Springfield, Ohio Faces Bomb Threats After Trump's False Claims About Haitian Immigrants

The city is under emergency powers as officials debunk rumors, while Trump and Vance continue to spread misinformation.

Springfield Mayor Rob Rue has claimed emergency powers to address ongoing bomb threats and public safety concerns.
Donald Trump and JD Vance's baseless claims about Haitian immigrants eating pets have led to over 30 threats of violence in the city.
Local officials, including the mayor and city manager, have repeatedly debunked the rumors, emphasizing that Haitian immigrants are in the country legally.
The false claims have resulted in school evacuations, increased security measures, and widespread fear among Springfield's Haitian community.
Community leaders, including pastors and mayors from nearby cities, are calling for support and resources to handle the influx of immigrants and the resulting tensions.
