Summary

JD Vance claimed pro-Ukraine protesters harassed him and his daughter in Cincinnati, but demonstrators say they merely passed him en route to a protest.

Video shows a civil exchange where Vance defended U.S. withdrawal from Ukraine aid, contradicting Trump’s stance on Russia’s invasion.

Critics accused Vance of using his child to deflect backlash over his role in a heated Oval Office meeting with Zelensky.

Protests against his Ukraine policy continue as Russia escalates attacks, with demonstrations held in Washington, D.C., and Europe.

    Despite my… unpopular view on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

    I’d like to say that this is nonsense. His street was closed off with massive police presence yet he deliberately took his kid to confront the protesters when he had many other options.

      This reminds of the way Klan Mom and her pedo side-kick Gaetz acted when they were followed around and asked questions. The way they think it should work is that they get to call liberals [1] any and all names in the book. Also they get to defend the J6 terrorists that they call “political prisoners”, and others should not even be able to be heard in their response to these monsters. And if the opposition IS heard, and they are shouted down, they’ll cry endlessly about it and talk about their “free speech”. Even when assholes like this can get on the likes of Faux “News” nearly any time with one phone call, while their opposition cannot.

      [1] “Liberals”, meaning, anyone that doesn’t have their lips around the shaft of the mini-mushroom.
