DianaUmpierre Yuck

If only we had a border wall to protect these children. All we seem to have are cages...

Child marriage is one of the most egregious human rights violations against women & girls. From India 🇮🇳 to Kenya 🇰🇪 to the US 🇺🇸, childmarriage is a global crisis that knows no borders. Atayeshe phumzileunwomen mbachelet unicefchief GirlsNotBrides

DeanJohnson67 Like there aren’t enough available older women for the pervert pedophiles.

Disgusting.

skennison How does this happen

Clearly the immigration system is broken. Not sure when or how it broke. During early immigration there were strict rules for coming into the country. Nobody married to a child would have been allowed in unless they were the same age. All this looking the other way is bad.

Totally gender bias and classification of the white race!

DIYolie Petitions for young brides would get approved at significantly higher rates than that of parents/children/other family members.

The men in these marriages need to be deported.

CNN ABC NYTIMES WASHINGTONPOST MSNBC CBSNEWS FOXNEWS really! What!

Was Roy Moore looking for a bride? or was it another Chief Justice?

Isn’t that how Trump met all his 3 wifes? Huh?!

SenatorCardin ChrisVanHollen senatemajldr The immigration can continues to be kicked down the road by Congress. Get to work to address all the issues & fund southern border barrier

missb62 yes, including FLOTUS

JourdanChaTaun Why isn’t anyone talking about this !!!! Something has to be done.

enditmovement TheJHF IS_Foundation CNN FoxNews polaris CTmagazine camanpour this is an outrage!!! Enslaving young girls as brides to get into the US is reprehensible & should be immediately 🚫 stopped.

Yuk

WTF!!!!!

This would not happen if Congress ever did their job. We have A congress full of slouches, Too busy lining their own pockets

Disgusting. Legalized slavery

Thesixler 'several states — including New York, Virginia and Maryland — allow children under 16 to marry with court permission' wut

“Men”

Was Trump was of those men. That is hoe Melania got in?

DonaldTrump is all about this

Excuse I'm going to be sick.

No Moore sexual predators 😡🤬🤯

The Feds are ok with this because it's human trafficking by people with money. Case in point Epstein and realDonaldTrump underage sexcapades.

This evil Islamic practice must be stopped!!

This is insidiously wrong and just evil...in America? This is simply condoning satutory rape... pedophilia...spousal abuse...sex trafficking and every other crime against women and children on the books...This has to STOP.

American disturbing behaviors are the real crisis.

dreamhampton it’s an epidemic

THATS DISGUSTING.

This is disgusting.

disgraceful!

bubbyscoffee Little girls can’t climb walls.

Unbelievable 😡

Because why wouldn’t they? tRump himself probably signed off!!!

Dusgusting! The USA loves their drugs, child prostitutes, and cheap labor. A wall cannot cure a lack of morals.

We probably dont hear too much about this because most of these 'brides' are probably for white men.

You misspelled the United States and engages in human trafficking.

RonWyden SenJeffMerkley repblumenauer ^^

JonLemire We need a WALL the. /s

This has been discussed for years & apparently nothing has changed legislation-wise to protect children from predators. I'm beyond disgusted & outraged. Maybe if more people gave a darn, things would be different. I wish I had the power to do something immediately 😔

Gross. Where are the cries from the MAGA community for Trump to Executive Order this away?

Where are the evangelicals?

RubyGonzales2 Please tell me those were traps to catch them bastards

Definitely outraged at the government for approving state sponsored statutory rape, but can we get the names and locations of the pedos who sent in these requests? They should be on the sex offender list. genpop HumanTrafficking

OmarKelly This is pretty gross.

However if they are denied entry, y’all will cry about empathy and how they deserve another shot at freedom, blah blah. Don’t preach what you cannot back up with tangible, feasible, attainable plans.

No wonder this country is in trouble. End this now!

But but but...R Kelly tho.......

So some immigration isn't a good thing? You going to tell CA, Chuck and Nancy about this?

OmarKelly 😞 please stop posting junk bro, you're better than this gossip

This is how the luciferian left try to get you to accept pedafilia. Sneak it in.....WAKE UP

Excellent article/reporting!

