Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) called on Democrats to tone down their rhetoric a day after proudly admitting he spread a bogus story about immigrants “so that the American media" covers the plights of American citizens. In recent days, Vance has propagated the rumor that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio are abducting and eating people's pets.

    He and Trump spread “lies” not “rumors”. The word " rumors " implies that there was some truth to it, and there was none.

      … at least somebody believes there was truth to it.

      This is where we have to remind everybody that Vance admitted lying about this.

      I hope your state shows Republicans just how much you love it when Republicans throw the state under the bus to fuel their political ambitions.

      They just need to get ahead of the curve.

      Take random ass rumors from social and claim they are spreading it.

      Not like the pet eating but really crazy conspiracy shit.

      Or make them apologize for thier lies and project them JUST as they start spouting lies.

      Edit:

      Perfect!! Just make Trump solve the drought in cali by turning the faucet!. Either AI or Photoshop that shit like wheel of fortune!

      And Trump is out here doing a fascist coup with fascist thugs, saying he’s going to be a dictator on day one, saying after this election “you won’t need to vote anymore”. Then there’s that whole Project 2025 thing. Uhhhh….

    Let me help:

    “Republicans are murdering immigrants in their sleep and firebombing their churches. Get them before they get you!”

    “I’m just joking, bro.” <- Apparently sufficient to avoid prosecution.
