"SNIP............

NBC News: “Springfield is a town on edge. It’s been five days since it was thrust into the national spotlight by baseless — and to many, racist — rumors of Haitian residents killing and eating wildlife and pets, and its economic comeback has been dramatically overshadowed by tensions that once rarely reached beyond city council meetings.”

“The city has been forced to close schools, City Hall and other municipal buildings because of bomb threats and safety fears tied to the rumors, and Haitian immigrants are afraid to leave their homes because of anger directed at them.”

Daniel Drezner: Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are attempting domestic terrorism by proxy.

supported by fellow terrorists' party called the GQP and their allies.

Sane Americans are confronted with GQP's voting suppression's conducted by the party and their judges and justices, media and billionaires.

Vote blue across board.
