Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota claimed Friday that an influx of 20,000 Haitian migrants “breathed a new life” into Springfield, Ohio, during a press conference.
Residents of Springfield interviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation outlined how the community had struggled to handle the influx of migrants, who they say have contributed to an increase in traffic accidents and skyrocketing housing prices. Omar criticized former President Donald Trump and Republican Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio for bringing up unconfirmed reports of pets being stolen and eaten in the town by Haitian immigrants.
“I know, as an immigrant, what it feels to have a light shined on your community that threatens your very existence as you come into a country seeking safety after you’ve survived a tremendous journey,” Omar claimed. “I know what it means for the hopes and aspirations that you have in being welcomed into your new community be dashed, and so I deeply feel for our Haitian immigrants.”
Here’s the thing…our house, our rules. You don’t get to come into this country illegally and do whatever the hell it is you want while we, the taxpayers, fund it. The mass, illegal migration is one of two things…it’s being allowed to happen on purpose, or our elected officials are completely incompetent…I guess it could be both at the same time and more than likely is.
Many Haitians in Springfield, Ohio. Many Haitians in Salisbury, MD. Tyson Foods has a chicken processing plant in Springfield, Ohio. Perdue Farms has a chicken processing plant in Salisbury, MD. I strongly believe both Perdue and Tyson are behind the scenes supporting the current corrupt US government in having these Haitians secretly transported in for cheap labor.
I disagree 11:44, they are being deposited in cities all over the country, chicken plants or not.
They’re technically legal immigrants. They filled out applications and were approved to relocate here. That’s what they’re supposed to do. Just because they’re not white doesn’t make them illegal immigrants.
