What we know about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio

The internet is rife with debate over an Ohio town, with even Elon Musk jumping in on extreme claims over immigration.

The owner of X, formerly known as Twitter, reposted claims on Monday from a Republican strategist that 20,000 Haitian immigrants had moved into Springfield, and were killing and eating residents’ animals.

“Vote for Kamala if you want this to happen to your neighborhood!” Musk wrote, later sharing an AI-generated picture of a duckling and kitten with the caption “Save them.”
