JD Vance did very oddly assert just the other day that he’s ready to take over for Trump.

Hey, hey, Jr. RFK, How many kids did you kill today?
The thing is that during Covid the GOP realized that even the threat of death from a virus wasn’t enough to make people in their camp question the dear leader. That’s why Joni Ernst felt so comfortable saying, “We’re all going to die for heavens sakes.”
She is eligible for day passes to leave unescorted at that facility.
And the cash on hand to travel to rescue damsels in distress? Has he paid the women from Georgia whose lives he destroyed, yet? And why couldn’t the NH police cover this job?
This seems like an awfully dubious story about why he was in NH.
Of course they are. Ugh. Just like the junk mortgages. They’re buying storage units of crappy t-shirts for 40x their value and then they’ll demand government assistance when they can’t turn a profit.
I like that guy. Though I hope he knows how to do Senate stuff. Other than that, I’m a supporter.

Democrats or whatever random Independents need to take up the mantle of passing a law that renders all NDAs entirely null & void if any criminal activity is involved. And allow the people who signed them to keep ALL of the money they were given when coerced into signing.
No. She’s just stone cold evil like the rest in Trump’s cabal.
Apparently JD Vance told an audience that he’s ready to take over as President yesterday. I thought that was quite bold on his part, but maybe he has good reason to say it.
Everyone deserves to be themselves most everywhere especially when they’re at school assuming they’re not cheating, stealing, violent or otherwise intent on harming others.
WTF is wrong with you? The J Edgar Hoover people are dead. But even that FBI included Mark Felt who was Deep Throat and helped go after Nixon’s cabal.
I understand why you feel that way which is why my comment was directed at the people who thought they were doing good, but were a part of a machine that has had very real problems for decades. They are confused. I’m trying to give them a heads up because they could help to fix the system.
Her brother must be very busy these days.
The GOP are sticking with the “we’re all gonna die” tag line. They’re just adding “and we’re gonna kill you” on many other fronts including but not exclusive to HHS, DHS, ICE, FAA, and The Pentagon.
I think it’s worth noting that one of the central obsessions within the gun culture is about the tyranny of the federal government creating a police state or militarized rule within the country. So far, those same people support fed invasions. They will lose their arms soon.
That’s not true, but you are case in point why they need to start rethinking the issue & get real about certain failures. I say this as the kid of a public defender. There are cops & prosecutors who are seriously crap, but not all are. There are very honorable people in the LEO arena. But too few.
The genuine do gooders previously at the FBI & DOJ who are mystified about why Americans don’t trust them ought to understand that ignoring the the Epstein corruption, the US gymnastics horrors, the Catholic priest predation, & the Ohio wrestling predation are a big part of their cred problem.
I’ve found some solace in watching movies and TV from the 60s, 70s, 80s, & 90s when America was moving forward rather than self destructing.
Well maybe in the long term, but in the near term there are people like Stephen Miller who have already gotten people killed. Including unborn babies.
Why weren’t you on this afternoon? It was confusing and never explained.
Finally.
Babbit broke through the glass in a door with the intention of leading an attack on the Speaker of the House of Representatives among others. I’m not sure that characterizing her death as unfortunate is fair given the threat that she posed. No one forced her to take those actions. She was warned.
I’ll also note that in reality those Republicans have been a small minority ever since the 1980s. Which is why the Senator I’m talking about opted to not to run again after Reagan won.
I interned for one of those sensible Republicans in the early 1980s. His family helped found the Republican Party. One of his last amazing public political acts was to endorse Obama over Bush. Then he died. Obama is talking about ghosts. Those people are long gone.
I have also always thought that the blunt truth of those tales should be told and not softened as has been the case in the modern era.
I reacted based on my study of the original tales. Not the article.
We agree. I’m just saying that if they replace RFK, Jr. with some ten year old like “big balls”, they win the game of deflection in the public debate. We know that the agencies are defunct under GOP rule. We ought to let them keep their boogeymen so we can limit their public harm.