Another win! 👀

SamValley I’m trying to understand what is getting at. Because men bring in child brides legally they should be allowed to do so illegally?

Trump wall

Ah I don’t cared who you love, or where they lived in the past. Love is free go get some. hugsforall

For whitedudes

All Democrats and Catholic priests overjoyed.

Bruh

Happened over the past 10 years, the Trump administration has now started looking into this. Read the article.

WTF? Awful. Child sex trafficking

Gross. What is wrong with us?

WTF...

It makes sense. Some of those women will become First ladies in the near future. So those men are contributing to making America great again.

Clearly a REAL immigration law that needs to be changed. It should be changed to the US states age of consent at least. State sanctioned pedophilia.

So, not to immigration unless it's for these men's child brides MAGA

So...our immigration policy is broken on many levels and needs a major revision. Let's get TrumpShutdown over and get to work fixing this govmt sanctioned 'sex trafficking.

I would love to see what states most requests come from.

_shireenahmed_ around 50% went to republican members of congress

Omg

But impoverished migrant women can't come here with their children. Okay.

Muslims.

I want 1 too.

A 15 year old bride is legal in The US?

But they claim human trafficking is a reason for a wall, when they are approving they be flown in?

MattMurph24 Wow no blue tape on their mouths and in the trunks of vehicles?

Child brides. America is a third world nation. USShittHole ThirdWorldUSA

_Politics Thanks Obama!

JonLemire SenKamalaHarris SenWarren amyklobuchar SpeakerPelosi AOC lisamurkowski This is so disgusting I can’t even... Put some damn age limits on immigration of brides. Degenerate men..crikey

Sex

JonLemire WTF!?

8 years old & given to get 21 year old cousin. I can not fathom the trauma.

😮

What? How can this be happening and why?

Seems like a problem at the state department

Sickening. 😡😡😡

Good god

Libertarians gonna libertarian

SecNielsen U r actively allowing sex trafficking of child brides. 😳OMG u get more and more horrible by the second. 😱🤬 CruelladeVil

Anything to please these nasty old men. Legal prostitution

Just remember this is the 'prolife' 'Christian' right. The people who scream about abortion, strip healthcare from women and let rapists sue for parental rights. Women aren't considered 'lives' to them. We are still considered property, an object that can be controlled

Interesting

Please take time to thank a (D). They've earned it!

So workers cant come, families cant come, students cant come here, but they make exceptions for men to make sure they can get their purchased child brides?

Really But families seeking asylum have a hard time!

And folk mad at R. Kelly🙄

ruthMP20 How is this allowed to happen with our immigration crisis?

And from females...?

I wonder what would happen if a 50 yo woman requests to bring in a 13 yo groom. Because obviously US authorities doen't see any problem with 13yo girls. It's so horrible to allow child marriages, that it's beyon words. We're not talking about 16 here, we're talking about 13!!!

JonLemire Disgusting

sickening

Disgusting!!!

Increasingly we act like a Third World country.

Use the right words. Trafficking, Sexual Slavery, Abuse, Molestation, Minors...A wedding ring doesn't change a thing.

Sick.

The whole system is broken, very embarrassing for the country..

maddow please make this news on your station

Ew, wtf?

Infantilized masculinity thy name is American.

Where did you get the data provided to you? Which congressional representatives gave you this information? I see your narrative push. What is happening now is we should not approve or recognize marriage overseas now? Interesting, so a lot of Muslim families will be broken up?

was that with or without tape?

Disgusting.

What is wrong with this country

Of course they did. This is the age of Trump after all.

Yuck.

Perverse!

Sounds like there could be lots of areas our immigration system may be broken. Someone needs to look at it holistically especially before any wall, real or otherwise, is built.

What the fuck?

How is this allowed? No we support pedophiles

So Immigrants are ok as brides, but can't seek asylum here⁉️🤦‍♂️

realDonaldTrump AlanDersh They dropped all the underaged girls at Epstein's, tRumps and Alan Dershowitz houses.

Ah, the Muslim way

W. T. F.?!

like to see the data for years prior to 2007. Something tells me those numbers are higher. S/b investigation into how many requested more than 1 bride & what happened to all of them & the marriage. Especially 3500 men brought in. A trafficking & terrorist loophole doorway?

