The attack on Haitian Immigrants in Springfield Ohio is not a mistake it is a well designed disinformation campaign against a group of people that the Trump campaign believes he can demonize which will rile up his base of racist people.
Both Donald Trump and JD Vance knew it was not true that Haitians in that town were eating people’s cats and dogs. Never mind that Vance is the US Senator from that very state. But Vance though a Yale Law School graduate deliberately chose to say that the Haitians in Springfield are from Asia- So much for the supposed superiority of Ivy-League education.
The Trump/Vance Campaign is a white supremacist campaign that aims to tap into the most violent elements of the American population to enrage them to the point they will intimidate others from going to the polls or even plant yard signs on their front lawns.
Every action taken by the Republican Party and the Trump campaign is intended to prevent Black people from benefitting from any policy in the United States. They see the data that shows the number of white people dwindling and the number of black and brown people increasing.
The Policy positions that are front and center makes the point. Force women to have babies even if it kills them on the one hand and stop people of color from entering the country on the other.
The bellicose rhetoric about bloody deportations is only a precursor to what Republicans have in mind for the country.
Demonizing black people have always been at the center of Republican policy agenda. They trot out their most heated rhetoric against blacks every election cycle, but none in our lifetime has been as heated and dangerous as this one and with this fascist ticket.
Sadly, there are still Black people who support the Republican Party which sadly is like the trees believing the Axe is their friend because the angle is made of wood.
The Republicans are against Reparations.
Their campaign to do away with Social Security which is [not] an entitlement program is based solely on the fact that older Black people also benefit from it.
They oppose relief of student loan debt by arguing that others in the past paid their student loans debt. Factually, policies change all the time sometimes people in the past benefit, sometimes people in the present time benefit. Their goal is to do as much as possible to keep the chains of poverty on people of color.

Trump’s Project 2025 allies are plotting to rip away Black women’s reproductive health care by banning abortion nationwide and restricting access to contraception and medication abortion.
Their “Project 2025” blueprint includes proposals to require coverage of natural family planning methods and remove requirements that insurance cover certain emergency contraception.”
“As part of their 2025 wish list, conservatives want to overhaul which forms of birth control insurance companies must cover for patients at no cost under the Affordable Care Act. For instance, they have drafted plans to allow insurers to drop coverage of the emergency contraceptive pill Ella, which some on the right believe is an abortifacient.
Women of color advocating for abortion access pointed out that restricting access to mifepristone could worsen racial health disparities. They argue that individuals of color and pregnant people from marginalized communities are more likely to face systemic barriers that limit their access to abortion and other reproductive health care. As a result, they rely on methods like medication abortion.”
(2Some Republican-led states also are targeting in vitro fertilization as part of their wider struggle to limit reproductive rights, tearing open a ‘Pandora’s Box for Black women,’ who are plagued by infertility more than other groups.
roject 2025 wants to take Trump’s disastrous tax cuts — which rigged the economy for the ultra-rich and left working Black families behind — even furtherProject 2025 wants to end Medicare as we know it, and they and other MAGA Republicans want to gut Medicaid and restrict access to affordable health care.
Project 2025 mentions that states should have the ability to impose work requirements on Medicaid, which helps to cover medical costs for low-income people. Several Republican-led states, including Idaho, Missouri, and South Dakota, are already making plans to restructure their Medicaid programs — just in case Trump wins in November. Research shows that mandating work requirements only fuels racial inequality, given the discrimination against Black Americans that exists in the low-wage market. Compared with white Americans, Black Americans are about half as likely to be called back for an entry-level job, meaning that they’d be disproportionately burdened by work requirements. Plus, reforms to Medicaid and other social safety net programs have long been tied to stereotypes that portray Black Americans as lazy or scheming — recall the ‘welfare queen’ trope of the 1970s.
Project 2025 wants to roll back several Biden-Harris administration education policies that help Black Americans achieve equal opportunity, including student debt relief and the Title I Program
Project 2025 advocates for rolling back the Biden administration’s more recent student debt relief efforts, which are rooted in the power that the Higher Education Act of 1965 grants to the U.S. Department of Education to ‘compromise, waive, or release loans.’ The policy agenda claims that the administration is ‘acting outside of statutory authority.’ The administration has eliminated some $138 billion worth of student loan debt so far. This month, it announced new plans that would target the ‘disproportionate debt burden’ faced by Black borrowers, who also would bear the brunt of any large-scale debt regulation reversal.”

Fifty eight 58 percent of African-American children can’t swim. That’s almost double the rate of white children.
African-American children drown at nearly three times the overall rate.
In the north thousands and thousands of pools were built but Blacks were relegated to small indoor pools if any at all. In some municipalities city officials and the police, yes the police, as you would have imagined encouraged white swimmers to beat black when they enter the pools instead of posting ‘whites only signs’, and that’s exactly what they did.
According to Dr. JEFF WILTSE(U.S. History, University of Montana; Author, “Contested Waters: A Social History of Swimming Pools in America”): Cities like Pittsburgh, did not have an official policy of racial segregation at its pools. But rather, the police and the city officials allowed, and in some cases encouraged, white swimmers to literally beat black swimmers out of the water, as a means of segregating pools, as a means of intimidating them from trying to access pools.
Built in 1919, the Fairground Park pool in St. Louis, Missouri, was the largest in the country and probably the world, with a sandy beach, an elaborate diving board, and a reported capacity of ten thousand swimmers. When a new city administration changed the parks policy in 1949 to allow Black swimmers, the first integrated swim ended in bloodshed. On June 21, two hundred white residents surrounded the pool with “bats, clubs, bricks and knives” to menace the first thirty or so Black swimmers. Over the course of the day, a white mob that grew to five thousand attacked every Black person in sight around the Fairground Park. After the Fairground Park Riot, as it was known, the city returned to a segregation policy using public safety as a justification, but a successful NAACP lawsuit reopened the pool to all St. Louisans the following summer. On the first day of integrated swimming, July 19, 1950, only seven white swimmers attended, joining three brave Black swimmers under the shouts of two hundred white protesters. That first integrated summer, Fairground logged just 10,000 swims — down from 313,000 the previous summer. The city closed the pool for good six years later. Racial hatred led to St. Louis draining one of the most prized public pools in the world.
Instead of sharing the pool they drained the pool/.
Trump’s Racist lies about Haitians in Springfield Ohio eating cats and dogs though proven to be a blatant lie, does not matter to Trump, Vance or the Fascists inbreds who follow them. Springfield is every small town in America that used to have white picket fences and homogenous white populations. They are now becoming mixed race communities.
It’s not about Springfield Ohio, it is about every small town across America that has seen racial integration.
Wait.….…what year are we in? Oh, it’s 2024 and this is the conversations we are having. The very same conversations blacks were having before the Civil Rights fights of the 1960s.
Then black men got fat and comfortable. They fight among themselves, disrespect their allies and pay homage to their enemies.
Most of the educated women have figured it out and a few of the men but by and large most Black American are clueless.
