Springfield is my hometown (I've lived in PA since 1995). It's a complex community that was left behind when industry changed/left, but it has made great strides to reinvent itself. There is a BEAUTIFUL Frank Lloyd Wright home as well as a whole host of new businesses. I was just home last week to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday and found much joy in Springfield. Thank you for shining a positive light on Springfield ❤️
This, Jill, is the story of many towns and cities in the US. Former mining and logging towns out west have lost their sources of income as well, and have had to reinvent themselves. I can only hope that we, as Americans, remember that we are all immigrants to this land, unless we are native Apache, Cherokee, Cheyenne, Hopi, Navajo……..
I have always held high that we formed a country that was BUILT on refugees and disparate immigrants mixed with the First Nations (if I might borrrow from our sister country Canada)…a people (my people) that their OWN COUNTRY dismissed BUT look what we BUILT TOGETHER!!!! In our effort to build a more perfect nation….we have a ‘spice rack’ of talents and intellect and heart!
It is so important to shine a light on these atrocities. Many of us do care and are doing what we can for the immigrants in our communities. This moment will be remembered as a dark time for the US.
I believe our country benefits from diversity!!!! It proven I would like to have no racism of any kind. People share and build relationships that are precious and we all learn so much about each other! It’s POSITIVE AND HELPS US GROW AS HUMAN BEINGS!!!!
I can envision, in the near future, how the atrocities towards the Immigrants in this country will be a lesson not to be forgotten. Frankly, the entire nation should be embarrassed by this!
What you have just shared with us is WHY I am glad that we have experienced journalist not tethered to the ‘compliant and acquiescent’ legacy news but have an alternative platform!!! Think if of the ‘editting’ that would have occurred! Think of the time limits forced on you had you still been confined by the ‘new’ legacy news!
If there were a god, they wouldn’t be getting shipped off to Haiti where violent gangs reign and barely enough food. These are good people, who came legally and given back to their community! We are sending them to death and killing Springfield as well. Could be that god is an evil demon! I can understand that.
God gave us free will, which means we have a choice. His Son sacrificed himself for our sins for a do over so to speak. It was written the wicked were destroyed by flood and next it would be by fire which could mean the heat of fire (sun). There are clues also when mankind's end will come when he turns back to his wicked ways and follow the ways of Satan. Those that believe in God, Jesus, and Angels, why do they forget Satan and the angels (Demons) that followed him when cast out, never mention Satan for man's inhumanity to mankind? I am curious.
Sprinkle some fairy dust, make- believe and karma on it, your statement would be just as absurd. Besides, if there were a god it’s obvious an evil demon that starves little children and animals, kills everyone, 90% of the time that death is in misery, often in agony. That’s what you adore! Come to me with nonsense and fairy stories and I will disrespect you. Leave me alone with your voodoo or I will report you for harassment. I find this “god” baloney repulsive!
Heard a monk say once, "Our sin is that there is suffering and we don't care. All other sins pale in comparison". Thanks for caring and leading by example.
Terry, you seem happy and free now as a journalist on SubStack and I’m glad for you.
I have a divers family and I’ve worked with a large diverse group of people…white, Mexican, Vietnamese, Black and Indian. A lovely bouquet adding beauty to life.
This is another step towards Project 2025’s goal. If we don’t get in their way there will be 2 types of people in this country—the oligarchs and their slaves. This is not fair to the immigrants who have tried to do what they need to do in order to attain legal status and citizenship. People will start to care when AI takes over their jobs and the only jobs available are slave-like labor.

Have family and friends in the area. Love Springfield. Love the people.

I am going to love listening to Terry completely unfiltered!!🤗🤗
Say it, Terry! Out Loud!
I have always held high that we formed a country that was BUILT on refugees and disparate immigrants mixed with the First Nations (if I might borrrow from our sister country Canada)…a people (my people) that their OWN COUNTRY dismissed BUT look what we BUILT TOGETHER!!!! In our effort to build a more perfect nation….we have a ‘spice rack’ of talents and intellect and heart!
We were taught to be proud that our Country was a "melting pot" of people from many different countries.
It is so important to shine a light on these atrocities. Many of us do care and are doing what we can for the immigrants in our communities. This moment will be remembered as a dark time for the US.

Also a time when complacency and GREED TAKE OVER!!! BRINGS TO LIGHT THE COWARDS AND CRIMINALS IN WASHINGTON!!!!!

Really appreciate your reporting, and your heart, Terry.
I don't think the conservative justices feel beholden to their professed judicial philosophies any longer.
This may be a very astute observation.
Thank you Terry for sharing this most important story. Springfield is a good area with hard working families. God’s blessings to them all.

Terry, thank you!!! So glad you're independent so you can help fight for democracy!

I like that phrase! 🌹
It is unconscionable what is happening to these people, families, and communities. Senseless.

This is the commonsense and practical overview and reporting we need. I thank you!
We are witnessing Nazi Germany in the United States, this is how it started! I didn’t know that there was so much hatred in America😔

We need to crush Miller’s dream of being Goebells with his Gestapo, our ICE terrorizing people. Is it anything else than his hate that fuels him?
