Television star Roseanne Barr has posted an unusual message praising President Donald Trump for freeing 'children held in bondage', in an apparent reference to a conspiracy theory about satanic child sex abuse at the highest levels of government.
'President Trump has freed so many children held in bondage to pimps all over this world. Hundreds each month. He has broken up trafficking rings in high places everywhere,' Barr tweeted on Friday.
'I disagree on some things, but give him benefit of doubt-4 now,' she continued.
After initial confusion, Barr retweeted several links reporting recent law enforcement initiatives against human trafficking, including a March 13 White House statement announcing that DHS had made 1,602 arrests and 578 convictions in trafficking cases in 2017.
But for many, Barr's cryptic message, which came on the heels of her wildly successful sitcom reboot, appeared to be a callback to earlier mentions she has made of the 'QAnon' conspiracy theory.
In response to the storm of speculation, Barr posted again a few hours after the initial tweet: 'I have worked with victims of trafficking for decades & supported the fight against it. Sorry to have mentioned it here. It's not the place.'
