When you lie and say “illegal” immigrants are killing thousands of Americans, you’re fear-mongering. It’s not true. It’s not even close to being true, but it’s something Donald Trump keeps saying.
When you lie and claim Haitian immigrants are eating pets, you are fear-mongering.
This morning on CNN, JD Vance got upset for being called out for starting the lie about immigrants eating pets and challenged Dana Bash to bring people on her show who can testify that pets are being eaten. The only problem is, there’s no one who can verify that. Even the person who started the lie in Springfield, Ohio has now backtracked and said it never happened. She’s apologized for it. As for JD, he’s continuing the lie.
This lie is so poisonous that Springfield schools and hospitals are receiving bomb threats. When this was pointed out to Donald Trump at a press conference last week, he didn’t denounce the bomb threats. He said the greater danger was the immigrants in Springfield who are not a threat and are here legally. They are documented.
Then Orange Grandpa said he was going to deport the Haitian immigrants back to Venezuela. I’ll give you all the time you need to think about that.
In addition to the bomb threats, The Ku Klux Klan is now leaving flyers in Springfield. If you ask Trump about this, he’ll probably say he doesn’t know anything about the Klan, except he does. After all, they endorse him and I’m pretty sure the people making bomb threats do too.
Blog note: The reason you’re getting a short blog today is that sometimes I need a bit of a break, and I also want to drink beer and eat chicken wings with my best friend who’s a Dallas Cowboys fan…while we watch my New Orleans Saints beat the Dallas Cowboys. Geaux Saints!

I couldn't care less about football but you do excellent work and are entitled to watch your football game. Keep up the good work trying to show people what trash the GOP has become under Trump.
