‘They’re eating pets’ – another example of US politicians smearing Haiti and Haitian immigrants
By Nathan H. Dize | September 17, 2024 8:32am EDT
Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance continues to defend the false claim that migrants in Springfield, Ohio, have been abducting and eating area cats and dogs.
The Republican ticket’s untrue rumors about Haitians in Springfield reflects a long history of prejudice toward Haitians in the United States. As a scholar of Haitian history and literature, I have identified three anti-Haitian ideas prevalent in the United States that will help put the Springfield story into context.

"Blow Your Mind": Ex-WSJ Journo Uncovers Hub Of An Alleged Migrant Trafficking Network In Springfield, Ohio
Wednesday, Sep 18, 2024 - 09:00 AM
Wall Street Journal reporter Asra Nomani has published a shocking report that could soon change the national discussion from Haitians and other migrants eating cats or dogs in Springfield, Ohio, to one that is more sinister: The hub of a complex "hidden human trafficking network" in the tiny rust belt town.
"The story in this town is not about cats or dogs. It's about mules. It's a twin tragedy of migrant workers from Haiti exploited and locals from Springfield marginalized," Nomani wrote in the Jewish Journal.
She said, "Just about every week since 2019, First Diversity Staffing Group Inc. has shuttled vulnerable Haitian migrants in unmarked white Ford and Chevy vans from Florida to Ohio, where they are allegedly exploited for cheap labor by companies like Dole Food Company Inc.," adding, "It is a secretive and sinister operation that has gone unchecked for more than five years."
Nomani revealed FBI anti-trafficking agents and Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost are now investigating allegations of human trafficking in Springfield.
Quote:
What began as my efforts to track down a rumor about animal cruelty has turned into an investigation that reveals a malignant system of labor exploitation involving a local businessman, George Ten, whom Haitians and local residents call "King George," the chief executive at First Diversity Staffing Group Inc., a Springfield company that has been the tip of the spear in the alleged trafficking operation of Haitians to the town.
***
This is a story of unchecked greed and cruelty, committed not by the immigrants, but to the immigrants, with local residents of Springfield also a casualty.
Nomani provided an image of one of those vans owned by staffing companies that shuttles the migrants to factories.
The ex-WSJ journo said 'George Ten', the alleged mastermind behind this scheme, lives in a mansion in rural Ohio. She continued, "His nickname is "King George" because of his opulent lifestyle of luxury cars, cash handouts, and fast talk. For years, he has operated his reign of alleged exploitation."
This is stunning, as Nomani noted:
One Haitian man I interviewed asked to be anonymous for fear of retaliation and recalled how he was picked up by a driver for one of Ten's vans on a street corner near a Winn-Dixie grocery store in Immokalee, Florida. After the long journey to Springfield, he was dropped off at a rundown home on Rice Street, infested with cockroaches. He soon found work through First Diversity at Jefferson Industries Corporation, earning $12.50 an hour; he didn't know how much George skimmed off his wages. The home he lived in had no working heat, and he bought an electric heater to survive the cold Ohio winter, the heater barely heating his room.
What essentially began as an unverified claim by Trump about migrants eating pets has led to the disturbing truth of alleged labor trafficking and modern-day slavery in Springfield. The Haitians, here legally, are being exploited by mega corporations...
In March, we previewed to readers...[link]
She said her reporting on this would "blow your mind."
What will also blow your mind is that this alleged labor trafficking network has possibly also surfaced in Charleroi, Pennsylvania.
We cited a resident of the town, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution. In a video, the resident revealed the complex network of staffing vans in a town that is 50% Haitian. The vans shuttle migrants back and forth to several food packaging plants.

Fear and Hope in Springfield, Ohio
After Donald Trump repeated rumors that immigrants here are eating cats and dogs, I came to town for the weekend. Proud Boys greeted me.

