This week, former President Trump and several Republican figures have propagated a baseless conspiracy theory claiming that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are consuming pets, a claim that has been debunked by local officials. Despite the lack of evidence, the theory gained traction among some right-wing supporters, with figures like Representative Jim Jordan using it to criticize current immigration policies. Archbishop Thomas Wenski of Miami defended Haitian immigrants, emphasizing their contributions and the need for hospitality, while condemning the xenophobic rhetoric surrounding them. Meanwhile, former Democratic candidate Marianne Williamson controversially supported Trump's claims, invoking stereotypes linked to 'voodoo,' which has a long history of anti-Black racism. The White House has condemned the spread of these false claims, highlighting the need for factual discourse amidst rising tensions. This situation illustrates a broader pattern of misinformation and its impact on public perception of immigrants.
