then we need to fix that. Often, when issues become politicized, it's how we discuss them. I know there can be those on the Right who introduce legislation to fight human trafficking, and there are those on the Left who do the same. I hope to see bipartisan efforts. It's a blatant lie to say only one side cares. Get rid of the politics. Make it a human rights issue. Let's make it about that."

Question #6: "Should more young people get involved in the fight against human trafficking?"

Answer: "Definitely! I think our youth have a really strong voice. What's unique about Generation Z is that a lot of them are on social media, and social media is a tool that can be used for good or evil. When used for good, it can amplify your voice. I encourage those who are passionate about this issue to not only share it within their inner circle, but to use their social media to talk about it. It's a great tool to share your thoughts. The times we are living in are unprecedented with the resources we have in technology. There's a lot we can do to speak about this issue if we work together."

Question #7: "I've heard a lot of people say they don't think we can fight or end human trafficking since it's basically in every part of our life. What would you say to this?"

Answer: "I think that's a pretty cynical worldview. I felt very discouraged last year because I put the expectation on myself to end human trafficking. It's not a bad thing to want to eradicate human trafficking, let me make that clear. But since we live in a broken and fallen world, we have to acknowledge that the crime will never fully be eradicated. That doesn't mean change can't happen. What is change? It can be subjective, but to me, I think to myself 'What is the change I've seen?' The comment on a human trafficking post that says, 'Wow, I never knew that before. Now I do thanks to this post.' A victim of human trafficking getting rescued. That's a win. Those are the things we are doing to fight human trafficking, and what I see many great organizations doing. The crime is going to be pervasive in society, but I don't think we should take the entire burden of wanting to eradicate all of it and just say 'Let's take a hands-on approach. There's nothing we can do to stop it.' Because I'm telling you one life makes all the difference. Having that one person rescued, it's a lifechanger. I'm a firm believer in the ripple effect. If one person reads your article Hannah, and they say 'Oh my goodness. I want to do something to combat this.' Even what you said with your mom now talking about human trafficking, because you decided to talk about it. That's real change and power in that. This crime is heavy and discouraging. But there is a lot of work being done. Instead of dwelling on the things we don’t have control over, let’s focus our resources on what we can control and what we can effect.”"

What Sophia referred to with mentioning my mom is that I told her how, since I've been discussing human trafficking, I noticed my family has begun to mention it when having discussions with their friends/family. Before I got involved in the fight, they rarely mentioned it. Now, they pay attention.

Question #8: "What advice do you have for young people who want to help in the fight against human trafficking, but aren't sure how?"

Answer: "Look into what your area offers. See if there are local nonprofits. If that would be a safehouse or food pantry, you name it. There are a lot of ways to get involved locally. There are a lot of great national organizations, but I really do believe this is an issue that needs to be fought on a local level. Here in Ohio, where I am located, there is a human trafficking taskforce right outside the Governor's office. In every county in Ohio, all 88 counties, our goal is to have a collaborative taskforce that meets every so often to discuss how to fight human trafficking locally. If you don't have that in your area, I'd encourage you to consider starting something like that. It might sound crazy, but it can be done. Start holding weekly meetings with your friends. But I guarantee you can find local organizations to help. You may not find it online, but ask around. Join forces with those who care about fighting human trafficking as well. Look into what is happening in your hometown because the crime happens there. Whether you're in a big city or in a rural town, human trafficking is happening."

Analysis

I haven't really enjoyed speaking with someone like I did with Sophia. Not to discount any other interview, but the last interview I had with someone that I truly enjoyed was Mahgdalen Rose. Sophia really shared some interesting perspectives throughout our discussion. Like her discussion of the importance of mental health as a fighter against human trafficking, or that you can get second-hand trauma from seeing the dark truths in human trafficking. These stood out to me. I'm glad to have had this discussion.

Thank you all for reading, and thank you to Sophia for allowing me to speak with you! It was definitely a great interview. Follow Stop The Demand Project on Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok. 

Should Conservatives Leave Social Media?

After the 2020 election, many conservatives and Republicans decided to leave social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter because of their distain against the results. If you're still on social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook, you're often criticized for "supporting" these platforms. But should we all leave social media? One of my favorite journalists, Anthony Cabassa, asked on his Telegram why people support this, and I thought it would make for a great article.

