Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance vowed Wednesday to deport Haitians who were in the U.S. legally.

During a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, a reporter asked about Vance's recent attacks on Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, who were granted Temporary Protected Status, or TPS.

"So I know you talked a lot about how we need to deport illegal aliens, but I wanted to ask you, the majority of the Haitians in Springfield came under TPS, so they are here legally," the reporter said. "If you become the Vice President under a Trump administration, what will you guys do about the migrants that are already there, since they did arrive legally?"

"Well, look, this is a media and Kamala Harris fact check that I want to clarify and clear up right now," the candidate replied. "And what they mean is that Kamala Harris used two separate programs, mass parole and Temporary Protective Status."

"If Kamala Harris waves the wand illegally and says these people are now here legally, I'm still going to call them an illegal alien," he continued. "And illegal action from Kamala Harris does not make an alien illegal. That is not how this works."

Vance accused the media of "gaslighting us and lying to us" about migrants.

"What is fundamentally illegal is for Kamala Harris to say, we're going to grant parole not on a case by case basis," he opined, "but to millions of illegal aliens who are coming to this country that does not magically make them legal because Kamala Harris waved the amnesty wand that makes her border policy a disgrace, and I'm still going to call people illegal aliens."

"So Kamala Harris says you can't deport people, and then she says, you're also now legal instead of illegal," he claimed. "That is completely bogus. That is straight out of George Orwell. None of us buy it."
