Governor Mike DeWine of Ohio appears on television to defend Haitian TPS holders, arguing they work in manufacturing and healthcare — including caring for Alzheimer's patients — and that removing them would not be in Ohio's or America's interest [1] — Vince Coglianese "Ohio Governor Mike DeWine argued that Haitians on TPS are integral to Ohio's healthcare and manufacturing sectors, calling the TPS terminat…" 49:50 . He urges the Trump administration to reconsider. Coglianese doesn't buy a word of it. He notes that the earthquake triggering TPS occurred in 2010 — 15 years ago — and that 'temporary' was always the operative word. He sardonically suggests that if 350,000 talented Haitians have been building American communities, they can now go build Haiti. He also invokes Stephen Miller's argument that Haiti is unsafe for Americans but not for Haitians, and mocks the left's sudden abandonment of their 'keep families together' rhetoric.
The Supreme Court's TPS ruling means roughly 1 in 5 people in Springfield, Ohio — a city of 58,000 — lost their legal status overnight. MSNOW frames it as a crisis. Coglianese frames it as a restoration.
According to reporting cited in the episode, approximately 350,000 Haitians currently hold Temporary Protected Status in the United States.
Roughly 10,000–15,000 Haitians on Temporary Protected Status live in Springfield, Ohio, making up approximately 20% of the city's population of 58,000.
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine argued that Haitians on TPS are integral to Ohio's healthcare and manufacturing sectors, calling the TPS termination a mistake and urging the Trump administration to reconsider. Coglianese called the argument weak and dishonest.
Coglianese noted the Haiti earthquake occurred in 2010, arguing TPS protection linked to that disaster has long since outlived its intended purpose.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin went on national TV and told Haitians they could apply for green cards, visas, or other legal pathways to stay in the United States. Coglianese found this deeply wrong: his job is to protect sovereignty, not offer legal roadmaps to people the administration is trying to remove.
