Springfield resident describes impact of Haitian migrants on community

>> Jesse: WHEN THE BIDEN-HARRIS A ADMINISTRATION ROLLED OUT THE RED CARPET FOR MILLIONS OF MIGRANTS THEY DIDN'T JUST SHIP THEM TO TEXAS AND NEW YORK. THOUSANDS WERE DEPOSITED INTO SMALL TOWNS ACROSS THE COUNTRY LIKE SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, THAT HAD A POPULATION OF 60,000 ON TILL KAMALA IMPORTED 15,000 HAITIANS WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT OUR CULTURE AND COME FROM THE POOREST COUNTRY IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE. VIOLENT CRIME SKYROCKETED 142%. CAR ACCIDENTS SPIKED. ON MIGRANT AND A MINI BEEN SMASHED INTO A SCHOOL BUS, INJURING 20 AND KILLING AN 11-YEAR-OLD BOY. TRASH STARTED PILING UP IN THE STREETS. THE TOWN CHANGED OVERNIGHT. A. >> THIS IS NOT A REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRATIC ISSUE. IT'S AN AMERICAN ISSUE, IT'S AN OHIO ISSUE AND IS A SPRINGFIELD ISSUE. >> SCHOOLS ARE OVERCROWDED. OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM HAS WENT IN THE TRASH, HOUSING IS ANOTHER ISSUE. THE OVERCROWDING AND HOUSING, MY SON HAD TO GIVE ME HIS HOUSE AND MOVED TO ANOTHER HOUSE BECAUSE I CAN'T FIND HOUSING. >> IS THE CUTOFF POINT FOR THE POPULATION HERE. I FEEL LIKE THERE SHOULD BE A NO VACANCIES SIGN RIGHT NOW AND PEOPLE ARE STILL COMING IN. >> Jesse: THERE'S RUMOURS THAT PEOPLE'S PETS HAVE GONE MISSING. >> WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO OUR COUNTRY BY ALLOWING THESE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE TO COME INTO OUR COUNTRY AND LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING TO THE TOWNS ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES. A LOT OF TOWNS DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT. A LOT OF TOWNS DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY ARE SO EMBARRASSED BY IT. IN SPRINGFIELD, THEY ARE EATING THE DOGS, THE PEOPLE THAT CAME IN. THEY ARE EATING THE CATS, THEY ARE EATING THE PETS OF THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE. >> Jesse: ABC SAYS THERE'S NO EVIDENCE PEOPLE'S PETS WERE EATEN BUT PEOPLE ARE CALLING THE COPS REPORTING HAITIANS ARE EATING THEIR GEESE. >> I SEE A GROUP OF HAITIAN PEOPLE, ABOUT FOUR OF THEM, THEY ALL HAD GEESE IN THEIR HAND. >> HOW MANY GEESE DID THEY HAVE? >> THEY EACH HAD ONE. >> Jesse: THE MEDIA WON'T PLAY YOU THAT CALL AND THEY WON'T INVESTIGATE THE STORY AT ALL BECAUSE IF THEY DID THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPORT ON THE DANGEROUS MIGRANT PAYLOAD KAMALA UNLEASHED ON SPRINGFIELD. >> IT'S LIKE LIVING IN A DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE. YOU HOPE YOU WAKE UP AND IT'S 2019 AGAIN AND THEN YOU REALIZE IT'S 2024 AND IT'S THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN DAY AFTER DAY. WHAT'S HAPPENING IS A DISRUPTION OF A SMALLER NEIGHBOURHOODS AND IT