  1. A union representative "said she has been having conversations 'that you would never want to have with a parent,' telling them to 'make a plan so that your children can at least stay in safe environments while you may have to go back to #Haiti.'"

    One 58-year-old mom trying to put her kids through school said, "There is nowhere to go in Haiti. There are gangs living in my house in Port-au-Prince."

  3. Some nursing homes ~"cut ties w/ scores of employees in recent days, while others have downsized. One facility...raised its sign-on bonus from $2,000 to $6,000 to attract workers...others explored recruiting replacement workers from high schools...

    "To lose that many employees in one fell swoop is incredibly disruptive...And it's destructive to the residents who have been close to these caregivers for years." 👀

  5. "Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) told CBS News this week that #Haitians helped revive the city of Springfield, where #Trump falsely accused #Haitian #immigrants of eating cats and dogs during the 2024 presidential campaign. DeWine called the decision to end #TPS a 'mistake.'

    "'These are people who have helped
    Springfield really come back. The Haitians ... came there because there were #jobs that were not being filled by other people.'"

  7. "'We do think the Supreme Court decision is going to decimate industries that people really count on because they're largely serviced by #immigrants. That's true of airports,' said Roxana Rivera, assistant to the president at SEIU 32BJ (union), which represents cleaners, security guards and airport personnel on the East Coast. 'It's going to be much more difficult to fill these essential #jobs.'"

  9. I absolutely second the motion. Let the #Haitians come to Canada if they're kicked out of the US. Certainly, the locals and local politicians down there want them to stay. Say what you will about #Trudeau, he was true to his word in allowing 25,000+ Syrians into Canada quickly in the midst of their war.

  13. Some 330,000 #Haitians in #America will lose Temporary Protected Status today—a designation that lets migrants from countries that the government deems unsafe stay. Now, 250 Haitians will be deported each week.

  15. CW: CW - #USPol - Refugee Status BS

    So, crap like this serves several purposes... One, to terrify folks who have lived here -- some all their lives -- after fleeing really bad situations. Two, feed into "#WhiteErasure" attitudes espoused by racist whites. Three, make sure that #SocialSecurity goes bankrupt, as most of these immigrants have been working and paying into Social Security. Basturds!!! #SCOTUSIsCompromised !

  17. The US State Department "currently has a Level 4 'Do Not Travel' advisory for #Haiti and #Syria."

    "Many of the #Haitian #refugees in America have no homes to return to in Haiti."

    ~"Haiti is currently plagued by gang violence & instability, with many fleeing the small Caribbean nation to the #USA for their lives. A top security official and chief of staff to the nation's defense minister was recently kidnapped."

    — Gov. DeWine

    "We are a city that had been in decline for 50 years. When #Haitians arrived, that was the first time we grew in half a century. … (This is) going to hurt #business in Springfield... lead to economic decline."

  21. #MegynKelly then closed up her podcast rant referring to the "the whole cats and dogs thing" with immigant #Haitians.

    #SCOTUS recently ruled that nothing that #Trump or any others in the administration said towards Haitian immigrants in the #USA with #TPS protected status was "explicitly racial," including Trump's previous comments that Haitian immigrants were eating Americans' cats and dogs.

  23. "Go home. Get out!
    We know our country's better than yours...we filled it with our work ethic and our culture and our values.
    You being here only dilutes it for us, those who built it and live it.
    And (more than) half of you people won't assimilate.
    We don't want you.
    We don't care if you're offended.

  25. Feeling bad for all the #Ohio #Haitians that came here to seek safety, esp how they were vilified with false accusations for political gain that started when a stupid person posted something even more stupid on social media.

    May peace follow them on the future journey as the Republicans and Trump Administration detain and remove them from the US. #USPol .

    It's not only racial, but it's also discrimination against class (they are generally poor immigrants receiving protections).

    Trump likes immigrants that can pay big bucks $ for his golden immigration card.

    It seems that it's okay with the Supreme Court's conservative majority that those with power or political pull make baseless derogatory accusations against entire swaths of people of the same #race as long they don't explicitly say that their baseless claims are racial (or perhaps as long as the conservatives of #SCOTUS agree with the claims 🤔).
