🧵 #JDVance is even more dishonest than Donald Trump. The old guy lies constantly, but often he can't tell the difference between fantasy and reality. He regularly thinks he's in some other state.
Vance is a calculating deceiver who has twice admitted that he lied for political advantage.
Speaking to CNN today, Vance said that he and Trump "create stories" which are untrue, like the lies about Haitians in Springfield.

This is what it looks like when a news outlet thinks the job of a journalist is simply turning on the microphones.

ABC showed it could be done. Now:
"CBS News is clearly indicating it wants to take a step back from the heat generated by calling attention to misleading statements by candidates." #debate
But sure, JD. don't incite...
"slavery"... "assassin..."
Via Rupar (who has vid):
#JDVance claims Kamala #Harris is taking us down the path to slavery just moments after denouncing inciting rhetoric"
And this:
JD Vance: "With close to 500 patriots in the state of Michigan in this building right now and outside, I'd like to see an assassin try to come in this room."
To repeat:
IS EVERYONE ELSE AS HAPPY AS I AM ABOUT THIS TIMING? Especially after #JDVance’s election denial at the #debate.
"January 30th 1933 dawned cold and clear in Berlin as Adolph Hitler took his oath of office and promised Germans he would uphold the constitution. It would ultimately take him less than 30 days to dismantle it. ...
All you need to end a democracy is a leader willing to suspend or end the Constitution and a supporting cast large enough to allow him to do it.
Republicans have both."

JD Vance is so out of touch he thinks…women celebrate abortions?
KamalaHQ:
Rogan: Roe was the law of the land and all of a sudden that had been taken away and you have these men trying to dictate what women can and cannot do with their bodies
#JDVance: Yeah, yeah... but you have women who go too far and try to celebrate it
Rogan: Very few do that
A friend posted the link to X, but I won't, but this is from July 15, 2024:
#JDVance: “We need a De-Ba’athification program in the U.S....We should seize the administrative state for our own purposes. We should fire all of the people...every single middle-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state. Replace them with our people.”
#Romania’s #FarRight candidate, championed by #JDVance & #ElonMusk, detained by police
Romanian prosecutors have opened a #criminal investigation into #CălinGeorgescu, the far-right, Pro-#Russia populist who surged from almost nowhere to win the first round of the country’s cancelled presidential election last year.

Somewhere Barbara Streisand can heave a huge sigh of relief. It will henceforth be known as "the Vance effect."
#JDVance met privately Tues morning with #LauraLoomer, a #FarRight crackpot whose criticisms of some of the #Trump admin’s hires have led to their ousters.
Vance met alone with Loomer at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, according to a person with knowledge of the meeting. It was not immediately clear what the pair discussed.

#JDVance is traveling to #LosAngeles Friday to meet w/ #Marines & visit federal command centers.
Vance’s office did not release a reason for his visit. But #LA has been the epicenter of #protests against the #Trump admin’s #MassDeportation ops.
Trump deployed #NationalGuard troops to LA this month in response to the protests. #California sued for a #TRO to stop the deployment, but a federal appeals court ruled in Trump’s favor Thurs night while litigation continues.

Protesters tell VP: “You don’t get to hate us and enjoy us”
VP’s family trip to #Disneyland draws protests as #immigration raids continue and a judge blocks ICE tactics in LA
by CK Smith, July 12, 2025
"Vice President #JDVance’s visit to Disneyland with his family over the weekend drew protests and political backlash as critics pointed to the timing, like the sweeping immigration raids across #SouthernCalifornia and a federal court ruling rebuking the administration’s tactics.
"Demonstrators gathered Saturday outside the Grand Californian Hotel and along Disney Way, waving U.S. and #MexicanFlags and holding signs that read '#NoVacationsDuringDeportations' and 'You don’t get to hate us and enjoy us,' according to a local station. One protester told reporters, 'I would tell him to go home. Get the hell out of here.'
"The protest followed days of intensified immigration enforcement actions, including ICE raids at farms in #VenturaCounty where about 200 people were detained and one man died in custody. Just yesterday, U.S. District Judge Maame E. Frimpong issued a ruling that blocked ICE from using 'roving patrols' and racial profiling in the #LosAngeles area. She ruled those actions likely violated the Fourth Amendment and that detainees must have access to legal counsel.
"Orange County Supervisor Vicente Sarmiento told City News Service he would only meet with Vance if the vice president addresses local fears, saying the raids are 'terrorizing residents and shuttering our businesses and making people live in fear.'
"Critics say Vance’s decision to vacation in the state the administration frequently denounces isn’t just tone-deaf — it’s political hypocrisy in action."