HAS NEVER BEEN A RACE ISSUE. IT'S ABOUT CULTURE. YOU'RE ONCE CLOSE-KNIT COMMUNITY HAS NOW BEEN CHANGED AND THERE ARE PEOPLE IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOODS THAT DON'T KNOW AND DON'T SPEAK THE LANGUAGE THAT LIVE A DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE FROM YOU. IT'S GOING TO CAUSE SOME TENSION >> Jesse: THE PEOPLE ARE BEGGING FOR HELP AND HELP IS ON THE WAY. JUST NOT FOR THEM. >> I DON'T KNOW OF A SINGLE HOMELESS HAITIAN IN THIS TOWN BECAUSE THEY ALL GOT VOUCHERS. I CAN SHOW YOU A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN DISPLACED BECAUSE I'M THAT GUY. FOR 25 YEARS I WORKED WITH THE HOMELESS IN THIS COMMUNITY. >> Jesse: THE OHIO GOVERNOR ANNOUNCED HE SENDING MORE RESOURCES TO THE MIGRANTS TO HELP THEM LEARN ENGLISH, LEARN HOW TO DRIVE AND GET VACCINATED. >>> IS HE PUTTING AMERICA FIRST? REMEMBER WHEN DeSANTIS SENT A 50 MIGRANTS TO MARTHA'S VINEYARD. DEMOCRATS CALLED THE NATIONAL GUARD AND SHIP THEM OFF TO A MILITARY BASE. KAMALA HARRIS SENDS 20,000 TO A SMALL TOWN AND THEY LET IT FESTER. >> IS A PLACE CALLED SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, THAT YOU'VE BEEN READING ABOUT. 20,000 ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS HAVE DESCENDED UPON THE TOWN OF 58,000 PEOPLE, DESTROYING THEIR ENTIRE WAY OF LIFE THIS WAS A BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY AND NOW IT'S HORRIBLE WHAT'S HAPPENED. DAY ONE OF MY ADMINISTRATION I WILL STOP THIS INVASION. I WILL SEAL THE BORDER AN END THE MIGRANT FLIGHT. [CHEERING] >> I WILL YOU GET -- I WILL BEGIN THE LARGEST DEPORTATION OPERATION IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. [CHEERING] >> Jesse: MARK SANDERS LIVES IN SPRINGFIELD AND HE JOINS US NOW. SO MARKET, HOW IS IT SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, OF ALL THE TOWNS IN THIS GREAT COUNTRY PICKED TO RECEIVE 15 TO 20,000 HAITIAN MIGRANTS. >> NOT SURE. I KNOW A DECADE AGO, THE PREVIOUS MAYOR AND A LOCAL MINISTER CREATED A PIPELINE TO REPOPULATE SPRINGFIELD AFTER IT'S DWINDLING POPULATION AFTER ONE OF OUR MANUFACTURERS DOWNSIZED. THAT WAS MAINLY PEOPLE FROM MEXICO. THAT PIPELINE EXISTED AND WIN THE INFLUX BEGAN TO BACK IN 20 AND 2021, THEY UTILIZED WHAT ALREADY WAS THERE. THEY'VE BEEN COMING EVER SINCE. NOT IN THE VOLUMES THAT WE'VE SEEN THE LAST TWO YEARS BUT IT'S BEEN A GRADUAL INCREASE. THE NUMBER IS CLOSER TO 30,000. >> Jesse: HOW HAS THAT CHANGED YOUR TOWN? >> NUMBER 1 AS LIFELONG RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN MOVED OUT OF THEIR HOMES THAT THEY HAVE RENTED FOR DECADES. PEOPLE WHO OWN THEIR HOMES HAVE ACCEPTED VERY HIGH OFFERS AND THEN THEY'VE BEEN TURNED INTO BASICALLY DORMITORIES BY LANDLORDS BOTH AMERICAN AND HAITIAN. IS A LOT OF GREED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE. WE HAVE A TEMPORARY STAFFING SERVICE THAT IS PROBABLY EMPLOYING ABOUT 95% OF