This article from the Daily Wire claims that Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and the Department of Health and Human Services are allowing immigrant children to being sold into human trafficking. Very misleading and Kamala Harris actually did the opposite she pushed for laws to prevent things like that from happening and they also said in the article that the Department of Health and Human Services aren't law enforcement, technically they're not wrong about that but also they are part of the government which would technically make them part of the law. So they're kind of wrong on that one. And if this was legit then they would get impeached and they would also launch an investigation on the Department of Health and Human Services if they actually allowed to happen or not. She also shut down Backpage.com a website that has been know to be used by sex traffickers to sell sex slaves and children.
