Donald Trump has reiterated debunked claims that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are eating pets and vowed large-scale deportations if elected president. This assertion, initially made during a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, has been widely discredited by local officials and has led to bomb threats and school evacuations in Springfield. Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, continue to propagate these falsehoods despite no credible evidence. President Joe Biden has condemned Trump's remarks, calling them 'simply wrong' and urging an end to such rhetoric. The controversy has placed Springfield at the center of a political storm, with the city's Haitian community, legally present under Temporary Protected Status, facing increased hostility.
