JD Vance Roasts Kamala Harris in Minnesota: ‘What Has She Done to Question My Loyalty to This Country?’
"While speaking at a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota, Vance brought up remarks Harris had stated after former President Donald Trump had

picked Vance to be his running mate. The vice president suggested Vance “would be a rubber stamp” to Trump’s agenda and that he would “be loyal only to Trump.”
“I saw the other day, Kamala Harris questioned my loyalty to this country,” Vance told the crowd. “That’s the word she used, loyalty. And, it’s an interesting word. Semper Fi. Loyalty. Because there is no greater sign of disloyalty to this country than what Kamala Harris has done at our southern border. And, I’d like to ask the vice president, what has she done to question my loyalty to this country?”

J.D. Vance Calls Jennifer Aniston ‘Disgusting’ for ‘Cat Ladies’ Clap Back
"J.D. Vance has lashed out at actress Jennifer Aniston, accusing her of a “disgusting” attack for commenting on his description of childless women as “cat ladies.”
Trump’s running mate used an appearance on Megyn Kelly’s Sirius XM show on Saturday to offer a defense of the resurfaced 2021 comments from an interview with then-Fox host Tucker Carlson in

which he referred to Democratic leaders including Vice President Kamala Harris as “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives.” He said at the time, “a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made… It’s just a basic fact—you look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC—the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children.” 
The “cat ladies” slur had prompted Aniston to respond with a post on Instagram to her 50 million followers on Thursday. “I truly can’t believe this is coming from a potential VP of The United States. All I can say is… Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day.” 

Vance went after Aniston unprompted by Kelly. “Hollywood celebrities say, ‘Oh, well, J.D. Vance, what if your daughter suffered fertility problems?’” he said.
“Well, first of all, that’s disgusting because my daughter is 2 years old. And second of all, if she had fertility problems, as I said in that speech, I would try everything I could to try to help her because I believe families and babies are a good thing.” He was referring to his address to the Republican National Convention."

German Publisher Stops All Printing Of JD Vance's Book Hillbilly Elegy
"JD Vance is a marked man. After accepting the nomination for vice president, Vance has been the subject of endless media attacks. Recently, Vice President Kamala Harris even questioned his “loyalty” to the country despite his serving as a Marine in the Iraq War. Yet, one of the most chilling attacks came from Germany where the

publishing house Ullstein Buchverlage has stopped printing the sold-out German translation of Hillbilly Elegy, his 2016 autobiography.
As we have discussed previously in this country, it is the modern left’s equivalent of book burning. After all, why burn books when you can simply prevent their being printed under blacklisting campaigns?
The company cited Vance’s allegiance with Trump and his politics as the reason in a statement to German media:
“At the time of its publication, the book made a valuable contribution to understanding the drifting apart of US society…In the meantime, he is officially acting alongside him and advocating an aggressively demagogic, exclusionary policy.”
German author Gerd Buurmann posted a mocking response that we should be happy that Ullstein had just thrown Vance’s book out of its catalogue and not into the fire – a reference to the notorious Nazi book burnings of the 1930s."

MSNBC Spreads AP Hoax Misquoting JD Vance’s Comments on School Shootings
"MSNBC is one of the latest media outlets to completely warp what Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) said about the tragic school shooting at

Apalachee High School, falsely asserting that Vance callously dismissed school shootings as a “fact of life.”
“That comment that he made right there is another very, very stark example of the difference between these two campaigns — Harris-Walz versus Trump-Vance. They see it, Trump-Vance, as a fact of life,” MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski claimed.
Brzezinski’s framing, however, is completely wrong. In fact, Vance explicitly said that he does not like that school shootings have become a “fact of life,” calling for increased security.
“If these psychos are going to go after our kids, we’ve got to be prepared for it,” Vance said. “We don’t have to like the reality that we live in, but it is the reality we live in. We’ve got to deal with it.” Breitbart

Vance Rips ‘Disgusting’ Dana Bash for ‘Inciting Violence’ Charge
"Senator JD Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that host Dana Bash was “disgusting” for saying both he and former President Donald Trump are inciting bomb threats in Springfield, Ohio.

Host Dana Bash said, “Sir the mayor of Springfield, Ohio, Rob Rue said, ‘All these federal politicians that have negatively spun our city, they need to know there hurting our city and it was their words that did it.’ Before Donald Trump talked about eating dogs and cats on a debate stage, it was you, senator, who first elevated this baseless rumor. These are your constituents. So why are you putting them at risk? By continuing to spread claims about Haitian immigrants, despite officials in your state saying that there’s no evidence and pleading for you to stop?”
Vance said, “First of all what’s putting the residences Springfield at risk, which was a town completely ignored by the American media until Donald Trump started surfacing some of these concerns is that they can’t afford housing. they can’t afford health care. The schools have been overwhelmed. The hospitals have been overwhelmed, and they’re over well and because Kamala Harris allowed 20,000 Haitian migrants to get dropped into a small Ohio town of about 40,000 people. And it’s completely overwhelmed the services.”
Now you ask, why have I talked about some of the things that I’ve been talking about?” he continued. “Let me just say this my constituents have brought approximately a dozen separate concerns to me ten of them are verifiable and confirmable, and a couple of them, I talk about because my constituents are telling me firsthand that they’re seeing these things. So I have two options, Dana, I can ignore them, which is what the American media has done for years to this community or I can actually talk about what people are telling me.”