Conservatives shouldn't leave social media. I am not saying I support what these authoritarians on Twitter or Facebook are doing. But if we leave, these platforms only become leftwing thinktanks, leading to their victory. They want everyone an inch right of Mitt Romney or Lindsey Graham to NOT be on social media. If you leave, it doesn't hurt them. It makes them think they're winning.

Also, many people use social media for their news. About a third of adults get their news from what they see on Twitter or Facebook. That's a large base you could reach through social media. Now, when you leave, who is left on these platforms? Leftwing "journalists" who use certain headlines to get their messaging out. You cannot say you want to leave when you know you can share the truth. It may get banned or fact-checked, but at least you're reaching some people. 

To say you want to get off permanently because you hate what the owners of Facebook or Twitter are doing is a bad idea. We will never be able to grow the conservative movement, nor share the truth. You share posts or retweet things you know are the truth. That reaches someone new, and you may change their mind. It isn't always guaranteed, but we can take that risk.

If you want to be informed, then help others be informed, how can you say social media isn't a good way to do so? Everyone uses social media, and it's one of the main ways people stay up to date on what's happening. And before you say, "Oh, they only make what they want to trend." Not always. When the Hunter Biden story broke, many conservatives got certain tags trending to get the word out, and it worked. It takes all of us to share the truth, but if we leave, nobody will wake up.

Clearly, social media companies don't care about the truth, or they wouldn't censor doctors who praise Ivermectin/natural immunity. To combat them, We The People have to fight back by sharing the truth in full force. So to answer this question, should conservatives leave social media? No, we shouldn't. If anything with the way things are going, we must stay on social media to spread the truth.

Is Apple Spying On Users or Helping Fight Human Trafficking With Their New Program?

This article was written on a whim, after a friend of mine tagged me to an article on Facebook regarding the topic I'll discuss, asking my thoughts on this. Apple recently announced that they will soon begin scanning users' photos for CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material). The scanning tool, "neuralMatch," will view a user's pictures and if it finds any child porn, it will be sent to an actual worker who will then review if the child porn is legit. If so, the person's Apple account will be disabled and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children will receive notification. Apple also said they will find if a user searches for anything related to child porn and blur any inappropriate images on a child's iPhone. This is causing division. Some are praising Apple for aiming to fight child porn and human trafficking, while others say that Apple will use this technology to spy on their users.

First off, now that child porn users know that Apple will be checking their photos, they won't use Apple anymore. Their life won't change, nor will they give up viewing child porn. 

Numerous researchers or experts in this field have raised their concerns about the potential abuse of power with Apple scanning photos. Matthew Green of Johns Hopkins University, has stated his views on the system Apple will use, saying it "could be used to frame innocent people by sending them seemingly innocuous images designed to trigger matches for child pornography." (Source: NPR) This is a major concern. 

Apple users worry that seemingly innocent pictures of their child, like of their child using the bathroom for the first time, could cause them to be arrested for child porn. Someone commented on the article shared to me that "Next year, That funny picture of your 2 year old potty training  and peeing in the backyard gets you 5 years in the slammer."

Additionally, people are raising their concern to the fact this is infringing on our freedom. Spying on individual citizens is a MAJOR infringement. I think this is the main issue of Apple. They don't understand, or choose to ignore this. If the government (American or foreign) decides they want to use Apple's technology to spy on Americans, they will be able to. Then they can take whatever actions they want against these Americans. For instance, if you attended a public event without a mask, they can be receive punishment by the government. This does provide reasonable concern for Apple users.

In my research for this article, I discovered that there is an open letter signed by 5,000 organizations and individuals asking Apple to reconsider its approach to tracking CSAM. The letter states in the opening paragraph that "While child exploitation is a serious problem, and while efforts to combat it are almost unquestionably well-intentioned, Apple's proposal introduces a backdoor that threatens to undermine fundamental privacy protections for all users of Apple products."

What's the real solution then? As someone who wants to see child porn and human trafficking obliterated off this earth, it's simple. We shouldn't be spying on individuals. Social media platforms should be scanned. As I've written numerous times, social media is responsible for over half of child sex trafficking cases. Instead of looking at people's private information, we should be holding these big tech companies accountable and take action against them. 

The issue isn't of what Apple is preparing to do, but what will happen in the end. If the government uses this technology for their own purpose, no one will have the right to privacy. I do think we need to do more to fight human trafficking and child sex trafficking, but spying on Americans isn't the best solution. Apple, as well as any other company similar to Apple, needs to find a healthy balance between tackling the issue of child exploitation and protecting/respecting the privacy of their users.