THOSE THAT HAVE ARRIVED HERE THAT ARE WORKING. NOT EVERYBODY'S WORKING AND PEOPLE WILL SAY THAT. NOT EVERYBODY IS. THE STAFFING SERVICE, THE HOMES ARE USED AS DORMITORIES. THEY SHUTTLE THE WORKERS TO AND FROM THEIR JOBS OR CAN THEY TAKE A PORTION OF THEIR CHECK AND TRANSIT INFO TRANSPORTATION AND CHARGES IT FOR LODGING. >> Jesse: SO PEOPLE ARE FINANCIALLY PREYING ON THESE HAITIANS AS THEY REPLACE YOU, THEY BASICALLY HAVE TAKEN PEOPLE LIVING THERE AND NOW THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO LIVE THERE ANYMORE WHAT ARE WE HEARING ABOUT PEOPLE'S PETS DISAPPEARING, WE KEEP HEARING THAT. IS THAT EVEN TRUE? >> THERE'S A LOT OF VICIOUS RUMOURS FLOATING AROUND. OUR GEESE AND DUCKS POPULATION IS NEARLY DECIMATED AND OUR PARKS, THERE HAVE BEEN -- YOU PLAYED THE 911 CALL. THE CITY MANAGER DENIED IT EXISTED. CHI APPEALED TO HIM TONIGHT ON YOUR SHOW FOR A PUBLIC APOLOGY TO THOSE THAT HE TOLD A NONTRUTH TO. THERE IS A REPORT AND A 911 CALL. THERE WAS A WITNESS, THEREFORE THERE WAS AN INCIDENT IN MY EYES. AS FAR AS THE CATS AND DOGS, I THANK -- I THINK THAT'S SENSATIONALIZED. I WON'T SAY IT HASN'T OCCURRED, I'VE HEARD FROM OTHERS IT HAS BUT NOBODY HAS GIVEN A INFALLIBLE DESCRIPTION OF WIN AND WHERE AND WHO. >> Jesse: WE HEARD SOMEWHERE ABOUT SOME LADY EATING A CAT IN ANOTHER COUNTY, SHE WASN'T HAITIAN. AT GONE CRAZY. PEOPLE ARE SAYING YOU ARE AN ANTI-IMMIGRANT CITY, HOW WOULD YOU RESPOND TO THAT? >> NOTHING CAN BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. WHAT WE ARE IS A CITY THAT ONLY WANTS OUR SAFETY, SECURITY AND SOVEREIGNTY BACK. WHEN YOU HAVE THE INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED A YEAR AGO, WE'VE HAD TOTAL UPHEAVAL BECAUSE OF IT OUR FOOD PANTRIES GET STRIPPED. OUR CLINICS BUDGET WAS DECIMATED AND CLINIC MEANS HOSPITAL IN HAITIAN. OUR EMERGENCY ROOMS ARE OVERRUN. NOBODY IS BEING COMPENSATED UNLESS THEY HAVE CHECKED IN WITH THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND QUALIFIED FOR MEDICAID. THE ROADS IT'S LIKE ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK AND EVERYBODY FEELS... YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO GET FROM POINT A TO POINT B WITHOUT GETTING RUN OVER, RUN INTO OR HAVE AN SUV FLIP OVER IN FRONT OF YOU. AGAIN, THE BAD DRIVING IS MULTINATIONAL. I DON'T WANT TO SOUND LIKE IT'S ONLY ONE GROUP THAT'S DOING IT. I THINK THAT THEY ARE THE MOST IT'S HAPPENING. BETWEEN FOUR AND SIX WRECKS PER DAY AND PROBABLY OVER 50% OF THOSE ARE PEOPLE WITHOUT LICENSES, WITHOUT INSURANCE AND HAVE NO ENGLISH SKILLS. >> MUST BE SENDING CAR INSURANCE RATES THROUGH THE ROOF. ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TELL KAMALA HARRIS BEFORE WE GO? >> SHE'S KIND OF LIKE THAT SPOUSE THAT CHEATS ON YOU AND SAYS SHE WILL STOP WIN ITS YOUR ANNIVERSARY. ALL THE THINGS SHE'S PROMISING TO DO, SHE CAN DO NOW. SHE CHOOSES NOT TO. SHE'S NOT THE ONE FOR THE
