“My dog ate my homework and then an immigrant ate my dog”

In September 2024, a Springfield, Ohio pet-eating rumor was that Haitian immigrants were eating people’s pets (cats and dogs). A new spin was provided on the jocular student homework excuse, “the dog ate my homework.”
 
“My dog ate my homework and then an immigrant ate my dog” was posted on Facebook by Mike Sites on September 10, 2024. “Trump: ‘My dog ate my homework.  Then immigrants ate my dog’” was posted on X/Twitter by Sarah Larchmont on September 12, 2024.
 
“My dog ate my homework and then an immigrant ate my dog” (shown on a drawing by cartoonist Jonny Hawkins) was posted on X/Twitter  by Juanita Broaddrick on September 15, 2024, and this received over 107,000 likes.

My dog ate my homework and then an immigrant ate my dog.
(Love how Trump was fact checked during the debates - Springfield City Manager said there was no such issue in Springfield).

Gov. Walz: Apparently Trump has ‘concepts of a plan.’ I taught high school for 20 years. Every one of my kids had a better excuse for not doing their homework than that
