Biden’s press secretary is Haitian—so now the far-right is accusing her of eating pets

This week, a news story about a woman killing and eating a cat in Ohio set ablaze a conservative claim that Haitian immigrants living in the U.S. are coming to eat people's pets.

Now, conspiracists are targeting President Joe Biden's Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is Haitian.

The conspiracy also posits that Ohio-based Haitian immigrants kill and eat ducks—and MAGA fans have capitalized on the claims to market former President Donald Trump as the savior of the two animals.
