At a Tuesday gala dinner at Mar-a-Lago, Oscar-winning actor Mel Gibson discussed the persistent child trafficking issue and blamed it on the Biden-Harris administration’s open border policy. Gibson applauded President-elect Donald Trump and harshly blasted the Biden administration, calling the last four years thinly veiled Marxism, while speaking at the event organized by the group America’s Future.

During his speech, Gibson, a father of nine, passionately expressed his concerns about child trafficking. he declared, drawing a round of applause from the audience saying that If one of them got stolen or trafficked, or something, he’d have to kill someone. His remarks were in line with the event’s focus on combating the exploitation and trafficking of children, which was further emphasized by the recognition of Gen. Mike Flynn for his work with the charity.

Gibson, who was in attendance alongside Trump, Kid Rock, Russell Brand, and Tucker Carlson, referred to the incoming Trump administration as a four-year grace period after what he described as a period of Marxist governance. he added that they’ll see how much the current administration can claw back from the Philistines.

The media quickly jumped on Gibson’s comments, with outlets like The Daily Beast misrepresenting his statement. The publication ran a headline that claimed Gibson threatened to kill someone, which many viewed as a distortion of his actual message.

Gibson, who was an executive producer for the 2023 box-office hit Sound of Freedom, which dramatizes the efforts of former federal agent Tim Ballard to rescue children from trafficking rings, has been a vocal advocate for the cause. Trump himself hosted a screening of the film at his Bedminster, New Jersey club, calling it an incredible inspiration.
