Vance wrote on X that “people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn’t be in this country.” Police say they haven’t seen evidence.

Police in Springfield, Ohio, said Monday they had received no credible reports of immigrants harming pets, contradicting a claim by Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance.

The senator from Ohio, as well as other Republican lawmakers and several conservative commentators, have in recent days asserted without evidence that the arrival of thousands of immigrants from Haiti had created chaos in Springfield.

In a post on X, Vance wrote Monday that “people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn’t be in this country.”

    I mean, yeah, I think it’s entirely possible that children are given homework assignments to see what their representatives are posting on official government accounts.

    If “keep that shit on your personal account and off the work computer” is prudish, then so be it.

      Yeah, nobody’s fucking browsing Twitter for homework 😄

      There was a minimum age to use Twitter back then and while I don’t remember what It was, I guarantee that it was higher than the age at which kids figure out how to find porn themselves.

      The filth in the form of lies, bigotry, and bigoted lies that Cruz and his social media team post to that cesspit on purpose every day is MUCH more harmful to impressionable minds than any “what are you doing, step bro?” fare starring consenting adults will ever be.

      Call me a degenerate, but I personally don’t think that defaming all Haitian immigrants is a step up from accidentally liking porn on the work account 🙄