Mia Perez started her Friday early, packing her 9-year-old daughter’s lunch and dropping her off at school before heading to a meeting at a community church in downtown Springfield, Ohio, by 9:30 a.m. For her daughter’s sake, she tried to act like everything was normal. It wasn’t. Unsettling rumors ignited on the national political stage were swirling through town that local immigrants were stealing and eating pets. The meeting had been organized by town religious leaders who were desperate to counter the claims.
Perez was already nearing her wits’ end at the meeting when her phone rang. Bomb threats had been made in the vicinity of the elementary school, she was told, and parents needed to come back for their children. It was the second day in a row this had happened. “I spilled coffee all over myself when I got the call,” Perez told me.
She rushed to the school and got her daughter. This time, her daughter had questions. Was it a school shooter, like she had heard about on the news? “I tried to explain the difference between an active shooter and a bomb threat, but how do you explain that to a 9-year-old?” Perez said. Her daughter’s next question was somehow worse: “Have we ever eaten a cat?”
Perez’s husband is Haitian. She is Cuban but had lived much of her life in Haiti before relocating to Springfield in 2017. She is an immigration lawyer and interpreter, helping newly arrived immigrants—mostly Haitians, though not exclusively—get a foothold in town. She told her daughter that, no, they do not eat cats. She tried to make her laugh, telling her everything tastes like chicken to her, anyway. For Perez’s part, she has cried nearly every day since this all began.
I arrived in Springfield last weekend on the heels of Donald Trump declaring at the presidential debate, “They’re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they’re eating the cats. 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.” That followed similar claims propagated by J.D. Vance, Trump’s running mate and the Ohio senator who represents this city in Congress.
The consequences were immediate. White supremacist groups have been seen in town distributing racist fliers and trying to latch broad grievances to nonwhite people living there. There has been vandalism and more than 30 bomb threats, and a steady stream of people from out of town arriving to tell the new locals that they don’t belong there.
Not long after I got into town, I encountered a group of about 30 members of the Proud Boys, some with their preteens in tow, sporting custom-made yellow-and-black biker jackets emblazoned with the group’s logo. One I spoke to covered his face with a bandana and declined to give his name. He said there was nothing racist about opposition to Haitians here. “We want the government to prioritize Americans over immigrants,” he said. “If you want to come to our country and assimilate, we’ve got plenty of space. But you’ve got to do it our way, adopt our values. You can’t bring your culture here.” I asked another if she truly believed people were eating household pets in Springfield. “It’s possible they aren’t,” she said. “It’s just a meme. It’s just for fun at this point.”
The Proud Boys were certainly having fun. But the post-debate weekend I spent in Springfield showed the instant ramifications of campaign rhetoric taken to a disturbing extreme. The people here—longtime residents and new arrivals—had already been trying to fight growing local division. Now it had gone national, and they had no idea what to expect.

Some reporter gets greeted by FBI agents LARPing in Springfield.
*yawn*
Also, there's no proof she was even in Springfield. I could write a story like that in an hour.

Quote:Another Vance lie about Springfield: that Haitians are responsible for a surge in communicable diseases, including HIV/AIDS. I say it’s a lie because there’s no public evidence supporting it, and authorities on the ground contradict it.

“A common myth that I’ve heard is that we’ve seen all of our communicable diseases skyrocket and go through the roof. And really, when you look at the data, that’s not supported,” Chris Coon, a county health commissioner, told the local ABC affiliate.
Once again, this lie has a deeply troubling history. Immigrants have long been falsely accused of bringing disease to keep them out; Nazis did the same to Jews.
Specifically, Nazi propaganda would regularly accuse Jews of spreading typhus, a lice-borne disease that killed millions in early 20th century Europe. Much like HIV, typhus was a stigmatized ailment stereotypically associated with the moral defectiveness or dirtiness of the afflicted. Nazi doctors wrote pseudo-scientific papers accusing Jews of spreading typhus due to our alleged “low cultural level” and “uncleanliness,” part of the justification for cramming Jews in Polish ghettos before shipping my ancestors and their co-religionists to death camps.
In the past, attention to these kinds of glaringly obvious Nazi parallels might have seemed like enough to shame the Trump campaign into at least toning down its rhetoric. But now, those normative guardrails no longer hold.
On the right today, there is a pervasive sense that any allegation of fascism, authoritarianism, or racism is a bad-faith smear designed to delegitimize conservative policies and politicians. It is a tactic used by American defenders of Viktor Orbán’s regime in Hungary, but one most often used to excuse bad behavior at home. It can be used even to whitewash the flirtations with open fascism that are common among young rightists nowadays, like the inclusion of a Nazi symbol in a video pushed out by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s primary campaign.
I’m sure it’s frustrating to be constantly accused of backing a fascist for president when you genuinely don’t see yourself in that light. But at the same time, it gives the green light to ignore an awful lot of extremely dangerous behavior.

Nah. It was frustrating 8 years ago. It makes us giggle today.
We've all tuned you out and collectively ignore you or anybody like you today. We actually appreciate your honest opinions because the second we see somebody say anything remotely close to this we know that we don't have to waste any further time listening to anything they have to say about any topic.
We also know that they are college "educated".

Trump will be fine.

What Trumptards deserve is somewhere in the range of 1 to 4. What is a 1? Or a 4?
1) The Nazi Party was formed on February 20, 1920. It wasn’t until the 1940s that people decided to kill the Nazis by the millions, but they deserved death from the day the Nazi party was formed. After a long delay, people finally made it happen to the Nazis. None of the Nazis believed it was right/just/reasonable to kill them. Their lament was “We are good people. Why are you doing this to us?”
2) The slave owners of America existed before 1776. It wasn’t until the 1860s that people decided to kill a moderate number of slave owners, but they all deserved death back in 1776. Their lament was the same as Nazis’: “We are good people. Why are you doing this to us?”
3) I have seen terrible husbands being divorced. They believed themselves to be lovable. I don’t even want to write down the delusional laments they spoke but they mention being good — more like good for nothing.
4) I have seen incompetent/lazy/dishonest employees get fired. They might have believed themselves to be vital for the company. An untrue belief. Their lament was: “Why are you doing this to me? I have a family to support.” Not for long, you goddamn asshole. See #3.
