For the second day in a row, schools in Springfield, Ohio, are being evacuated because of apparent threats fueled by Trump and Vance's high-profile racist fear-mongering. The school district evacuated two elementary schools and closed one middle school.

We're a week away from Trump claiming that the Democrats are importing cannibals from Africa to eat Republican voters aren't we?

And for the second day in a row, the New York Times and the Washington Post pretty much ignore the stochastic terrorism that JD Vance and Donald Trump are waging on that town. Abysmal journalism.

And sadly, this can happen almost anywhere in America where we have many vibrant immigration pocket communities. When I lived in Northern Indiana, we had the largest Burmese population in the states. There should be legal consequences for the harm this horrible behavior has caused. #voteblue

Trump got one thing right. Springfield used to be a nice town, and now it isn't. Of course the problem isn't immigrants. The problem is prominent racists using the town and the people who live there to try to scare other racists into voting for them.

All of this to score cheap points, and terrorize people from the poorest country in the Americas, who are in Ohio doing the work no one else wants.

"Whether it's making school shootings and bombings easier or stirring up irrational fear of strange foreigners and their weird diets, we pledge that we won't rest until you can't rest. Republicans: We're The Party of Collateral Damage"

There needs to be an investigation into who started these dog-whistling rumors. Then that person responsible for starting those dog-whistling rumors should be required to reimburse the Springfield (OH) School District for whatever damage their dog-whistling rumors have caused.

Unfortunately, many people won't blame Trump and his ilk for this, they'll blame the Haitian immigrants. "This wouldn't be happening if they'd just stayed where they belong."

Helpful guide for confused Trumpists: if you call in bomb threats, you're the baddie.
