Human trafficking is a grave human rights issue and a transnational crime exploiting men, women, and children for profit. We will continue to go after traffickers, protect survivors, and deliver justice for the American people.

Draft lottery results thoughts:
- The Mavs getting pick 9 is pretty funny
- The Kings ethically tanked all year and didn’t get rewarded
- This is kind of the risk you run if you’re the Pacers. Tanked all season just for Zubac, gotta go win a ring next year
- The Nets not getting a top-5 pick *probably* is good for the Rockets, but who knows. They might end up with a stud anyways
- It is BS that the Wizards and Jazz got to unethically tanked all season and get rewarded
- The Bulls deserved #1, but Caleb Wilson is very good
- Was kind of hoping the Hawks jumped
- Thank you GOD the Thunder and Warriors didn’t jump
