When the Trump Administration ended Temporary Protection Status for migrants from 11 different countries, the mainstream media's attention immediately gravitated to only one: Haiti.
It was the numerous problems surrounding the NGO and Biden organized surge of 15,000+ Haitian migrants into Springfield, OH that captured the interest of the American public during the election campaign of 2024.
