Trump tapped into a gold mine of meme publicity. People care more about their pets than they do other people.

We identified a social media post, dated August 25, 2023, with a short video depicting what appear to be two skinned cats on top of a blue barbeque. “Yoooo the Africans wildn on Parkwood,” reads the text, referring to Parkwood Drive. The video then pans down to two live cats walking across the grass in front of a run-down fence, with a voice on the video warning: “There go a cat right there. His ass better get missin’, man. Look like his homies on the grill!”
We spoke with the author of the video, who asked to remain anonymous but confirmed its time, location, and authenticity. He told us that he was picking up his son last summer, when he noticed the unusual situation. “It was some Africans that stay right next door to my kid’s mother,” he said. “This African dude next door had the damn cat on the grill.”
Journalist Chris Rufo provides video evidence that seems to confirm Ohio cat rumors
Here we've got hard proof, confirmed by journalist Chris Rufo, the man who helped bring down the DEI presidents at Harvard and other Ivy League school's this year, that migrants in Ohio are indeed eating cats.

EXCLUSIVE: We have discovered that migrants are, in fact, eating cats in Ohio. We have verified, with multiple witnesses and visual cross-references, that African migrants in Dayton, the next city over from Springfield, barbecued these cats last summer.
The video is from Dayton, Ohio, half an hour outside of Springfield, and it shows an African migrant cooking cats on a charcoal grill.
Our investigation begins in a run-down neighborhood of Dayton, Ohio, the closest major city to Springfield, about a half-hour's drive away. We identified a social media post, dated August 25, 2023, with a short video depicting what appear to be two skinned cats on top of a blue barbeque. "Yoooo the Africans wildn on Parkwood," reads the text, referring to Parkwood Drive. The video then pans down to two live cats walking across the grass in front of a run-down fence, with a voice on the video warning: "There go a cat right there. His ass better get missin', man. Look like his homies on the grill!"
We spoke with the author of the video, who asked to remain anonymous but confirmed its time, location, and authenticity. He told us that he was picking up his son last summer, when he noticed the unusual situation. "It was some Africans that stay right next door to my kid's mother," he said. "This African dude next door had the damn cat on the grill."
So, this is not Springfield. They aren't Haitians. However, these are new migrants in Ohio who have no problem grilling and eating neighborhood cats.
This is wild, y'all. Absolutely wild.
Rufo explains further how he and his team verified this story. How they researched the area, the poster, and all the details to confirm the authenticity of the video.
To be clear: this single incident does not confirm the particularities of Trump's statement. The town is Dayton, not Springfield; cats alone were on the grill, not cats and dogs. But it does break the general narrative peddled by the establishment media and its "fact checkers," who insisted that this has never happened, and that any suggestion otherwise is somehow an expression of racism.
It takes only a single exception, however, to falsify a hypothesis, and the logical next step, for any honest broker, is to ask if it is happening more often, and elsewhere. It is not implausible. Many developing nations, including the Congo and Haiti, have traditions of animal sacrifice or consumption of what Americans would consider household pets. And if this occurred in Dayton, where the migrant population is relatively small, it could be going on down the road in Springfield, where it is relatively much larger.
Just had a farm neighbor with a barn cat that had a litter of 6 I believe. Cats are everywhere out here. They're a living mouse trap. Don't need to be cared for out here if you don't keep them in the house. They just eat mice and go back to the barn.

He told us that he was picking up his son last summer, when he noticed the unusual situation. “It was some Africans that stay right next door to my kid’s mother,” he said. “This African dude next door had the damn cat on the grill.”
We then identified the home by matching it to the visuals in the video and cross-referencing them with the eyewitness. When we knocked on the door of the first unit, a family answered, telling us they were from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and that all of the surrounding units were occupied by other African migrants.
One of the residents told us that her former neighbors, also from Africa, had lived in the adjacent unit until last month. They had a blue grill and the father would find meat in the neighborhood. “Her dad was going to find meat,” she said. “Her dad was going, holding a knife.” The current residents also showed us a blue grill of the same make and model as in the video, which the former neighbors had abandoned after they moved out. There were at least ten cats wandering around the complex and another resident complained that they were breeding on the property.
According to the original witness, whose son was friendly with the neighbors, there was no doubt about what happened last summer. “They was barbecuing the damn cat!” he said. His son’s mother had previously witnessed the family butchering a mammal on the street, but the cats on the barbeque put him in such a state of shock, he felt the need to film it.
Of course, what really grabbed the nation’s attention was the whole “Haitians eat pets” thing. It featured prominently in the initial social media hullabaloo and Trump then agreed and amplified it at the debate. The thing about the claim is that it is, in fact, true. Further, it’s hilariously true simply because of how bent out of shape the Left got over trying to “well AKSHUALLY!!” their way out of having to admit it. But frankly, anyone who has ever done, or knows someone who has ever done, missions work in Haiti knows that dogs and cats are a foodstuff down there. And there’s nothing “racist” about saying so. In point of fact, there are a lot of places in this world where the people do not have the same snuggle-fed attachment to dogs and cats as pets that Americans and other westerners do. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s their cultures, that’s how they do things, and that’s perfectly fine for them.
I’m talking about this “eating pets” thing not so much because it, in and of itself, is that important. Rather, there are a couple of much more salient points that can be made that derive from it.
The first is that it’s an easily understood meme that highlights the deeper fact that the mass numbers of Haitians (and others) being moved into towns all across this country are creating huge - and unnecessary - distortions in all of these communities due to their cultural incompatibility. Crime goes up. HIV cases go up. Americans working for $18/hr lose their jobs to subsidised Haitians working for $9/hr, and then lose their homes and apartments because landlords can make twice as much renting to those same Haitians (whose housing costs are also subsidised by federal/NGO monies). And yes, people see their pets stolen and eaten (they’ve now moved on to horses in Florida), which occurs because you have a mass of people from a different culture who are under no pressure to conform to local standards of behaviour and thus don’t do so.
Haitians and other global South immigrants really, actually, truly do cause problems wherever they settle in large numbers. In Aurora, Colorado and in Chicago (and elsewhere), Venezuelan gangs have literally taken over chunks of territory. Haitians in Springfield have been trying to kidnap peoples’ grandkids (presumably for trafficking purposes). In general, immigrants (especially illegals) tend to be less scrupulous about obeying simple, everyday rules of American life such as getting auto insurance, obeying traffic laws, and the like, and tend to cause more accidents and then be unassessable for those costs. In short, they tend to turn the areas where they settle into portions of the third world countries from which they came. Indeed, I tend to think that the media and other immigration supporters wanted the focus to remain on “they’re eating the pets!!” because that draws attention away from the many, and much worse, problems that the Haitians and other third world immigrants seem to cause wherever they go in large numbers.
