Yes ... increased crime causes expenses to go up, for all.

20K Haitians, what...?.... $1K a month, each, of outside money coming into town....I wonder how many formerly empty units Hizzoner is renting to them.

This mayor owns residential properties at which the Haitians are being housed, with gov’t subsidies. So of course, nothing to see here


There is evidence out there to support these pet claims, right? It’s time to put the evidence out there because this story is overshadowing Trump policy talking point opportunities.

Don’t trust the pols there. Trust the people who have lived there since before the Haitian invasion.

Trump needs to hold a town hall meeting in Springfield.

Funny how none of the 'journalists' will travel to Springfield to see who is telling the truth on this matter. They automatically believe a "republican" mayor (who happens to own residential properties to house the migrants and gets paid tax dollars to do so).

They are hell bent on the “false” and “unfounded” Haitians eating pets talking point. It’s just cover for the true catastrophe of 20000 Harris Haitians destroying a small town.

This has been going on in blue state Oregon for YEARS.
There’s no evidence except word of mouth because police are forbidden to cite the perpetrators! No record-no crime or evidence!
Think about it. And it’s not just with pets being eaten, it’s with paoching, killing peoples cattle and a whole host of crimes against persons.

No big deal. Their next mayor is going to be a Haitian.

You mean even the poor sad pet owners have gag orders against them?

You know, there seems to be more evidence that Kamala’s great-grandfather owned slaves in Jamaica and made lots of money with them. Given that she’s all for us paying retribution for the sins of her family members and her party that fought a war to keep them, it seems that issue would be more useful issue at least until the lost pet owners are able to go public.

You can GO PUBLIC, but it doesn’t do much good when the leftist news channels in your state WON’T COVER IT.

I'm sure Governor DeWine will get right on that 🤪

This mayor seems to be on the take, he is making a lot of money in subsides.

How would you PROVE to the media that you k-cat was killed by Haitians? IN many cases, how could the OWNER know for certain? But if a lot of people are missing cats, and had no issues until a few years ago?

But hard evidence would be almost impossible. Particularly since city officials are trying to get federal $$$$$ from the Biden administration.

We can’t even get most of the media to admit the bomb scares were hoaxes from overseas!

Well lucky for them there will be millions to go public to at a Trump rally and I have no doubt Trump will bring them on to prove to the media that they are lying once again. It will be another gotcha moment for Trump to the media. I’m looking forward to seeing this. It will indeed be well worth the time lost talking about How Harris’ plans will hurt the US economy and how No Tax On Tips, No Tax Overtime and No Tax on SS will be very helpful to the working / retired American and non-American in the United States.

Even though it’s not the plan and illegals and non-citizens should never be allowed to vote, if any do, I’m sure there’s a portion of them that will choose a bigger paycheck over anything else especially the Latino illegals since they are likely only here to work and send the money back to families where they really consider their permanent home to be.

Do NOT be surprised to start seeing signs “Illegals for Trump” with the Tax Free Overtime and Tax Free Tips - most of them are here for the DOLLAR.

i knew by the way Harris and the moderators of the debate reacted the way they did, when Trump brought it up, that this is a politically lethal story for the dems. I myself never knew that they dumped 20,000 haitians in Springfield. I mean, those people still shrink heads and drink blood potions. Doesnt matter if the eating cats story happened there or, theres videos showing its happening someplace. Smooth it over all they want...this is a lethal story.
