The Feds Are Rescuing Trafficked Children From L.A. While Useless Democrats Grumble

Elected officials in Los Angeles and California, being invested above all in their symbol performance and their Orange Man Bad ritual chanting, relentlessly assault reality, while the people they demean and demonize spend their days running down people who traffic children for sex.

As if we needed more proof the democrats care more about the party than they do the people they are supposed to represent.

As if we needed more proof

Well, you haven't presented any proof here so I would say you need more. This bullshit article is so full of holes you could use it to drain pasta.

Democrat cities and Democrat leadership are of course working very hard to track down child traffickers and any illegal human trafficking. To claim they are not is just pure partisan bullshit, but not unexpected considering the source. The Federalist is one of the most biased pieces of shit media that print joke journalism. They should have a satire tag on any article they post.

Well, you haven't presented any proof here so I would say you need more.

The proof is there.  You just have to pay attention.  

This bullshit article is so full of holes you could use it to drain pasta

Yet you don't prove it as such.  

Democrat cities and Democrat leadership are of course working very hard to track down child traffickers and any illegal human trafficking.

Only when the feds step in.  Then the Democrat "leadership" cry about it.  Just like the examples of Karen Bass in the article.

To claim they are not is just pure partisan bullshit, but not unexpected considering the source. The Federalist is one of the most biased pieces of shit media that print joke journalism. They should have a satire tag on any article they post.

Can't dispute the information so attack the source?  Really, that's how low you want to play it?

Can't dispute the information so attack the source?

That 1 source is the only source providing this "information".

That 1 source is the only source providing this "information".

Then disprove the information.  

How, specifically, does this article show that the LAPD, the Mayor of Los Angeles, the State of California, et al, are not cooperating with federal authorities on matters of violent/trafficking crimes? The reason that I ask this is because the DoJ and LA Times reports the cooperative, multi-agency effort that was successfully completed. 

Then disprove the information.

I'm not the one seeding an article by a known extremely partisan and unreliable website as a claim, you are.  Why don't you provide a link, any link, by a reputable news source to support your claim?  Otherwise, until proven mistaken, I will remain with my "I don't believe you".

Then disprove the information. 

There is no real information in this seed, just biased conservative opinion.

Take this one for example:

Elected officials in L.A. and California relentlessly assault reality, while the people they demean and demonize spend their days running down people who traffic children for sex.

Not a fucking lick of truth, just a biased conservative expressing their opinion.

And this?

The New York Times story depicts a small and overwhelmed local police unit struggling to stem the tide of child prostitution in Los Angeles, but doesn't mention that federal law enforcement has offered significant help, and has done so quite recently.

Pure opinion coated with whining about things they feel were left out of someone else's story. "Well, they should have told the story I wanted them to tell! Whaaaah!".

The endless demonization of federal law enforcement by California and Los Angeles elected officials

More opinion wrapped in gross generalization dripping with bias.

Operation Broken Blade was a cooperative effort between local and federal law enforcement:

While they do make some true statements, they apparently couldn't bring themselves to point out that those "local" law enforcement they mention ARE the CA law enforcement run by those supposedly "useless" Democrats.

How, specifically, does this article show that the LAPD, the Mayor of Los Angeles, the State of California, et al, are not cooperating with federal authorities on matters of violent/trafficking crimes?

Once again.  Pay attention to what's going on.

I'm not the one seeding an article by a known extremely partisan and unreliable website as a claim, you are.

And you are the one complaining about the site instead of the information.  You problem is self inflicted, you always have the choice to just keep scrolling.

There is no real information in this seed

That's one opinion.

Not a fucking lick of truth

I don't see where you disproved any of it.  If you think it's so wrong, then disprove it.  

So you don't know? I do know what's going on.

By You Posting this article of Orwellian Doublespeak, you show that you do not know, do not care, or are unable to distinguish reality from lies, even when the lies are printed in front of your face.

Of course, there is always the chance that you are promulgating the lies. 

Once again.  Pay attention to what's going on.

Translation:

I don't see where you disproved any of it.  If you think it's so wrong, then disprove it. 

How do you disprove a biased conservative's opinion that something is a "relentless assault"? I guess I can counter it with "No, there is no relentless assault". That carries just as much weight as this dipshit seeds opinion does.

Can you prove that "endless demonization of federal law enforcement" is actually occurring?

The seed makes the claims and it doesn't back them up with any relevant facts, it just uses disparate cherry-picked data and conservative conjecture to support their biased opinions.

Onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit, non ei qui negat – the burden of proof lies with the one who speaks, not the one who denies

The seed makes the claims and it doesn't back them up with any relevant facts, it just uses disparate cherry-picked data and conservative conjecture to support their biased opinions.

Worse than that, even. It tells the truth and then lies about it all in the same breath, and supplants facts with bare assertion and partisan opinion. 

That one cannot tell that they are being told the truth and then the lie means that one must have internalized the lie so deeply that one can continue to believe the lie even when confronted with the truth. Side by Side they exist, and the lie is believed over the truth. 

--------------

There are four lights!

Everybody, I would like to present this article as a prime example of Orwellian DoubleSpeak. 

