Katie Britt finally admits sex-trafficking story isn't linked to Joe Biden: report
U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) has until now been silent regarding whether she falsely linked Joe Biden to a cartel sex-trafficking story, but that's over as of Saturday.
On Friday, one independent journalist raised questions about Britt's story, told in response to Biden's State of the Union address, about a woman who had been sex-trafficked by a Mexican cartel. While her speech seemed to imply this happened in the U.S. under Biden, the report suggested it happened under George W. Bush's presidency, and in Mexico.
One Alabama columnist tried to get an answer from a Britt spokesman, but ended up getting what conservative attorney George Conway called a "non-denial denial" instead of straight talk.
Now, however, the Washington Post has reportedly confirmed the truth:
"Sean Ross, Britt’s communications director, confirmed that she was talking about Karla Jacinto Romero — who has testified before Congress about being forced to work in Mexican brothels from 2004 to 2008," the outlet reported Saturday. "
A viral TikTok by journalist Jonathan Katz first revealed that Britt was speaking about Romero.) In a phone conversation and a statement, Ross disputed that Britt’s language was misleading."
The Post, however, vehemently disagreed.
"Britt’s account of Romero’s experience was a centerpiece of her rebuttal to Biden’s address. The way Britt sets up the story, there is no indication that she is talking about a woman who was working in brothels in Mexico during the George W. Bush administration," according to the Post's fact check. "But Biden has nothing to do with Romero’s story."
The article continues by suggesting Romero was "never trafficked in the United States."
"In a high-profile speech like this, a politician should not mislead voters with emotionally charged language," the article states. "Romero’s story is tragic and may be evocative of other Mexican girls trapped in the sex trade in that country. But she was not trafficked across the border — and her story has nothing to do with Biden. Britt’s failure to make that clear earns her Four Pinocchios."