Gen Z, The Last Decent Generation?

Vince Dao tweeted the following, and it got me thinking about what was said. I don't think a lot of people realize this, but Gen Z truly is the last good or decent generation. The indoctrination for our age group began mainly in college, maybe high school for some. The children of today have it much worse. Many have been growing up using tablets, iPhones, social media, etc. How does this impact their development? This is a conversation that needs to be had.

A few weeks ago, I came across a video on Facebook of this little girl (probably less than 3 years old) going up to different things, thinking they were hand sanitizer dispensers, and putting her hands under. Everyone commented how cute it was, but it made me think how sad this is for young children. This is now their norm. Thinking you've got to stay clean and use hand sanitizer 24/7. Covid-19 has forced our children to fear everything.

Then there's the issue of social media. Many people with young kids allow their children to have cellphones, tablets, social media, iPads, etc. A 2018 survey showed children aged 13-17 have social media, and about 2/3 children have mobile devices with Internet. Clearly we are also seeing this age range is getting younger, as kids are now allowed to have phones or social media. These kids should be socializing with others their age. Instead, the only interaction they are used to is with a screen. We shouldn't be allowing kids to grow up this way. 

Most kids my age grew up watching television, and this has been happening since the 70s and 80s. My mom described the concept of "latchkey kids." If you're unfamiliar with this concept, it basically describes a child who would have the key to their house (since the parents were away at work), and that child would have the house to themselves. Most times, they'd just turn on the TV and watch what was on. My mom grew up a pastor's kid, so the only show she really watched was Little House on the Prairie. 

Today's shows for kids are pushing a radical leftwing agenda with seemingly innocent cartoons. Remember this recent Pride month? How Nickelodeon's Blues Clues featured a drag queen? Cartoon Network and Disney are no better, as we've seen with their recent shows or movies. They are having trained specialists tell them how to influence the next generation. They waited slowly, and now they don't worry about hiding it because it's become so normalized.

The most important stage of development for a child is from birth to the age of 3. That's when they are most impressionable, which will also determine who they will be. If you shove that being gay is normal, that the police are racist pigs, that mask wearing is normal, or that your skin color only determines who you can be (either a victim or racist), that will stay with the child for life. For my generation, this indoctrination began mainly in college. For some, it was high school. For the next generation? It's been happening since they could walk.

Why would we want a 5-year-old to be taught that if you're white, you're evil? Or the importance of pronouns? This will cause them to have a confused view of the world. Children will be insecure and have anxiety because they won't know who they are as a person. Why do we want to hurt children? Conservatives have to make the effort to fight this indoctrination. Because for those who scoff and say, "What's wrong with teaching a kids about homosexuality?" As we are seeing, it isn't stopping there.

 

Instead of fighting this, many conservatives choose to embrace these ideologies or lifestyles. When I shared my article regarding pornography and conservatism being incompatible, I got so much backlash. The comment I shared was astounding to me. If you're saying you can't talk about the horrors of pornography because you never sold your body otherwise you're privileged, then I suppose I can't talk about human trafficking since I was never trafficked. You see the insanity? We'd expect this behavior from the Left, but now conservatives are joining this inane behavior. Why are conservatives joining the woke? Are they going to defend pedophilia or children being porn stars? Because far-left activists are saying this. Regarding the tweet I linked, there is no such thing as safe porn. Pornography is a dangerous industry. Read some articles on Fight The New Drug or The Exodus Cry to hear the stories from former porn stars. 

Here's an excerpt from one titled "Mia Khalifa’s Story Is Proof Of The Porn Industry’s Predatory Business Practices" from Fight The New Drug: "Our society tends to be hypocritical when it comes to the porn industry. Ex-performers like Mia are shamed when they try to distance themselves from porn, but she’s victim-blamed either way she goes. Laws criminalize nonconsensual images like revenge porn and yet they rank in searches on porn tubes. Our culture values sexual assault survivors but is deaf to the outcries of abused performers."

If parents want to prevent their kids from being leftwing nutjobs, you can't allow the system or social media to educate your kids. Be involved in their development. That's the only way you can prevent this indoctrination. These crazy activists won't stop until they have control of all. The Left is smart about this. Conservative parents need to be warned of what could happen to their child. If we ignore what the Left is doing, they will succeed.

