Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance has dug in on his claim Haitians in an Ohio community are abducting and eating pets, even as the state’s GOP governor and other officials insist there is no evidence of such behavior.

But the salacious claim was easily debunked.

“The Vance campaign provided the Wall Street Journal with a police report to prove their claims about cat-eating Haitians in Springfield. The WSJ spoke to the woman who filed it, who said she later found her cat alive and well in her basement. She also apologized to her Haitian neighbors.” Justin Baragona posted to X with a link to a story in The Wall Street Journal.

    I went to a bar with some cousins last night and the Tigers game was on some of the TVs. Half the commercials were political ads. There was no sound and CC wasn’t on but sweet Jesus I was so sick of it. I’m trying to avoid watching sports in general just because it’s gonna be nothing but the same crap for the next 2 months

      …and the text messages, and the canvassers, and the snail mails, and the billboards (if you live where they are allowed), and and and.

      Wish it would all just go away, I’ll vote how I want despite all the waste of media.

      Politicians should get some sanctioned debates and interviews on CSPAN and that’s it.
