    Cat from Springfieldwas hiding in the basement.

    An Ohio woman whose police report was used to power racist rumors about Haitian immigrants stealing and eating neighborhood cats has admitted her pet was found in her home, just days after she reported her Haitian neighbors to local police.

    Baseless reports about missing pets in Springfield, Ohio gained national attention after Donald Trump parroted the rumor during his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris last Tuesday.

    “In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs,” he said. “The people that came in, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what’s happening in this country.”
    And you know this got front page news along with Trumps lack of ability to give a comple thought. NOPE.

    Lest we forget, Vance backed him up on Springfield's pet eatin' conspiracy.

    I could be wrong but I think Vance is the originator of the lie.