Cancel Culture's Key To Success

Cancel culture is a topic often discussed on this platform. I've complained about this many times, but has it ever occurred to anyone why cancel culture is so effective? I obviously don't mean "effective" in that it's an effectual tool; more so that cancel culture can succeed. Why does cancel culture work? I think it's always important to know history, because if we have no knowledge of mistakes from the past, how can we ever grow in the future? Cancel culture certainly has an interesting history, so I thought I could write about 1) the history of cancel culture, and 2) the reason what is the main factor for cancel culture to be an effective yet evil tool. I wanted to bring up this topic since we have now entered a new year. During this new year, my hope is that more people realize the toxicity of cancel culture.

To understand cancel culture, we have to know its history. "Cancelling" someone was more known before cancel culture became a thing. Some have reported that cancelling was around in the early 2010s by fandoms to criticize their favorite celebrity. There were only few mentions of the phrase "cancel culture." From what I read, it was less than 100 times. That was the case until around late 2017, when Gabby Douglas came under fire for telling her teammate, Aly Raisman, that women who are sexually assaulted basically bring it on themselves for the way they dress. Writer Shanita Hubbard defended Douglas, bringing in the term "cancel culture." Since then, the term cancel culture has been used.

There are some good aspects of cancel culture. There have been instances of cancel culture I can get behind, like the Cuties scenario. Unfortunately, cancel culture is used to control people. Not to mention hypocritical. Cancel culture will go after you if you support the wrong candidate or say the wrong thing (i.e Blake Shelton "romanticizing" minimum wage), but won't go after celebrities who do much worse (Kevin Spacey and Epstein's island). If you read my article on male victims/female predators, you know what I'm talking about. But there's even the instance where that woman walking her dog called the cops on a black birdwatcher. She got severe cancellation. The same Hubbard criticized Amy Cooper for blaming cancel culture for her actions. She's right, but why does this change when it's a white woman? I'm not saying what she did was right; it was wrong. When Gabby Douglas does something wrong, she is immune from criticism. That's one of the problems with cancel culture. You can only cancel someone if they're straight and white, or if they "offend" minorities.

Now, because of the pandemic, cancel culture has reached an all-time high. If you don't wear a mask or follow Covid-19 guidelines, you're cancelled. This is so annoying. People are letting their fear blind them from the truth. Cancel culture truly is a mob mentality. I've said this before, but I believe it's worth noting again. Publicly shaming others has been seen throughout history and has a mob mentality. Today this shaming has a new name: "Cancel Culture."

I mentioned what I believe to be the reason cancel culture is successful. Two words: social media. Cancel culture was never a success until social media came into existence. You could get cancelled if you say something to someone when there's witnesses. Instead, it could be easily recorded and put online for the whole world to see. To make sure you don't forget. Also, you can post something "wrong" from years ago, when you were a stupid teenager, yet anyone can find it and use this weapon against you. Social media has some benefits, but the issues I've raised make social media platforms a menace, in addition to the clear misuse of power. People take personal information and use it against others. Talk about insane miscreants. To go through someone's social media or hold onto a video/image from years ago to destroy their lives years later. 

Social media certainly had a big hand in giving cancel culture relevance. If we didn't have this "tool," there would be a lot more kindness and less hate in this world. I have only been okay with cancel culture in small instances. Going after people/celebrities/movies for promoting pedophilia or engaging in sexual misconduct and cancelling them is fine by me. Attacking someone over a tweet or video over a racial slur or sexual joke from years ago? Definitely call them out, but don't destroy their life over this. You don't know if that person is the same. You've probably never met that person, and you're willing to cancel them? This is why I can't stand cancel culture, nor will I support it. Now we understand why cancel culture can manifest. Social media makes it possible. 

Have you or anyone you know been a victim of cancel culture? Comment down! I'd be interested in hearing.

Pedophilia, The True Pandemic

The release of Ghislaine Maxwell's documents reveals what many of us knew: pedophilia from the Left is the true pandemic. People don't realize is how dark this whole story is. Even though there's incriminating evidence against Leftists, the FBI still tried to commit Trump and Epstein with ZERO proof. If nothing else, the election of Donald Trump showed us the hidden sex abuse on the Left that's been happening for decades. I will mention this is strictly opinion. This information is available on Google or social media. You're free to choose what you want to believe. The real pandemic isn't Covid; that's just a distraction from the media and politicians. The true pandemic is pedophilia.

