Comments by former President Donald Trump about immigrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, insulted Haitians and those living in Springfield dealing with what has become a difficult situation, said a local Catholic official.
"The Springfield community, the vast majority of migrants I've known, have been trying to make the situation work out for everyone," said Tony Stieritz, chief executive officer of Catholic Charities Southwestern Ohio.
Trump's remarks, during the Sept. 10 debate, offered no proof, and anyone in a position to know, including Springfield city manager, said they were pure fabrication. Television comics used the remarks as fodder and some of the estimated 67 million viewers of the debate might have thought they had stumbled upon a "Simpsons" episode, the comic cartoon set in a fictional Springfield.
But for those ministering to Haitian migrants in the Ohio city of about 60,000 there was no humor.
Two days after the debate, Springfield City Hall was closed due to bomb threats. At least two city schools were also evacuated and one school closed for the same reason. School officials at Springfield's Catholic Central School dismissed students on the morning of Sept. 13 citing a need for caution and two local hospitals — Kettering Health Springfield and Mercy Health Springfield Regional Medical Center — were forced into lockdown due to bomb threats Sept. 14.
Catholic Charities Southwestern Ohio, a part of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, has assisted other agencies in helping Haitians in Springfield. An estimated 15,000 Haitians have arrived in recent years, many of them with protected status, granted because they are fleeing violence in their homeland. Many are legally entitled to work.
Catholic Charities has provided job placement services, English classes and food assistance, helping to aid the influx to the small city but more federal assistance is needed, said Stieritz.

What about the harmful rhetoric calling for infanticide and the death of the traditional family... don’t they deserve a mention?
If Catholic Charities was not raking in money on the illegal invasion scam they would be saying “GET THESE DEGENERATES OUT OF OUR COUNTRY”.
Catholic Charities is part of the mass financial scam of (leftist) American government paying for the invasion of the country to benefit big business and gov’t cronies with cheap labor subsidized by taxpayers
Catholic Charities and Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society have been the two largest providers of the funding and logistics for the invasion of our country.
Why do Democrat officials care more about illegal aliens than native citizens?
Catholic churches and schools are using this to replenish their falling attendence. The aftermath of the priest scandals, bankruptcies and payouts have made for an exodus from the church. I’ve seen it in our parish.
US tax payers keep Catholic Charities flush with cash to traffic humans.. Just wait until the new imported Africans meet up with the newly imported Haitians…
For an organization claiming Peter’s key they are deaf, dumb, and blind to Peter referencing Joel the prophet…
It is shameful. I am for ending all tax exempt status of everything: family trusts, churches, 501 C3. Everything. People who want to contribute to their church or organization will continue to contribute and do not need a tax deduction. We contribute to Free Republic, and we do not get a tax deduction. We support its purpose
Tax the churches!
Boo Hoo. Did they run out of American little boys to diddle?
But of course they do, when you consider how much lucre illegal immigrations put into their coffers directly from government and from the majority Catholic illegals.
Bemoan.
Bemoan.
🤣
“..Why do Democrat officials care more about illegal aliens than native citizens?...”
Aways follow the money trail when it comes to these vile commie basstids.
Votes = Power = Money
Both, along with others like em, need to be sued out of existence....forever.
They need to be run out of the country on a rail.
Catholic Charities.
Maybe they should recognize the distinction between immigrants, terrorists, gang members, and drug dealers.
They are illegal alien invader criminals. What don’t these church misinformed nitwits understand???
