In this shocking episode, we dive into how Springfield, Ohio, became the epicenter of the heated immigration debate in America. From horrifying stories of pet cats being eaten, to reports of Haitian immigrants arriving in busloads, Springfield residents are left in disbelief. One local even recounts how immigrants were seen grabbing ducks by the neck and beheading them in public parks. Amidst the chaos of Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment complexes, the fentanyl crisis killing 200 Americans daily, and the disappearance of 300,000 children, the situation in Ohio is a grim reflection of the larger border crisis. This is the tragic reality that’s pushing the immigration debate into new, unsettling territory.
