Ohio police have 'no credible reports' of Haitian immigrants harming pets, contradicting JD Vance's claim

Vance wrote on X that “people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn’t be in this country.” Police say they haven’t seen evidence.

Police in Springfield, Ohio, said Monday they had received no credible reports of immigrants harming pets, contradicting a claim by Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance.

The senator from Ohio, as well as other Republican lawmakers and several conservative commentators, have in recent days asserted without evidence that the arrival of thousands of immigrants from Haiti had created chaos in Springfield.

In a post on X, Vance wrote Monday that “people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn’t be in this country.”

Of course not. It’s just pure racism. They’re a couple of baby steps away from just yelling the N-word.

Is it really a dog whistle when normal humans can hear it?

It’s a siren eliciting the howls.

At least Ted wasn’t retweeting step-sibling porn again. So, it’s an improvement.

Nah, kink shaming isn’t cool even if it’s Ted "100% Human candidate“ Cruz.

Racism shaming always is, though.

He’s a vile racist man who drove his daughter into trying to kill herself

Viking_Hippie ,

Absolutely. So use THAT ammo to shoot the bastard rather than the shotgun shell of kink shaming that might hurt bystanders who happen to share the same taste in porn.

Apologies for the tortured metaphor lol

TexasDrunk ,

It’s hypocrisy shaming. These are the people trying to get porn banned.

Viking_Hippie , (edited )

Still risks harming bystanders who just happen to share the taste in porn.

It’s like using homophobic tropes to attack Lindsay Graham: the bigots deserve it, but the others you’re also ridiculing even if you don’t mean to don’t.

TexasDrunk ,

You’re not wrong, and I know that I personally need to be more careful in making sure I’m calling out the hypocrisy of it. I’m going to make an effort to be explicit in what I’m calling out.

AbidanYre ,

I would prefer official government accounts not share any hardcore porn. That one just happened to be incest themed.

They takin goats?? Griot is delicious hook that shit up

I mean there was that story about RFK eating dog. I think he’s a citizen though, as much as I’d love for him to go away.

(NOTE- the story was found to be false.)

Was that his failed attempt to attract female childless catowner voters?

Demagogues gonna demagogue.

Coreidan ,

You can shorten the title to “Ohio police have no credible reports.” and it would still be accurate.

This is the fucking VP nominee for president who has a near 50% chance of being actual VP. Insanity.
