Former President Donald Trump has announced that he plans on deporting a large concentration of Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, if he wins re-election in November and defeats Kamala Harris.
During a NewsNation interview on Wednesday, Trump revealed that he would remove the migrants’ temporary protected status (TPS) and initiate the deportation process. He noted that he plans to keep his word on carrying out a “large deportation” campaign aimed at removing the millions of illegal immigrants who took advantage of Biden’s open border policies.
“It has nothing to do with Haiti or anything else. "You have to remove the people, and you have to bring them back to their own country,” Trump stated.
“Springfield is such a beautiful place. Have you seen what happened to it? It’s been overrun. You can’t do that to people. I’d revoke [their protected status], and I’d bring [the migrants] back to their country,” he continued.
Donald Trump said he would “absolutely” revoke temporary protection status for Haitian migrants in order to have them removed from Springfield, Ohio, in an exclusive interview with NewsNation's @AliBradleyTV.
Trump previously attempted to revoke the TPS program during his last administration for migrants from Haiti, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Nepal, and Sudan.
His attempts, however, were unsuccessful, as the United States District Court for the Northern District of California stepped in and blocked the federal government from changing the migrants’ protected status for five years.
Currently, the Haitian migrant community in Springfield is estimated to make up around 15,000 to 20,000 people, putting a strain on city resources to accommodate the rapid influx of migrants in an otherwise small, quiet town.
According to the Congressional Research Service, over 200,000 Haitian immigrants have applied for and been approved to receive TPS services.
The city of Springfield saw the national spotlight after unconfirmed reports surfaced claiming Haitian immigrants were killing and eating pets, as well as local geese and ducks, which Trump highlighted in the presidential debate against Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I’m sitting here, I’m riding on the trail, I’m going to my orientation for my job today, and I see a group of Haitian people, there were about four of them, they all had geese in their hand,” said a 9-1-1 caller in Springfield to a police dispatcher.

Many Springfield City Council attendees and TikTokers who live in the area also corroborated those claims.
Additionally, local residents have claimed that the Haitians do not understand American road or driving laws, and that many of them have been causing dangerous accidents.
“These Haitians are running into trash cans. They’re running into buildings. "They're flipping cars in the middle of the street, and I don’t know how like y’all can be comfortable with this,” said a local resident during a city council meeting on August 28th.
It is unclear how the migrants have enough money to purchase these vehicles, but many Haitians who have been living in Springfield for a year and a half or more have reportedly been able to find jobs and have been given enough government funds each month to purchase homes or rent out apartments.
“The slave revolt that brought Haiti independence indeed relied on voodoo, the New World version of ancestral African faiths. To this day, by various scholarly estimates, 50 percent to 95 percent of Haitians practice at least elements of voodoo, often in conjunction with Catholicism,” The New York Times reported.
After the “unconfirmed pet-eating” reports surfaced, a member of GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance’s (R-Ohio) team reached out to Springfield City Manager Bryan Heck about the reports, to which Heck responded, stating, “I told him no." There was no verifiable evidence or reports to show this was true. I told them these claims were baseless.”
Although the pet-eating claims are still unconfirmed, Vance said he intends to uplift the concerns of local residents in Springfield who miss how their city once was prior to the influx of third world foreigners.
“We don’t blame the Haitian migrants for coming to Springfield,” Vance stated. “We blame Kamala Harris for opening the American southern border and inviting 20,000 people to get dropped in a small Ohio town.”

America’s political and military enemies are using asymmetric warfare on us, and we don’t even know it. Their means of attack? Immigration. The progressive vision for this tactic is meant to overwhelm the system, collapse it, and then rebuild. But our global enemies — from Russia to Iran — are using it to destroy the system completely. Thanks to Biden-Harris's mass migration policy, Glenn argues we are at the precipice of another 9/11-style attack. He takes you inside secret meetings in South America that some of the world’s scariest terrorists are attending — like the supreme leader of Hamas and the chief of operations for Hezbollah. Their game plan starts with recruiting Venezuelan gang members, taking them to Iran for “training,” encouraging criminal activity south of the U.S.-Mexico border, and then facilitating the spread of that violence to our own streets in America (like we saw with Tren de Aragua gangs terrorizing citizens in Aurora, Colorado). Donald Trump’s promise of mass deportation of illegal aliens is not racist. It is not heartless. It is — as JD Vance said in the CBS VP debate — common sense. Mass deportation has a long history of working under presidents like Hoover, Eisenhower, Clinton, and Obama. So why the crocodile tears now? Where are the tears for victims of open-border policies in states like New York, Colorado, Florida, and Georgia? The border crisis is no longer some abstract, faraway issue for the U.S. Border Patrol to deal with. It’s a national threat for the entire country. And catastrophe is coming.
