White nationalist conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer doubled down on her false accusations against Haitian migrants on the latest episode of her Rumble show, Loomer Unleashed. In addition to repeating the lie that Haitian migrants are eating household pets, Loomer also accused them of “eating people.”
Loomer attacked comedian Jimmy Kimmel for mocking racist statements she made on her X account, including one where she wrote that Haitian migrants “eat HUMANS.”
“In fact, Jimmy Kimmel the other night decided that he was gonna make fun of me and he was gonna show my tweet live on air, and make fun of the fact that I was pointing out that these Haitians are cannibals and they’re also eating people’s pets,” she said.
After playing a clip from Kimmel’s show, she defended her accusations of cannibalism by citing an article from India Today about Jimmy Chérizier, a Haitian ex-cop and gang leader. Loomer insisted that Chérizier’s nickname, “Barbeque,” was related to cannibalism or to a practice of burning his enemies alive. (It isn’t.)
“So no, Jimmy Kimmel’s lying,” she declared. “He’s attacking me as a racist, saying that I’m beyond the pale and that I’m a racist and that I’m a terrible person. But they do. The Haitians are eating people. They’re cannibals. Not all of them. But a lot of them are.”
Loomer asked how it’s “racist” to say that Haitians are “eating people” and “eating people’s pets,” and angrily said that Americans “don’t practice cannibalism.”
“It’s disgusting,” she said. “It’s Third World. It’s beyond Third World. I mean it’s like, it’s like for — it’s like for people and, I don’t know, living in the jungle, you know? It’s like — I don’t even know if people, like, living in the jungle do this, right? It’s animalistic behavior. It’s like Stone Age behavior.”
Calling it “crazy” that “they wanna deny that there are Haitian cannibals” and that “there are people’s pets that are being eaten,” Loomer pulled up a video which she said was of a “Haitian migrant barbequing somebody’s cat.”
The video, which was reposted online by far-right propagandist Chris Rufo, was originally taken in 2023 by a man from Dayton, OH. As CBS News reported, the video “shows what appears to be animal carcasses on a grill,” and the “man filming the footage alleges, without evidence, that they are cats.”
