A more truthful headline would be:
> JD Vance blatantly lies about Haitian immigrants harming pets
Yousoggyyojimbo on
>After NBC News asked the Vance campaign about the lack of evidence for his claim, a spokesperson said the senator had received “a high volume of calls and emails over the past several weeks from concerned citizens in Springfield” and that “his tweet is based on what he is hearing from them.”
>The spokesperson did not say, however, whether any of those calls or emails had included evidence of violence against pets, and did not offer proof of Vance’s statements.
So their defense is essentially that someone phoned it in and they just believed it and repeated it without evidence and without any attempt to verify if it was true.
So, the defense is that Vance is an incompetent moron.

I heard from my neighbors son’s best friend’s sister who heard from the local Pep Boy manager that JD Vance likes couches a lot.

Weird that Vance is pushing this story.
True to form I guess. Weirdo.

Anyone who is a minority needs to wake up and see what these people are doing. They target the smaller groups first and work their way up.

JD “Couch Copulater”. Vance tells blatant and obvious racist lie.

We have a lot of Haitian immigrants in Florida. Every one of them I’ve met has been extremely kind, hard-working and just wanted a better life for their family.
I hope a lot of these people are aware of Trump/Vance spreading these horrible racist rumors about them. Might be motivation to vote!

JD Vance with the “big, if true” claim of the day. His problem is he can’t follow the Bannon strategy of flooding the zone with shit. He doesn’t lie as fast and frequently as trump, so the fact checkers can catch up more quickly.

One of my friends is a Haitian immigrant. He doesn’t even like sushi.

Their FUD slinging before the debate was ruined and they are still running the playbook. I’m guessing between the false drunk driver video and this they were anticipating the right wing stooges to amplify these messages right before a debate, and bring it up during to put her on her heels about false messages which she couldn’t fathom to think of a response of such insanity. Russia got caught paying the influencers that would push such blatant falsities, and here we are with them still trying to run the FUD playbook. Game, set, and match

JD Vance lies. JD Vance spreads lies. JD Vance is willfully spreading hateful, racist lies. Don’t excuse, don’t chastise, don’t explain; simply call it what it fucking is.

It never ceases to amaze me that we live in an era where you can prove or disprove ANY FACT INSTANTLY, and yet people still choose to believe the first thing they hear unchallenged.

For those wondering what exactly is going on here, two different Ohio news stories were fused together:
– [A guy in Springfield OH](https://youtu.be/VL4JXoFcJQI?t=4261) claimed that Haitian migrants were grabbing ducks from the park and eating them during a City Council meeting, although most of his complaints were about bad Haitian drivers. The duck thing was just a throwaway line in the middle.
The actual cat story and unconfirmed Haitian refugee duck story fused into the “Haitian migrants will eat your pets” story, currently being spread by all the worst people on Twitter for obvious reasons.
