The small city of Springfield, Ohio grabbed headlines during last year’s presidential election cycle when Donald Trump and JD Vance called attention to the negative effects that the importation of some 20,000 Haitian migrants was having on that community. Prior to the arrival of the Haitians, Springfield had been a mostly white city of about 60,000 residents. Parts of southern Ohio have suffered greatly due to deindustrialization and opioid addiction, and Springfield had already experienced a steep drop in both population and income. As one might expect, the Haitians have not been able to heal the city’s wounds.
Last July, I wrote an article that chronicled some of the misfortunes that have befallen Springfield because of the Haitian presence. These included car accidents due to reckless driving, housing shortages, and the costs incurred by the city government and local public schools to provide translators for newcomers who do not speak English. Then, of course, there are the social costs that come with living alongside people that hail from a dysfunctional, low-IQ, and extremely violent society such as the one found in Haiti:
Needless to say, these Haitians have not and will not improve Springfield. They have already proven themselves to be a threat to public safety and a drain on public resources, and there is no reason to expect that to change. Due the very presence of these people in the city, the quality of life for Springfield’s white population will suffer in innumerable ways. It will suffer each time a white resident’s car gets hit by an unlicensed and uninsured Haitian driver. It will suffer each time a white student is bullied or assaulted by one of their Haitian “peers” in the city’s public schools. It will suffer each time a white woman or girl is sexually harassed, or worse, by one of their foreign “neighbors.” It will suffer each time a white parent has to tell his young child that it isn’t safe to play outside, or tell his teenage son or daughter that it isn’t safe to venture out after dark. The list goes on and on.
For more about the situation in Springfield, one should read the excellent pieces by Gunnar Alfredsson, Jim Goad, and Stephen Paul Foster that were published at Counter-Currents last year. Truly, the situation is intolerable and must be remedied as soon as possible.
In my previous article about Springfield, I quoted an April 2024 report by Andrew R. Arthur of the Center for Immigration Studies, which laid out the history of the CHNV parole program. This program, established by the Biden administration in early 2023 without any form of Congressional approval, allowed for up to 30,000 additional migrants to enter America every month from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. To be granted parole, these migrants need an American “sponsor.” However, incredibly, said sponsor “does not have to have any preexisting relationship to the alien.” That’s bad enough, but as Arthur noted:
In fact, a supporter doesn’t have to be an individual at all — “organizations, businesses, [and] other entities” all qualify, and if sweatshops or massage parlors are seeking cheap and docile workers, all they need to do is identify willing applicants who are nationals of those four countries, file the paperwork, and wait for the soon-to-be trafficking victims to arrive.
So, the program is a scam perpetrated by employers at the expense of their own communities, enabled by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Arthur made sure to point out that of these CHNV parolees (386,000 total, 151,000 of them Haitians as of April of 2024) lacked both “ a visa to enter this country” and “a legal right to be here” and that they were “over and above the legal immigration limits Congress has set.”
Such was the state of our immigration system under the previous administration.
But the tide may be turning for Springfield and other localities that have been swamped by migrants from those four countries. The Trump White House is attempting to end the CHNV program, and its efforts were aided by a Supreme Court decision handed down Friday morning. The high court reversed District Court Judge Indira Tawlani’s injunction that sought to prevent Trump from terminating the program. Judge Tawlani had emphasized that ending the program would leave the migrants with only “unfavorable options” which apparently outweighs any concern about the interests of actual citizens.
Judge Tawlani, by the way, was born in India.
In Friday’s ruling, seven of the nine justices sided with the Trump administration over Tawlani, but as Jordan Rubin of MSNBC reported, two disagreed:
Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor dissented. In her dissent, joined by Sotomayor, Jackson criticized the majority for letting “the lives of half a million migrants unravel all around us before the courts decide their legal claims.” She said the court let the government “do what it wants to do” while “rendering constraints of law irrelevant and unleashing devastation in the process.”
One might retort that the Biden administration simply “did what it wanted to do” by establishing the CHNV program in the first place, and “unleashed devastation” on the American citizens in cities like Springfield who were made to live among the migrants. Also, if one president (Biden) has the power to create such a program, why wouldn’t another (Trump) have the power to shut it down?
Should all 500,000 of the CHNV migrants ultimately be removed, it would still be merely a drop in the bucket compared to the many millions who snuck across the border during the Biden-Harris reign of terror, not to mention those who were here illegally long before that. It is also true that this wouldn’t even fully restore Springfield to its pre-2020 demographic profile, as the Haitian migrants were in some cases arriving years before the CHNV program was implemented. Furthermore, even allotting all possible resources toward carrying out Trump’s promised mass deportations would be insufficient so long as mass legal immigration is allowed to continue, and there is no indication that Trump is interested in halting legal immigration.