Since Trump and the Republicans would nominate someone as bad or worse, I’d vote for keeping RFK, Jr. because he’s lost so much credibility that most people won’t believe his BS. We need to be realistic. The Republican plan is to kill these agencies.
Well let’s just say that without modern medical inventions and intervention, Abbott would not be alive right now. Just a few decades ago a high percentage of people died after knee surgery.
It’s Miss Karo Syrup 2025 ladies and gentlemen!
Don’t tell Musk, Bezos, et al. I’d be perfectly happy to see them set off to colonize either planet and leave the rest of us in peace. My question is WTF is taking them so long to go?
Dude. They’re from the same part of Germany as is a part of my family. I bet you haven’t even read the original fairy tales not filtered through a Disney lens.
Well, having studied their original tales without censorship, it’s clear that a portion of my ancestral people were very dark indeed. But they be always known that. Trump is not an outlier in Germanic culture.
Trump will just put someone else in who is as bad or worse. At least if RFK, Jr. sticks around the vast majority of people will not believe a thing he or his minions say.
A day late and a dollar short.
If when you say “y’all” you’re responding to my comment, the parallels between the Nazi economic takeover in Germany & what we are seeing now apt. This is a fascist economic model we are seeing built in quick fashion. Socialism should deliver to “The People”. US Govt is taking from the people now.
As a life long sailor, I’m just going to say that Trump is a moron. Oh, and you know had he been playing king when milling power was often delivered by windmills, I hate to think how that would have gone.
OK, repeat after me, “Elected Republicans are NOT caving. They are ‘ALL IN’ in this effort to destroy our American democratic republic”. They aren’t hostages. They are enthusiastic & dedicated accomplices. When DJT goes, they will keep going. They are not sympathetic rubes. They are criminals.
They want the weak to die.
I think it’s Stalinist and Fascist economics. Not socialist, imo.
Many in the Democratic leadership are freaking idiots. Need to change that up.
These people are just as crooked & corrupt as he is. They are all in on destroying America & our democratic republic. Self respect is your bias. They are proud of the wholesale destruction they are doing & they love DJT. He will go one day, they will stay. Don’t give them the benefit of the doubt.
I’m thinking that the Trump DOJ is soon going to start to try to skip the grand jury process soon. They’ll just abduct and disappear more people, murder them, and like Pinochet just pretend that it was an unfortunate accident. Sorry, but that’s where we are headed already.
If y’all were paying closer attention to the fact that many on the right are partly driven by a deep fear that the federal government will take over their communities with arms & military forces, you would not be surprised by this polling result. Trump is doing what the GOP claimed Dems would do.
Complete with two sadistic sons.
But it IS what we are dealing with. Lots of white people out in America think they won’t be victimized, but eventually they will. They’re already organizing to take citizenship away from natural born citizens. And they are chipping away at all of our rights & liberties. Niemoller warned us.
The Netanyahu & the Israeli military have a sicko serial killer interpretation of Mr. Roger’s “look for the helpers”.
Please talk about the fact that over a thousand victims according to their statements were sexually abused and enslaved by more people besides just Epstein and Maxwell. It’s a real thing. Not a conspiracy theory.
In tourist areas where the obnoxious trashy pro pollution state visitors from places like AL, MS, TX, OH, WY, SC. GA, LA, ID, WV, OK, AR, FL need to be picked up after because they suck. Especially the adults, ironically.
Your heroes in the Nixon Administration called my dad & threatened my mom’s & my life because he was doing his job looking at the corrupt money trail. I was about 8 years old. I’m so over this stuff being characterized as “unprecedented”. My dad didn’t back off. These people will do anything.
Garbage mostly discarded by tourists in DC who come from places like Alabama where they don’t know that there are things such as trash cans. The NG are patrolling tourist areas. Alabama needs a National Guard clean up more than most places in the US.
