Steve Hilton spoke from Figueroa Street in Los Angeles late Friday night while describing what he said he witnessed while working alongside a nonprofit focused on rescuing girls from sex trafficking.

“So I’m here on Figueroa Street in Los Angeles. It’s around midnight on Friday night. We’ve been driving up and down 50 blocks. I’m with a nonprofit that rescues young girls who’ve been trafficked for sex,” Hilton said.

Hilton said the organization rescues American girls from across the country and described the ages of those involved.

“Every year, they rescue about 100 or so, sometimes 200 mostly between the ages of 12 and 14, from all across the country. These are American girls right here in Los Angeles, which has become the world capital for child sex trafficking,” Hilton said.

Hilton directly criticized Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Gov. Gavin Newsom, saying neither had taken action.

“What’s Karen Bass doing about it? Nothing, what is Gavin Newsom doing about it? Nothing,” Hilton said.

Hilton described what he said he observed as deeply disturbing and said it was taking place under current state and local leadership.

“This is one of the most shocking things I’ve ever seen, and it’s happening right here in California, in Los Angeles, under the rule of these people that never stop lecturing us about compassion and equity and gender equality,” Hilton said.

Hilton concluded by rejecting the situation and calling for it to end.

“It is totally unacceptable. I will not accept it. This has to stop,” Hilton said.
