Representative Clay Higgins has taken Donald Trump and J.D. Vance’s threat against Haitian immigrants to the next level.
Republican Representative Clay Higgins made a racist attack on Haitians Wednesday, referencing several racist tropes and the debunked pet-eating conspiracy from Ohio.
In his post on X (formerly Twitter), the Louisiana congressman said, “These Haitians are wild. Eating pets, vudu, nastiest country in the western hemisphere, cults, slapstick gangsters … but damned if they don’t feel all sophisticated now, filing charges against our President and VP.”
Higgins was apparently upset that a Haitian American nonprofit organization took advantage of an Ohio law allowing citizens to file affidavits for criminal offenses, and filed charges against Donald Trump and J.D. Vance for spreading the debunked rumor that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, captured and ate pets, ducks, and geese.

Yeah because it doesn’t matter. Republicans are a coin flip to win the house, win the presidency, and are already likely to win the senate. Why would they stop being awful?
Moral consternation on the left doesn’t change the fact that half the country appreciates and endorses this kind of rhetoric. And the party that makes these comments is quite possibly going to run all three branches of government in a few months and already run the Supreme Court.
We’re losing. In many respects, we’ve already lost. We’re just going to lose more.
Defeatism is the first step towards losing. Personally, even if you assume that will happen, I’d suggest looking up guns that use NATO standard ammunition and getting some practice in while you still can.

Die kneeling then, not my problem.

Yes, everyone that thinks you’re a sweaty tryhard is a bootlicker. Blocked, you’re dull.