I tried reading it and immediately my head went sideways because the facts (from the reportage and official documents) did not match the tone or the framing of the piece. For fun and enjoyment, I had chatGPT evaluate for truthfulness and accuracy, which it did in a matter of fact way, concluding:

If I were to rate it for “accuracy and truthfulness,” I’d say it is mostly true with significant caveats. It presents accurate core facts but frames them in a partisan, oversimplified way and includes claims that aren’t fully backed by publicly available official documents.

I then asked it:

So is it implying that the California State and local Los Angeles authorities are doing nothing and the Federal forces are doing it all, while at the same time giving the true story of state and federal forces working together?

It said

Exactly — you’ve got it.

So I asked it if the article was in fact an example of Orwellian doublespeak. The reply was:

Yes — that’s a very fair way to describe it. The Federalist piece uses what George Orwell called doublespeak (or more precisely, doublethink and propaganda framing) — language that presents a distorted mirror image of reality while still containing enough truth to sound credible.

And

Yes — the article functions as Orwellian doublespeak:
it uses real events (joint anti-trafficking operations) to tell an inverted political story (that Democrats obstructed them), transforming collaborative law-enforcement into partisan theater. Would you like me to show a short side-by-side chart comparing the factual reality vs the doublespeak narrative line by line from the article?

Why, yes, I most certainly would!

Perfect — here’s a side-by-side breakdown showing how The Federalist article uses real events (left column) but frames them with Orwellian doublespeak (right column), distorting meaning through selective emphasis and inversion.

🧩 Truth vs. Doublespeak — “The Feds Are Rescuing Trafficked Children From L.A.” (The Federalist, Oct 31 2025)

Factual Reality (Documented in DOJ / LA Times / DA sources)	Doublespeak Framing in the Article
1. Federal, state, and local cooperation.Official DOJ release: “The initiative combines federal, county, and city law-enforcement and prosecution resources to combat sexual exploitation.”Partners: DOJ, HSI, FBI, LAPD, LA County Sheriff, DA, City Attorney.	Implied: local Democrats are useless or obstructive.Title: “Feds are rescuing trafficked children … while useless Democrats grumble.”→ Collaboration reframed as conflict.
2. Real operation — Hoover Gang indicted, victims rescued.Confirmed by DOJ and LA Times (Aug 2025).	Portrayed as unilateral federal heroism.“The feds are rescuing children” — omitting that LAPD officers and LA County investigators were part of the same raids.
3. California Values Act (SB 54) limits immigration detainers but explicitly allows cooperation for violent and sex crimes.	Claimed: “California forbids local police cooperation with ICE or HSI except for child sex crimes.”→ Slightly true but misframed — makes it sound like state law nearly prevents rescuing trafficked kids, which it does not.
4. Mayor Bass, as city executive, approved LAPD participation and victim-support programs.	Called “idiot Mayor Karen Bass” who “grumbles.”→ Reverses Bass’s actual supportive stance into obstruction, turning partnership into villainy.
5. DOJ language emphasizes ongoing investigation, modest results (11 defendants, multiple victims).	Portrayed as sweeping federal “rescue mission.”→ Inflates a limited but important prosecution into a mythic liberation effort.
6. Victim rescue and prosecution logistics are complex; success depends on sustained multi-agency work.	Simplified binary: feds = competent heroes, Democrats = incompetent villains. Eliminates bureaucratic complexity to sharpen emotional contrast.
7. MacArthur Park fence story unverified; no link to trafficking initiative.	Used as symbol of local decay and Democratic failure (“lost control, building fences”).→ unrelated anecdote reframed as proof of civic collapse.
8. Tone of official sources: professional, cooperative, apolitical.	Tone of article: mocking, partisan, moralistic.→ converts a law-enforcement update into ideological warfare.

🔍 How the doublespeak works

1. Selection: Choose facts that can be recast as partisan.

2. Inversion: Portray cooperation as conflict.

3. Amplification: Inflate limited successes into total victories.

4. Vilification: Attach moral blame to the opposing party regardless of evidence.

5. Emotional packaging: Use ridicule and outrage to suppress analytical thinking.

🧠 Resulting Reader Impression

“The feds are saving trafficked kids while Democrats sit on their hands.”— A statement that feels true (because it rides on a real story) but is structurally false (because the same Democrats’ agencies are literally part of the operation).

✅ Summary Judgment

Criterion	Rating	Notes
Core facts (events, arrests, victims)	✅ Accurate	Based on DOJ & LA Times reports
Description of interagency cooperation	⚠️ Misleading by omission	Omits or minimizes state/local roles
Legislative references (SB 54)	⚠️ Oversimplified	Contains partial truths lacking nuance
Tone and attribution	❌ Partisan / ad hominem	Uses insult instead of evidence
Overall accuracy	⚠️ “Truth-adjacent”	Real facts, inverted framing — classic doublespeak

you had a great post that countered the so-called facts in this seed

Well they could catch a lot more if they released the Epstein files.

Agree 100%, In the Epstein files if there is anybody that there is evidence of child abuse they should be prosecuted and put in prison.

Agree but just being on a list may not be enough to be prosecuted.  It will give some enough to accuse, cry and whine though, which is enough to keep them happy.

Due to trolling and crying about a source instead of information...this will be locked.
