SEATTLE - Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance made on Monday a series of false claims related to Haitian immigrants abducting and eating pets in Springfield, Ohio. The city's police department has denied any such incidents have taken place.
The Republican Sen. from Ohio published a video on his X social media account of him at a July Senate Banking Committee hearing, reading a letter from Springfield City Manager Bryan Heck detailing the city's challenges in keeping up with housing for a growing population of Haitian immigrants.
