The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The sex trafficking victim, Karla Jacinto, has now responded to senator Katie Britt, saying Britt lied about their meeting, that they did not meet one-on-one, she was not sex trafficked in the United States, nor by the drug cartels, nor while president Biden was in the White House.

Jacinto said she met the senator at an event at the southern border with other government officials and anti-human-trafficking activists, instead of one-on-one as Britt stated. She also said that she was never trafficked in the United States, as Britt appeared to suggest. She was not trafficked by Mexican drug cartels, but by a pimp who operated as part of a family that entrapped vulnerable girls to force them into prostitution, she said.

Jacinto said she hardly ever cooperates with politicians, because “it seems to me that they only want an image. They only want a photo — and that to me is not fair.”

Britt continues to stand by her story. Her spokesperson said the story the senator told “was 100% correct.”

Senator Britt evidently had not learned the first rule of holes.
