Donald Trump has yet another legal issue to deal with. A Haitian nonprofit organization has filed a lawsuit against him for his false pet eating claims.
As reported by News 5 Cleveland, the Haitian Bridge Alliance has a submitted a claim against the former President and his running mate JD Vance. Their executive director Guerline Jozef expressed their reasoning in a formal statement. “Over the last two weeks, both Trump and Vance led an effort to vilify and threaten the Haitian community in Springfield, Ohio,” Jozef wrote. “Together, they spread and amplified the debunked claim that Haitians immigrants in Springfield are eating cats, dogs, and wildlife.”
The organization’s attorney Subodh Chandra detailed how Trump and Vance’s claims have forever negatively impacted the Haitian community in Springfield. “If anyone else had disrupted public service, made false alarms, and engaged in telecommunications harassment in the manner Trump and Vance did with their relentless and persistent lies—even after the governor and mayor said what they were saying was false, they would’ve been arrested by now,” he said in a written statement. “They must be held accountable to the rule of law in the same way any of the rest of us would be.”
During the recent presidential debate Donald Trump made some baseless claims that immigrants were stealing pets and cooking them. “They’re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they’re eating the cats,” Trump when asked a question about immigration. “They’re eating the pets of the people that live there, and this is what’s happening in our country, and it’s a shame.” JD Vance also promoted the false narrative and would later admit that on CNN that he is not above spreading falsehoods in order to sell in his agenda.
Neither politician has yet to formally respond to the matter. According to the Haitian Bridge Alliance’s website they advocate “for fair and humane immigration policies and provides migrants and immigrants with humanitarian, legal, and social services.” You can read more about their organization here.
