Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine pushes back on fake migrant story amplified by Trump

Here's the thing: just because the governor and mayors do not have any confirmed reports of domesticated animals being stolen and eaten as food by recent illegal immigrants is not proof that it has not occurred. There have been reports in the Media, so some people have made that claim. Getting to the bottom of it would require someone with sufficient interest to talk to people "on the ground." Not holding my breath for that to happen.

Then the claim is absolutely worthless and merely a conspiracy. Making up a baseless lie and then trying to find "proof" of it afterwards is called a witch hunt. This straight out of the Trump playbook
 
Too bad this is a govetnment program over-populating a semi-small town.

Yes, the crime skyrocketed and now that the world knows millions of dollars and police are being sent to clean up the mess
yet the governor has saif positive things about them. He has condemned republicans for trying to turn this into something negative.

he is complaining because the federal government is not stepping up to the plate and providing the assistance needed for the influx of new people which would put a stain on any city.

59000 people is not a semi small town

the city had a total population of 58,662, while the Springfield metropolitan area had a population of 136,001 residents.

Ohio GOP Gov. DeWine says ‘at least 33’ bomb threats prompt Springfield to begin daily school sweeps


Ohio state police will conduct daily sweeps of schools in Springfield after authorities have been forced to investigate “at least 33” bomb threats that led to evacuations and temporary building closures, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said Monday.

“We want to make sure, as school continues this week in Springfield, that parents have confidence that the school is in fact safe,” the Republican governor said at a press conference.

Each bomb threat has been a hoax without “any validity at all,” DeWine said.

Springfield has become the face of the national immigration debate after Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, repeatedly spread baseless claims about Haitian immigrants stealing and eating city residents’ pets.



This is what trumpery looks like.

Ohio getting the Maga treatment. I hope every adult in springfield votes blue.
 
59k is definately semi-small

Springfield is not even in top 500 of U.S. cities by population

Democrats refuse to be honest or educated on one part of this story.

Dishonest about the size of springfield means you can not be trusted
You have some issues with what 'honesty' and lying are. Everyone accepts the 59k figure for population. Because someone differs in their opinion of what small vs medium is--does not make either of them a liar. There are no facts in question, just a difference in opinion.

YOU cannot be trusted because your communication skills are spotty at best..and you say stupid shit..like:

You are assuming everyone with an opinion that differs from your is a Democrat..that's just ignorant.
For example, I adhere to neither party and have voted for both R's and D's for President, at various times.
You are assuming that holding an opinion as to relative size that differs from yours..which is, after all, just a matter of individual perception, is a lie?


Honest or educated? I've yet to see you refute any of the premises set forth in the OP. I've seen you troll your ass off--to little avail, but zero cogent comment.

You really need to up your game~

Honesty? You insult and demean in justvabout every single post you make. You offer nothing but contradictions, and you state I have issues.

Hahaha.

60k, that is a small ******* town, idiot.

So small that it is not in the top 500 towns by population

You are contradicting me? Calling 60k large? That must mean 10k is medium sized? What about a town that is 1 million people, that is large, right?

A large town must be a population that is from 20,000 people to 2,000,000 people. 5,000 to 15,000 is medium. 1,000 is small.

assuming? That is an opinion and assumption on your part.

Are domocrat or republican? I can reason based on the evidence you present that you are a far left radicsl democrat.

I dont ever see you side with me, anywhere.

These posts of your's are great, arguing that semi-small towns are large and tjat sizes are always an opinion
 
So...it looks like our pets are safe, after all--Trump cannot help himself, he just has to lie, in his attempt to pander to his hard-core base..i.e. scum-sucking racists~


Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican, distanced himself from former President Donald Trump's false claim that Haitian immigrants in Springfield are eating people's pets.
"This is something that came up on the internet, and the internet can be quite crazy sometimes," DeWine told CBS News' chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett on Wednesday.
DeWine said he trusts city officials, who have said they have not received any credible reports of such conduct.
"Mayor [Rob] Rue of Springfield says, 'No, there's no truth in that.' They have no evidence of that at all. So, I think we go with what the mayor says. He knows his city, " DeWine said.

The baseless rumors have been amplified in recent days by Trump and his allies. Trump repeated the claim during Tuesday's debate against Vice President Kamala Harris.
"In Springfield, they're eating the dogs — the people that came in — they're eating the cats," he said. "They're eating — they're eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what's happening in our country, and it's a shame."
Earlier in the week, Trump's running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, shared the claim on social media, saying, "Reports now show that people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn't be in this country."

DeWine defended the thousands of Haitian migrants who are living in Springfield, but noted there are challenges that come with 15,000 migrants settling in city with a population of less than 60,000 in the last couple of years.

"These Haitians came in here to work because there were jobs, and they filled a lot of jobs. And if you talk to employers, they've done a very, very good job and they work very, very hard," he said.
It's being amplified by the MSM as a tool against Trump. Then, when it causes threats to be made against the Haitians and even Trump himself, the left and their bought and paid for media blame Trump, instead of themselves for plastering it everywhere.

So if Trump says something crazy like Haitians are eating ppl's pets the MSM is supposed to cover it up and not talk about it at all? Right.....
 
Then the claim is absolutely worthless and merely a conspiracy. Making up a baseless lie and then trying to find "proof" of it afterwards is called a witch hunt. This straight out of the Trump playbook
It's an election year. All's fair in love, war, and politics.

It is democrats and their media who plaster this all over the news to attack Trump with for political gain, it results in threats, etc to the Haitian immigrants, then democrats and their bought and paid for media attack Trump for the resulting violence that would have never happened if democrats and their bought and paid for media hadn't spread it all over the place. The Haitian immigrants are nothing but expendable pawns democrats use to attack Trump with, just as democrats use blacks and other minorities.

DeWine is full of shit, on top of being a Trump hater. Hell, all you have to do is make a quick drive through town and you'll see Haitians with dog fur or duck feathers stuck in the corner of their mouths. Send them home. MAGA
 
These are funny posts.

These amateurs are betting everything that, out of the MILLIONS of illegals here from place where they DO eat cats and dogs, independent journalists won't find one credible report on it.

I like our odds that they will. RIP poor dogs and cats
Vance was still lying about Haitian immigrants during the debate last night, lying that they were ‘illegal.’

The Haitian immigrants aren’t eating cats and dogs, they’re not undocumented.

More ridiculous lies propagated by the racist right