Democrats agreed to this remember this when you vote for these Turkey's. This has no place here in the USA! Maga

Didn't Donald just talk about human trafficking last night? With blue tape on their mouth - tough stuff he said...this is right up his ally along with Russian strip clubs in S FLORIDA. That's classy trafficking I guess. He's added that issue to border crisis. Who approves this?

JJohnsonLaw KamalaHarris BetoORourke THIS. MUST. STOP.

AP FACT CHECK: It takes two to tango. Sure, child trafficking is wrong but, to be fair to him, she was being a child in the vicinity of a human trafficker so both sides are at fault.

Nauseating. ToppleTheWhiteHeteroPatriarchy

sick

got to get them young, once they get here, they'll get spoiled by liberism

No one has asked why? American men want foreign brides? Could it be American women and all that goes with them! Who knows.

What the actual fuck?

WTF! This is disgusting.

This is absolutely disgusting and should never be allowed. Do better

_Politics Ahem POTUS realDonaldTrump ... Is this the sort of thing that you should be cutting off

when you are talking white men, this is perfectly fine -- they are the 'real Americans' that actually count to realdonaldtrump and republicans.... women of color from other countries? sub human, inferior to white males.....

CHILD?! TEENAGE?! WTAF?

💔

_Politics Bet these men are the same ones who want to limit immigration and build a bigly wall!

How can this happen?

law_janee 🤢🤢🤢

law_janee 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁

Not through the border with tapes on thier mouths but approved by the United States Government. DitchMitch ImpeachTrump 2020

Trafficking!!!

This is why the US needs bipartisan, common sense immigration. Who knew immigration was so complicated?

_Politics That is just sick and wrong.

I’m not the least bit surprised.

Were they Republicans who did the approving? 😡

Wow, talk about hypocrisy

Last paragraph. Seems important. Shouldn’t be buried. : The country where most requests came from was Mexico, followed by Pakistan, Jordan, the Dominican Republic and Yemen. Middle Eastern nationals had the highest percentage of overall approved petitions.

They must identify as evangelicals.

MikeDropUSA Well that's fucking appalling.

Uhh. So is it wrong for us to judge other cultures or not?

I want to be surprised that this has been going on for years but I'm not. This country doesn't take any women's issues seriously. Why would it do better by girls? Sad

But Ivanka wrote that op-ed.

So the vast majority of these crimes against humanity were perpetrated while Barack Obama was President... He must’ve known! Sick! Barack BarackObama

Funny how the headline is misleading. These requests were made under the OBAMA adm. Just saying .....

Our government is approving this kind of shit, but then is flipping out over immigrants from Mexico/Central America? Our government neeeds to be turned upside down and shaken out.

This makes zero sense. If a 15 has consensual sex with an 18 year old, the 18 year old is a pedophile because the state says she's not old enough to give consent. But a 40 year old man can 'marry' a 10 year old girl and that's just fine?

Absolutely DESPICABLE and DISGUSTING!!!!!!

They are not “child & teenage brides” AP. It’s government sanctioned trafficking & you should call it out for what it is.

Was Roy Moore on the list?

White skinned ones?

thesavvypundit No surprise. American minors are forced into marriage right here in the US by “Christian” fundamentalists.

Sick.. the USA is compliant 😦

Excuse me

Wow wtf and we need a wall to stop this I guess?

We’re trying really hard to regress to a third-world country, aren’t we?

This is so sickening.

Trump doesn’t this kind of immigration..look at his wives., and what he says about his daughter . What a piece of shit!

Unbelievable, that our system allows petitions for underage children (mostly girls), to be filed for and by both U.S. citizens and permanent residents, for marriage. . .

Imagine that. Teenage brides from other countries. Sound familiar Pres Trump?

WTAF is this?!!!

What the hell.

This was approved because these people have money, power, or position! America don't accept this in this country, then why let others do it in this country? BULLSHIT!

That’s how you emigrate - LEGALLY!!!

MAGA...

