UFC President Dana White’s appearance alongside former President Donald Trump Saturday wasn’t the only way he irked leftists as he stepped up in a big way to support exposing human trafficking and the film “Sound of Freedom.”
The shroud of mystery that has remained covering Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex trafficking conviction without the exposure of her or Jeffrey Epstein’s clients appeared to be slightly peeled back this week as corporate media made efforts to slam Angel Studios latest production as “QAnon-inspired.”
Bucking the narrative promoted by CNN, The Washington Post and Rolling Stone that the film starring Jim Caviezel about the true story of former Department of Homeland Security Special Agent Tim Ballard’s efforts to dismantle child trafficking rings is mired in conspiracy theory, White took to social media to go beyond merely promoting the film.
“There’s a new movie out called the ‘Sound of Freedom’ and it’s about human trafficking; more importantly the trafficking of children. This is a disgusting, horrific issue that’s happening all around the world and it’s not getting better, it’s getting worse,” he began. “And what I’m gonna do is, I’m gonna give any of my UFC employees that wanna see this movie free tickets to go see it, and I would like to encourage other executives to do the same at their company.”

The video went on to include a clip from Academy Award winner Mel Gibson who has also been active in promoting the film bringing awareness to the extent of human trafficking, number of slaves in the world reportedly higher than any other point in history and the market in America complicit in its ongoing funding.
“One of the most disturbing problems in our world today is human trafficking, and particularly, the trafficking of children. Our future is out children,” Gibson said. “Now, the first step in eradicating this crime is awareness. Go see ‘Sound of Freedom.'”
The message has broken through to American audiences as the July 4 release trounced the fifth installment in the Indiana Jones franchise on the Independence Day holiday and had brought in over $27 million by Friday placing it third at the domestic box office nearly matching the Disney-produced Harrison Ford film again despite playing in 1,800 fewer theaters.

Meanwhile, CNN picked up the conspiracy theory narrative drummed across the leftist echo chamber as they tore into devout Christian star Caviezel with “CNN Tonight” host Abby Phillip saying, “Mike, the star of this film, Jim Caviezel is coming under a lot of scrutiny for his embrace of QAnon conspiracy theories. And you seem pretty familiar with him because he doesn’t really hide his association with this real wild plot that involves, you know, drinking the blood of children and things like that.”
Author Mike Rothschild replied, “No, he doesn’t hide it at all. And you have a lot of people who are in this world of QAnon who say, oh, they don’t know what that is. They’ve never heard of it. They’re just asking questions. With somebody like Jim Caviezel, he is openly embracing and he’s openly using its catchphrases and its concepts. He’s speaking at QAnon conventions. And this film is being marketed to either specific QAnon believers or to people who believe all of the same tenets as QAnon, but claim they don’t know what it is.”
Rothschild went on to contend, “We know it has real victims. No one is denying that, but these films are created out of moral panics. They’re created out of bogus statistics. They’re created out of fear.”

Certain to further grate on corporate media’s attempt to squelch the performance of “Sound of Freedom” at theaters, and by extension the work of organizations like Ballard’s Operation Underground Railroad, was the fact that both White and Gibson were seen at UFC 290 in Las Vegas alongside their most hated former leader, President Donald Trump.
Regardless of the spin put out by CNN and their ilk, the public has shown their favor for the film and supporters like White.
Hey @cnn and @RollingStone you guys are despicable in trying to throw shade on this Sound of Freedom movie and about this horrendous crime on trafficking children.
Dana White has if right and he will fight for the children.
Bravo Dana and Mel. https://t.co/lEPiH2pHAL— Lorne Victor✝️♦️ (@lornevic) July 9, 2023
