The part-time rabbi at the only synagogue in Springfield, Ohio, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that Haitian migrants are disenfranchising the town’s citizens, claiming that two members of his congregation had been “forced to move” out of an apartment complex and injured in a car accident because of the influx.

The Vance campaign pointed to Kilgore and her story as proof that Haitian immigrants were actually eating domestic animals. But it simply wasn’t true. As the Journal reports, the cat “actually returned a few days later—found safe in her own basement.” And Kilgore, who’s a Trump supporter, now seems to have regrets.