They’re not afraid of him. They’re on his team. They’re “all in”. If he retired tomorrow, they would continue this assault on American democracy without skipping a beat.
I’m as worried about the mercury poisoning in his brain. He really is the Mad Hatter and he shouldn’t even be responsible for holding a tea party.
😢
The scene in the classic film Auntie Mame - Roslyn Russel - about people with braces on their brains is always what I think about the vast majority of political pundits in the US today. The WSJ EB said they “never imagined” what T is doing now. Sigh. 🙄 Lack of imagination is a big problem.
True. I keep trying to tell people that.
Thomas is not as well tolerated now, but at that time he definitely was. Trying to rewrite history isn’t going to fly here. Women got screwed then and now they are getting quadruply screwed because dumbasses of many colors thought his color gave him cred.
Do you have any understanding of the south and the toxic and divisive role religion plays in all of the churches? White churches are super awful, but the AA churches can be just as horrific. And have you ever been outside the US?
The polls and calls to Congress at the time told a different story. His AA support was super high. I watched those hearings wall to wall because I had just quit a job because I had been sexually harassed. I was so disappointed with EVERYONE. People suck. The end.
I don’t think you’re old enough to remember what went on with Anita Hill. I was shocked and dismayed to see that Thomas’ claim that he was being lynched resonated with a huge number of black people. I’ll never forgive Biden for backing off and letting Thomas get to SCOTUS.
No I really am not. I understand the toxic dynamic far better than you could possibly understand. You apparently are blind to the other super toxic division in the mix which is religion. None of this shit is new to me. In fact it’s exhaustingly too familiar.
To be clear, I’m not saying don’t vote for AA candidates. I’m saying don’t vote for a candidate simply because they are AA or female or Hispanic or whatever. Vote for your political vision. If the person running. Their color or sex ought not to be a top concern. Unless you’re an idiot.
I’ve happily voted for more AA and women candidates than most people have ever had the opportunity to. Some have turned out to be terrible. Most not, but some & that’s real. I learned from the mistakes. I was idiotically thinking that because they were not white guys they’d be better. Stupid.
There is only one Clarence Thomas, too. I remember when despite the fact that he was credibly accused of being a sexual harasser, the majority of people decided that it was better to have an AA appointed to SCOTUS than to tank his nomination.
But you do you. Vote for the pro-slavery peeps. Never going to happen for me. I’m also not voting for psycho women promoting policies that fuck women. I’m pro people. I vote for people who are pro people regardless of race. But, again, you do you.
I’m not gonna vote for anyone like Tim Scott who is out there saying that slavery was a good thing for black people. I’d rather vote for the white dude who is not pushing that bullshit propaganda. But too many people think because he’s black he couldn’t “really” mean it. He does.
Artificial Intelligence is actually remarkably stupid based on what I’ve seen from it.
While most liberals don’t believe that Trump can read, I know he can because he’s been reading & responding to newspapers & magazines for decades. He, like Miller among others, read Mein Kampf as a how to manual. Point is that he’s not a tool. He’s ideological. He’s a full on fascist.
Every time I see him interviewed I think, “talk faster, Dude”.
Vance is a compulsive liar and manipulator. FWIW six million Jews and any millions of others were executed by Hitler’s regime and had no opportunity to negotiate. They were simply murdered. Just like what Putin is doing in Ukraine & what Trump/GOP plan to do the good old USA.
Vance isn’t ignorant. He’s just brazenly lying as usual.
Yeah. That’s pretty much it. Ginning up cynicism and resentment to channel the anger and resentment of an army of bitter haters against others is how fascists roll. It’s not that they’re all bad people in that army. It’s partly that they haven’t had any better offers.
If there was a God that cared about good vs evil and defeating Satan, that kid would be shooting blanks out of those supposed “big balls” forever more.
