Springfield, Ohio: The SHOCKING Reality of its Haitian Migrant Crisis

Julio now is uh at um in uh Springfield Ohio talking about the um Haitian influx to see what's really going on he's our national correspondent Julio Rosas welcome yeah thanks for having me you bet you got there yesterday uh I got in late Monday night yes okay okay uh so what have you found on the Ducks and the geese and the everything else well I can tell you that it is is an issue that has been raised uh to the city uh for for months uh months before this this got brought to the national attention you last week into into this week um you know I I I can't speak to how widespread it is but it's been enough of a problem that people have been saying hey you know like we we've been seeing this I like I've heard about this can the city look into it and from my understanding is and not just with the duck issue you know the pet issue but overall any issue that residents have been raising over H over the you know 20,000 Haitians being being put into their City a lot of the residents feel that the the city commission is just not listening to their problems or they're unwilling to do anything about it because because there is a lot of money uh being involved in the decisions because you know they they're the these these Haitians they have jobs I mean and so that's why they're able to be here legally and they have protective status wait wait wait wait wait wait they have jobs yes how how did they how did how did they do job placement for 15 or 20,000 Haitians it's through a temp agency called first diversity um it's based here in Springfield um and that's one of the tension points with the within the the the American citizens here is that everything seems to be revolved around accommodating the Haitians first and the American citizens second and that's why they're so upset at the city Commission because the city commission appears that they want to make Springfield seem as accommodating as possible to the Haitian population which includes not towing cars of unlicensed drivers surrounding communities are having to do that um because you know admittedly they're not very great drivers and it's caused you know some people have been killed there have been accidents on the road but but Springfield in the past has just not been willing to tow their cars whenever there's been an accident or whether they've been caught driving recklessly um and so that that's one of the reasons why uh people no longer drive into Springfield the shop I was in Treemont city which is just 5 minutes to the north they no longer go to the Kroger or the Walmart and Springfield they go to the cities up North to do the shopping because they say even being on the road is too dangerous I I got to believe that a town that small I mean uh Kamala last night said it was a midsize town no it's not that's 50,000 people is a small town in America uh and I got to believe you put 20,000 immigrants from anywhere um that are not you know looking to blend in and be part of society I got to believe that has totally changed the culture and if I were a resident I'd be pissed who is the federal government to do this to my town is that the feeling you're getting from people yes um I was at the city Comm so while most people were getting ready for the debate last night I was at the city commission meeting that they have um and a few people spoke uh to during the public comments uh portion where one woman she's 58 she's elderly she lives on the south side of town and the south side of town is where most of the Haitians have been put uh and are living at now and she says she doesn't even leave her house anymore without her gun and her 120 pound pitol because she has been followed she has been groped by Haitian she's been accosted verbally and she said I'm very worried about the women of this town because they're very aggressive towards women um and it's and then you know that was just one person but there there's there's a lot of you know out you know yes the the pet issue is is one thing but even on the housing alone what what's been happening is that landlords have you you say you have a family of four they don't the landlords don't renew their lease with them and then they replace them with up to 15 Haitians they're not even renting they're not even renting the house they're renting beds they're charging them I've been told $200 oh my God a week for just the bed and it was explained to me that the bed never gets cold because there's just a constant rotation of people that use it for those eight hours then they go to work and then they come back and it just starts all over again so you put you know six you know you put you know you know two sets of bunk beds in a room that's six people right that's the way it works in China yeah yeah and so and so the the the landlords are getting a lot more money from this and the and the city isn't enforcing the fire codes so because that's a fire hazard when you have that many people crammed into one you know a two-bedroom one-bedroom place and but you have 15 people inside that's a fire hazard but the city has refused to enforce the codes again to try to accommodate the Haitians as much as possible and American citizens who haven't been able to afford to leave they've ended up homeless that there's there's encampments that have spring up around have sprung up around on Springfield and it's not because of just homeless people as like Los Angeles that are drugged out it's they can't afford anything else and that's their only option I have to tell you uh If This Were happening in my city and uh somebody came to enforce some sort of ordinance uh you know I was building a house and they were like you got to get a permit for this because we have to know for fire safety I'd tell them go to hell when you when you decide to uh have everybody go along with your rules then you can come see me I mean this is this is this is a a a national nuclear bomb that is about to go off people are not going to tolerate this you know I heard a guy yesterday he was a um a vet and he said he was in Chicago and he said what is happening here we have vets on the street I'm barely making it we have homeless people you're doing more for these uh these illegals than you're doing for us and then he said the key words he said you need to do that for us as well well that's Universal everything uh and they're pushing us into this this is that you can not push these cities to the brink like this this is cled in Piven and the result will be communism if kamla has her has her way this is extraordinarily dangerous what can be done to help Springfield Julio well that's interesting because again during the public uh comment section of the meeting last night I would I would actually say more people uh spoke in favor of just saying well the are here there's nothing we can do about it we just need to work through it as opposed to saying we need to stop accepting Nations um so got to be kidding me it kind of appears that at least you know from you know there there's a sizable amount of people who have just resigned themselves to to this new reality um and it doesn't seem like and you know obviously that's just one snapshot of of the community but it but I also I also think that people are afraid of speaking out on the issue because because of the national attention and just because of the the environment that we're in they're they're afraid they're going to be called racist they're afraid they're going to be called bigoted and all this stuff and you know it's a small town right so everyone knows everybody and so I I think that I think that's part of the issue but but that in of itself is is a big problem because if you're not going to speak out about it then the lest voices are going to get their way right um so in terms of what could be done for Springfield I mean Nothing's Gonna Change nothing's going to change if if Harris takes back the White House and it's not going to be just Springfield it's going to be multiple it's be yeah it's GNA be cities across the country um and so I think it's significant that when I started my reporting On the Border crisis it was always on the border and you know now we're nearing the end end of the Biden Harris term first term and I'm having to do immigration stories in America Heartland every town is a Border Town we been saying that for years now and and at first it sounded a little corny it sounded you know it did sound very political but but but but it but it is it is it is 100% true and it's not just Chicago it's not just New York City it's not just you know Denver it's it is any any town can face this within the next couple of years Julio we'll talk to you again uh maybe tomorrow thank you so much for the update appreciate it thank you Julio Rosas he's uh the blaze media National Court respondent now let me say something you're not going to fix this nothing will change if you just acques if you just go along with it well there's nothing I can do do you see that they're testing you again this is like covid wear a mask six feet apart stay in your house no kids going to school there they know what they could get away with on that now what are they doing they're taking jobs and giving them to illegals without taking care of our own people first and you're just resigned to that nothing will change in this country and you know what I believe Donald Trump was saved by the Lord I believe that was a miracle that he turned his head when you see the picture of the bullet as he's turning his head that's a miracle it's a miracle that that guy got up it's a miracle that that guy got up and said stand your ground fight it's a miracle that that guy goes on stage every day he's actually in the fight and we're going to say I don't want to be called racist that word has no meaning anymore no meaning no words have meanings if I may quote my mother sticks and stones will break your bones but words will never hurt you you've got to stand up if you don't you will get what you deserve you will first become part of the problem and then you will be part part and parcel with the wrong side you know what's right you must stand up