However, 500,000 new potential deportations is still a genuine step forward, and we should be glad to see that the new administration has taken the initiative to detect and eliminate one of the weapons that was used to inflict harm upon us.
Springfield’s troubles may be far from over, but help appears to be on the way.

I want to be hopeful, but the imports are just the tip of the wretched, black and brown iceberg. I will share an incident that made me sort of happy, though. The Publix I go to generally has some group of young people fundraising out front on Saturday mornings. These are kids that want to go to some baseball tournament or cheerleading camp, whatever. This past weekend was a black kid, mid teens at least, close to 6’, with a bucket in his hand and a box of small bags of cookies at his feet. His Ebonics made understanding what he was saying impossible, but I could tell he wasn’t an import. Anyhow, no one was giving him any money. And that’s the part that that’s unusual. Normally the kids out front of my grocery store have everyone stopping to talk and support. But this kid, nope. And after each person walked past he would say very loudly, “ok you hab a blessed day!”
I used to chuck in a dollar for the effort of even a non… No more. And it felt like everyone else was on the same page. Maybe I’m hopeful after all.
I am as done as you are, and I pray that tens of millions of our people are as finished as we are. The price we have already paid is one we may not recover from. From now on, every dollar, every helping hand, every feeling of compassion and empathy is reserved for the noble White race and the noble White race alone.
At Christmastime year-before-last, some older White men were ringing bells for the Salvation Army when I showed them Salvation Army’s ~10 page training booklet that I found at Renegade Tribune on how Whites are uncurably racist & inherently bad. The men had no idea, & thanked me for informing them so they could donate their time fundraising for better organizations.
Last year, they stationed only black & brown (ESL) bell ringers, with the exception of 1 or 2 obviously mentally disabled White homeless-looking guys. Respectable White people are no longer blindly collecting funds for organizations which seek to malign them!
At a recent Eagle Scout event, someone who had Girl Scouts mentioned that many sell their cookies “online only” these days. I do somewhat miss in-person interactions with schoolkids in my neighborhood. (We’d usually get hit up annually w/ door-to-door World’s Finest chocolates, restaurant gift cards, etc.) Evidently, nobody answers their door anymore.
Until a couple weeks ago, when the black beggars would say “have a blessed day” even when you turned them down, I thought that was a good thing on their part. But then I went into a liquor store and the beggar outside asked for money, I shook my head no, and he said HABD. I thought that was nice as usual, but 2 or 3 minutes later as I left the store, he hit me up again. I was irked, but chalked it up to him not being able to tell white people apart and he thought I was someone different. I ignored him, and as I walked away he said in a carrying voice “Have a blessed day anyway! You hear what I said? Have a blessed day anyway!”
A quick note – the “C” in CHNV stands for Cuban, not Colombian. While some may disagree, Cubans are yet another bunch of hispanics whose good points are completely exaggerated, they are on the receiving end of so many govt handout programs that one loses count, all because they “escaped communism”. Take a look at the book “Cuban Privilege”. It provides an “aha” for folks who haven’t spent much time around these (generally arrogant) people. The fact is that we really don’t need any more Latin Americans, whether they’re Cuban, Colombian, or anything else.
Thank you for the correction. It has been fixed.
I really hate to be crude. But, I will be. Fuck Ketanji Jackson and the rest of her last names and fuck every last illegal invader, especially the Haitians. They must go. If Ketanji cares, and blacks are the most generous as Chicago’s booga-booga-big-man claims, then she can make it right for her precious charity cases.
Did I say fuck them? Okay. Just to be clear.
No disagreement from me. Sometimes harsh language is justified, and this is one of those cases.
Great article! Maybe white people are waking up, and we must save our precious puppies, and kitties from being skewered, and roasted over a fire in a hobo camp. 🙀
Every Bidet junta official who enabled this, as well as every “sponsor” who helped bring them in, deserves to be exiled to Haiti permanently. The same goes for these two Affirmative Action SCOTUS “Justices”.
Nicely put. There is more than enough cultural flair present in our country already. No need to coddle this fearsome foursome of alien countries that despise everything American, yet get fat off of our bounty. We know your country’s are dying and you should return there to hasten their demise. Why do these judges think a full day in court is required for the disposition of immigration cases? Seems like a garrison of clerks could ask simple questions, such as, are you legally present in our country? No. Do you need directions to the exit? No. Adios. No court. No judge. No media coverage. No sob story. Yes or no answer. If you claim to be legally present, show proof. Done.