I don’t think you fully grasp the fact that when they say “own the libs” they are thinking total domination. Enslavement type ownership. It’s not a joke to be dismissed as a BS distraction that could never be achieved. They are literally deploying military forces to achieve the goal. Wake up!!!
Yeah. Gimme any number of old seriously liberal white guys any day as opposed to a Tim Scott, Nancy Mace, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, Kyrsten Sinema type moron. People need to stop picking based on color, ethnicity, religion, gender or sexual orientation.
I was told by some that if Harris was elected this would be what we’d see and that Trump and the Republicans would never do such a thing.
People in the NG from West Virginia are more likely to execute DC residents on the streets. That’s the Republican plan. It’s deliberate.
And it is likely that the NG from other states will shoot people dead because DC NG isn’t as likely to murder their fellow citizens as some West Virginia NG nutter might be. That’s exactly why the Republicans are using NG from other states.
Saying seeing someone’s head bashed in by ICE officers is a “distraction” makes anyone saying that sound like a useless asshole.
Is crime really on the rise? FFS just because people are being arrested does NOT mean they have actually committed any crime. Trump got kids in Central Park convicted of a brutal crime that allowed a serial rapist to go free for years & keep attacking. Wake up!!!!
It’s plain old sabotage of the US economy. The GOP insiders will be fine. They get advance notice to divest and they rig the votes so it won’t matter for them. They’re the globalists who aren’t harmed by their sabotage.
Notice he doesn’t say “Republicans”. Notice that he doesn’t say that slavery no matter who the victims are is BAD. His high $ political consultants apparently are unaware that Maxwell described the mostly white children she & Epstein victimized as sex “slaves”.
I’m so over Jeffries. He’s useless.
They don’t. When I saw both Biden & then Harris people - plus surrogates - saying that prices at the grocery store weren’t a big deal because the stock market was good, I knew we were toast. Pol consultants earn millions. They don’t understand that ten cents means a lot to poor folks.
Republicans have been media trained to go ape shit over the dumbest issue Obama wearing a tan suit; while Dems have been trained to characterize a severe beating by ICE officers as “a distraction”. You see what I’m saying? Sigh. It’s okay to get visibly angry in the face of injustice.
I don’t know if they have more info. I’d argue that they are working with less. My parents used to talk about 90s blow dry Dems who were airhead figureheads rather than real fighters. Between Clinton and Obama, the Dems lost their way. We’re paying for that now. Trump is using that to block us.
Given the truly outrageous things we are seeing unfold, checking with a political consultant before responding shouldn’t be anyone’s first move. Pretending like it’s “all cool” is also mind-blowingly stupid. In a house fire to say get out! In a dem house fire they say relax no prob. No bueno.
Every time I see him interviewed all I think is “talk faster”. Does he talk in that halting pace in normal conversations with people? If we had 60 seconds to respond to an emergency situation, he’s the last person I’d ask for advice. Even if he had good advice it would be too late from him. Sigh.
You are talking about performance. Acting. What people trust in political terms is some level of authenticity. Too many Dems these days are media trained by people who are out of touch with real life & real emotional responses. People who think that somebody badly beaten by ICE is a “distraction”.
The best thing would be for all foreign travelers to avoid attending any of the US matches. Only go to Canadian or Mexican venues. FIFA is so fucked up they would never change the plan anyway. They like Trump.
Well, DOJ spread her lies because they are sort of favorable to Trump if you don’t know she was lying. So, that is a big issue, too.
Well there probably is and I suspect that the whole predicate to this search was based on Trump revoking his clearance first and then to go to a judge saying he had secret squirrel stuff in his possession. Neat trick.
Even the vast majority of people who might be “third way” voters see through their BS.
Just take former AL Supreme Court judge Roy Moore as an example if you want the powerful predator’s perspective.
The Trump people are horrible and evil.
It’s modeled on Hitler’s fascist economic system.
The Dem political consultants pushing this “distraction” narrative are insulting to everyone who is being assaulted by this regime. It’s all relevant and awful. They should be fired.
