The Britt Controversy

Katie Britt shared a horrific story of abuse and blamed it on Joe Biden’s border policies.

The facts tell a different story.

- The events happened between 2004 and 2008 when GW Bush was president.

- The abuse happened in Mexico. US border policy was not a factor.

- The woman was not abused by migrants.

- The woman was not abused by drug cartels.

Here is a transcript of how Britt recounted the story. I’ll let you judge whether it’s misleading.

“I traveled to the Del Rio sector of Texas, where I spoke to a woman who shared her story with me. She had been sex trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12. [Details redacted.] We wouldn’t be okay with this happening in a third-world country. This is the United States of America, and it’s past time we start acting like it. President Biden’s border policy is a disgrace.”
