Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced that he is sending law enforcement and state into the city of Springfield following reports of unrest created by an influx of Haitian migrants.
According to combined media reports, the Ohio State Highway Patrol will assist Springfield police with traffic issues that officials blamed on Haitians who do not follow local traffic laws. DeWine, a Republican, is also allocating $2.5 million over two years to provide Springfield with increased healthcare access through the county health department and private healthcare institutions.
Springfield is a city of roughly 59,000, but it has been the focus of the federal Temporary Protected Status program where 15,000 Haitian migrants have been relocated. In recent weeks, news reports of increased crime created by the migrants began to percolate across social media, and a video of municipal hearing testimony by Springfield homeowner who said she was being forced to move because homeless Haitian migrants were creating an unsafe community went viral.
Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who grew up near Springfield, cited crises in housing and social services created by the migrant influx in a July congressional hearing.
“In my conversations with folks in Springfield, it’s not just housing,” the senator said. “They’re trying to build 5,000 new housing units, which is a very Herculean task in a town of about 55,000 people, but it’s also hospital services, it’s school services. There are a whole host of ways in which this immigration problem, I think, is having very real human consequences.”
Ohio Attorney General David Yost announced his office is reviewing legal options to stop the federal government from “sending an unlimited number of migrants to Ohio communities.”
“This is absurd – Springfield has swollen by more than a third due to migrants,” Yost said. “How many people can they be expected to take?”
DeWine agreed with Yost, adding, “I want the people of Springfield and Clark County to know that as we move forward, we will continue to do everything we can to help the community deal with this surge of migrants. The federal government has not demonstrated that they have any kind of plan to deal with the issue. We will not walk away.”
There have also been wildly conflicting reports of Haitian migrants stealing and eating domestic cats while also killing and eating geese and ducks from local parks. While some residents have attested to such acts – their concerns were repeated by a number of Republican politicians including former President Donald Trump – local police and officials have vehemently denied such crimes have occurred. When pressed on the subject, DeWine dodged the question by saying, “As far as other things that might be occurring in the community, I would refer to local officials who have spoken out.”

Jumping to conclusions is exactly what rump and vance and yost and deweenie have done … GOP FOOLS and Followers of the Wanna Be Tyrant and Dictator rump who spewed the same crap while getting skewered during the debate … no proof or confirmation from local police and officials … Just vance pushing his agenda.
The locals also said the Haitians are here legally.
Get the whole story out, not just what you want to here.
Death and Bomb threats closed schools yesterday because the Fools will believe anything rump and vance says.
Between j jordan and jd vance it’s sad to say the Fools are still making this state a laughing stock.
How Stupid and Ignorant these left wing liberal jerks are!
What gives Senile Biden, Marxist Communist Kamal the right to have allowed millions of illegal undesirable Aliens the right to walk right through the Southern Border and By Rafts and Boats to our coastal towns!!?
What gives them the right to invade a beautiful impeccable Peaceful Town in Ohio and turn it into third world ghetto!!!!
I know Haiti well, I’ve been there over 100 times during a 40 year span. I saw the Extremes of Far Right Baby Doc Duvalier to the Communist Aristide.
While most Haitians in the USA are Good law abiding people, there exists a huge Gang presence in Several Cities here.
Its not a problem of Racism in our small towns, its a Cultural invasion being pushed down the throat of Americans in
these “ sanctuary cities and towns” by Communist Kamala and her Pimp Obama.
Why the hell should our towns be forced to House and feed and school all these people??
Most of these illegal immigrants regardless of what countries they have come from go from the Donkey to the Car overnight.
NO MORE!!
MASS DEPORTATION FOR ANY ALIEN THAT ENTERED THE USA ILLEGALLY!!!
To all the Hollywood Elite, all Millionaire Actors and entertainers and Obamas that are Condoning all this Chaos-
You all have Mansions and Properties that can accommodate alot of these illegal immigrants.
Start housing and feeding them and let them perform Vodoo ceremonies in your backyard!!!
You said it Best … “Right Wing” Baby Doc … just like Rump, and the GOP.
Wants to be a Dictator.
Wants to take away your Right to Vote … What’s wrong with the MAGA Right and Fools who aren’t hearing what he’s saying.
How conveniently you Forget Exactly What He’s Going to Do to All of Us. He WANTS the Immigrants Flooding this Country, Otherwise he would have told Limp Wrist Mike Johnson to Pass the BIPARTISAN Border Bill in early 2024 … instead he Politicized the Border as that’s all he had to Cry about.
He gave Tax Breaks to his pals instead of making life easier for the Middle Class.
Yall hear whatever that Traitor says and still thinks he’s your Savior.
Keep the damn church out of State.
Just buy his dying stock, ugly tennis shoes, pitiful bibles and stoooopid playing cards ( I know they’re a fantasy like all he says and does)
The immigrants do all the work your Lilly Butts Wont Do … and then some.
People will not believe until one day it will became their personal problem. “Onstrich taktics”.
And this people go to church on Sundays and called themselves Christians full of shit. You can only have a miserable life with pain, diseases and frustrations, perhaps NO sex at all to spell all your poison here. Make it A good life!!
