Senior adviser to President Donald Trump, Lynne Patton, discussed Trump’s commitment to combatting child trafficking by reinstating Title 42. the heels of the huge success of the box office smash Sound of Freedom.
Speaking to Breitbart, Patton told host Matthew Boyle that Trump intends to reinstate Title 42 on day one if he is re-elected president to fight child trafficking.
Her comments come on the heels of the huge success of the box office smash Sound of Freedom.
The program was allowed to expire earlier this year under the Biden administration.
“On day one when Trump gets back in office in 2024, he has pledged to reinstate title 42, which will immediately and safely return children, migrant children, unaccompanied minors, back to their own families in their own countries where they belong,” Patton pledged.
“Right now, a lot of your listeners might not know, but Biden – obviously everybody knows he undid Title 42 – but what that does, is it also, it forces migrant children to be released into the interior of the United States, where they are at the mercy of these predators, and so it’s extremely dangerous,” she said.
“It wasn’t just kind of to prevent people from having COVID into this country, it was basically, you know, to prevent unaccompanied miners, all these types of unsafe conditions from transpiring, and the fact that this current administration let that expire is inexplicable.”
Patton also emphasized Rump was fighting to combat human trafficking in his first term in the White House.
“Here’s the crazy thing in the middle of – this was before the Mueller report was even released, right, and everybody was thinking this was going to be the hammer that basically tied Trump to collusion with Russia and all this stuff – and even in the midst of all that, President Trump was focused on saving children,” Patton said.
“And I want to say that even in the midst of all these continued false indictments this week, and last week, he’s still focused on saving children.”
She also noted Tim Ballard, the special agent portrayed by John Caviezel in Sound of Freedom, met with Trump at the White House and became part of his administration.
“He had Tim Ballard at the White House long before most people even knew who he was,” Patton said.
“But he was, obviously, Ballard was a former special agent with Homeland Security and founder of Operation Underground Railroad at the time, which rescues and rehabilitates victims of human trafficking, and at the President’s invitation, he came to the White House, talked about these stories, and that obviously human trafficking is the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the world,” she added.
“Over 50 million victims are in human… or sex slavery globally today, which in the movie, if you watch it, they say that more humans are trapped in slavery today than at any other time in history, including when slavery was legal. So that’s just mind-blowing,” Patton continued.
“Ballard told Trump a story about how, you know, you can sell a bag of cocaine once, but you can sell, unfortunately, a ten-year-old child for at least five to ten times a day for ten years straight, and it’s heartbreaking, and I think that really struck a chord with Trump,” she added.
“And you know, that very day, he ended up appointing Ballard to his White House advisory council to end human trafficking, and this was back in, you know, 2017.”
Trump ignited the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act of 2018, effectively shutting down the website Backpage “which was obviously one of the biggest sorts of underground websites for sex trafficking.”
Patton added, “I think Trump indicted seven people who were responsible for operating and running and pimping men and women out on that page.”
“So it’s amazing how far we’ve come today, where Joe Biden is arguably, and his immigration reckless immigration policies are arguably turning the southern border into the largest human trafficking crisis in the world,” she said.
“We’ve done a complete 180, Matt, since Trump’s last office in this area, and Tim Ballard is the first to point it out.”