“I’m proud to be a Protect Minnesota Orange Star Candidate. Gun violence has disrupted the lives of Minnesotans of all ages and all walks of life, and it’s long past time to do something about it. I will always be an ally in that fight as Attorney General.” (Keith Ellison/Facebook)
“Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is accusing Fleet Farm of violating state law when the retailer allegedly sold firearms to ‘straw purchasers,’ according to newly filed court documents,” ABC affiliate KSTP Eyewitness News reported Monday. “Defendants knew or had reason to know, based on the circumstances of the sales and the information known to Defendants, that straw purchasers were not purchasing for themselves and were buying firearms for others,” Ellison charged, accusing the Midwest retail chain “of violating the Minnesota Gun Control Act.”
“A citizen can purchase traditional rifles and shotguns without a permit. Purchase of a handgun, however, requires a valid permit that will include a criminal background check. Likewise, the purchase or transfer of a pistol or a semi-automatic military-style assault weapon will require completing a purchase/transfer permit,” John Mascolo, Esq. of FindLaw writes. “Applicants for a gun permit in Minnesota must undergo a criminal background check through the Minnesota Crime Information System and the National Instant Criminal Background Check System or NICS. Those seeking to purchase a firearm may seek a permit from their local police chief or county sheriff.”
Is Ellison saying Fleet Farm, which as a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) is routinely audited by an ATF notorious for “zero tolerance” revocations over innocuous paperwork flubs, transferred guns without going through the process? No? Then what’s his beef?
“It’s alleged Fleet Farm sold 13 guns during a 12-month period to a straw purchaser who later pleaded guilty to helping straw purchase nearly 100 firearms,” KSTP explains. “The lawsuit mentions specific firearms used in the Truck Park Bar shooting in October 2021 that left one person dead and another 14 injured.”
And that is Fleet Farm’s fault…how? Does Minnesota law limit how many firearms purchases a citizen can make in a year? It does not.
Curiously, one of the “commonsense gun safety laws” the prohibitionists have tried to enact everywhere, (in Everytown!), is a “one-gun-a-month” law. They do things incrementally, and many would prefer “no-guns-a-month,” but as an aside, a U.S. District judge just held that California’s purchase limitation edict “did not fit within the nation’s historical tradition of firearms regulation.”
So, Ellison is running afoul of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), of Bruen, and more to the point, of the clear Second Amendment proscription that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” And his excuse for going after Fleet Farm is that its retail employees can’t do the impossible and read the hearts and minds of customers, and that it is therefore responsible for not just their criminal actions, but for the subsequent actions of those they deal with.
In truth, he just wants to use the virtually unlimited resources of the state to rob a victim with deep pockets blind through lawfare and shut all gun dealers down, which is par for the course with this character.
When he was in Congress, he was part of a group of Democrat gun prohibitionists who staged a sit-in, which “shut down the House’s legislative work” to demand more citizen disarmament. He and the two were clearly and defiantly obstructing and impeding official proceedings, a charge used to throw J6 Capitol protestors into the federal gulag.
Ellison is a former leader of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, co-founded by Bernie Sanders. And the Caucus (with Ellison specifically lauded) maintains “ties” with the Communist Party USA and “close ties” with another “progressive” group, the Democratic Socialists of America, the domestic arm of Socialist International.
The DSA devoted a page on their website (until they took it down to try to hide it—this link goes to the Internet Archive record, which may load slowly but they can’t erase) to hymns glorifying their “struggle.” The following example should be of special interest, since the people they’re talking about are pretty much you and me:
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping, Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie, And when the revolution comes, We’ll kill you all with knives and guns, Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie
“Fleet Farm has been serving hardworking families since 1955. We’re built on a foundation of Midwestern values. You could say we’re a lot like our customers. We believe in honoring tradition, taking pride in our work and doing what’s right.”
It’s all part of a wider movement to ban not just guns (Ellison doesn’t like the First Amendment any better than he does the second), but to demonize and exclude those with traditional American values. Look at the government and media push going on before the upcoming November elections to conflate rejection of collectivism, immorality, and treason with “white rural rage,” for the DOJ/FBI to portray those Americans as “the greatest threat,” and to condemn “Christian Nationalists” as theocratic Nazis for believing rights are “endowed by our Creator” instead of privileges to be portioned out or withheld by the state.
There’s no room in Keith Ellison’s America for such outcasts. That’s why they’re so desperate to disarm us. And that’s why the government monopoly of violence subversives masquerading as “gun safety advocates” at Giffords proclaimed “We are proud to endorse Keith Ellison for attorney general.”
