Local pastor in Springfield shows off some of the klan literature being left at homes in the city (I have edited the image so it cannot be uncritically shared.) also bold of this klan group to post a phone number.

Has anyone checked to confirm it’s actually their phone number and not yet another form of targeted harassment?

Me neither, but I’d be wary about assuming any information on that flyer was presented in good faith. I could easily imagine the assholes including the phone number of a local synagogue or something just to ensure they’d get lots of phone calls from would-be Klansmen or angry citizens calling to yell at Klansmen.

That photo of the man carrying two geese? He was moving them out of the road after they’d been hit by a car. In Columbus, OH not Springfield.

According to White Pages reverse phone lookup, it’s a cell phone registered just over the border in Kentucky. Could be a burner phone to compliment the P.O. Box.

Someone should find the sleaziest online auto insurance quote thing and put those in as the address and phone number. Perhaps a few other places too

Is there a place online to get quotes for extended warranties?

Apparently it’s all the internet’s fault and not anyone who could actually, you know, be called out by name. /s

A large number of Haitians migrated to Springfield, Ohio, before Vance was even born. The idea he was talking about these issues before anyone else is ludicrous.

Also, if he feels all these points he’s making are so relevant and important, why did he feel it necessary to, by his own admission, invent a lie and keep repeating that lie, with no concern for how many people are still being hurt by it?

If Vance wants to talk about the issues why won’t he talk about the fucking issues?

Maybe If He starts talking about the problems, someone could ask Him what He would do to address the issues.

f*$k that.

for-profit hospitals pulling up stakes in rural towns because there’s not enough profit margin. the undermining of teachers and public education at every turn. doing nothing to rein in wall st’s buying sprees of rentals and single family homes. blocking all attempts to lower housing costs and other essential needs like food, healthcare, and education

these things are the gop’s entire playbook ( and sometimes also the democrat’s ) – so, now someone is going to blame black immigrants who are trying to build a better life for themselves and their surrounding community… for decades of political and corporate greed?

anybody espousing white madness like that can f right off