WTF America

AmoneyResists This is different than sex trafficking?

realDonaldTrump

So, it appears that child sex trafficking is allright in the US as long as it is legal in the country of origin? This explains a lot about our government and the people who work for it.

Another reason to build the wall realDonaldTrump.

We need to stop letting men “marry” children here at home first - it’s child rape & it’s legal in 25 states.

What?

Of course...how do you think .realDonaldTrump got the ThirdLady in.

They are refugee brides.

What is WRONG with the Democrat Party who sees nothing wrong with our immigration system in America? All they want to do is blame the President while neglecting their own job for decades now. Congress is worthless and anti-American.

“Over the last decade”? Well, the “religion of peace” has placed itself in the government by your “favorite” President... 🤔 NoShariaLAW

WTF? Isn't that like a form of sex slavery? Why isn't that against the law?

Im waiting for a documentary on the president and all his men. And there better be one on HW and KS and every other high profile pervert. SickOfTheDoubleStandards

NEWS1130 cnnbrk

The US is so disgusting..

But the wall though, right?

Whatttt.....

The wall prevents this

Sick!

Jordan Peterson fans?

Ha. Hypocrite much? USA YUCK!

Say it with me... broken immigration system.

bama_flora Of course but they're not celebrities so it don't care about that right 👌🏿

Did “over the last decade” take up to many characters?

And yet we can’t give refuge to mothers and children fleeing violence - not sure I know who the USA is anymore

But the child didn't outright refuse - so really...it takes 2 to tango.

SenSanders SenatorLeahy PeterWelch. Please do something about this to protect these young and vulnerable women!!

Oh, gross...

chrishansen time to bring back T.C.A.P.

So I guess the government is ok with this kind of immigration, just not desperate brown people requesting asylum. Got it.

The united states of rkelly

SecPompeo realDonaldTrump PressSec KellyannePolls

This is not an insurmountable problem. This can be stopped quickly with legislation.

This is bad, but going by the laws of the nation they are leaving is absurd & undermines any reason for coming here. The laws of another place should never immigrate to here, period.

Enabling pedophilia

I noticed the survey was done in 2017. No mention of which state department approved these. You can do better AP

But won't let our neighbors in to be free frm violence and poverty 😐trump's merica is an epic failure 🤢

So they applied to come here legally? What’s the problem?

It seems that with enough money, paedophilia is legalized. Just look at all of Jeffrey Epstein's associates. Or the Dupont heir... Or R. Kelly Or the Catholic church.

Wow US behind the trafficking

Of course they did...what about R. Kelley? Oh I forgot it's ok for some

Girls as young as 13 are legally married here in the US so it does not surprise me at all that this was approved.

is culturally insensitive. What a bunch of bigots.

realDonaldTrump KellyannePolls DonaldJTrumpJr IvankaTrump What? This must be stopped!

The fuck

Not surprised. The outrage should be at the Media, who haven't done their jobs since 9/11

realDonaldTrump

No!!!! Pedophilia is not okay!!!

For the last decade since Barack was in office. This is the kind of crap that needs to be blocked.

There's no excuse.

Notice how it’s the blue states that allow this to go on? Just because something is legal in Bumfukistan doesn’t mean we have to accept it here. Shameful.

Ok, this is disgusting!

Aawwwww. True love. Sigh. Reminds me of the kind of true love our president shows when he grabs women by the pussy.

Just another example of a caring POTUS with specific interests and focus. Do we think he examined every case individually? In a darkened room. Alone..... kleenex

You notice how they left out when and who created this statute!

The Gop supported Roy Moore so....

Gross. How can we let this kind of trafficking occur aplusk go after this!

One of many, many, many loopholes in our system. Shame on us.

That is just so wrong 🤬

wtf, how does this even happen

You mean like the President?!?!!!

Very progressive!

The Mississippi Doctrine?

Making America Great Again.

Demons!

Figures

Over the past decade? Oh yeah thanks Trump 😂😂😂

SHAME!!!!

ThanksTrump for pretending to stop child sex trafficking.

TRUMP!!!

Hmmm what religion promotes this? I wonder?

Oh vomit 🤢🤮

RBG is retiring

Is this the human trafficking that realDonaldTrump was referring to?

And that's just Trump.
