    Xenophobic nonsense from right wing leaders..not random posters but Vance, Trump, Musk, Senate GOP, Cotton, etc. Basically a fake Facebook claim gets so repeated it’s now as popular as the cat litter in school stories. Police had to release a statement “No credible reports exist of immigrants abusing or eating pets”.

    They are weird.




    JD Vance repeats baseless claim Haitian immigrants are eating pets as Ohio officials say there is no evidence


    Officials in Springfield, Ohio, said Monday they have not received any credible reports of Haitian immigrants abducting and eating pets, despite viral claims on social media that have been amplified by Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance and others.

    References to the claim, which allege Haitian migrants have been eating cats, as well as ducks and geese, have garnered millions of views on X, with Vance's X post racking up 4 million views alone, as of Monday evening. Vance, the Republican senator for Ohio, said he had previously raised the issue of Haitian immigrants "causing chaos all over Springfield," adding, "Reports now show that people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn't be in this country."

    The House Judiciary GOP, Sen. Ted Cruz and Elon Musk, the owner of X, also posted about the claim on Monday. Cruz, a Texas Republican, posted a meme on X showing two cats holding each other, with text that reads "Please vote for Trump so Haitian immigrants don't eat us."

    But the city's spokesperson told CBS News there have been "no credible reports or specific claims" of pets being harmed by migrants.

    Gird up. It's going to be a long string of this stuff until 11/5 and then the election stealing stuff if Harris wins after.

    People complaining about the price of groceries should be on board with this. It keeps the price of meat down

    These stories always cause me to chuckle about the many posters over the years who have suggested we've made so much racial progress over the years

    That duck is about to feel the full wrath of the cat's dissatisfaction with the current situation that it's in. I want to see the AI generated image 0.5 seconds after this frame.

    So far, we have stories of improper behavior by Vance and couches (she was just asking for it) and now Haitians stealing and eating cats. Hang on, its only September. I can’t imagine how but the stories will get even crazier.

    Yes, because eating your neighbor's pet/s should be legally allowed? Wow, the Dems are crazy weird.

    Weirdly, you missed the point. This ain't happening.

    Also, neighbor pet eating is already illegal based on property and animal cruelty laws. Weird you don't know that.

    Clearly Trump and JD did not consult with RFK jr before initiating this campaign.