With all that's coming out, more people are led to believe QAnon theorists. Why else is Twitter and Facebook removing content with Pizzagate or QAnon, but not actual pedophilia content from celebrities and insane Leftists? Big tech is also involved with this pedophilia. Don't believe me? Go on Google images, and type in the search bar "TV, Television and Film." You'll be shocked and even horrified. Facebook is now censoring #SaveTheChildren, because it "goes against their community." You cannot make this up! Hollywood knows their time is running out. Ellen's show is being investigated, Oprah's magazine is being investigated, Chrissy Teigen demands Twitter removes QAnon content who called out her blatant pedophilia, and Tom Hanks moves to Greece (ironically where sex trafficking runs rampant). Oprah is starting a show to "expose white privilege." Why did this issue never come up with her white rapist friends (Weinstein, Epstein, Clintons)? Look at the tweet from DC Draino below: see the pattern yet?

   

The Left keeps hiding the truth from us, thinking we will act like mindless sheep and ignore it. That's why they react angrily to Trump banning Tik Tok, compared to the child sex trafficking from Epstein's island. Even the locals knew about it! Most Americans are waking up. That's why so many are becoming red-pilled. It's truly horrifying once you learn the truth of what this situation entails. For decades, these elitists got away with their crimes with no accountability. Epstein and Maxwell are the tip of the iceberg. With all that's been revealed from Epstein’s island, no wonder Epstein DIDN'T commit suicide. MSM is covering Tik Tok's ban like that's the worst thing, yet barely anyone seems to care about what's coming out about Epstein and Bill Clinton. It is now proven he is a pedophile. MSM covered for Bill in the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and guess what? They're covering for him now. Nothing changed. Trivial things are distracting us, so we don't focus on what's important: the pedophilia pandemic. Even Hasbro seems to push pedophilia with their toys.

The FBI had evidence to incriminate Epstein crimes; photographic evidence of one of Epstein’s victims, Virginia Roberts, with Prince Andrew. They had this for years, and she begged the FBI for that picture to get justice. Look how corrupt the FBI really was, and for how long. I am convinced that if Hillary Clinton had won in 2016, we still wouldn't know the extent of these crimes. The election of Donald Trump brought out these evil crimes to light. The question is 1) will the other documents be released to the public, 2) will Maxwell live to testify, and 3) will the people on Epstein’s flight log get the long arm of the law? 

MSM and the Left will claim Donald Trump and Epstein were good friends, yet Clinton and Epstein’s friendship. Epstein cofounded the Clinton Foundation, and donated a ton of money!! The worst part? MSM won't cover these facts. Again, read the document. Ghislaine even said Trump and Epstein didn’t have that sort of friendship. President Trump has done more to stop sex trafficking, compared to Leftists. Americans will go to jail for taking their kids to the park or opening their gym, but these elites can escape justice, despite their sickening and illegal acts.

Here's the hypocrisy of it all. The #MeToo movement had no problem slandering Republicans like Donald Trump or Brett Kavanaugh, so why haven't they said anything about Bill Clinton and the two minors he's accused of raping? Where's Meryl Streep, Ashley Judd, Taylor Swift in any of this, or any Hollywood elitist? Because most of them went to Epstein's island. It's not surprising as it's all politically motivated. What ticks me off even more than this is that most people are not focusing on this? And how MSM hasn’t even discussed Bill Clinton's involvement with Epstein’s island is deafening. Besides Planned Parenthood, Hollywood needs to be cancelled next. They're telling us how wrong we are, yet are guilty of the same thing they're lecturing us about!

These Democrats tried to throw these allegations to Trump, but it came right back at them. The boomerang effect. The people who claim Donald Trump is a rapist are guilty of that crime themselves! Virginia Roberts said Trump didn’t do anything, compared to most people on Epstein’s flight log. With the approval of Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal to not release the documents, it lends credibility to what I say. I will reiterate that this is strictly opinion.  If nothing else happened, the election of Donald Trump revealed the evil from the Democrats. Barely anyone in Hollywood, MSM, or in politics posted about World Day Against Trafficking in Persons. Donald Trump, however, signed a bill to help human trafficking victims, and fights to end sex trafficking. Democrats don't do this. When the evidence comes out, a lot of people's favorite celebrities will be ruined. I will be celebrating when that story breaks. 

What do you think of Ellen Degeneres' show's drama? Comment down!!
