The cat was hiding in the basement. No Haitians took it. No Haitians are eating pets.

Vance used a police report about a stolen cat to justify pet-eating rumors. ‘Miss Sassy’ was hiding in the basement​

Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance tried to prove his baseless claims about Haitian immigrants eating pets by pointing to a police report from one resident in Springfield, Ohio, that alleged her cat may have been stolen by her Haitian neighbors.

Turns out the cat, Miss Sassy, had been hiding in the basement the whole time, and Anna Kilgore had apologized to her neighbors for the mix-up with the help of a translation app, she told The Wall Street Journal this week.

Vance and his running mate Donald Trump, along with GOP allies, have spent days repeating baseless rumors that Haitian immigrants were stealing Springfield’s dogs and cats and eating them, in an effort to further push their hardline agenda on immigration.

The claims have been repeatedly debunked by Springfield’s police department, city officials and Ohio’s Republican governor Mike DeWine. Local officials have also made it clear that Haitian immigrants who recently arrived in the city did so legally.

 
[from your link]: "Trump even raised the conspiracy theory during last week’s presidential debate — and pushed back against a live fact-check by debate moderator, David Muir."

Since when do debate moderators perform the job of a debater? If Harris handlers thought Trump was going to discuss dog eating, then it's their job to research that and craft a rebuttal.

The moderator's job is not debating. The moderator's job is not intercession. The job of a debate moderator is to ask questions and guide the debate within the rules.

Admit it, you're a third world cat eating Haitian.

Might not be "Miss Sassy" but the rumors have merit. Watch the video at 2:01.
