Media bring ‘anonymous’ sexual allegations against anti-trafficking hero
Media operatives last week brought seven sexual assault allegations against Sound of Freedom hero Tim Ballard from anonymous women, accusations which Ballard has categorically denied.
Sound of Freedom, a thriller based on Ballard’s real-life exploits to infiltrate child sex trafficking rings, is a sleeper hit which has so far pulled in over $200 million since its release in July. The movie has struck an emotional chord with many Americans who feel organized pedophilia is being overlooked.
Media operatives, however, have relentlessly lashed out against the film. In addition to claims of “racism,” “QAnon ties,” and “antisemitism,” media sites have also run reports against small time donors to the crowd-funded film.
On Monday Vice cited unidentified sources — including an anonymous letter — that Ballard sexually assaulted seven women during his child rescue missions. The report, which is quick to note Ballard's support for Donald Trump, claims that while the former Homeland Security agent was undercover he was assisted by women who pretended to be his wife. During these highly risky operations, Vice insists, Ballard took advantage of the women who were aiding him.
Vice claims to have learned this from sources “familiar with the situation” who say the women are remaining anonymous “because they fear retaliation” — though it is unclear what retaliation they would face. The news site, recently acquired by a fund linked to billionaire George Soros, admits it has not heard directly from any alleged victims.
For his part, Ballard vociferously refuted the report.
“As with all of the assaults on my character and integrity over many years, the latest tabloid-driven sexual allegations are false. They are baseless inventions designed to destroy me and the movement we have built to end the trafficking and exploitation of vulnerable children," Ballard said in a statement published through the SPEAR Fund, a nonprofit for which Ballard is a senior advisor. The SPEAR Fund collaborates with anti-trafficking organizations and funds their efforts.
"We will keep fighting for the vulnerable all over the globe, and we know that the truth will always prevail,” Ballard added.
Sound of Freedom has stirred controversy by calling attention to pedophile rings such as that run by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who counted many powerful leaders — such as CIA Director William Burns — among their associates. None of those associates have been charged, however, and accusations against them are quickly covered up by media operatives. This has sparked widespread anger which has been exacerbated by Sound of Freedom.
Ballard himself has kicked the media’s nest by drawing strong comparisons between child sex traffickers and supporters of gender ideology.
In a recent interview with Tyler O’Neill and Sound of Freedom star Jim Caviezel — who plays Ballard in the film — Ballard revealed the strategy child traffickers use. By studying their literature, he said, he discovered the doctrines they had developed, which he says was akin to a political platform.
“I called them ‘The pedophile network doctrines,’" he shared. “They include things like: separate children from parents because parents are a bad influence, the state knows best; sexualize kids, let them see pornography; take God out of education because that just gets into the way; consent, consent, consent — children can consent to anything. At 12 years old they should be able to vote, they should be able to do anything.”
In April, a report endorsed by the United Nations claimed that children can indeed consent to sexual relationships despite age of consent laws.
Ballard said that the very agenda he risked his life to fight is now being pushed into mainstream culture by Leftism.
“Now, what am I saying here? My stomach is getting sick as I’m reading this, I read this every day — it’s the Woke Left agenda. I’m not saying they’re colluding or talking, it doesn’t matter, it’s the same dark source. But pedophiles are sitting back right now saying, ‘We’ve been pushing this agenda for decades and now we don’t have to push anymore because the Left is taking care of it for us in America.’”
Essential to that agenda is gender disorientation, which is being forced on children in the form of indoctrination and even genital mutilation.
“And this whole trans voice on children,” Ballard went on. “You know, again, I’m Libertarian: adults, do whatever you want. I’ll fight for your right to do whatever you want in terms of adults. I’m talking about children. And what they are saying is that children can consent to having their bodies filled with a chemical that will destroy their reproductive system. They can consent to ripping apart their genitalia. This is insanity. In and of itself it is horrible, but what it will lead to is what the pedophiles have been asking for. If you can consent to that, guess what? What’s more fluid than gender? AGE."