JD Vance event at Pa. restaurant spirals into chaos after manager briefly turns away pol despite dozens of supporters waiting inside
"Pennsylvania favorite Primanti Brothers is scrambling to avoid blowback after turning away vice presidential candidate Senator JD Vance when he tried to make a campaign stop Saturday.

The Ohio senator was initially stopped at the doors of the shop Saturday afternoon while attempting to make a campaign stop – as staff said they were not given advanced notice. A manager of the store initially turned the campaign away – despite dozens of people waiting inside for a chance to meet the candidate.
After being turned away at the door, Vance addressed disappointed and outraged supporters. “[The manager] just freaked out a little bit because there were a lot of people and she didn’t want to make her restaurant part of a campaign stop,” Vance said in the parking lot outside the 90-year-old business.
The junior senator from Ohio also made clear that Primanti Brothers is still on his good side and attempted to shield the small business from any ire."

JD Vance Makes 'Toxic Masculinity' Great Again After Hearing Woman Scream at North Carolina Rally
"Vance was in Greensboro for a town hall-style campaign stop that also featured former professional racing star Danica Patrick

interviewing him, with the Senator also taking questions from the audience. While Vance was of course critical of the Democrat ticket, one moment during the event stood out from the rest.
As Vance was listening to someone talking, a woman could be heard behind him letting out a scream. Vance was immediately on alert and got up to see what the problem was, asking if she was okay. Moments later, he quipped, "Kamala Harris built this platform behind us, that's what happened" before again asking if she was okay.
"We doing okay, ma'am? We good?"

Vance Destroys ABC News Anchor for Downplaying Immigrant Gang Violence
" JD Vance appeared on ABC’s "This Week" Sunday morning, during which Martha Raddatz attempted to downplay concerns about Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment complexes in Aurora, Colo.
The conversation took a turn when Raddatz tried to brush off the issue by labeling it as “a handful of apartment complexes,” but Vance wasn’t having any of it.
At the heart of the exchange was Raddatz’s pushback on Donald Trump’s remarks about violent gangs in American communities, which the mayor of Aurora, Colorado, has downplayed. Raddatz couldn’t quite get her narrative straight, however.

“He's making these statements that the mayor is flat out disputing,” Raddatz said of Trump.
But Vance, quick to catch the spin, responded: “Well, Martha, you just said the mayor said they were exaggerated,” to which Raddatz attempted to cover herself, by saying they were “roughly exaggerated.”
Vance immediately pointed out the flaw in this dismissal: “There's gotta be some element of truth here. And, of course, President Trump was actually in Aurora, Colorado, talking to people on the ground. And what we're hearing, of course, Martha, is that people are terrified by what has happened with some of these Venezuelan gangs.”
And that’s when Raddatz really stepped in it.
“Senator Vance, I'm gonna stop you because I know exactly what happened,” she claimed. “I'm gonna stop you. The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts apartment complexes, and the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns. A handful of problems.”
And that’s when Vance pounced.
“Only, Martha, do you hear yourself?" he said. "Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs, and Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’s open border.” Vance’s frustration was palpable as he pointed to the broader issue of America’s border crisis and the consequences of millions of unvetted migrants entering the country. "Americans are so fed up with what's going on, and they have every right to be. And I really find this exchange, Martha, sort of interesting because you seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs."
Vance landed the final blow, sarcastically quipping, “A few apartment complexes. No big deal.”
Clearly desperate to move on, Raddatz then pivoted to "women and abortion."

Vance to Comedian Theo Von: U.S. Must ‘Have a Military Response’ to Fight Drug Cartels
"Trump’s running mate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) told comedian and podcast host Theo Von that the United States needs to “have a military response at the southern border” to fight the drug cartels

that are killing around 70,000 people a year by trafficking fentanyl into the country.
After being asked on Von’s This Past Weekend podcast why the fentanyl crisis is so bad in the United States, Vance explained the breakdown of how it works, saying that the drug cartels operate like “any business” that has “a manufacturer, a wholesaler, and a retailer.”
“You can’t make fentanyl in a trailer in somebody’s basement. It’s not like meth. It takes a really complicated, pretty sophisticated pharmaceutical process,” Vance explained.
“We know that a lot of it, maybe even most of it, the Chinese are making — Chinese companies, not necessarily the Chinese government, but they sure as hell know about it — and then they bring it in primarily through the southern border, and the Mexican drug cartels are like the wholesalers,” Vance said. “And then it makes it to the street level.”

“We are seeing, in action, the effect of Kamala Harris’s policies. Did anyone see the jobs report that came out this morning? While Kamala Harris goes out there and brags about the economy being great, we’ve got Michigan families who can’t afford the price of groceries, and importantly, over the last month, our country lost 28,000 private sector jobs.”
