A Buckeye Reporter investigation has confirmed that Mayor Rob Rue of Springfield, Ohio, is renting out apartments in buildings that he owns to Haitian immigrants—a move that some local residents are calling a conflict of interest.

A few blocks away from Little and Rue Funeral Home, also owned by Rue, a 37-year-old man who introduced himself as “Works” lives in an apartment on an estate worth an estimated $1.3 million.
Works told Buckeye Reporter that he and other Haitian immigrants reside in properties owned by Rue.

According to public records, Rue owns several rental properties in Springfield through his company, Littleton Properties of Springfield LLC.
In addition to being the mayor, Rue is the President and General Manager of Littleton & Rue Funeral Home.
Rue became the Mayor of Springfield in 2023 and previously served as City Commissioner and Assistant Mayor, and is actively involved in local community boards.
Several residents have expressed disappointment with Rue’s leadership, suspecting he may have ulterior motives as he has overseen a significant influx of Haitian immigrants over the past two years.
Approximately 20,000 immigrants from Haiti have been brought into the community, with rumors suggesting that another 10,000 may arrive.

Another story that will never see the light in corporate media.
And partisan identification has nothing to do with it either. Zero.
I see the word “illegal” a lot. A lot of the Haitians have Temporary Protected Status, which makes them legal. Does this community act as a magnet for illegal border crossers? I would think it does.
There’s BIG money selling out America
DO THEY HAVE RECALL?
What’s going on is U.S. taxpayer dollars are being laundered through the Haitians to local politicians. It’s the old story of how the government uses taxpayer dollars to bribe greedy politicians to participate in corrupt government policies.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Has the mayor got all the “new arrivals” registered to vote on the motor voter program?
You want the Haitians so bad never bitch to us again. Live with it
And who pays their rent?
🤔😂. No wonder he’s saying: “Haitian problem? Never heard of it.”. Typical politician scumbag lyin’ POS.
With a name like that, the people of Springfield should have known they would "Rue the day" they elected him.
I'll bet they feel Robbed.
Only because there are more state and local officials.
A mayor is the chief executive in a city, the local version of a president. The mayor make steer some business to his family, a typical ex-President gets $500,000 for a twenty minute speech from some interested business group.
Why, you do….
Simple.
Go over the rules in the city for recall. Recall the entire board. Put your people in for the special election.
Throw the bums out.
Start with signatures for the special election
This story is repeated again and again all across the country.
(and all across the West, in fact)
The “Local Notables” are financially corrupted by personally benefitting from mass immigration and factory outsourcing. As well as things like Chinese battery factories.
Which is why the Repub Party as well as the other “Conservative” Parties in the West are so fake and treacherous on these issues.
He’ll move to FL to retire, probably.
Does anyone remember toward the end of the pandemic when all these investment firms were buying u- houses like crazy? Hmmmm, perfect rental properties for illegals who can live multiple families an a home.
Subsidies by US.
So they can call any price they want.
