IN TRUMP'S FASCIST AMERICA:
Ohio MAGA candidate Bernie Moreno calls for deporting Springfield immigrants - Rawstory
Terroristic threats continued against Springfield officials and public buildings over the weekend and into Monday. In the midst of them, Republican U.S. Senate candidate Bernie Moreno called for the protected status of legal Haitian migrants in Springfield to be revoked and for them to be deported back to their violence-riven country.
The city in southwestern Ohio has been the center of a national political firestorm after former president Donald Trump in last Tuesdays debate repeated a debunked claim that Haitian immigrants who have flocked to the community over the past five years were stealing neighbors pets and eating them.
The claim has been debunked by public safety officials, Gov. Mike DeWine, and even one of the first people to post it on Facebook. She said she misunderstood what a neighbor told her about an acquaintance of a friend whose cat was missing.
Other GOP officials, including Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, have amplified rumors that Black immigrants to Springfield have been killing and eating geese. Officials said there was no evidence to support that claim, either.

Maybe I'm just getting my C countries confused. But I do know that when you see his commercials, he pronounces his name "Marino" so people don't realize that he's Hispanic.

and despite his propaganda of "humble beginnings", he's actually from a rather wealthy and politically connected family.
