US Hits 17 Nations for Not Combating Human Trafficking
Newsmax ^ | 7/1/21 | Unknown

Posted on 07/02/2021 5:52:09 AM PDT by Whyfor

The Biden administration on Thursday designated 17 countries as not doing enough to combat human trafficking and warned them of potential U.S. sanctions. The administration also called out several U.S. allies and friends, including Israel, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal and Turkey, for backsliding in their efforts.

The designations came in the State Department’s annual “Trafficking in Persons” report, which cited the coronavirus pandemic as a cause for a surge in human slavery between 2020 and 2021. The report covering 188 nations and territories said the outbreak had put millions more people at risk for exploitation and distracted some governments from efforts to stem human trafficking.

Hmm. It’s OK for these folks to traffic hundreds of thousands into the US, but not OK for other countries? This sounds like mafia tactic stuff. Disgusting.

The Biden Administration is the biggest Human Trafficker in the world, thanks to their porous Southern Border policy that allows the Mexican Cartels to herd people into the United States for profit.

So...the U.S. government is pointing the finger at 17 nations while ignoring how many minors are trafficked through Facebook.

Exactly. “Hypocritical” is a vastly inadequate word to describe Biden and his uber-corrupt band of Commie Rats.

Trump referenced 17 quite a bit too... still does.

The largest human traffickers in human history are those in the Biden administration.

Patriots are in control. The fact is, the US is a hub of trafficking as well. Most, if not all, countries in the world are infected. There is a great purge ongoing. For the BidAn admin to quantify the number as 17, when they could have used any number up to the number of nations in the world, is blatantly obvious now for those that dig, and the number digging is growing.

Trump referenced '17' constantly, in so many ways. Here's a prominent one from 1/20/21, departing Andrews.

And Biden’s US smacks self in face in a show of fairness for allowing Mexican cartels to control admission to the US Southern border.

Pot, Kettle, need I say more?
One of the 1st things this hypocritical pile of *** did was cancel the DJTrump program to track down and arrest traffickers across the US. They were pulling in tens/state on regular basis — guess they were getting close to “select providers” like those that supplied Epstein.

Since the Mexican cartels are now trafficking people all over the United States, shouldn’t we call them undocumented American cartels?

D.C. is infested with lobbyists who are agents for companies who want human trafficking just for cheap labor makes one wonder how much money does Biden and other democrats make on the deal.
