[BLAZE] Former President Donald Trump plans to host a screening of the massively successful anti-child-trafficking film "Sound of Freedom" at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, next week.
The film's producer, Eduardo Verástegui, will join Trump at the July 19 screening along with star Jim Caviezel and Tim Ballard, the former Department of Homeland Security agent whose dogged pursuit of child traffickers is the subject of the film.
Trump campaign adviser Jason Miller announced the screening on Steve Bannon's show "War Room," noting that "evangelical allies," Bedminster members, and people from all around the country will be joining the former president to watch the film.
Trump's team emphasized in a corresponding statement that the former president takes the matters raised in the film deadly seriously, having "signed an executive order directing federal law enforcement to prioritize demolishing the criminal organizations behind forced labor, sex trafficking, and child exploitation[,] ... signed nine pieces of bipartisan legislation to combat human trafficking, both domestically and internationally, approved the largest DOJ grant package in history to combat human trafficking, and doubled the amount of DOJ funding to combat human trafficking."
